    I wasn't planning on getting a Christmas gun, but a recent bit of work has changed my mind,

    At present I have an CA m4 CQB SEAL, it's a bit of an inbetweener, it's not light enough to be a back up weapon nor quite small enough

    So I was thinking of getting either a backup weapon, ie. P90 or MP5PDW

    Or an accurate gun, not sure AEG or sniper rifle, I used a WELL L96 recently and although I did like it because of the single shot most people were not taking their hits
    So the other choice would just be a accurate AEG, I was thinking a JG Steyr A3 or perhaps a JG HK416

    Any suggestions or comments would be more than welcome.

    I don't have any specific price range, but not too expensive.

    Thanks :D

    Jesus man get a P90! The 300 bb mags are great. Me mate has a jap one and the 300 bb mags are great, no winding. Theres the china ones of it out now too, they'd be cheaper, seen it here before somewhere

    Got an Echo P90 to play with the other weekend having owned a TM.
    Stick a 9.6 in it and you are sorted.
    Job done.
    Case Closed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 616 ✭✭✭DisasterIRL


    Was thinking of that but I am just looking for other peoples suggestions or other options, what about the JG AUG A3, I've heard it's excellent. And seems to be top notch out of the box


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,052 ✭✭✭Dr_Pepper


    But .. but .. they are Fugly.
    Like real ugly, worse than the dreaded XM8 - bloody star trek gun.

    ** Off the point a bit --- what the hell is with ppl putting rails on just about anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 616 ✭✭✭DisasterIRL


    Matter of opinion, some people think the P90 is a keyring.

    I like both :)

    yeah in fairness, both the P90 and the AUG are fugly, but both are brilliant guns. i would go for the P90 over the AUG based on the fact that its so much smaller and handier to use, the A3 is a pretty heavy piece.,

    oh, and disregard the above comment dissing the XM8, thats a piece of magical ingenious!

    Oh forgot about that gun, are there any decent versions of it?? :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    Theres the SRC, i dunno of anywhere selling it though, i got the AGM one a few months ago, was pretty decent and really quiet but as far as i can remember it had a funny hopup so needed modding if you wanted to change the rubber.,

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,159 ✭✭✭daz801


    you could go all out and get a minigun
    but if you want an accurate aeg that is a sniper a sl9 would be good
    dont know who makes them ma and another company i think but they are sweet looking and pretty rare to come by ive never seen one being used

    dont be a cheater get spring or gas if your going to be a sniper.if people dont take there hits the second time aim for the cheek haha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,170 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    I half a agree with Vtec. Yes, the P90 and Aug perform very well. But no, they are not fugly, your bloody armalites a fugly, no curves.

    Yeah, the A3 is nice, but has a shorter barrel and weighs a fecking ton. If you want a long ranger I'd consider getting an A2(Or A1, but a big ass scope would be nice) and adding a phantom kit. See image below. You could then get a really long PSG inner barrel and an upgraded hop unit. And some ghille....

    What I'm saying is, how much are you willing to fork out? The A2 can be got for 170 or less, a chinese phantom wont arrive in time but will only cost like 60 smackers, scope, its up to you, inner barrel will be close on 50 for a long enough tight bore. Hop would be like 15-25.

    Also, point to note, the Aug has no selector, imply pull further for Full Auto. Handy if you were to be found, you could instantly let loose with a very nice ROF.

    Anyways, its worth considering.

    nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo that's manky man and its uglier than the p90.get the Barret ha ha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,258 ✭✭✭Cheeky monkey


    I have a great charity event! We'll get every AUG In the country put them all in a big fire and charge people to watch em burn!*looks at Simon while laughing like a maniac*

    Any if I was you I'd grab myself a nice little BAR/VSR -10 or a couger very nice pistol :D and there is the option of gettin yourself a g36 and turning it into a f*ck off g36 :D

    P.S A mix between the vsr and bar is prefered :D

    Your faith in the AUG is on par with Liverpool fans dreams of winning a title.

    And after the aug pic you posted on irc, I think your opinions should be thrown into the black abyss and forever forgotten :D

    Youve seen my armalite right? I'm sorry im not remembering any iconic film where an AUG was used, but i can name a few of hand that used my m16.

