Best/Worst charging/cocking sound you've heard?

[J888]

What's the best charging handle sound you've heard on any AEG? And also the worst?
I only started thinking about this in my head since my recent CYMA M14 purchase. The sound that charging handle makes is so intimidating!! A JG Steyr AUG would be second on the list, and as for worst - probably my TM P90. Sounds like I'm sharpening a knife when I cock back lol

Please share your cocking experiences!!

The worst is on the AGM mp40.

scrape of the paint coming off when you pull it back

then the same when you have to push it back forward as it isn't sprung

least satisfying thing in the world

Best? Well:

G&G M14, RS SVD, King Arms M4 LaRue (Especially with the bolt release, tasty).

Worst?

Not really any particularly bad ones, but the A&K Masada sounds like a flimsy piece of crap.

Cyma, TM and KART M14's (especially the EBR's) have a meaty sounding charging mechanism. CA, AGM and Dboys Scars have a similar sounding charging handle..

Basically anything that has a sprung metal on metal system will sound great.. even if it's likely to break if over-used (non-CA MP5 and "HK Slaps", I'm looking at you).

The cocking action of the AGM Sten sounds absolutely dire. The closest thing I can liken it to is somebody dragging their nails along a blackboard; it's that bad.

Any and all G&P Armalites sound awful.

Re: Best/Worst charging/cocking sound you've heard?

ICS M16 is the worst I have come across, after you do it all you can hear is the humming sound from the spring. My G&P M4's is pretty disappointing for noise, but not as bad as the M16.

My L85 didn't sound too bad when I had it, but my WE SCAR has the nicest cocking sound by far, or are GBBs not counted?

Yea im not sure what it is with G&P's all of there M4 variant charging handles sound and feel horrible to pull back

WE Scar is nice and chunky

Re: Best/Worst charging/cocking sound you've heard?

Why would it matter what it sounds like if the cocking handle isn't used to operate the gun? (not including gbbr's of course)

What makes me sad and angry (sangry?) is when people go into the field and pretend to cock their AEG, anyone else seen this?
Maybe im just becoming a miserable old sod, and keep off my f*cking lawn too you damn kids.

really? i thought airsofters cocked their guns every chance they get.

Best for me got to be Tanaka m870 closely followed by an m14

Re: Best/Worst charging/cocking sound you've heard?

the 870 isnt an aeg, but i admit, the sound off them is sweet! love mine...

my m14 sounds really nice, but nothing like a real rifle

Re: Best/Worst charging/cocking sound you've heard?

All M14's sound great
