Carrel Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Hi, I'm new to airsoft and I'm looking specifically for a rifle which will provide a heavy recoil, I'm currently looking at the G&G GR16 R5 as my primary and the H&K Mk23 as my side arm. The side arm I'm very happy with as it is quite heavy provides perfect recoil and is just an all round awesome looking RIS and properly sized. Although then it comes to the primary. I really like the everything about the GR16 R5 but I just need to have that recoil just to have a bit of a challenge when aiming (not saying it's easy but when automatic it seems like people just trace their line of fire and spray and pray). This is why I want the recoil so that I can have that extra realism to aiming. I found one carbine replica of an M4A1 which had really nice recoil but used gas which it expends after 1 magazine of BB's (bit pointless). If anyone has any suggestions please shout them out. The GR16 R5 I was planning on getting in order to have a long barreled rifle for sniping which I could also attatch a shorter barrel and rail to use in CQB. I'm just not sure now after seeing how it's performs. Don't get me wrong it's a really really good rifle, but I don't want one which I can just hear and feel a single motor pouring out BB's. Just doesn't appeal. Anyone got any advice or recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted June 9, 2012 Supporters Share Posted June 9, 2012 For an electric recoil gun you have a few choices- be aware g&G's only have blowback which is just a moving fake bolt cover but no recoil. If you want an m4 style rifle, look at the Tokyo Marui recoil shock lineup, superior performance and has recoil with a bolt lock too. As for different length barrels that will have not much if any noticeable difference either. You're best to go with a standard m4 length as its the most practical.

paperpirate Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 or one of the W.E. gas rifles, small real capacity magazines a nice loud noise and a good kick too. only downside is the cost a bit to get going with the mags costing about 25-35 quid each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted June 10, 2012 Supporters Share Posted June 10, 2012 Whatever you do, if you're new to the sport, avoid GBB rifles like the plague. If you want actual recoil in an electric rifle then the Tokyo Marui EBB line is your only option essentially; they're not cheap though and be prepared they still only just shake around a bit in your hands, there's not much kick compared to a real weapon. I love all of mine personally just don't go setting your expectations too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
