Hoozy Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hey! I’ve recently been dissapointed by a gun which is on its way back to the shop, which means I’m in the market for a new RIF. I want something I don’t have to mess about with too much. Budget of £200. Mainly play large outdoor sites so a longer range would be favourable. I was thinking maybe the G&G CM16 SRXL, or possibly the RL-8. Cheers guys and gals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM18 Mod1 or new Raider 2.0 no ETU version what gun was you having grief with ??? SRXL - nice but I still don't trust G&G ETU's (as you might tell) Why RL-8 - is it just the mofo sight you like the look of (get a lens/cover or that will get wrecked) Personally - just me I love look of CM18 still but has a mid-cap and funny G36 flash hider Or sod it get a Raider 2.0 if you can find them in stock (swas airsoft maybe) tbh - anything half decent will do as long as it don't let you down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wo1f Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Get an ICS. I don’t think you can beat them for the price. And the split gearbox means it’s easy to work on. I had a sportline version years ago. Don’t think I ever had an issue with it in years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute nightmare from day one! I don’t care about the sight as I have my own (probably better) one! Just liked the aesthetics of those guns in particular. I like the sleeker m4 styles with longer barrels. I’ll have a look into those you suggested! Wo1f, I would but they are a little pricey for me! What about a ASG Armalite M15 L? Plenty under my budget from Patrolbase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by experience I would go with the G&G CM16. Great gun to buy on a smaller budget and incredibly reliable with decent out of the box performance.

tasum Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Despite the recent issue I had with a g&g predator, I really rate the g&g rifles. I used rental versions for a while and they all seemed very solid and were reliable. I was especially impressed with the firehawk, which is probably a bit short for your requirements, but I'd recommend the g&g guns. I plumped for the wild hog for indoors, but they have good range for a small, light rifle. I went for a Specna Arms mid length for outdoors. They seem to have good internals at lower prices. Mine was just over your £200 budget form Fubar Bundy. Worth a look. Let us know what you decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine had a wobbly fore-end that couldn't be tightened up. Very rare I'm told, but always worth checking if you're in the shop. For the extra £60 or so, I held off for the CRB. However, I did get the wild hog which seems very solid with many more screws holding the fore-end to the receiver. So g&g overall very reliable. Just check them over. Also, the heavy metal fore-ends in other makes use a larger stump to clamp to, that holds the fore-end, so that could be a factor. They seem to be great rifles and the predator I shot was very responsive. I'm glad I changed my mind though, as I'm not so keen on the full length fore-end, which I appreciate is part of the attraction. They also do the polymer version which is a bit cheaper, but the full metal versions I believe have better internals. All very complicated. I'm sure you'll be very happy with your predator.
