Kjw m4 gbbr

Any comment on this specific gun? I am still debating whether I should spend money on it? I have my eyes on the KWA Magpul GBB M4 as well, but that one will be a hard one to find or get in Canada.

Thanks guys~!

My KJW is my primary since 2 summers and I wouldn't change it for anything. Heard good things from the KWA, but the price is higher if you go for the KWA.

KJ is a beast gun and the one rifle I'll never sell. I love the thing, it always works and is solid all around. The KWA sounds like it's decent too but as audi_bhoy said it will be more expensive... and why bother when the KJ is better hehe ; D

The only reason that kinda stopping me is the tinted lower plastic receiver.

I have yet to see a full metal version in any Canadian retailers.

Nothing wrong with the plastic, I had it and it works fine. But I picked up a metal lower and now have an all metal M4 ; D

I (or my teammate lol) painted the plastic one, if I ever feel like swapping to a camo look.

Your not looking hard enough man, I don't own the KJW but I know plenty of individuals who own full metal ones. If you want a review on the the KWA though here ya go. I just bought 2 full metal KWA LM4 GBBRs this month. Just traded one of them for a G&P MAGPUL MOE M4 AEG. The KWA LM4 GBBR is a pretty decent GBBR, I mainly just use mine for target practice and gun training. Here's some pros and cons I noticed.

Pros:
- sturdy metal build, no wobbling parts.
- majority if not all internals are steel, made to last unlike other M4 GBBRs: WE cough! cough!
- realistic feel and weight
- the mags out perform all other GBBR mags, has the lowest cool down affect and can withstand cold temps = winter ready, great in Canada.
- considerable recoil to simulate realism, but the WE M4 GBBR is currently the fastest and hardest kicking GBBR M4 on the market
- made by KWA lol
- Don't really need any after market internal mods, but that depends on you.
- Feeding lip on the mags are plastic, bit this is good as thia will probably be the only part of the mag you'll ever need to replace or fix and its pretty cheap to do so.

Cons:
- customizability is very limited.
- You have to specific KWA mags for it which will cost you anywhere from $45-$50 depending on your local dealer/vendor.
- costly, but worth the money if you want it.
- buffer lock is weak, after purchase work may have to be done if you plan to run this gun in games on the long run.

Important tip, only run green gas on this gun, as its only meant for green gas. Propane will damage this gun if used. Plus green gas in not as harmful to you as propane is.

We can't direct you to online retailers as this isn't in the AV section though there is some, on this forum and out of it too.
