I've read all of this forum's topics on this gun, and hit the internet for a while, is there anything I might not have picked up on that is general knowledge (or may not be gk) about these guns?

 

I found the size comparison pictures.

 

Do these have stock compatibility with TM and other tracer units?

 

 

(When answering don't forget to state whether you refer to the AEG or GBB)

I have the Marui GBB one, and it's great. In terms of size, trades, etc, that all seems correct; the added bit on the valve (embarrassed I don't remember what it's called...) of the mag is good as it allows the gun to fire easier. The stock on the TM one is also good, with little wobble, but apparently it can be broken by idiot midteens hyped up on pizza, coke, and OJ. I have never run out of gas before running out of ammo, but getting two fills out of a mag would be a stretch. I love mine, and used it some on Sunday, but my new PPSH had to take precedence.

Does the shorter barrel and TM lower fps impact its effectiveness (range/accuracy) at all? I've read that full auto can reduce the ambient internal temperature on the GBB to the point it needs to warm up to fire effectively.

 

I've also read that it is noisy (good thing)?

Noise, yes. Quite a bit. Not for stealth, but I like the noise and kick. TM does have their magic hop, and I get pretty good accuracy with it. For whatever reason, this weekend my sight was off target; I guess that's because I zeroed it using .25s, but due to running very low on ammo (in fact, I think I have only about 300 rounds spread around my room now...), I was using .2s, so that was probably why. It was still accurate, just not zeroed.

I was going to buy one or two 50rd mags for my glock this week at £40 each, but I think putting towards a TM MP7A1 GBB might be a better spend.

 

I realised, after researching that the 50rd glock mags are the same size as the realsteel 33rd mags, and the 50s are snail/drum. I really want to avoid hicaps - though I recently saw a youtube vid where someone said "if you remove a high cap to wind it" you, A don't look silly, and B play fairly with the mid/low caps. I really liked that and if I ever have any for an AEG, thats what i'll do.

I run my G17 with two normal mags and one high cap. I have never gotten into a situation where I fire more than about 5 shots with my pistol before I switch back to my primary or something. It's not like I run pistols only and use high caps; I could make due with normal caps easily, but I felt like getting a high cap, so I did. The MP7s are quite nice. Not gonna get the range a rifle will get, but for CQB they are great. And I think the TM's slightly smaller size over the real steel isn't a problem, and probably helps in most cases.

Well, that its a 'hi-cap' is a minor reason i'm using to convince myself to save the money. :P

 

 

 

Alas it is so expensive though (the mp7).

Yes, it is... But a lot of higher end guns are.

The TM mp7 is actually under size compared to the real steel, the KWA version is actually 1:1 scale

KWA is not 1:1

 

The VFC is though

That's said on the FB link; therefore I didn't bother mentioning that too much. Although I did say that the TM was smaller than the real one
