D boys vs JG

I've been recently pretty intrigued with the barret m468 to realize it's just an m4 s system haha...

Comparing d boys and jg, both clone brands...

How would u know which one is better?
I've had a D boys quick loader... and it was shit... my king arms one is so much better compared to it, but they both jam.
Any input is appreciated =]

JG defiantly, and just to let you know, a speed loader usually doesn't show the quality of guns

Most of these issues have been fixed with the newer JG's.

v3 boxes go in guns such as AK's G36's and XM8's
v2 boxes go in M series guns such as M4's and M16's

every dboys box I've owned came with plastic bushings, but I know that some of their newer guns do come with metal bushings and the same goes for JG. Echo1 which rebrands JG puts metal bushings in I have heard.

Just find out the specs from the person or retailer selling the gun before buying it, simple as that.

^ k thnx

*sigh* man I'm still lost if I should get JG or D boys...
JG has a better rep, and has engraved fire selection states, no mag issues...
D BOYS have been known to have cracks between receivers, loose mags and bad paint jobs... but it's metal O_O for around the same price....

Overal JG's are better quality and are one of the best clones out there (getting pretty close to TM with some of their models), but if you don't mind spending some cash in upgrading the internals then go for the Dboys which comes with metal construction, cause in most cases the internal upgrades will end up cheaper than a metal body. But by all means if you can find one of them newer JG's with metal construction then go for that instead.

I have two all metal JG's (Jing Gong) and they are both awesome!

JG - MP5 Navy


Jing Gong - W4 S-System Carbine


They are both later versions of these models, and I have never had any trouble with.

I did own a very early version of the JG MP5 which was mostly plastic, and it wasn't very good at all.


As long as you go with one of the all metal versions, I think that you will be very happy, I know I am! :tup:



Later

The body may contain some traces, you never know with china clones. And A&K is a China Brand as well.

And Old School Punk, that early version JG Mp5 you have is not a JG it is a WELL.
