Other than E1 and JG

I thought i would bring more guns to the discussion.

To add, CA sportline, Galaxy, and CYMA.
Now i know what your thinking (WTF LONE WOLF, i thought you had exp.) Yes and that is exactly why im posting this thread (lol). Galaxy makes a very sturdy clone of the TM MP5k, same as JG. 'nuff said.
CYMA, has made some changes that their new guns include, like metal bushings. Their older models are still well, crap.

Tell me your opinions as well, remember this is stuff i just hear on other forums, but again it can might as well be absolute bull crap just rotting. I want to look into their MB's and see if what not said is true.

From my observation, CA sportlines are great guns. When comparing Echo 1s and the sportlines, I honestly can't say which beats which. It might even come down to which name you prefer. I've never shot a Sportline, although I've had the opportunity to hold one. The Sportline I held (M15) seemed much like the Echo 1 models, with a good feel to it.

Then there's Galaxy and CYMA. I have a hard time with these companies right now. I would like to see some nice models come out for me to be able to talk positively about them. This is much like my opinion of UTG. They've made some cheap springers, but have come out with a decent L96 variant and more recently released an M4 that seems to be very impressive - with features that even the high-end replicas don't have. My opinion could still go either way about the company, but I at least see UTG making the effort to develop (or at least re-brand ) some decent quality rifles.

I've looked a lot at the Galaxy mp5k - looks good. It gets great reviews, but is still an mpeg (and in the lower part of that spectrum). I wouldn't even consider putting it in the same class as Echo 1s or Sportlines. Other than that, what other models does Galaxy make? Very few - and the only ones I've seen are cheap plastic springer pistols and the like. Not very impressive.

What about CYMA? I'm not really sure yet. They have a few mpeg models that they're trying to steal buyers from Echo 1/Sportlines with offering full-metal/mostly metal guns for $15-$70 less than their mpeg counterparts (depending on models). However I'm not sure if it's worth saving the extra cash for a risky company. This doesn't mean don't buy one, and this is still all my opinion, but I've heard a lot of stories about CYMA's mpegs that make me worry about them. Reviews that show CYMA is trying to make higher quality guns, but still failing in a few key areas (cheap wiring, plastic parts, crappy gears, etc.). But then again, there are always those buyers who get a CYMA replica and absolutely love it. So a lot of it is just based on preference, available money, and the willingness to take a chance on a company known for its cheap guns.

Thats all CA sportline makes, is the M15A4. and sister varients of the same M15/ M4 varients.

For MPEG, SRC FTW. It is like systema of MPEG guns

I honestly can't say anything about SRC - I've never used one of their guns or even read up on them. I'll have to look into them. What's your experience with them?

I believe Classic Army also makes an Mp5 and an AK47 variant that are both sportline as well as the M15.

None, only reveiws and lit. They cost around $250-$350.

I personally like ICS, because of the wiring. If i wanted to, i could make a burst fire driver and install it. Speaking about that, have you guys heard about the new systema revolution MB that is said to replace the TM V2. It has a burst fire driver already installed, and it has a few cool features, like if were to tap the trigger it would do a full burst or full shot instead of only doing it part way. Also they got rid of the tappet plate. thank Don't use the Lord's name in vain. for Godly guns like systema. lol

I love E1's because it was my first gun, but their wiring is probably among the worst...

Yeah, there was a topic about the Systema Revolution on here earlier. The three round burst thing is sweet even if airsoft guns don't have recoil.

they do, just it is so little force that you don't even feel it. third law of physics...that question bombed everyone except airsofters. Yes my Physics teacher was a airsofter. cool guy.

Never enough to rationalize the functional use of a three round burst, but I still love the idea.

Actually here are the advantages for me to have S-1-3.

-It allows me to conserve ammo. Less time holding down the trigger.
-It allows for tighter groupings. 3 rounds in one trigger pull. IMPORTANT FOR DM
-It allows me to focus more on accuracy.

As ive learnt from doing this anyway with my S-1-F configuration.

Okay guys - back on topic. Please read initial post and respond to it only.

back on topic
