M240 or FN MAG machine gun...

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with any of the FN MAG/m240 GPMG? I could not find any retailer with one for sale either... I am toying with the idea of mounting one in my Ferret!

You're not gonna have too much luck without getting verified.

Well, I've been an unverified member of airsoftcanada for about 5 years so odds are I'm over 18 by now... Unless I first came here at 12 years old or younger...

Doesn't make a difference. If you need to get access to a certain type of gun, there are retailers in the classifieds here that can order them in for you. You just won't have access to these conveniences until you put the effort into getting verified.

And sorry, we can't grant you verification just for being around since 2006. Contact a regional rep.

That is pretty awesome though, that must be an ASC record except for maybe someone out of Canada.

Shrapnel, I've got an E1 240B. I love it, it's unreal.

I'm no gun doc, but out of the box the biggest issue in my opinion is accuracy. It definitely needs a longer inner barrel, a tightbore at that.

Someone else made a post regarding internals but I'm too lazy to find it.

Pretty solid AEG imo

I have two M4, a M16A2 and a Glock 17 in my airsoft inventory right now (always good to have spares for friends!) but I want to put a gun in the turret of my Ferret so I could use it in future games (once it is restored to working condition). The Ferret is equipped with a GPMG craddle (for the Brit version of the FN MAG) so an M240 is the only airsoft gun I can mount without extensive modification. We used it once in a static role but with a M4 shooting through the mount but aiming was difficult... I could order another type of mount from England but it would be for a Browning M1919 which is not made by anyone in airsoft... And the mount costs 1000$ with the shipping! But I could fit a real steel semi M1919 in it...

Toronto Airsoft seem to have one in stock. I contacted Redwolf Airsoft earlier and I'm waiting for their reply. If Redwolf cannot ship to me, I will contact Toronto airsoft (thanks for the tip Strelok!) Redwolf has a much better price but shipping could be problematic...

Thanks for the feedback stricken! I would need to fit a longer inner barrel then...

Redwolf Cannot ship to you because we live in Canada ... you sure you've been AV'ed?

He's not verified and don't want to do the effort to be.

I guess in 5 year he didn't read the facts either...

And how did you manage to get a Ferret?
