Comback rifle choice

[heckler]

cheers

I went out for a few years, came back and TM are still the most reliable IMO, I still prefer Classic army tho!

If you have the pennys, TM Recoil series are really really nice. I've had a go of other peoples and they feel so well made no wobble at all!

M4s still the best for cheap parts too

GBB are fine now but check the sites you want to play at allow them. You'll struggle to buy a bad AEG now, TM are just another name since every AEG works the same way now and reliably.

A lot of people still use NiMH batteries, as the move to LiPo only pays off if you are short on battery space.

If you're a new comer, then I wouldn't recommend to jump head into GBB's, LiPo's straight away as they are just harder to maintain, in my opinion go with an AEG: the G&G combat machine's are a great starting platform and offer a plethora of different weapons on this rather cheap but still reliable airsoft weapons. Hope that answers your question.

Yeah I still think gas is a pain, get an AEG first so you have a spare gun when your gbb stops working properly lol.

Also I've never used lipo batteries as normal ones have served me fine for the last ten years.

Re: Comback rifle choice

Gas guns:
Great fun
Low capacity mags (marginally more than real rags)
Heavy mags
Expensive mags
Slow and deliberate style of play needed due to lack of ammo
Perfect for milsim type events

Li-po batts:
More bang for your buck
Small and compact
They are NOT the type hand grenades people will have you believe

Any AEG:
Just about any AEG will serve you well and almost all are TM compatible in terms of parts and accessories. I suggest you buy from a retailer in the UK as you will be covered for defects. Some guns come out of the box too hot for UK sites so stipulate your expected sites maximum fps limit. Any decent shop will test and downgrade a hot gun for you. Something you would not get from the Far East.

If you get a china clone (such as Jing Gong (JG)) it may be worth getting it serviced and checked before you take receipt of it. Some of them are great guns but the factory quality control is not so hot.
