evening all, there seems to be dozens of different makes out there these days, when i bought my first aeg the only available make was tokyo marui. so are there any makes to avoid? are any regarded as the best?

thx

 
Depends what type of gun you are after all brands have good and bad across their range.

Except ares which are just sh*te. Honey badger is the most horrible airsoft gun ever.

 
Tokyo Marui for me make the best pistols.

I would argue that they make the best AEGs too; although ICS, G&P and G&G make some damn good AEGs too.

Best all round aegs TM, Real sword and Krytac. Ics very good internals but externals are a bit marmite.

G&P good externals but internals are average at best.

G&G are ok, good value for money but not a single thing that makes them stand out.

In my opinion anyway but everybody sees things differently.

The price of G&G makes them stand out!!!

I can't quite believe how Classic Army have fell away...their M249 and AUG were excellent.

 
Fair enough, I was under the impression that the CMs were pretty damn good all round.

Not owned one, so only going on reviews.

 
CM's are good value for money

The £150-ish range, well newer revamped CM range goes up p to £200 which is getting on a bit for a polymer AEG

But these new G&G's often come with fet - some are switchable 3round burst.

Think when you start paying near £300 for a G&G (metal)

Then there are others to consider

As for their blowback boxes -hmmm....

A G&G starter M4 is a good gun to start or test the water with

There are others but they offer good value for money CM wise plus a good range of different styles/barrel lengths/ris options

Slightly bias maybe, well yeah very biased I suppose

ICS close second though, ICS M4's seem to have a little better stock motor than lame G&G one

G36 or AK's = JG / Cyma

My own findings btw

Is why I said M4's

Don't think say £120 to £180 you could do much better M4

Cyma and JG though dominate on v3 stuff

But G&G have gone nutz on lots of M4's to tempt ya with wherever floats ya boat

All same stuff really but spoilt for choice if buying a boring M4 CM "everybody has one" G&G

So where do the Systema range of Professional Training Weapons (PTW) fit in? For example their MP5 variant PTW TW5 A4 M90 is about £900. Are they just the most realistic airsoft guns on the market but not necessarily the best?

They are very well made and definitely the most realistic. But for £900 you can build an aeg or gas gun that performs better.Its more suited to serious milsimers.

Or more commonly pretentious pratts.

They are very nice though.

 
was ares known as star many moons ago? i used to have an sl9 made by star. built like a tank.

 
The relationship is convoluted and rather hazy at best, but essentially ARES is what came out of STAR, same line of guns at the time they diverged.

If you've got a good, reliable STAR gun put it on display over the mantle because you have something truly unique.
