Nathana94 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Hey everyone! First time posting here, and first time buying an airsoft gun that wasn't £9.99 at an open market.. I've decided I want to go with Specna Arms - the metal externals are whats getting me the most and I've heard some good thing for them as beginner AEGs. My question is - are the new 2.0 EDGE models decent? I've seen a few things about them firing full auto on their own, mock bolts getting stuck and warping - but I havent seen anything about the same issues in the original H series. Does anyone have any experience or advice on these? :) Also, I'm looking for a model that would be a good balance for CQB and Outdoor use, as I'll likely switch between the two as and when. I was originally looking at the SA-H06, but I think that would be too big for CQB - can anyone recommend? thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDcase Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Welcome Specna Arms are very good in my opinion but I haven't looked at the new models. There is the argument that its not a good idea to adopt new things until they've been tried and tested (by others) If you've seen questionable things about the new range then best to stick with a model that has more info and history of use. Yes, the SA-H06 looks a bit long for CQB but its up to you to decide what you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I've just seen on their facebook page, they've acknowledged the issue and said it's only present in a few guns, and that if you follow all the steps they've posted and you still have the issue, they will send you a USB cable for free to correct the software - but I feel you're right with the tried and tested thing! I'm not sure if this is different case by case - but is it possible to just buy an additional barrel and handguard to swap out based on what I want to use the gun for? or would it not really work like that? (sorry for the noob questions!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDcase Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Don't worry, the only questions we don't like are ones such as, "what gun is best?" and "what should I get?" without any previous research. The answer is, yes, you can change parts on the gun to alter its characteristics but its a pain in the buttox so not very common I would say. Most of us will find that as an excuse to buy another one 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDcase Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Can't help there. If there isn't enough info, I'd get the cheapest 😉 ...or wait until there is more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathana94 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 Ah you speak much sense. There is a lot to be learned from you sir! Haha. I was leaning towards that but thought “there must be a reason it’s more expensive”.. the retailer believes it’s just a different stock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuckMySock Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I'd suggest against buying Edge 2.0, quality control is non-existent. As far as I know, they have changed their OEM, which resulted in the mentioned QC drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lasbrisas17 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Its max length is 925mm, my main gun that I use both outdoors and CQB is around that so I wouldn't say its too long for CQB, I think you'll get the best bang for your buck with this gun. I'm a small dude and if I have no issues running that length in tight CQB, you should be good to go. You can always get a pistol for situations where you are really in a cramped spot. I've only heard good things about Specna Arms and i'm eyeing one up for myself rn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathana94 Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 I took the plunge on the H08-M, should be getting delivered any time this week as long as shipping isn’t delayed too bad with everything going on - will let you know how I find it when it arrives (albeit with my limited knowledge other than watching NegAirsoft swear at gearboxes..) 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
