Tokyo Marui 416 DEVGRU custom carbine

[Callumw95]

Has anyone got a TOKYO MARUI 416 DEVGRU CUSTOM CARBINE M4 ASSAULT RIFLE

If so are they any good and are they worth the money or should i get a MK 2 TRIDENT CRB

[Baz JJ]

Good question.

 

I have the CRB but not a TM AEG so cant compare.

 

Obviously the TM is a lot more money, is representative of a real military weapon but as I understand it uses proprietary TM mags and battery.

 

The bolt locking back on the last round and the recoil are desirable.

Shall i get the CRB and put some upgrades on with money i saved on the gun, if so what upgrades would you suggest

[Baz JJ]

The CRB is a good rifle out of the box. Ive just put largely cosmetic external upgrades on like a sight, foregrip, PEQ and midcaps - Ive not gone inside the rifle to upgrade anything.

Why would you want to upgrade it before you've even got to know how it shoots out of the box ?

[tleigh92]

I'd say MK2 CRB and my mate hwould say TM 416D. Really it's whether you like keymod or not. Another thing is if you want bolt stop functionality with the TM, magazines are expensive. At the end of the day the CRB is too much fun.

Take a look at Random Trashys YouTube channel - He's done a full review of the Marui Devgru. I have one myself, is a fantastic piece of kit. Haven't used the CRB so I can't comment on that rifle I'm afraid

The Marui is amazing If I had the money I dont doubt I'd have got that over my CRB. I think it comes down to if you want EBB with or 20+ rps out of the box and keymod.

I doubt keymod has much to do with the decision making process of for anybody. Most people just use ris rail attached to the keymod not dedicated keymod accessories. Also the Uk version doesn't hit 20rps out the box, certainly not consistently anyway.

 

Simple answer is the crb has faster trigger response and better made internals.

The Marui has better externals and a bolt stop function (the recoil is weak and no more than a gimmick). Original parts are more readily available in the uk as well.

 

Its more a case of do you want to spend £350 or £550 because actual usage experience and quality is great on both.

I would personally go for the Krytac for the trigger response.

Mines hitting 22rps consistently out of the box. Perhaps a one off?

Or it's the US one with the 30k motor.

I was under the impression all Tridents had the 30k motor, they only change the spring for the uk?

Nope the UK trident has a 20k motor. There were some of the Mk1's kicking around with the 30k in them that found there way on to the UK market from the early batches but they weren't very common.

 

Blame Shield for that it was their stupid advice.

That's crap. I'll take a look at the motor tomorrow. If I have ended up with a 30k motor I wonder how that's happened?

[proffrink]

Early imports.

[tleigh92]

Early imports.

Possibly but I bought It two weeks ago.

[proffrink]

Yeh, but shops have stock they buy some time ago. Plus companies in the UK can and do import from places other than Shield - Evike does wholesale accounts, for example. The first run all came through Shield though.

Is it a Mk1 or Mk2?

Pretty sure the MK2 has still got the same 20k motor.

As prof said could be an import or your chrono is dodgy. If I put my gun on an XCORTECH X3200 it gives a higher rps than the chrono on my gun which gives the same readings as a skan.

I know which ones I trust.

MK2, I chrono'd using my XCORTECH X3300W. I'll open it up this evening because I'm genuinely curious now anyway.

Best way to check RPS is to record your gun firing and then look at the amount of peaks in the waveform over a 10-15 second period, no possibility for Chinese electronics fucking you about then. Just your maths!
