Question about GBB gun

Hi guys !

Now that i got my first 2 AEG i was wondering what would be a good choice for a good sidearm handgun...

Should i stay with TM ? i really like the look and style of the Glock Advance
should i get one with a metal slide etc ....

oh and can i use propane with all guns or do i need green gas ?

Thanks

Yes. Unless you're using something like a WA, where you need to use duster because propane will break it.

You will need a propane tank adaptor, and some silicone oil.

Why does no one ever recommend HFC?
I've haven't seen a better performing GBB yet...

co-worker of mine got a dark hawk. it's a lemon.

hop does not work, bb's fall out of the barrel, and every shot, the slide jams half-way.

as for ti-built ksc's, i must have lucked out. my usp works flawlessly and is more powerful than his propane powered lemon.

well as good as it might be, its brand name is not as sucessful (no offense) compared to TM KSC KJW yet; HFC has vastly improved over these years (their stuff used to be in bad quality and unreliable) more and more people using HFC recently. Anotehr important aspect is customer loyalty.

If you like having realistic trades on your gun, HFC isn't for you. The M190 series seems to have alot of success compared to dark hawks, maybe because more people buy dark hawks? Anyway I've never seen a GBB shoot better stock, and if it came broken you can always return it for one that works
TM is always plastic, so that's a big turn off for me. KJW is a second favorite for me.

I have the KJW Sig P226, and I love it! Full metal design, heavy and rock solid. Parts are compatible with the TM one, except the mag. The gun have a rail under the barrel so you can mount a light or a laser. Really a good gun to get if it's your first GBB gun, won't let you down. Only downside is the lack of real trades on the gun, not a big deal if it's a "field" gun and not a "display" piece

I was thinking about getting a glock 17 maybe (the one with metal slide on AAsurplus.ca) from KSC or the glock advance from TM

Wich one is the best choice ?

They're both good. You choose. We're not going to tell you, and you probably wouldn't listen anyway, right? It's more of a personal preference when you get into that level of quality.
