GHK G5.

Better performance with easier access to mags.

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

+1 for g5, awesome kick, easy to carry mags around, very accurate

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

It's a tuff one I have both and can't fault either one tbh but if I had to make the hard choice and only have the one it would be the kriss vector

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

Ghk, however, if you're a new player and new to airsoft, gas guns are not the best option, especially if it's your singular primary weapon, they require a vast amount more maintenance than aeg's, they are less reliable, mags are much much more expensive and will hold a max of 40rounds, maybe give a few more details about yourself to give people an objective view

Don't listen to this guy, he can't even spell "Tough" properly.

Vector is a cool gun, but isn't as usable as the G5 in many people's opinion.

plus its in an m4 esque shape, rather than akin to a nailgun

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

depends what you want, they're both brilliant guns in their own right.
in terms of pure skirmish-ability, G5.
but this is airsoft. where looks are king for sure. :P whichever you prefer. neither will really let you down!

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

I have a Vector and a team mate has the G5, cant fault the G5 at all, but damn I love my Vector. Performance wise I think they are pretty much the same, we certainly engage and hit targets at the same range in real conditions and gas usage is similar. If price is a consideration then I think the G5 mags are a little cheaper although I've not really looked recently as I have 4 mags for the vector and that does me for most games I play.

Personally I would go with looks on this one as long as you can get mags with the Vector.

Vector... I Love mine. G5 is just a bit samey and meh. Nice bit of kit though.

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

Bit biased from me as I only have the G5, but +1 for it I would say, since everyone seems to love them. One retailer called it 'the best GBB of 2013' or so I've heard. But as mentioned, they'll probably be around the same but I'd pick the G5 just on kick alone.

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

Blytm - if you played CoD then the vector would be the samey one! Everyone seems to be painting the recesses in their one a different colour, looks poor at best!

I don't own either, but if I was to buy one it would be the G5 - as it is I hope to buy a GHK M4 when they are released.

The nail gun looks awesome. :P Looks wise, the Vector smashed the G5. The G5 looks like someone hit an M4 with a shrink ray. Or makes you look like a giant. XD Plus, they blend in with every other AR variant-looking gun in airsoft. BORING.

That being said... The G5 is the one I would have. The Vector mags are harder to find, I would say. Not to mention that although it may look boring and stupidly small, the second you pull the trigger, you start smiling and they start running. :D Had a go with it the other day, and the recoil is amazing for a little gun like that. +1 for the G5.

I'm not 12 and don't play COD so probably why I like the Vector Personally the performance is great but the basis of the gun, the recoil system, the shape and everything pertaining to the entire gun itself is dynamic and works which sells it. The G5 is just an M4 in the end and the Vector a very large Glock. In airsoft terms it's down to choice. It is easier to run a G5 though.

I can understand if someone were to paint the V like my profile pic but outside of that god knows why. However as it's Airsoft why conform?

EDIT: With games if it's been programmed to be the best gun nobody goes in to battle by shooting themselves in the foot to make them handicapped. However there is a certain challenge to using something else from the norm e.g. BF3 when the USAS had explosive ammo and most people were using it. Fair play, personally never used it as I didn't have to / want to. The Vectors and G5's and such are the more challenging weapons and aren't common in Airsoft so each kill you get with either will come with a satisfaction sweeter than those using spray and pray with a 8 Billion round Hi-cap

Re: ghk g5 or kwa kriss vector?

"I don't play COD!" Then makes an analogy relating to BF3 in the edit?

Sorry son, but the irony tickled me.
