Expanding collection
So I've been looking for a pretty decent longer range weapon and was wondering what you guys think, I'm thinking possibly a M-14 or similar rifle but I'm up for any ideas. Thanks.

Re: Expanding collection
Plenty of longer rifles out there to choose from. My personal favorite asides from the M14:
Each one could have a 4x optic put on them and be very functional (and sexy).
H&K G4 SG-1 - Played a prominent role in the film Stargate.

FN FAL - An oldie but goodie.

H&K G36 - One of the most comfortable rifles to bring to bear, IMO.

Re: Expanding collection
Well I would have to say that I have always been a sucker for M16's. Upgrade the gearbox and a good tightbore and hop-up bucking and it becomes one of the best DMR platforms in my opinion.

Re: Expanding collection
I would suggest a G&G M14. They shoot amazing straight out of the box, but can be upgraded to be a competent DMR if you want. Or if you'd rather have an AR, I'd suggest a VFC M16.

Re: Expanding collection
Sounds great thanks for the ideas That FAL didn't sound like a bad idea to try something different. I think I may try out that G&G m-14 looked at the reviews and they are good.

Re: Expanding collection
The problem is that no one really makes a good FAL or G3 for airsoft. Classic Army and Ares are your only choices, and they get many quality complaints. They aren't really field ready.

Re: Expanding collection
That does pose a problem. what kind of upgrades would be good for a G&G m-14?

Re: Expanding collection
Not true, Tokyo Marui makes an excillent G3 in either the SG-1, MC-51, G3A3 (discontinued) and PSG-1Esteban wrote: The problem is that no one really makes a good FAL or G3 for airsoft. Classic Army and Ares are your only choices, and they get many quality complaints. They aren't really field ready.
i have owned all but the PSG-1 and I can recommend them all, plus if you want more power it is a V2 gearbox so either have some one upgrade it, or do what i did and buy a systema drop-in gearbox
here is a link Click me! redwolf can also upgrade your gun when you buy it for you. Just scroll down to the upgrade list and click it.
Re: Expanding collection
Also bear in mind that there is rarely such thing as a ready made AEG DMR, length does not translate to DMR status, internal after market upgrades do. So, when choosing a platform bear in mind what upgrades are available and necessary to get the performance where you want it.

Re: Expanding collection
Yes guys, I know all of this already. What we're missing is a G3 that is ready out of the box and has good externals as well. I want a good quality body with internals that I shouldn't have to replace the second I get the gun. CA and TM don't offer this.
I am hoping G&G will consider making a G3 full-size variant by taking what they already have.
Henry, I'm not talking about DMR-ready. I am thinking a G3 configured for assault would be fantastic.
I guess I didn't really specify in my original post

Would you not be able to take the upper receiver and barrel assembly from the CA and put it on the G&G?

Re: Expanding collection
That might be an alternative. However, the original poster probably doesn't want to do that.
For myself, I may just end up buying the CA and seeing what works. There seem to be incompatibilities between TM and CA (mags, selector switch, etc).

Re: Expanding collection
Good point.
I read that too, the TM mags don't work with CA and vice versa. You could always try the Jg and echo1 mags though.

Re: Expanding collection
Thanks for all the advice I found out that the G&G M14 only accepts G&G mags but is a lot easier to upgrade and a 110 or 120 spring would be a good upgrade
Not that I wouldn't but I don't trust myself at messing around and making things work the way they should lolChippy wrote: Would you not be able to take the upper receiver and barrel assembly from the CA and put it on the G&G?
