Good Assult Rifle

Hi All,

Just getting into this Airsoft Malarkey, great craic. The 4 times iv been out iv used a friends gun. I am now financially able to get my own, What would ye recommend? I was looking at the masada (acr) but its hard to come by. The one I was using was a g36 which was nice and is a good price. Decisions decisions, any advice lads???

You wont go to far wrong with a G36 very good starter AEG and they are easy to work on and upgrade
There is a bit of a shortage of AEG at the moment due to some trouble in china and it is only about now that they are coming back onto the market althought very slow in coming
Why not have a look in the Adverts section, you may see something that interests you and maybe bag yourself a bargain

Captain Chaos

If you want to go for a G36, seeing as the clones are hard to get right now the new Ares G36 range is very good. Their G36C is about €130 before tax and shipping. Parts are not an issue for them anymore as you can install TM internals if need be.

A retailer could order one in for you.

What price range are you looking to buy within?

If you want something,,

A - dependable,

B - Affordable,

C - Reputable,

D - Upgradable,

Then in my own opinion you cant go to far wrong with the likes of a G&G Raider/Plastica.

have a g+g raider and jg g36 both are an ideal gun and has to be said the range im gettin off my raider fromstock model is crazy good;)

I reckon your best bet is the G&G Raider...DBoys & JG are still not exactly flourishing at the moment, so for €200 you get a quality device with some great internals. Plus, if you get an armalite (M4 etc) then there's an abundance of accessories and parts available for 'em

Try to avoid classic army, go with what the rest of the guys are sayying, g&g raider ftw

The world is your oyster mate,,,,,i still say go with the raider and spend the leftover on a good battery/charger combo and a few spare mids.

MerryDespot

I agree with hairyman - for 300 lids you can't go far wrong with the raider, a decent battery/charger and few spare mags. G36 is also a very decent starter aeg - just be aware that mags for a g36 work in .... err ... a g36, whereas mags for the raider (stanag mags) will fit in any M4/M16 armalite type that takes stanag mags, or a SIG 556, or a tavor, or SA80 or some famas models - much more cross use.
Best of luck mate - welcome to the sport and kiss all of your spare cash goodbye. This sport is more addictive than spanking badgers.

Were do they sell the raider in Ireland? Gonna get myself one of them too as Im only getting into airsoft

edit - Nevermind, found one
