Supporters Ian_Gere Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 Firstly no 1911's or Glock 17-18-19's. Budget: £200 inc total 3 gas mags Requirements max 350FPS with green gas GBB or NBB Gas mags & CO2 mags available Double stack mags, min approx 18rnds I want a pistol which will be good for CQB and those sites which are frightened of CO2, but I'd like to have the option to buy CO2 mags for it at some later date so I can use it as an effective alternative to an AEG on woodland sites. Edit: oops, PLEASE
SgtTalbert Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Option 1: WE P226 with 3 mags (C02 avaliable) Total £120 Option 2: WE XDM with 3 mags Total £123.50 Option 3: WE M&P with 3 mags Total £122I'd personally go for Option 1 (only because I prefer the look of a SIG
Supporters M_P Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 The m&ps have issues so I wouldst go for one of them. WE Sig is probably your best bet, the tm is plastic and Ed says its better than the kwa. These days a WE is your best bet.
Baz JJ Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Despite all you've said, have you looked at the Makarovs or the Lugers ? NATO pistols are so passe'
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted October 1, 2013 Author Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 Yeah the Sig does look good. Have either of you got link/s for gas & CO2 mags? Can't say I like the look of the XDM... too Glock-like by half
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted October 1, 2013 Author Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 The only Makarov that's anywhere near skirmishable, that I've found, is the new Umarex one but that's still 370FPS - there was another one I looked at a while back, but it was 430FPS... have you got a link to a sub 350FPS one? Don't like the look of Lugers much.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted October 1, 2013 Author Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 What is the issue with the M&P then, Marcus?
Supporters M_P Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 Something to do with the outer barrel breaking or something- Ed knows, I was after one but he said that two of his friends broke very quickly. They're also known to fire full auto from time to time as well. I believe that its something to do with the sear design.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted October 1, 2013 Author Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 Ah. That is a bummer cos the changeable backstrap looks like it might help me a lot.
Supporters M_P Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 PX4? I think they have the changeable back straps too. Although it is a girls gun.
Baz JJ Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Action Hobbies did one at reasonable fps but seems to be out of stock at moment. Have you looked at the C96 Mauser (as used by the Man from Uncle) !
DazMK5 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Don't go action hobbies, I live round the corner from it and have had a bad experience there with the owner. He's not very customer friendly, and more or less verbally insults you while he is working! I would go to pro airsoft supplies. Very good customer service! I got a WE 3px4 pit bull. I think it retails around £80. Very nice weight to it, very life like weight infact! It has a very good strong GBB. Mags hold around 24 bbs, and retail around £17. Hope this helps
DazMK5 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 PX4? I think they have the changeable back straps too. Although it is a girls gun. It's not girls gun, I got one . Yeah three back straps to it too.
geoffreym Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 TM hi-capa (I've got a 4.3) from eliteshootingcentre, and 3 mags, only fires 285fps, but it goes for miles and the cycling is beautiful. £200 should get you the gun and 3mags as well as pay for the shipping. Talk to mike cripps, he's very knowledgeable and helpful. I'd recommend using a basic fabric holster or having a kydex made up for it as there aren't any retention holsters made for it.
Supporters M_P Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 With a new frame and slide you can fit them in 1911 serpas (though that is quite a bit of extra expense)
Guest PT247 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 aye the WE GBB Bulldog/PX4 Compact is quite nice, feels great to fire, comes with 2 mags. My first skirmish with it in woodland got me 2 kills.

Seconding this. Fired and messed with one at AirsoftEire and it's a beautiful pistol. Lots of spare parts,seems rather mechanically simple,accurate as f*ck and the kick and cycle is spot on. It's hard and fast,kick is blistering when firing really fast.
DazMK5 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 A friend of mine has hi capa 7.1. The hi capas all seem good!
Supporters sp00n Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 been thinking about getting me one of these >>http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-pistols/asg-mk23-socom-pistol.htm
Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 get the TM one. no, it's not in stock anywhere at the moment. no, I don't know how long you'll have to wait for a TM, but I can guarantee the wait is worth it!
Supporters Monty Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 get the TM one. no, it's not in stock anywhere at the moment. no, I don't know how long you'll have to wait for a TM, but I can guarantee the wait is worth it! Firesupport has over 40 in stock apparently.
Supporters sp00n Posted October 1, 2013 Supporters Posted October 1, 2013 Firesupport has over 40 in stock apparently. which one?
Guest PT247 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 been thinking about getting me one of these >>http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-pistols/asg-mk23-socom-pistol.htm the SOCOM is a very big pistol even without the silencer. I just purchased the Umerax version and didn't like the size so sold it straight on after one use. The version I had was very accurate and had a good kick too but just didn't feel like my kind of pistol.
