Airsoft Gun Comparison

Hey guys,

I didn't want to start a bunch of new threads, so i put my questions in 1 thread. i hope i dont get flamed for it:

1. for a primary gun, what would i be better off with; a TM M14 or a CA M14 and can i get a RAS rail shroud for the CA M14?

2. I wanted to know which compnay makes a good 6mm Mauser Kar 98k rifle

3. if i order a real wood stock for an M14, does that count as a lower reciever and thus be stopped by customs?

I just discovered Warhammer 40,000 and the Death Korps of Kreig (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/acatalog...OF_KRIEG.html), so i am trying to go for that kind of look. The lasguns that they use look the most similar IMO to an M14.

Thanks,

Donster 125

Would customs stop and seize a 2x4 if you ordered one from outside Canada? It's the same thing. It's just a piece of wood. The answer is no, it would be fine.

Assuming the CA M14 is very similar to the TM one, then yes, RAS made for TM M14 should fit the CA.

As far as I can tell, the top half of TM M14s is built very close to real steel. The mounting methods of uppers and of the RAS units are the same.

The marushin kar98 is a shell ejecting 8mm gas gun, obviously less reliable due to the complex mech required to eject shells :\ (8mm is a bitch too)

k that is good, but for the life of me, i couldn't find one on WGC. All the Ras units were made for Marui type guns they said. Same goes for the Wood stock.

Keep in mind, that all of the information that WGC writes for a product's description is true... AT THE TIME IT WAS WRITTEN.

They don't revise product descriptions when a new gun comes out that can support that part. ie, the CA M14 came out long after the TM & G&G did. Almost all the M14 RAS units on the market right now showed up shortly after TM released their M14.

If you want, I have a Guarder M14 in stock & for sale. Bring your CA M14 by some time and we can see if the swap can be done. It doesn't take long.

so then the short answer is "No". I cannot get an RAS unit for the CA M14. that being said, which would you recommend for a primary gun? TM M14 or CA M14?

Uhh... actually, the short answer is: "nobody knows".

Like I said, bring the gun by some time, I have a Guarder M14 RAS in stock - we can try fitting it, doesn't take much time at all.

k thanks. umm i actually still have to get the gun, i was just finding out which gun you would recommend, CA or the TM before i go out and purchase it. I have two looks i want to go for, but the M14 goes with both, which is why i might want to get it. But which would you recommend, the CA or the TM? And why?

I have no experience with the CA, so I couldn't say, although I don't see why you wouldn't go with TM.

Based on CA's past reputation compared to TM... I'd pick TM over CA as far as build quality and QA goes.

I have a TM M14 OD, upgraded to 390fps with a .25g BB. I can hit a man sized target at over 225 feet (trees not withstanding). I've put over 6,000 rounds through it, not one problem.

Get the Marui

Donster I'm guessing your going for the WW2, WW1 type of look / experience. Watch the Gear and Clothing for sale on here. I seen a trenchcoat just a little while ago. Not sure if they sold it.
