Question about CYMA...

DukeAwesome

How are their products? There's a gun I want to buy ( http://www.hobbyairsofter.com/Rifles/Electric-Rifles/CYMA-GSG-522-MP5-Cybergun-Airsoft-Ireland )that has been manufactured by them but I've never heard of them before. Are they a trustworthy manufacturer? Are they up there with Classic Army and Tokyo Marui? Or more along the lines of Jing Gong? Cheers

could you please post a link to the gun in question. Anyway there products have become better lately and you usually get your value for money but in saying that they are along the lines of jg but a bit better imo. as they are a china clone they wont be perfect.....shimming will be poor , internals will be OK but will be absolutely caked in grease! if you can open the gearbox and 'uncake' and redo the grease and shim job you have a pretty good gun. grease and shims should only cost a tenner extra anyway and its well worth it.
hope this helps

I have 2 cyma m4s, I love em, prefer them over my supposedly higher end guns like g&p etc,
they are quite reliable, I have mine a year and a half and it has outperformed everything, hasnt broken yet and its never even been taken apart.
My friend had an mp5 from cyma and he just opened the gearbox, re greased it and put 1 shim on each gear and it was firing perfect.
if there externals improved a small bit they in my opinion would be a mid/high end contender.
Brilliant guns, id rate them above d-boys and jg easily, id happily buy a cyma gun again, and id have to think long and hard about a 'higher' end gun.

Have had several CYMA's and $kilkenny has summed them up well. Estfront is selling one on thread with the work already done. Worth a look.

Im keeping my eyes open for the new releases from cyma, a few more m4 variants and I saw an sr-16 there somewhere so theres another 1 or 2 more to my collection in the next 6 months.
