Hi guys im new here and very new to Airsoft and could do with a little help on which gun to buy my 2 sons. My youngest lad has found a gun on Zero One which is a JG AEG G39C for £104 (link below) has anyone got any views on this gun or another which is not over heavy or stupid money. My oldest son has chosen a CYMA / Cybergun AEG Kalashnikov AKS74U Full Metal & Wood, which i am led to believe is a decent choice, any thoughts would be very much appreciated 

many thanks Funfrock

The JG G39 is a very solid gun. Almost indestructible internals and reasonable performer. It can take any G36 specific upgrades and its not a particularly heavy gun either. 

You can get side rails for it for additional attachments, a scope rail attachment, different stocks etc. 

It's a great choice for a beginner!

 
Ye both are pretty decent for beginners. That g36c is pretty much the supreme choice for every rental.

 
both are very good value for money. would suggest when you get then give the barrels a clean. 

 
I guess I'l just +3 to all of the above.  Those are perfectly decent choices, and make a nice change from the usual starter M4.

(We've got a nice c-c-c-combo going here, I wonder who'll break it by suggesting a GBB P90)

 
I think that AK is the pot metal one which in time will break if handled rough. Namely the block that holds the barrel and the part that holds the stock.

 
CYMA AKs are excellent - may need a barrel clean and hop rubber change and dependent where you get it from (Taiwangun.com are recommended) a spring change as it will shoot hot.  Taiwangun will change the spring for free if you include the service as part of your order.

EDIT - just read Cybergun - avoid as Samurai states believe the OEM for them is Jing Gong.  Here are some CYMA AKs worth considering that won't break the bank

And an AK74 and AKM just for variety

CYMA AKs are great for their price point
