« on: December 23, 2012, 08:15:16 PM »

Okay so after looking at the race gun picture thread and want to build one. I am looking at the following GBB's and would like the opinions of guys with more experience than myself. So if you could just give me a general idea of what would be best that would be great.

Gun Modifications/Parts/Accessories / AEK-971 project inquiries will be made

« on: September 18, 2012, 10:07:24 AM »

Okay so I kinda like the looks of the AEK-971 from BF3

Mostly because it is different. I have been looking at different airsoft gun's to try and figure out a base gun that would work which is what I am wondering. What do you guys think? I know for the foregrip/handguard I can use an Ak-74u grip I saw on AirsoftGI that is ribbed similarly I figure I can get 2 and modify the grip to be similar.

My main question for ASR is:
What base gun and other parts do you figure should go into it?

Gas Discussion / Sidearm question for those with Russian based load outs

« on: June 28, 2012, 07:42:24 PM »

Okay this question is for those that strive for a realistic Russian military loadout. Unless I am mistaken the current sidearm for them is the Mp443 "Grach". If you carry a sidearm what style/replica is it?

« on: June 28, 2012, 07:10:01 PM »

Okay well browsing Airsoftgi since I start a new job soon (been living on unemployment looking for work for 6 months) and decided that once bills are paid a new airsoft gun is in order. So I went to my favorite website Airsoft GI. Now I found a Mp44 made by Lancer Tactical? I haven't been around much for a while and have never heard of this company. So my question being are they any good?
