MWS GBBR for Plinking?

[Cr0-Magnon]

Hi All,

After likely retiring from skirmishing (at least for the foreseeable) and getting in to spring airguns for target shooting, I'm still thinking about picking up a GBBR for use in the garden. 

My garden is 35 metres long, well fenced and the neighbours are aware that these aren't real firearms etc. Anyway, as I want a semi-automatic rifle, I'm considering one of the TM MWS range. I of course know they're not shot on shot accurate like an air rifle can be, but in a similar position would you guys go for one or maybe a TM MP5 NGRS?

I've always wanted an MP5 and can't wait any longer for TM to announce a GBB version.

Some might suggest going for something cheaper, but at the end of the day it is a toy and how you play with it is up to yourself, if it is what you want and you can afford I don't see any reason not to.

I love my MWS, it's the second one I've had. I sold the first one after a hiatus from the sport and regretted it so got another one. They're great fun and have loads of parts available if you think like me, tinkering / building might become a bit of a hobby too.

It depends what you want from it also, if you want more recoil or realism in the internals someone more knowledgable than I might recommend something else - I think the GHK is the alternative? Then there's of course shell ejecting options if you're into that,  or there might be cheaper, less skirmishable options out there that are suitable for plinking.

Appreciate the detailed response. I can stretch to an MWS and having had a TM MP7 previously, the best thing about it was that it never so much as even hinted at suffering from cool-down. I stupidly sold it, tried to replace it with a Vorsk VMP, which wasn't terrible but just not on the same level for consistent shooting.
