Unless shells are dirt cheap or the gun can be modded to take a stick magazine or something, it's not worth it.

I'd buy it for the looks, but that's just me. Shells for that thing would cost you your left testicle after a while. Hang it on my wall and show it off, that's pretty much what I'd do if I bought it. $82 plus shipping, for the price it looks like a nice piece, most likely not skirmishable though.

To me thats a waste of $82 on a shitty springer. Might as well buy the Marushin or Tanaka Kar if you really want that gun. I hate the clone companies thinking that they can make "teh pwning" springer rifle, slap an $82 price tag on it, and make people think its good. Though it might be ABS and metal, its still an springer. Shells cost out the ass. Its got seems larger than a hookers vagina. And again, it still a springer. This $82 for me would go straight to a holosight, or to saving up for a Tanaka Kar, which is probably what anyone whos not 12 would do. Heres a much better rifle, worth the money: redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/ProductDetail?prodID=9023Thats 100% real wood, metal, and shoots 420 out of the box. Considering that $82 is about 1/5 of that gun, spending the extra money is well worth it.

he is right, and if you go check the WWII airsoft forums, they will support what dahm said. the tanaka is the most reliable and robust K98 on the market, and there is no shell ejection, so that problem is solved.

I think people who want a WWII gun but will rarely use it might go for something like this. While I have a tendancy myself to splurge on guns, I could see getting something cheap like this just for the hell of it. Especially if the shell issue can be resolved by say, going to the range and creating some extra empty 8mm mauser casings, then modding them to work. If i end up with some extra cash at some point here (i.e. if my fiance, who is doing nothing to combat the stereotypes regarding women and money, manages to pay me back so I'm not at -$500 and I can sell one or both of my aeg's) I might pick one up just to screw around with.
Besides, I find hooker's vaginas to be a bit smallish, so the seams aren't really a problem.

i have it i kinda regret getting it it got it for christmas the front sight wobbles a bit the saftey kinda wobbles a bit two some times it mis cocks and instead of cocking the guns it just goes forward and loads the guns and it wont shoot so you have to take that and load it back in the gun , its covered in lube too in the bolt and inside the barrel and if it starts getting dry the bolt and the chamber starts making scratches and engravings in the shells
although you can get the shells like a 1.29 each at gunner airsoft

You've got to do what you got to do to keep bad info out and good info in for the good of the people. And so I don't get flamed for off topicness, is this gun any good or is it just a dressed up super 9?

It's not that good, but it can be made playable.

It's much better than a super 9, the construction is superb. It's more because of the shells and the hop-up.

Am I the only one that noticed the guy that said he had it, got it for christmas. The thread starter(different person by the way), started this thread this month. Meaning, the guy that Dahm "told" had it before Dahm even said it?
So in lack of better words, Dahm, you didn't tell him so. He already had it.
And for christ's sake, what the hell is it with MiA now? Arguing over damn near anything.
Where's Bigmack at when you need his ban hammer?
