The Official Questions Thread Version: "Charlies in the trees, what do I need to get rid of them?" - General

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper hit and miss afaik the only guns of theirs really worth getting are the galils and l85s and even those have problems (see qqn's borked l86 trigger contacts)

+1, ICS's QC is spotty at best.

[QUOTE=Malikyte;45253559]I might look into the VFC one then. Supposedly those two new MP7s VFC just put out are 1:1 scale.[/QUOTE] Consider the fact that VFC has a poor reputation for GBB's, and the fact that the WE Taiwan version is an actual MP7, not the stupid SMG8, and is also 1:1 [editline]30th June 2014[/editline] [url]http://www.ebairsoft.com/blow-back-black-p-7467.html[/url]

My friend is importing the vfc, I can have pics when he gets it

Especially considering they're literally the same price.

[QUOTE=Malikyte;45254351]I'll take my chances with VFC over WE any day. Especially considering they're literally the same price.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't. VFC is known to be bad at GBB and WE is known to be good.

>WE >good lol To each their own.

[QUOTE=Malikyte;45254513]>WE >good lol To each their own.[/QUOTE] Normally I'd agree, but point out to me a good VFC GBB. Their UMP and MP5 are so bad they're pretty much nonexistent.

WE ISSC good y/n? [url]http://www.evike.com/products/45329/[/url]

Just saying. I've owned three WE rifles and four WE pistols, and the only one that wasn't good was the M9, and everyone knows the M9 was shit, and that's why WE redesigned it. It can't be denied that WE is a frontrunner in GBBRs, and they produce very very gas efficient guns, with a large aftermarket, and rock solid externals.

[editline]30th June 2014[/editline] In any case, the WE will undoubtedly be better than the VFC, whether WE is considered a good company or not.

Personally, while the part quality isn't the greatest, I find that WE does have a much better grasp on GBBR systems. I would still buy the VFC because external quality and aesthetic is much more important to me, but I'd trust the WE more for actual skirmishing. If WE released a version with full trademarks I might consider it.

The only reason I'd buy a WE is because its cheap, and they're not cheap enough to make them win over the competition. [QUOTE]In any case, the WE will undoubtedly be better than the VFC, whether WE is considered a good company or not.[/QUOTE] Undoubtedly is a large word. VFC is responsible for the Stark Arms glock which is supposedly excellent, and could be a sign the VFC is learning how to properly make a GBB.

On a case by case basis, I've still not heard anything good about VFCs MP7 GBB, and frankly I also don't know if WE ever fixed the accidental discharges from the original run of SMG8s that would fire upon releasing the charging handle.

I've learned that the vfc mp7 has a plastic outer barrel, which doesn't mean anything for performance afaik but one guy made a video warning people that the flash hider can just break off with the threads if it's glued on.

Aint that some bull-shit. That sucks pretty much a lot actually.

I'd take a VFC pistol over a WE pistol any day. My Stark Arms (VFC) Glock is the best GBB I've ever even touched. That being said, from everything I've heard and experienced, I think I'd rather have a WE rifle or VFC rifle.

G&P M16A1 for ~400 dollars and bare-minimum food supplies for the rest of the month [b]OR[/b] No gun and eat basically whatever the fuck I want.

Buy guns, eat cup-noodles for life

who the fuck needs food

eat gun packaging

I want to order some inert .223 belts from oldsargesdropzone (or anywhere that's somehow cheaper) but my colorblindness and their tiny photos are making it impossible for me to detect the most...normal looking color option. Anyone help a brotha out? [editline]1st July 2014[/editline] Nickle tipped brass belt?

I kinda want to get into a "dmr" type of AEG to have next to my 74 and I've been looking at some SVDs. The SVDS made by Cyma looked kinda wicked to me (CM.057S) and I've been wondering if anyone had experience with that version or something similar.. the reviews I've seen so far said it was pretty okay for its pricetag but FP opinions are bestest opinions imo. Anyone? (Oh reason I've been eye-balling the S version is for travel reasons.)

i bought a m1 helmet and i noticed it has 3 little cracks in it, are these going to be a problem?

I'd like to think that it wouldn't be because it's literally a steel pot. Mine is pretty rough but it still seems solid

Folding stock is pretty cool too. I'd say go for it.

The CYMA SVD is. However I don't know that the CYMA SVDS is, since RealSword doesn't make an SVDS and the only company that does is ARES.

Huh I didn't know that about the SVDS. Be wary of ARES then.

The slide on my KWA USP Compact locks back while I still have ammo in the mag rather frequently. What can I do about this?

Is it an issue with the mag or slide catch?
