Guarder spring guide
CA M15 Sniper Grip w/Low Noise Plate

if the KWA hasn't been opened and is like new. Buy it. Who knows what has been done to, or damaged in the CA.

elkgrove07 January 6th, 2010 16:51

It's opened and the guy put around 2000 bb through it.

ShelledPants January 6th, 2010 16:52

You in Canada or elsewhere?

elkgrove07 January 6th, 2010 16:59

StrikeFreedom January 6th, 2010 17:08

Upgrades are only worth their salt if the person who installed them are competent. Used upgrades are worth less.

Buy a brand new gun. Seriously. CA/KWA... Whatever. Used, at those prices, are bad.

elkgrove07 January 6th, 2010 17:23

But the KWA is not brand new. It's been used. The guy put around 2000 round through it in his backyard. The gun never been to a game though.

Go to a store. Buy one there. 2k rounds is potentially more then $50 of damage.

elkgrove07 January 6th, 2010 17:44

Oh, I thought you were talking about used KWA. Thanks

People also need to value their time.

if it takes you 5 hours to fix the gun, and you value your time at $10 an hour. You might as well have just bought a new one.

Steven January 6th, 2010 17:52

There yah go.....

If only our CA's were under 400$.....

theguy January 6th, 2010 18:39

for ~$300,you can get a number of high end M4s..

G&P, VFC, CA come to mind.

BORDENSNIPER January 7th, 2010 01:08

KWA period.

Buy it brand new for that much.

StrikeFreedom January 7th, 2010 01:14

Or you can come north and get a Cansoft.

Rock 'N' Roll Outlaw January 7th, 2010 04:42

Why would you wish that upon someone who lives in a nation that allows them to get the real thing without the hassle we do?!

elkgrove07 January 7th, 2010 12:38

I can get a SKS for that much.

SHÖCK January 7th, 2010 13:54

The specs on the upgrades on the CA are pretty high end. Inspect it yourself or get a gun doctor to inspect it.

I would go for the CA personally. You are in the US though, you have a lot of choice, used or new. We don't have that here.

And you can get a Norinco M14S here for about $400 whereas a TM M14 will run you between $600-$1000 here in Canuckistan.
