Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

AlphaBear said:
I get that with BBs it’s not an exact science. And yes the quality of the plastic and how the bb is created has an affect for sure. What works with one gun may not necessarily work with another. I was talking to a mate who uses Green Devils coz his site dictates their use as mandatory. This brand of BB worked fine in a PTW and a MWS yet in a GBLS it got smashed to bits. Go figure. You’d think the MWS being a GBBR would have been the one that destroyed it.

Absolutely, there is no substitute for testing specific guns with BBs. Have had an AK it the past that was shooting very nicely with 0.28g BBs. Tried the 0.30g of the same brand and was a horror show. Choking and did a number on the hop up rubber.  GBBR versus AEG introduces another variable.

I use Guarder .36s in my MWS and GHK AK they seem decent too

Never thought to try Guarder, will give em a go next time I get the chance. From a bit of searching its claimed by some some that they are BLS OEM. The 1000 bag for the heavier weights makes trying them an attractive proposition.

I noticed that - some of the them were only £20 less than retail. Broken or missing bits. Not really any kind of bargain.

Case in point:

They were selling these new, in black, for £160 in January.

Completely agree... I like PB and their prices & service are good, however the Boneyard is baffling... stuff that's busted/bodged/missing parts and yet charged at full price... mental.

190 quid for a fooched two-tone gun... to quote Tim Taylor from Home Improvement... "Aeuuuhhhhhh?!?!?"

 
So a used, worn and slightly damage pistol for £10 more than retail. Bargain.




 
Oh dear, poor Megan. Insists in the thread about MP7’s VFC is the best ever, then has to sell because she needs the cash.......

Oh wait, there’s no price, actually wants to swap for another gun.

Sorry, not sorry, I’m in a shitty mood this morning ?




 
not so much a dreamer post, but a thing i noticed on an ad and it's not really worth making a new topic:





why oh why g&g did you make the best airsoft mg42 on the market, a true work of art, then ruin it by stamping "made in taiwan" in massive fuckin letters on the side :(

i'm not the worlds biggest markings freak but there are some lines that should not be crossed......

 
yeah, really surprised me to see just how cheap those things are.

not the worst guns out there, it's basically a bullpupped aksu with a rube-golberg fire control setup and m4 mags.

I've not done the maths, but I've got a sneaky suspicion I could buy it all new, & still have change, as this one clearly has seen quite a lot of use, with more than one owner ?

Pretty sure its a first gen version if it was originally front wired. The newer ones (2015 onwards) are rear wired out of the factory along with a sprinkling of other changes.

I quite fancy one. No idea why though.

They make really good quick dmr builds. And hpa them they are good too  . 

 
I picked one up for sons gf, her first gun & so far no complaints, I've used it & other than being a bit fussy with mags, it does what it's supposed to.

Prices s/h vary, seen em for as little as £50, £80-£100 with a couple of mags seems to be the going rate.

 
Nohttps://prefired.co.uk/ads/tm-m4-cqbr-l192a-longsword/

Am I missing something or is this actually worth it? (No it isn't, even with the £109 million win)

Sure all the original bits are there sure there are some select parts involved and the work done by (i'm guessing) reputable techs....but! This looks like a high ball expecting lower end offers. 

Then consider what the person wants to swap for, it a joke right? 

So many things wrong when you also consider fps
