    Theres no difference in performance between the two models, the Silenced SD model is merely cosmetic. Frankly, its up to you... pick the one you like best. JG are a good brand and well respected and reliable. You wont go wrong with it as a first gun. :) happy hunting.

    If it were my choice i'd take a sd, i think they're much nicer looking than normal mp5s in my opinion

    all right the thing is that the mp5 is a good weapon i think you shud buy it and if you play out doors a lot get non silenced because yu will be firing long rang so get the mp5 with silenced or non silenced if wat ever you play.

    so dont buy a smg because they only work indoors and outdoors only with silencer ,

    ehhhhh no

    its all down to personal choice when picking an aeg ,my tm mp5 has the same range as most aegs in standard form now (getting upgraded) adding a decent hopup like a guarder clear silicon rubber with give greatly improved range ,
    as for silenced or unslienced again personal chioce i like the look of the SD mp5 but went for a standard front end ,probably pick up an SD version in the future,
    the great thing about mp5 there plenty of options to choose from upgrade wise 4 different stocks ,silenced fronts ,ris rails ,fore-end with torch ala sas style /swat
    sights micro red dots , eotec's
    you will find plenty of reviews on line

    I love mp5's, great choice, the mags are cheap and easy to carry and the gun is very short and light, and can match any airsoft gun for performance.

    I like the mp5j, the fore end is less fussy than the SD and can accept after market handguards, with rails or lights.

    Say What? I'm not even going to
    A) try to translate, or
    B) dignify what I think you mean with a cutting reply....

    I will simply sit here, and bang my head off the desk

    There is an SD Ris handguard Sammy my manny... quite snazzy too.

    Tbh the mp5a4 and a5 are nice and simple... and as I said at first, no range or performance difference with either. Pick the one you like the look of and enjoy :)

    WOW that looks pretty, doesnt say who makes it though :confused:

    I don't know much about loads of different AEGs but i know that my mate has had a sportsline m4 CA sinse he has started and my god it is pure brilliance, its crazily accurate, and the performance is stunning. and i dont mean to exagerate but the first time i used it i was mind blown. and it was stock aswell. and its cheap cheap cheap!

    Its a Cybergun rebrand, could be an AGM gun though. I've only heard good things about them. Stay away from sportlines, they're the same price and total rubbish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 941 ✭✭✭hairyman


    As far as aware the Cybergun M4 CQBR is a re branded A&K,,,,,,

    Mostly made of descent stuff,,,,will more than likely need to be shimmed and cleaned,,,,id say its worth the outlay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2 revan2010


    Thanks folks.

    Not new to airsoft just wanted to see if anybody had any thoughts on the m4.

    if it's cybergun I will get it alright, they are good from what I have seen/heard. I have a CA sportline and I'm sick of it. This full metal M4 CQBR seems to peek my interest alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 654 ✭✭✭Markom5a


    I have one of these and it is a great gun! I have put about 15000 bbs through it and skirmished it once and it is perfect. It's acurate and has good range. One thing though it does need to be kept well siliconed to perform at it's best, other then that it's brilliant (and full metal and trades!)

    Cybergun do not make any of their own AEG's,,,all Cybergun AEG's are re branded jg,a&k and Cyma models complete with with trades.
