The only part of my gun that is plastic is the pistol grip and the stock. 

I know it would be heavier, but is there no metal pistol grips for m4 AEG's?

I can't find any, i think it would be sturdier and more authentic.

If you know of any, do tell. :)

I can see no problem having a metal grip that houses an electric motor and wires that are attached to a battery.

 

None whatsoever.

 

Please try it though, you might make this year's Darwin Awards.

i did think that is probably the reason, but i thought someone might have made one with a plastic lining or something

Go to a shooting club, there are plenty of AR15s around to gawk at.

Should be a fair few straight-pull AR’s in .223 I’d have thought.

And dozens of .22 semis.

 

I’ve had my eye on a saucy little .22 HK416 for a while, but it’s discontinued now it seems.

To answer the question, not really, no.

Real M4/AR grips and stocks are not metal either, they're plastic, so no need to worry there.

 

This is also a UK forum, the majority of us do not have real guns :lol:

Would be a cracking little gun, especially if you were to stick subsonic’s/moderator through it.

 

personally my favourite go to calibre is the .243 (not Ackley).

Wouldn't the .243 limit you to SP or bolt though? I think I could only wrap my head around a bolt action at .308 or .50 for the lolz

Yeah bolt action, .308 is actually quite a boring and ‘loopy’ cartridge to shoot, try 7mm Rem-mag.

If I had £8000 to drop on a bolt action..
