antipogo Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I've just been through the whole first pistol experience and did a lot of research. After talking out local retailers the main feeling seems to be that WE are good value for what you pay IF you get a good one. The quality control at WE seems to be the main problem. Tokyo Marui on the other hand are well made and reliable if you are ok with plastic. I opted for the Marui Glock 17 and it's been fantastic so far. I even used it as my main weapon for an evening at the Bunker in Pompey and despite it being cold and damp 100 feet below ground it worked flawlessly with no noticeable cool down.

The Socom Gear M9A1 is allegedly a WE clone BUT it defintely has an adjustable hop and most if not all the reviews are saying it works waaaay better than WEs own branded one...

The bunker is my local, do you play there often? I don't suppose you use reusable grenades? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably is then. The WE is a clone of the old TM which has a fixed hop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
