SgtTalbert Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Personally, I'd go for AEG because (for me) easier to maintain, cheaper and you dont have to be so 'loving'also, id probably spend an extra £50 and get the G&G top tech - http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/acatalog/gen_2_t4_18.html (also comes with a 2yr warranty) so worth the extra £50 (over the SRC imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffreym Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I believe the Novatcombat 416 is the JG one (or cyma, the Chinese clones) which I'd personally go for as they are dependable and solid, and cheap enough so that you can upgrade quite quickly. Bang a ASCU, TBB and new hop and you've got a very solid runner, potentially better than any of the others while costing (relatively) the same.

Supporters sp00n Posted May 18, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 18, 2013 mags are also cheaper with the AEG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted May 18, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 18, 2013 If you want a gbb get the WE- the umarex is vfc OEM so will be shite. If you an aeg,get the Tokyo marui. Of you can afford the marui get the vfc/umarex aeg. NOw just up to you whether you want a gbb or aeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam_G Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 What M_P said. The VFC is a great AEG but i'd be tempted by a TM recoil. BUT the WE 416 is joint top of my wish list with a WE SCAR-L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshcowin Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 as most have said go for the marui or gbbr the we both kick like mules and if maintained will work very well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzer306 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 Ok have been looking online for the best deals on hk 416's, am very tempted by the WE version but cost of the mags are abit too much at £31/38 a pop, the TM have seen, held, fired lovely gun but again way to expensive, so have seen a Umerex CQB version for £319 so it maybe this one. So now just got to way up cost of mags or will it take standard M4 mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted May 22, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 22, 2013 It'll take m4 mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwr3850 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 It will indeed take mid and hicaps but not PMAGS. Although Emags might work I cant remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted May 22, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 22, 2013 Yeah emags do, its just the ribbing at the top of teh pmag that stop it- a bit of filing will make them fit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted May 22, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 22, 2013 Emags don't fit. They should, but they don't. I know someone with the JG one and the G&G one and Emags don't fit into either of them without filing the nubs off the top front.If you're subscribed to Ai magazine then there's a 2 page spread on the Marui 416, it actually turned me off it a bit if I'm honest. It makes it seem like a fair bit of stuff needs doing to it out of the box, battery faff since they're built for NiHms, spring upgrade etc. Not something I'd want to have to do with a £500 gun...I'd probably get the G&G version if you go for AEG.WE is the obvious choice for GBBR. The only thing that bothers me about the G&G is the trades, but I'd probably get a nice paint job done to it to hide them so it's not a big deal and the performance will be very good for a mid range price.

Supporters M_P Posted May 22, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 22, 2013 Emags do fit in the umarex, sorry shouldve put my comment into context. Ed im sure the tm 416 would be perfectly fine ootb on lipos. My scar's been on them for its life, as has my brothers socom, I'd assume Sam's scar has been too. The connector is the issue on the sopmod/recce/cqbr/416 but you can get an adapter to sort it. On the spring, it's not really a necessity either to be honest, they tend to come in a bit hot compared to other tm guns at around 300-310, unless you really want to up it by the extra 35/40 fps or so theres no huge need, range is brilliant stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted May 24, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 24, 2013 Yeah, I've done nothing to my marui 416 (even using the proper batteries!) and it's pretty epic, easily as good as my scar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted May 24, 2013 Supporters Share Posted May 24, 2013 Ooh, actually that's a lie, it's got a 6.03 tight bore fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I think G&G Just released the GK5C reinforced or something.Not sure what the differences are,maybe steel parts in some places? I know it has a new hop unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_W Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 You can wait until you go away to Taiwan to get the G&G, 416 or GK5C, you will probably get a huge discount when you are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
