    I've wanted one for a while myself. Definitely top of the list for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭PonchoTron


    That looks absolutely amazing. I hope it lives up to the video.

    not the same by a long way, the madbull version bear a resemblance to the M320A1 but is not a replica

    http://www.madbull.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=22 might as well be chark and cheese if your looking to create an accurate replica


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,638 ✭✭✭F.U.B.A.R


    Well its all the one to me any idea what that one costs? If its based on realism then its i imagine its gona be pricey as the 'not so replicated' Madbull is fairly expencive like the majority of their range of course :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,261 ✭✭✭Puding


    an accurate replica does not mean it is more expensive, madbul items tbh are at the top end of price, you can pick up an accurate replica of the m203 for 80euros inside Europe where as the non accurate madbul tubes are well over 100euros

    The quality, actually.

    Well in all fairness their XM203's are pretty basic in terms of construction and and parts?

    I've always liked the idea of the m329 as a stand alone launcher - but as an underslung launcher it's just too bloody huge! That and the grip is so far down that it makes it awkward to use as a front grip. It's a matter of choice I guess, but the m203 has always felt a lot more comfortable to hold when aiming.

    Which is precisely why they're so reliable compared to similarly priced M203's. They recognised design flaws with regard to airsoft and corrected them.

    Ah indeed the simpler design and fewer parts does have a great effect on how well it works or so I've gathered from countless reviews and it is favored by a large part of the airsofting community BUT what I'am trying to get at here is that the simpler design should also effect the price of such an item and even though its a nice size and is easy to use and so versatile it can be deployed on a pistol your still looking at €100-€120 which I think is a little high for what it is :)

    And i believe i have added yet another piece to a project :rolleyes:
    Once asked The Minder: "how much time and money would you spend on one of your infamous projects"

    He then replied : "You really don't want to know"

    Should have left it there...:rolleyes:

    Airsoft........ tis a sickness :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭NakedDex


    A decent M203 is going to set you back ~€150. The €100 XM203 is a bargain.
    The clone M203's for €60-€80... well, ask any wannabe grenadier about their graveyard.

    It doesnt have a English (Ireland) setting :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,088 ✭✭✭BioHazRd


    For those who haven't been following developments in California, sb798 was a senate bill proposal that would require all airsoft devices to be clear or brightly coloured.

    This met with stiff resistance from across the airsoft world (the IAA were in contact with the objectors offering any assistance needed) and I just saw on fb that the bill was rejected.

    This is good news for everyone, as this would have set an unfortunate precedent with possible wide ranging effects, even for us on this little island of ours

    There isn't an 'irish'English, you speak the propper version, like us, most cultured europeans, and the aussies and kiwis, (we don't talk about the knuckledraggers across the pond)

    There is a recognised "Hiberno-English" as well though. Probably best described as a dialect of British English.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭Firekitten


    sure enough, It was more a suggestion that the spelling of this word, they claimed was 'irish english' didnt exist, dialects aside.
