One point, that coke can rule of thumb thing is sh1t. drinks cans come in various thicknesses so the US ones probably arent the same as ours. My aug will go straight through a pepsi at 10ft but not a coke at the same distance.

Well, no - inconsistency (lack of accuracy, if you prefer) is why it's considered a 'rule of thumb' :rolleyes:

By the way, 9 meters is 27 feet, give or take a foot - so that's one bb in the coke can at 27 feet...

...I might have to reconsider attending that whole 'CQB' HRTA thing

once it's under/at 1 joule you'll be fine, most of the rental guns are approx. 1 joule anyway

besides, we mostly play outdoor these days

Not what I meant
Assuming the M4 is more-or-less at 1J, I really really don't fancy being on the receiving end of one :eek:
Guess I'll just have to be [unreal tourny announcer]God-like[/unreal tourny announcer] then

CRs big yoke was brand new at 1J an i took to headshots and one to the thumb! Still have a blister on my thumb. Nice krylon on it too. Whats funny was the gspec headshot didnt hurt:p

[--SC(+)PE--]

Mark_Sc

Troy style silencer(sorry scope)

And Goggles

[--SC(+)PE--]

Looks savage, r ya going get a longer barrel for the silencer to go over cos the silencer is a little bit longer then i tought at first, im sure an m16 lenght would fit in their now

Ffs lads, this is a review. Cut the BS lads, Oisin come on man...sort this out. Ambro wrote a really REALLY nice review, obviously took some time to write it (instead of the other people on here who just copy and paste reviews from other sites and claim there their own) and they just hijacked his thread and made it a bloody spam mess to increase their post count(only logical reason I can see for it).

I agree. I thought they might have noticed my hint earlier...anyway. Thread will now be despamified.

Edit\ Christ that's a lot of spam.

<Edited; you have a fair point. Although the way you worded it would probably end up with this thread turning into a flame war. Removed>

Back on topic, seriously nice review man. I always HATED the armalite series but Im actually considering buying one of these now with a 203 after I upgrade my P90.

o1s1n

I was never an armalite man myself. But full metal at that price can't be beat. I just hope it shoots as good as you say!

ambro25

From HRTA earlier today, figures after less than 500 rounds from new, Paul firing 0,2 Maruis in semi into the chrony -

Shot #1 - 322
Shot #2 - 315
Shot #3 - 325
Shot #4 - 324
Shot #5 - 322

Review now concluded

@ petergriffin - €160 for AEG (with all the goodies), extra 1400 mah battery and 2 extra mags (metal), shipped. Of that, shipping was about the €60 mark. Customs was on top, so €184 total.

Am I looking at the right gun? Also was the total price 160 including the custom charges and delivery? 1 last thing Im new to importing AEG's is the custom charge payed at your door when its delivered or at the post office depot. Sorry about all the questions I am a total noob. Also great review buddy.

Shiva

You pay the delivery guy, cash or cheque.

If cash, try have lots of change....I think you need the exact amount.

petergriffin20

Cheers.

petergriffin20

Could any1 else answers the rest of my Q's please. Thanks in advance.

Mark_Sc

It cost him €160 for the gun, spare battery, 2 mags and shipping and customs was €24

petergriffin20

Thanks alot buddy.

Hi All,
Excellent review Ambro. I am planning on getting the 'Dboys' M4A1 RIS AEG (BI5181 - metal). Looking at the two guns the only difference seems to be the RIS rails on the 5181 as they are both BIM4 series so should have the same motor and gear box and so on. Has anyone bought the 5181?
Thanks lads.
Max.

Good review, i hadnt made up my mind on which m4 to get but think ill be getting the one ambro got, for that price how can you go wrong.

ambro25

You can't go wrong.

The worst is mentally and financially accomodating the modding ideas you then constantly get for it, Pokemon-stylee (gotta get them all! ).

I've already got a red dot on it, got my eyes on Keith's short version of the ACE stock by ACM, and still trying to work out a way of shortening the front end without butchering the inner barrel or changing it (atm, Guarder front outer (M933/commando version) and Noveske KX3 - waiting on WGC or anywhere else to restock on the M933 part before ordering the lot). Then again, maybe just a 100mm silencer? Or just an XM177 flashhider (looks like a long affair, but can't find actual length anywhere)? I need 90 to 100mm.
