King Arms Colt M4A1 Vs VFC M4ES-145R M4A1 Carbine

    Hi guys,

    Im looking to buy a new M4 some time in the not too distant future. The two named in the thread title have caught my eye. Anybody have any experience of either who could shed some light on them from a quality point of view? I will be looking to turn whichever one I get into a project so it wont stay stock for long. The King Arms is nearly €70 cheaper. Is this a brand name thing or is the VFC that much better? VFC has an 8mm gearbox as apposed to a 7mm in the King Arms. External looks are a big plus for me and I hear that VFC make great externals. Its hard to tell from the pictures posted on the retailers websites and Ill be buying online as neither store is within practical travel distance from me.


    Thanks in advance!

    i would get the vfc, much more reliable imo, just change the stock hop up rubber and you have a very good gun!

    Cheers for the reply. Is the VFC €70 more reliable though? I will go the VFC if its that much better that I would just end up spending the difference bringing the KA up to the same standard (or more as the case may be). Ive looked around on youtube but most of the videos are by kids and not hugely informative.
