full weight GBB M249. The feel of the VFC version is just wrong

 

But why? I mean, surely for Airsoft (and milsim/larp) you need it as light as possible, unless of course it doubles as your gym membership...

Off the top of my head, there’s 3 guns I’d really like at the moment, obviously GBB’s:

 

VFC MP5SD

VFC M110K1

A GBB M16 or M4 with the A2 solid carry handle.

 

Edit

 

Also a full weight GBB M249. The feel of the VFC version is just wrong. 

go LAMBDA  

 

 

 

(my hernia operation is booked for next week ?) 

[The_Roach]

GBBR semi-auto battle rifles.

SAFN-49, AG-42, SKS and MAS 49/56, the lot.

Real wood, real metal, rubber bayonets.

Potentially a BB Trap shower type rifle grenade attachment with those.

I'm into heavy weapons. 60 mm M2 mortar I'm starting right now, but I have a weakness for 20 mm Flak gun. It would be much more expensive project though.

[TheFull9]

Standard V2 AEG M4A1 (ideally properly Colt marked) from a high quality brand/in high end form.

 

I know I know big yawn, but we seem to have hit a point of having a million different ARs on the market yet the most basic type is comparatively unusual to find at this point.

I had a similar battle trying to get a bog standard, no frills, OG metal and wood Cyma AK47 a few years back. I remember being on the phone asking a few retailers if they could source one, and all of them saying along the lines of; "What, no rails or anything? Isn't that boring?" No, no it's not. It's classic, you belt-fed throbber.

Exactly why I wanted one... got an E&L AKM Essential recently, actually got 2 by mistake so taking one to POW tomorrow to see if someone wants it cheap, getting the right battery wasn't straightforward due to the sizing tho.

[C-Diddy]

That'll get snapped up

I know what you mean. The last thing you want to be doing is lugging that weight around the airsoft field and I can see why VFC went that route. But, as a collector, having a full weight, GBB M249 in my collection would be awesome.

That looks spectacular. Is it a full Lambda build or is it Lambda parts on and A&K or Classic Army? Do Lambda parts fit on the VFC?

[RostokMcSpoons]

Re: VFC M249

I guess the full weight version would add raw material cost AND delivery costs that sellers might not fancy.  So somewhat-sensible business decision not to go the chonky-boi route?

full Lambda , no idea on the parts compatibility with the VFC , but the Lambda para stock alone probably weighs more than the entire VFC build ?

[OTH21]

Most of mine are almost readily available in the classifieds, just can't justify the purchases at the minute.

 

Wood stocked Ww2 rifle: Garand/Kar98k

GBBR Thompson

B.A.R

Flux Raider build pistol

G3 with sliding stock

Something that hasn't been made - DP-28 Machine gun.

 

My current build will hopefully be a UK unique AK, but time will tell if I'll get it to look how I want it. And it will need a HPA engine to operate.

GBBR Versions of an SKS and a Sterling 

[The_Roach]

Oh, and I forgot, AEG versions of all the top fed LMG of the 1930s-40s.
The ZB-26, the Bren, the Vickers-Berthier, the Type 96, the MAC 24/29 etc...

Man, I've only been away from the hobby since 2002, have some sympathy for the guy who's back from airsoft jail and is only just learning about what gnus have come out in the past 20 years.
