    i've put together a few for myself and others and advised on a lot more but i manly focus on realistic replicas based on a specific time/unit/reference photo/conflict aimed at accuracy over crazy performance, the guys at QAS do a fair few customs more based around performance other realism

    really depends what your aim is for the custom


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,463 ✭✭✭Leftyflip


    I've built some aswell, mainly for myself but like Puding for a few others too. Usually I go for performance over looks, but I don't mind making something period specific with great perfomance.

    I've seen a couple of DB's custom guns, most recently a VLTOR build, and he really does a nice job on them. What are you looking to do, build a custom AEG from scratch with individual components OR modify an existing AEG, do you want a specific look or performance characteristics?? Either way you're going to empty your wallet!

    I also have seen/handeled some of DBs (THE MINDER) custom guns and I have to say that the quality and finish of them was second to none
    If you want some thing that bit extra special then he is the guy who can build it just the way you want it

    +1

    I have held and shot 3/4 of them when I met up to buy a SCAR off him. They are just pure awesome!

    I had a Masada, coaxed with food and some other treats, he made killing machines.

    Now I'm left to my own devices......which means I don't touch my airsoft gear


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭elDiablo79


    i cant recommend dave from ARU(THE MINDER) enough if your lookin for a custom build M4 go see him or PM him. ive got him to build gunz for me before and all i can say is top of the range QUALITY!!! he cud build a m4 to do 25bbs no probs using a 8.4vnimh, ive used them before, never mind those 11.1vlipos. he only uses top quality parts on everything he builds.:D

    I've one of Richie's pieces too, if I was getting one made I'd go to him. Decide what you want out of the gun and then find someone to make it up for ya:)

    Depends on the make mate. Sometimes you can throw good money after bad. You could spend up to E100 doing what you want done but it might fail because of the inherent flaws of the base model.

    +1 on The Minder. Also Leftyflip is a great bloke to speak to. Always helpful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 711 ✭✭✭Spooky-Vinny


    another +1 on the minder,
    Never loved a AEG like the one he's built me :)
    xXx


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 279 ✭✭Keegan


    For me it would have to be QAS in Carlow. Have two custom M4's off them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 Soups


    Guys:cool:, Those of us looking for a bespoke gun, well the only person i can recommend is the ''minder'' From team ARU i recently purchased a stubby CQB made to order and its going like a swiss watch on steroids and still meeting the regulations.........what a BB dispenser!!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,511 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Another +1 for THE MINDER, sold an AEG to him yesterday and he was happy enough to show me some of his custom work, amazing AEG's, the one thing i was amazed by was the trigger response :eek: Amazing work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 711 ✭✭✭Spooky-Vinny


    Recently bought an AEG off him aswell, couldn't be happier with the quality of his work.
    absolutly head turning. like no other in-game!
    Thanks again THE MINDER!
    xXx

    Finally caught up with Dave (the Minder) and he showed me some of his work and I can honestly say they are singly the most well built and sexiest guns I have ever seen. The man is a true genius with an AEG and in truth - I would sell my Magpul Masada in the morning to own one of his guns!
    I am now saving the pennies to add a little something special to my collection!!

    So fair play to Dave aka The Minder - he can star in it, write the theme tune, sing the theme tune do do do da (Little Britian if ya lost ;) )
