Open bolt-Closed bolt

[Yorkiebar]

A friend of mine wants to buy the WE PDW GBB. He has been offered two versions one with an open bolt and one with a closed bolt. What is the difference? And which one is better?
Thanks for your help.

The open bolt model has had the WE Open Bolt Modification kit fitted to it.

Apart from that, they're identical, as far as I know.

Ah! i see.
But what does the open bolt do for the RIF that the closed does not? why does it need an open bolt? Please explain the differences. thanks again m8

open bolt means you cant see the brass tube like on the older models so looks more realistic. closed bolt still has full working bolt but has the visible brass tube . thats about it .looked at these myself is he getting the traded version? is he getting long or short barrel version?
