Supporters Monty Posted July 12, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've just found (probably) the cheapest GBB rifle ever of the everest. http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/acatal...arbine_gbb.html Looks great, but I wonder if they are made by the company, or the site took out the AEG motor and replaced it with a gas blow back mechanism? Very interesting, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted July 12, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 12, 2012 G&g released gbbr's earlier this year. Not heard much about them so either they aren't amazing or just haven't had much interest with the likes of the recent lm4 from kwa. Price is good though- I wonder what system its built on? Edit: Just been looking around, seems it's not a traditional style gbbr, it's got a gbb gearbox- looks vaguely similar to the ghk one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted July 12, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've seen a few posts by a guy with some very close links to Pro airsoft supplies. It's not like a KWA/WA/WE/KJW with a bolt, as mentioned it's like the GHK conversion gearbox, so quite far off the RS in operation and function. Seems to make a nice enough sound though, and you do have to cock the weapon to fire and press the bolt release when reloading, plus it should be pretty gas efficient with such a small weight moving back and forth. Supposedly very reliable and for the price you've gotta say it looks like a really nice option for a budget level entry in to the GBB rifle world.

Supporters M_P Posted July 12, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 12, 2012 I think the GHK takes WA mags so it's not so much of a problem, and there are so many G&G stockists that mags shouldn't be too hard to come by- that said most shops in the UK don't stock much GBBR stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters TheFull9 Posted July 12, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 12, 2012 Veeery little support for GBBRs in the UK. There was a short burst after the initial batch of WOCs from G&P but that's well and truly died out now. The GHK conversion box needed proprietary mags because the way the mag acts upon the bolt catch in the GBB 'Gearboxes' is different to your WA/WE style systems. From what I've read this new release from G&G uses its' own type of mag that's unique to it, but similar in operation to the GHK. Mags will be the brunt of the cost in buying a loadout for this, seeing as the gun's so cheap but the magazines only hold 40 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they look pretty good (for the price) but the plastic body on it will put a lot of people off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted July 13, 2012 Supporters Share Posted July 13, 2012 I doubt it tbh, the cm range sell in huge numbers, the gbbr obviously won't sell as much but its from a company newer players will recognise well so will probably appeal to them. Obviously older players either know they aren't interested in gbbr's or if they are, they will normally be interested in something more substantial. Its good to see someone catering for the budget market though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
