Marui or Jing Gong?

.Andrew. · August 6th, 2007, 13:18

I cant decide what M4 I should buy as a guy first starting out in airsoft. The guy from Anderson & Anderson airsoft told me that the $378.00 JG would be cheap and break in a matter of no time. And that i should pay 600 for the new marui. What do you guys think i should do. Has anyone used the JG?.

i have 6 JGs, none of them have broken

In my opinion I would buy the CA G36C it has a high cap and for stronger body and the finish on the CA is a flat black wich on the TM is almost brownish finish and it is 10 bucks cheaper.

He Asked for an M4 not a G36.

And Andrew, you should get a TM. And if you can, take a look on CA and ICS they are even better.

Ill take a look. Im still thinking if i wanna go for the M4 or somethign like a mp5. If i order from A&A and im going to have to get an age verification or anything? I am 18 but i just dont wanna go through the hassle of prooving im 18. I have my own credit card im sure that shows im 18.

If i got a mp5 or something id wanan go for a ETF or SWAT theme.

Above all else, consider your overall resources. If you buy a $600 TM, will you have enough money to buy other necessities? If you buy a $400 and it malfunctions, do you have the time, drive and know-how or know people who do to address that?

Not since Much Frackin' Music pre-paid crapstercard. Well, I suppose even before then, there was always credit card fraud or using your parent's card.

Well if i had to be age verified im sure it would say somethign before i went to checkout.

What does this mean, its for the JG M4. Is it saying id need a new charger?

"The battery is stored neatly within the handguard of this gun. Performance is decent at 330fps (.2g BBs). Body is made of ABS. So NOTE charger is 220V so you will need a different charger in Canada!"

The Saint · August 6th, 2007, 13:53

The charger is made for outlets and electricity standards over in Asia. For Canada, you'll need a charger made for North American outlets and standards.

Personally, I think you made a mistake not getting age verified and buying from the classifieds. It's not the hassle people always make it out to be and you could've saved a lot of money.

As for chargers, this is your best choice: http://www.bbbastard.com/

Pizza_Pie · August 6th, 2007, 13:54

Probably, but just to make sure you should email A&A

.Andrew. · August 6th, 2007, 13:57

is there any way i can be age verified without haveing to drive to like toronto or something to say yea im 18..?

Trader 762 · August 6th, 2007, 13:59

or you'll have to buy a plug in socket transformer, those suckers heat up pretty good when used. if you go with JG.

I just bought a CA M15A4 Carbine. My decision to pick CA over TM was the metal body. To upgrade a TM M4A1 to a metal body late is just too $$$.

Just remember, you pay for what you get.

surebet · August 6th, 2007, 14:00

Nope, face to face is the only way. But the savings on just the gun itself is worth the gas, imagine the rest.

.Andrew. · August 6th, 2007, 14:03

Maybe ill look into the CA stuff cause its the metal body i really want. There is a nice package on velocity arms, JG m4 with 6 mags charger and everythign for 600 bucks.

underground · August 6th, 2007, 14:04

Think of it this way, get age verified and we won't nag you about it in the future. Once you get verified, you gain access to more variety of guns that are either used or new guns at decent prices. I am sure if there are no reps in your part of town, I am certain there will be at least one rep at a game nearest you. Even so, contact the ontario reps to see which one is closest to you and work from there.

also, you can buy your transformers/convertors at say the source/london drugs/etc for roughly $30-40.

MY 2 cents: JG and let the gearbox parts wear out after a while. Then spend $150+ to get upgraded internals that are much better than TM stock.
