too much info in my head Im confused!!!

Im interested in purchasing my first GBB.ive been doing alot of research over the yrs.. alot has changed since i started. anyway!!!


Budget $250 Canadian so im going used!

there is a good chance that i will not be out to play game until next yr. (Not sure if im ready to spend the $$$$$)

Reason i would like to get a GBB. i like to take pictures so id like something that looks sexy.. (Practice)

after that she is going into a small display case to be put up on the shelf!

2 that i have seen so far on the forum are

http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=91695



http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=90874




Both are sexy guns in the bone stock forum to me.. Im REALLY a fan of the TM more then the WA. but the TM has no mag. what are they about $60-70?

Now there will be some slight upgrades to the gun. Metal slide.. spring.. valve etc. small things not alot.

from what i understand the Tm has a HUGE line of upgrades as the WA are more on the difficult side to locate.

Am i correct?

in your opinion what is the better choice.???

the Wa does seem to have a feeding issue. good way to learn the workings of the gun if i ever do decide to take this further?
would it be a simple fix? can the parts be had if i need to order something!

Thanks for the time!

Ok I am biased but you can get a new TM 5.1 mag for $50 CDN give or take a few bucks.

I would say, for a wall-hanger, go with the WA.

If you plan to transition into gaming, go with the TM.

However, if you do indeed plan on upgrading, TM parts are much easier to find, especially in Canada.

TM for sure, although I would be surprised if you couldn't find a new one with a mag included for not much more.

Also, If you need high-capa mags, ILLussion is selling them on epic sale for $32 in country. I bought 2

Ahh, didn't see that.

And the mags are interchangable. I would happily sacrifice those two extra rounds per mag to get them for that much cheaper.