    Want some ice to cool that burn?

    :P

    Somehow do not think my sig would work with an AUG....

    Ironic how the Austrian Oak there ditched his countries abomination for some american pain dishin!

    if anyone knows where to get arms like that for my loadout id appreciate it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    AUG: end of Die Hard, nuff said.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 277 ✭✭-PornStar-


    Yeh you are totally right we all should abandon our personal likes and dislikes. A uniform opinion is the way forward. Armalites are cool coz everyone has one.

    In fact now that I think about it chavs/scumbags have got it right from the beginning. From now on I vow to only wear tracksuits combined with peaked caps(Worn at the standardised angle of 45 degrees in relation to the top of mah head).

    it seems to be nearly a 1/1 likelyhood of every thread turning into an AUG-bashing/AUG-bulling session, whether or not the thread started with mention of said aeg or not. it really makes for boring reading at this stage :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing tracksuits...you...you elitist you :P

    HAHA I know everyone has tastes, but you werent present when "the pic" of "the rifle" with "the boxmag" was presented.

    And im glad you werent, cause i think we all died a little inside when we say it.

    Suddenly a stubby with boxmag doesnt look so ridic.

    I'm jsut curious how you hold an aug with a boxmag :)

    Anyway we are drifting off topic immensely :)

    OP original post was jg hk416 or jg aug a3, both quality pieces.

    And i think the custom jobby on the A3 me and dex/did is about the only aug i like.

    Basically standard body with tasco scope, quicksilver silencer and foregrip...looked the dogs.

    And wearing hats at 45* isnt nackerish, its aerodynamic...jeez


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,170 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Sorry, but I cant let him away with it:
    SIN CITY
    SC-Steyr-AUG.jpg
    DIE HARD
    DH_AUG.jpg
    COMMANDO
    Commando_AUG2a.jpg


    And yes, its the bad guys gon, but bad guys make a movie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    As i just explained to you, they all get pwned :)

    Doesnt say much for the AUG :)

    And as also stated, yes in The Running Man, the guards at the start in the prison, use augs, yet arnie somewhow kills them all with an armalite, which leads me to believe, he looked on the ground, laughed, made an armalite from scratch and destroyed them

    Now lets take this to off topic thread, to come up with a decisive winner :P

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    Oh no, it's happened again.:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,258 ✭✭✭Cheeky monkey


    Lethal that just tells us that people that use augs are stupid enough to give their radios to kids that are probably working for the enemy and are gonna give the intel they hear to the enemy


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    The AUG is also the baddie weapon of choice in "The Transporter"., the first one., man that was one fine BWM in that film., hmm, im gonna go watch it now., :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada

    Yeah i agree, armalites are fugly, even though i have a few of them,.
    however i maintain the AUG and P90 are horrid star wars looking things, and coincidentally i have both of them too., :)
    Then, to top it off, your one is Classic army!., ep1k Fa1L!.,:p

    the lesson to be learned kids, if that all airsoft guns are the same when it comes to performance, and that appearance is usually only the deciding factor, so pick something that suits your style and shaaddduppp you gang of fanboi's! (but dont buy CA, in that right simon.,;))

    H&K 4 L1Fe!

    but dont buy NEW CA

    Fixed. If you can find old stock/second hand then you're ok. Wanna be looking at close on 2 years at least.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    And 2 years of wear and tear? just to get a decent-ish CA? emm, no, i dont think so.,lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    Where is G&G with their AUG A3 thats what I'd like to know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 616 ✭✭✭DisasterIRL


    Well I do agree that CA's are not worth it, but I love mine, I just do, and now with you bit of TLC richie it is orgasmic to fire. Makes a nice noise now too with my Gemtech Halo silencer :D

    If you are at Dark Mist II then you have to just fire a high cap out of it, you can fell yourself jump in the pants :D

    I also have a feeling that the rate of fire went up by a pellet or two a second and you can't beat 23/24 pellets a second.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    Yep, i love your CA too., :D
    3122433652_51dd4a9fc1_b.jpg
