Introduce Yourself! / Re: Just moved from Hawaii
« on: July 14, 2013, 01:38:19 PM »
I've been to Oahu. GREAT place. Welcome to the Valley of the Sun! Its always nice to see some new faces.
You happen to be in luck ma friend! about a couple miles away from ASU, right off of Apache Blvd and Mcclintock rd is Tempe Paintball!
It just happens to be a favorite for some of the guys here. Though not the biggest place, its still great place to sling some plastic and have a lot of fun. Plus, most of the time, ya wont have to worry about little kids there.
People here on the forums usually organize meet-ups to see who'se down to go where. And Tempe Paintball always has half-price admission on Thursdays or Fridays (someone here will know. haha)
Hope to see you on the field!

(Also, check out the "For SALE" part of the forums, you'll always find some neat stuff. Personally, I'd reccomend a Kwa ATP. But if you prefer a different style, then there's always more to choose from)

Gas Powered Guns / Re: Good Glock GBB Pistols?
« on: June 30, 2013, 12:32:51 PM »
The Kwa ATP is the best to train with. It's basically a G17, and is very well made, (compared to the old KWA/KSC G18c's, which are rattley and more of a "Designer gun" rather than a training pistol. They are more exotic now in the airsoft world, and Parts for them are also hard to come by).
The GOOD thing about the Kwa ATP/G18c mags- is that they have spring bb follower guide "locking"feature that allows you to load bb's SOO much easier. That, and their magazine lip is made of metal. Plus, they hold gas great. A+ for the ATP. not so much for the g18c.

BUT
WE Tech makes a G18c now that you can order in two separate pieces.

Slide- http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?products_id=38090
Frame- http://www.evike.com/product_info.php?products_id=41762

They are constructed very well, and they are also skirmishable. The design of the gun is based off the Tokyo Marui platform G18, and is mechanically designed better than the Kwa/Ksc kind...Mostly because they have LOTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS of replacement/ upgrade parts available.
And most notably, Theyre CHEAP! at $100 for a G18c, you just can't beat that.
So look into it :)

AEG's / Re: Magpul Full Metal MOE 11.5" CQB AEG

G&P is probably one of, if not the best name in the industry. They're right up there next to VFC.

Usually, the G&P MOE is like $350, but there are always cheaper alternatives. (or deals for them here on the forums of course  :D )
It is true about their gears. the axle on the sector gear is almost always destined to snap. That being said, all you need to do is replace that gear with a better one right off the bat, or just get a new gearset entirely.
The piston is fairly good. It will not last you forever, but you wont need to worry about replacing it for a while.

As for a battery, a 7.4v lipo is PERFECT for any G&P. (or any airsoft AEG in general).  They're compact, hold great charge, have awesome trigger response, and has the perfect amount of volts to rock the house at any game. And best of all, if used properly, they'll probably last you forever.

So lets recap. G&P M4- new sector gear & MAYBE piston, and 7.4v lipo and charger (around $50). and you're good to go.
A couple good alternative companies are Kwa, VFC, Matrix, G&G.  These brands all have great full-metal external options, and great internals:)

Airsoft Equipment Specials / Re: Echo 1 Mini Gun for under $200
« on: June 20, 2013, 07:07:23 PM »
Seriously. Thats a ONE in 200 chance of winning it.

Sure, one lucky person will win. But the other 2/3 of EVERYTHING available on there is just not good.
Literally, 1/3 of the guns are an SRC m4 Plastic.

Mystery boxes are a plot by Airsoft retailers to get rid of all their crappy guns that don't often sell.

AEG's / Re: The benchmark of a well-made airsoft rifle
« on: April 18, 2013, 07:42:26 PM »

I'll respectfully disagree with this too. Trigger response, and RoF are (mostly) functions of a high wattage system. Via either high voltage, amperage, or both.

High muzzle velocity is a function of spring choice. None of these things will make a gun perform more accurately and in fact the RoF issue will negatively impact piston and gearbox life.
It might shoot more pleasingly to you, but none of these make it more accurate nor precise, and thus does not make it put rounds on target any better.

It may put out more bbs per second, farther, but without precision and accuracy, they're just a beehive of bb's going a long distance, while missing the target.

I have this discussion a LOT in fact, especially when I was on the range giving a class or helping out. There are a lot of professionals out there with plenty of muscle who can keep the rifle/pistol trained on the same spot over and over again, but its sight alignment sight picture, trigger control, etc, that makes them accurate. Over and over again they can make mistakes that makes the bullet hit the same, but wrong spot over and over again. They're precise, but not accurate.

I understand what you're saying. I just feel that 'Precision and Accuracy' sound like kind of the same thing.
Precision is when your rifle can fire bbs at the same spot, again and again, staying accurate and on target each and every time. (thanks to the upgrades in inner barrel quality, hopup, airseal, bucking, and being sighted in correctly).
     But just by definition, to be "Proficient" means that one is better at something. More skilled.. and the way i use it- is to demonstrate a prospect of Higher Quality.  I guess Proficient is a bit geared to human characteristics, but you can think of it as being synonymous with the word "efficient" i suppose..

But i maybe i was a bit vague when i listed my explanation. Let me be a little more specific:
lets say that we have two M4's. Both have been upgraded to shoot both Precisely and Accurately.
And each of the M4's have DIFFERENT, but Reliable, strong internal components that will not break on them.
They EACH run on Specifically, a 7.4v 1400mah Lipo battery. Nothing else.

Now. Let's say that each of the M4's have identical cylinders, springs, and airnozzles. and Each gets an identical FPS reading of 330.
BUT lets say M4(A) has the following components:
Azimuth piston w/ steel teeth, 18:1 ratio gears, g&p m120 motor, and a G&G trigger mech.

Now lets talk about M4(B). Its components are as follows:
Azimuth Piston w/ steel teeth, 13:1 ratio gears, Echo 1 High Torque Motor, and G&P trigger mech.


M4(A) chronos at 16 RPS, with okay trigger response. Totally reliable.
and
M4(B) chronos at 18rps, with INSTINTANEOUS trigger response. Totally reliable.


In a skirmish, M4(B), with NO human involvement-ONLY focusing on rifle's alone, will always have the upper hand. Because reaction time and speed are MAJORLY the deciding factor in a split-second firefight.
Even though M4(B) only shoots slightly faster (rps wise), it doesn't make a major difference in skirmishes or wear&tear. However, having superior functionality over M4(A) makes M4(B) come out on top, every time.

General Airsoft Discussion / Re: Kriss dumps KWA
« on: April 18, 2013, 07:03:09 PM »
its sad to see Kriss do that. Its like seeing a wonderful couple that you know break up. and you just wonder why? They were so wonderful together. What happened between them to cause this? Oh well.. we may not get answers.
But if Kriss works with another airsoft manufacturer with their guns  (VFC would be AWESOME), i'll be happy that i'll still get to buy their products. Because God knows that people out there are probably wanting to get their hands on the AEG Kriss that was in development aswell.
