Unrustle_Thine_Jimmies Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'll do a quick comparison to the Marui recoil shock series. Advantages -Harder kick -Can use AEG mags Disadvantages -Fragile mag/bolt stopper design -No blowback -Sewing machine sound of normal AEGs -Motor sounds like it's in pain(probably a combination of non neo motor+ higher fps spring and recoil weight) -Hop is not as good as marui IMHO.they are pretty decent guns,Internals are a bit average honestly,but pretty strong.Not a fan of KWA AEGs to be honest but this one looks good. Also check out BOLT airsoft recoil series,a more affordable version of both the TM RS and the KWA ERG. The gen 2 versions seem good,but reliability is unknown at the time and the TREMORS style design is a bit worrying,no bolt stop either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters M_P Posted September 23, 2013 Supporters Share Posted September 23, 2013 So Ironic. Though I suppose once broken, at least then you can say it did have the function all along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris555 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 all the reviews i have seen so far recommend it thinking about importing one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted September 26, 2013 Supporters Share Posted September 26, 2013 just buy a marui recoil shock M4A1 Socom, it'll probably work out cheaper and you'll end up with a better gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the adapter and it can also take normal mags. It'll be much better than a rifle from a pretty much non-existant brand and you would also have a decent warranty with it being a TM product bought over here compared to nothing with the Bolt from abroad.

chris555 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Ok didnt know that thanks ill check it out then all the yputube reviews have said needs special tokyo marui batterys ect alsp wolf armouries told me can only use tm mags (trying to con me prehaps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters M_P Posted September 28, 2013 Supporters Share Posted September 28, 2013 Don't bother with youtube reviews, they're pretty much all useless. I have a socom in my hands right now and it takes a normal battery in the handguard. The adapters are quite well known- wolfarmouries probably just want you to fork out for a set of expensive new mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
