I recently got an SRC M16A4 from them. At splatters it was shooting 300 with .20 bastard bbs. Had a nice high ROF. The only things I didn't like about it was the front handguard was a little loose, the piston, and there seemed to be alot of extra wire in the full stock. When I cracked open the mechbox, it looked pretty good inside. THe mechbox was definately reenforced and there were metal bushings. It wasn't overly greased either. I replaced the piston with a stock TM one. I checked the shimming and it seemed good. I'm not sure how the gear will last but I've got a set of stock TMs in case the worst happens. The hopup was nice and tight so it won't back off after a few dozen rounds. The two 300rnd high caps don't seem t o have a problem feeding. This gun is going toa get a workout soon. I replaced the stock spring with a 1.4J so I'm looking forward to trying it out.

That's the same rifle I was looking at getting.

How sturdy is it? Nice feel to it? How's the barrel wobble and creak?

Thanks!

The front handguard is solid for mine, I only had a minor barrel wobble but that's cause the screw holding the outer barrel wasn't tight in the first place, got a hex wrench and it's solid now. As for the full stock I haven't had any issues with the wiring being too long. It's awesome right now

As for the release date on that video I believe the V2's started coming out in January, so that MAY be an older one ...but who knows. Don't take this statement of mine as fact :P I haven't paid too much attention to SRC until now.

Just got a delivery notice for my slither stock M4, was at school when the mail truck came so I gotta pick it up tomorrow. I'll add anything if I find anything weird about mine. I'll be rewiring mine to the rear in short order for a battery bag and maybe in the future a crane stock but I do like the plain jane look of a normal non-special forces uber l33t M4.

It's a nice solid rifle, good weight to it, delta ring spring is nice and strong. The motor seems comparable to a TM EG1000 though i've only put about 600 rounds thropugh it so far. If there is any barrel wobble it's probably because the set screws need tightening, mine were loose from shipping I expect. I haven't really found any creaking in it yet and I slung it aroudn my hosue yesterday and had it on for a few hours to and it was still good.

I think I may have been a bit biased on that, I custom wire all my guns so I was just really referring to personal preference.

[aZn_triXta07]

It is very nice and solid, yeah I love the sound of the gearbox, but it's not comparable to the upgraded V2 one I got sitting around, I may stick that in to checkout the compatiblity.

The site doesn't work for me...

I can enter, but there is a blank page after the banner page

checked the source code... and it's empty HTML...

[LUTNIT]

Weird, works for me, maybe try another browser?

[Starman33]

[Jimski]

they carry revolvers now, wooo-hoo!

the one they have is really lame though.
gotta have them order some 8 inch barrels...

Just got my SRC M4A1....

-tip was painted orange, laquer thinner and a propane torch couldn't remove the paint, had to scratch it up with a dremel
-bolt jammed, dust cover didn't open, forced it a LITTLE (barely any more than normal force) and the tab that holds the dust cover closed snapped right off. Dust cover doesn't stay closed anymore, no big deal since its not a rare part or anything and works find with it open.
-slither stock is really wobbly, going to stick some 100mph tape on it to tighten it
-I think it may be shooting harder than advertised. It said 280fps on the site but it can easily go clear through both sides of a pop can so I'm thinking its more in the low 300's
-the two hicaps it came with work in my CA G36 with private parts armalite magwell conversion and my STAR L85. My STAR mags and CA mags (highs and lows for both) work fine in the SRC M4A1
-metal body seems to be really well done. It doesn't noticeably weigh less than my CA M15A4, no cracks, mold lines, flash, or air bubbles in it or the plastic parts.
-Had to tighten the bolts on the barrel same as everyone else to get rid of the barrel wobble but now its all solid.

Overall I'm quite happy with the quality and with buyairsoft.ca's service again. I've only shot about 100 rounds through it but it'll be used in a game this Saturday for its trial by fire

read some good reviews about the JG/Echo1 m4a1. Really does seem to outperform a TM m4a1 (except for cosmetic wise). I wanted a CA m15a4 at first but i read that the JG m4a1 uses some CA internals (gears or something) so its almost comparible? As for the gun weight, can someone tell me approx range the TM and CA weigh? According to many sources, JG weighs exactly or close to the TM. I know the TM is mainly made of ABS plastic but the CA has more metal possibly, I just want to know if they weigh almost the same since i want a gun that weighs closer to the real steel.

[medhatboy]

My CA weights a lot more then my friends TM by at least 1-2 lbs.

[Mist3r.B]

Does someone konw where they're located (province)?
