Then they had to try to differentiate themselves by sticking (more) bits of plastic to it and calling it "gucci". :P
Oi! I resemble that remark!

Nah, most people dont use ar15s.... a lot use aks, g36s, mp5s, etc, theres thousands of variants, ar15s are popular, but i meant the type of user... they treat it like its the best thing since pop tarts, and as soon as others use it, they hate it...
Um, Not everyone really gives a toss about pmags, and i doubt its the end frankly... I doubt airsoft will even notice. I hardly see the things in game myself. Only one or two use em.Originally Posted by gerrowadat
Oh God. It's finally happened. This is the end of Airsoft.

You'd be surprised. I see a hell of a lot of ArmaLites on the sites I frequent (South Dublin). H&Ks are second. The only AKs I see regularly are rentals unfortunately.
It makes me a sad panda.0 -

Mmm, nowhere near enough wood and steel around... everyone should own an ak, prooves you dont need this ris rubbish or special gucci plastic mags to be efficent and deadly...
I quite like the H&Ks, though. I still think the G36C is still a bit bandy looking. Like it needs a longer barrel or something.
I second the motion about the steel. Although, I have to say I'll be changing my wood AKS-74 into a plastic AK-74M in the near future...
No idea whether or not to keep the steel skeleton stock though...Most of the eastern european players here use the aks..... (Not a throwing shovel in site though!)
We can hope and dream... hope and dream... :cool:0 -

Tbh, i prefer aks with wood, its more... iconic and classic looking. The plastic looks so passé and western...
Aye. I found that one. I'm just trying to figure out whether it's worth it or not. I'll be getting some real steel polymer handguards for it, anyway. Hopefully customs won't have a problem with me importing them considering they've got part of the gas tube in the upper part.
I dunno. Although I appreciate the wooden models, I think the modern models retain the serious nature of an AK but brings it into the 21st century.

Some amazing action scenes in that film. It's so chock full of kickass it's unreal!
Awesome film indeed. Got the original subtitled one on Dvd... most patriotic comrad! hehe0 -

all down to choice but if your staying accurate and you want to switch over to a full stock then black ak74m Is the only colour and plum is the aks74, so from what you have said a solid stock for the ak74m is for you, and with mags great to have a. Mixed bag of version plum bakerlight and black as all are still seen ( plus the MAG brand magazines just work well)

That certainly is a good way of putting it!
And the one I saw had the most horribly retarded subtitles I have ever seen. Still didn't stop it from being an awesome film.all down to choice but if your staying accurate and you want to switch over to a full stock then black ak74m Is the only colour and plum is the aks74, so from what you have said a solid stock for the ak74m is for you, and with mags great to have a.

Yeah, but I hear that the VDV still use some black AKS-74s with skeleton stocks so it wouldn't be that inaccurate... I think I will go for the full AK-74M look, though. And as far as mags go I've 8 black mid-caps and a Bakelite and plum high-cap for emergency situations.
Cheers mate!0 -

Hey, if the entire gun came in plum I'd do it like a heartbeat. It's silly how much better that blends in compared to black.0
