    m4!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 589 ✭✭✭Beast ASI


    It's really down to personal choice. What is your main aim for it ? What are you going to be using it for e.t.c ?

    An M4 and a G3-SG1 have slightly different uses ;)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,321 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Master


    The first one
    http://www.uncompany.com/pageproduct...sp?prodid=7471

    Getting something similar myself soon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,674 ✭✭✭Skatedude


    i have to admit, i'm leaning towards the first one too, I want to confirm with un that it has a metal body.
    The m4 has a nicer granade launcher, but i am not a fan on m4's in general as there are so many around,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 211 ✭✭Hagakure_irl


    I would also give my vote towards the first one:

    http://www.uncompany.com/pageproductdetails2.asp?prodid=7471

    Considering the price of the package and what you get, i think its a pretty good deal. Its CA, so assuming it would be metal.

    Fire support state its a Glass fiber body on it:

    EDIT: Number 4 would be my second choice:

    The first gets my Vote boss man :)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,321 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Master


    The body is made of ABS/Fibreglass just like the real thing as far as i know


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,314 ✭✭✭Fiach Dubh


    Go for VFC's H&K 416 full trades all metal and polymer in the right places. Or if you can wait a while VFC's FN SCAR is due out in the next few weeks, Available in Tan /puke or black /sex, full metal and polymer, comes with standard barrel for assault configuration, long barrel for sharpshooter and snub nosed suppresor for CQB. Field strips like the real steel, comes apart in 3 sections, takes about 25 seconds as apposed to the 10 minute strip of most AEG's. Both take standard M4 mags.

    Pictures on WGC.

    All VFC AEG's fire 1 joule ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,518 ✭✭✭[--SC(+)PE--]


    Hk 416's look savage, If you plan to spend up to 500 or whatever then ya might aswell get something pretty :p

    I've never liked ak47's or varients, but vfc's ak74's are just so beautifully built, and the scars arnt out yet,

    Dammit, i'll have to sleep on it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,156 ✭✭✭tonyj_mc

    Like the look of all of them not sure though, reall don't know any opinions?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭Shiva


    The Sig 552, imho.

    This is probably grounds for me to be lynched at HRTA this weekend, but I *hate* the Famas (sorry Oisin :p), and the P90 isnt much better.
    The XM8 looks like something from Star Trek.

    The SR36e is nice too.

    There...I have spoken...get the Sig. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,156 ✭✭✭tonyj_mc


    was thinking a while to get the sig as a project gun, but i like he look of the XM8 kinda weird

    Don't worry, won't be mine for much longer by the looks of things ;)

    Have to lose it to get a new AEG. Be sad to see it go actually. Nicest sounding gun I've heard yet.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 985 ✭✭✭Mark_Sc


    <Picks jaw up from floor>

    Come on! stick a surpresser on the end, a nice scope on the rail and a 15 round mag in it and it's complete

    Wah! that's so weird. It was tonyj_mc I sent a pm to. (regarding something in another forum)

    His name has 7 characters, yours has 6. They both end in a C, have an underscore in the middle and a red avatar. That's just bizarre! :D

    See?!

    http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055123268

    Its a conspiracy!

    Anyway....back on topic...nothing to see here...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 985 ✭✭✭Mark_Sc


    I must confess when tony signed up i asked him to put in and underscore, add a C to then end of his name and make sure to have red in his avatar

    Go with the XM8. The only reason I say that is because I want to actually see one up close. :p It's one of the few AEG's I haven't actually seen yet. It's certainly unique, and I like the futuristic look.

    i'm leaning towrds the sig or xm at the mo,
    i'll get a G-36 eventually,
    one of the lads has a P-90 so if i want to use i'll borrow his if i wanna use it.
    i really like the fact no one seems to have a XM8 but also slightly put of by it as well

    I wouldn't mind seeing the xm8 myself...wouldn't ever buy one though. I'd agree that it does look very Star Trek.

    g36 or sig for me.

    Is there any assault rifle you DO like? :p

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,674 ✭✭✭Skatedude


    i have the p90, its a bit plasticly, but its solid and a joy to use, i'm starting to get really fond of it, especially for close quaters.
    But i think i'll get the vfc ak74 just beacause its so well built, andsave up for the vfc scar when its released


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,518 ✭✭✭[--SC(+)PE--]

    not many ;)
    just hk 416's, railed m4's and certain Ak's and Aug's

    The real P90 is the same weight and made from plastic so its not "plasticly", its just accurate!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,674 ✭✭✭Skatedude


    Finaly ordered this,

    http://www.uncompany.com/pageproductdetails2.asp?prodid=9685

    The quality of it sold me in the end, I may have to install a new spring depending on the power as its just on the limit,
    it can take a 12v stick battey but i havent found anywhere that has one yet, so got a 9.6v till i can.
    Now its just a matter of waiting for the mailman to turn up


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,314 ✭✭✭Fiach Dubh


    Nice! I have the AKs74N myself. You won't need to put a new spring in, the 74 fire at 318 fps average, that's confirmed by WGC with a chrono. The piston head can take the beating of a 12v no problem, that's been confirmed by a guy who's been using a VFC AKs74U for over a year with a 12v. If you are going the 12v road I'd advise metal bushings though, unfortunatly VFC put nylon bushings in :(

    The VFC AK's won't work properly with 8.4v batteries. They can't pull the piston through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 589 ✭✭✭Beast ASI


    VFC also have some of the best gears I have ever seen ( Apart from Prometheus of course ) and if you wanted to run it on a 12V I would advise the following:

    Metal Bushings
    Deepfire Piston (Titanium) / Prometheus / Guarder

    All you need to do is get a custom 12V stick battery :)

    Dammit, paypal account access has been limited , they think a third party was trying to access it, probably me when i cant always renember which password i am using, i have loads due to work, we have passwords for everything.
    I'm ringing paypal first as this isnt the first time that my account has been hacked.
    A few times after logging into paypal, i've gotten a page requesting addition information due to paypal upgrading the account information, they asked for things such as credit card number, social security number, bank account number, and also bankaccount pin number and credit card pin number etc.
    Cant believe some people fall for it
