two_zero Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 So.. its been a while since I took a break from airsoft. I kinda of want myself a new pistol now thou When I left the sport WE Glock gen4 seemed to be kind of top game, that and KWA, but they kind of... dispered? So whats up these days? Lookin for something somewhat reliable, especially in cold weather, and that can take an aftermarket barrel & hopup. A bottom rail'd be quite dope as well.

Dentonboy Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Own a WE G19 which is decent enough. The old non adjustable HOP TM M92F is pretty good. The TM Detonics .45 is a riot to shoot. The (lower rail included) P226E2 and M9A1 are peerless IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keldon Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I have the tm p226 e2 non rail and it is a blast, had people comment on the range of it after being hit. And that's straight out the box with 0.28's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E21A Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Own a WE G17 and P226, both work well on black gas at lower temps. My TM G17 struggles in cold weather as it won’t last on black gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick G Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 My 2 WE gbb's run fine all year round. G18 and WW2 spec 1911. Run them on Nuprol red all year round . Both reliable and decent performance. I may well drop a maple leaf hop unit and barrel into the G18 next year as it gets by far the most use.

emilianoksa Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 2 hours ago, rocketdogbert said: In all weathers, I’d go Armourer Works CO2, despite being a massive TM fan boy myself I have an AW myself. It was my first airsoft gun, and it's the one with the blue slide. It hasn't been skirmished, but I've shot it a few times at the range and it seems like a pretty decent gun to me. I had intended to sell it when I got my UKARA number, but there is something about it I still like. The hop up on it works much better than the one on my WE Glock . It looks to be generally better made. And yet, when I bought it, lots of people were slagging the brand off as nothing more than a pimped up WE. Some Americans were very critical because it wasn't really TM compatible, even though proprietary parts are widely available. A bloke called Knuckles on Youtube took one to pieces and gave it a pretty damning review. But they continue to sell very well on both sides of the Pond. I know you are a pistol guru, Mr. Dogbert, and you seem to like them, and that's good enough for me. What do you reckon to the Secutor Rudis and Gladius? ARe they worth the money?

emilianoksa Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Yes, as far as I know, the parts are made by WE, but to AW's specifications and with much better QC. They are handsome guns nicely put together, will take green gas and C02 (depending on mag) and seem to shoot straight. I just can't bring myself to sell mine. It may be blue, but it was manufactured that way and it looks nice. Strong blowback with green gas, so I would expect it to really kick with CO2. I might actually skirmish with it in the New Year. I have quite a few hicap mags - AW, WE and TM. They all fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's my current favourite CQB primary. The rate of fire is immense. The trigger response is exceptional. And because of the split slide, it sips gas. The only thing I find irritating about it is that the outer barrel isn't threaded, which means I can't run a tracer. If I could, I think it would be perfect. Also - in terms of changing inner barrel / hop etc - there's no need, as it's spot on out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
