Robot666 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Right, I've ended up with two cqb rif's (don't ask how) a g&g arp 556 and a classic army x9. One of them has to go. But which? Both have functions/looks I like and dislike and I'm starting to piss myself off deciding which one needs to go.... So over to you guys, any of you have experience with both rif's? Help me decide before I stab my brain with a pencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asomodai Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 From a practical perspective. The Arp. Looks? Sell both and get a Vector 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Tackle Posted October 24, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 24, 2019 Having two cqb style rifs isn't a problem, @Asomodai will vouch for that, although it is questionable how you ended with almost virtual twins, it's like getting engaged while your still secretly shagging her sister, there's gonna be tears 😭 lol. comes down to what you like the best, what feels "right", or on a practical basis, which one have you got enough mags for (are they inter-compatible ?), & prices for spares/extras for each gun, & lets not forget you now own both, so irrespective of whether both have "never skirmished" bollocks, their secondhand so you need to consider what's gonna give you the best return when sold, which I suspect may be the CA, given they rarely come up on the classifieds, compared to quite a few arp9's have been floating about. although I'm with Asomodai on this, both are just bastard lovechilds of an m4, no matter how much you hype them up, & id flog them both get a vector, aeg version obviously, & you'll become an airsoft god..... 😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot666 Posted October 24, 2019 Author Share Posted October 24, 2019 The arp is a 556 not a 9 but you're right still a bastardised m4. 57 minutes ago, Tackle said: , @Asomodai 😭suspect may be the CA, given they rarely come up on the classifieds, compared to quite a few arp9's have been floating about. ..... 😜 span widgetspan widget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cromulon1994 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Sell them both and get a type 97/97b. Or a magpul FPG. The problem with an AEG vector is one day some smug cunt will be next to you with his vector and it'll go "brapbrapbrap" because its the GBB KWA one, and a small part of you will die inside.

ryaw Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Almost a necro post, but I'm interested in which one you feel performs better and why,? I was interested in adding either a CA Nemisis X9 or G&G ARP9 to my inventory, but have only ever found the ARP9 to try hands on at my local site. Nobody has the CA that I know of.

CA is not at all popular with retailers in the UK, unlike G&G, hence the lack of X9's and the abundance of ARP's. Why that is, I can only speculate. Poor quality in the past may or may not be the reason, but regardless, CA RIFs are rare in the UK these days. I'm interested in the owner's opinion of how both compare.
