Your first AEG and your opinions about it?

Stephen Tomlinson · April 17th, 2011, 21:18

As the name states i want to know what you guys had as your first AEG. Also, state if it works and how long you have had it also, give some pros and cons on the gun compared to your favourite AEG to date. I'm 17 and my birthday is coming up and i'm looking to get verified soon and get a little something something from the classifieds.

p.s If i get verified do i have to be active monthly (via matches or re-verification)? i have school and such.

EDIT! POST PICS

Once you are verified its done, but you can have it removed for various reasons but that usually never happens. Your first gun should be either a:

M4
MP5
AK 47

Why because everyone has them, which means basically everyone can help you with problems plus there are tons of upgrades and parts to choose from.

My first AEG is a KWA G36c, simply because I've always liked that model. Had some trouble finding a vest that can hold the magazines (biggest mags out there, you can fit two M4 magazines into the same pouch I put one G36 mag) but nothing major.

I've had it for three months now, but the gun itself is a little more than a year old. Gamed it only once so far. After some hopup adjustments it shoots hard and straight. Great solid gun. Cant compare it to my other AEG because this one is my 'outdoor' gun and the other is my 'indoor' gun!

First, Second and Third were all M4's

First was a TM, then a ICS finally a Ares.

Love all my guns, only regret buying the ICS because it's the cansoft version.

First was a TM Fullstock Ak47..

It was great, But I spent the same amount on it and 8 mags that I could spend today on a RS SVD.

Shit was expensive back then.

Cansoft is a nickname for Canadian legal guns. It means they are half black and half clear receiver. Ken at 007 does sell cansoft but I think he also sells full black guns. Do yourself the favor and wait until you are 18. Get age verified, once that happens all the good stuff on ASC becomes available to you.

First gun was a CYMA AK74 (CM.031) mechbox sounded like crap and only used it for 2 games before selling it.

p.s please guys continue with the stories of your first AEGs

SHaKaL · April 18th, 2011, 00:48

First was an ICS M4A1 carbine. Had it for 3 seasons without a problem except the motor that i had to change for an TM. Loved it to

Now i have a We M4 gbbr that is untested as now... Can't wait to use it!

First AEG was a G&G MP5A5 and it was a lemon right out the box

Styrak · April 18th, 2011, 01:30

WELL MP5. It was a piece of shit that shot 230fps, but it got me through my first milsim!

Kos-Mos · April 18th, 2011, 05:08

TM AUG.

The gun was in so-so shape. I learnt how to fix guns on it. Was reliable as hell and ran it one year (about 10 games) on 11.1v LiPo. At that time, people where using NiCd and crap wall chargers, so a gun shooting 25bb/sec was considered a monster. That was 5 years ago.

Second was a TM P90.

Mags are a pain to get... especially with the fake bullets and no clone/other brand at the time. Gun was incredibly quiet. Easiest mechbox to work on by far (except for ICS' split).

First gun was an ICS M4, great gun. Only thing i didn't like about ti was that you couldn't put many after market parts in it. Other than that it was quite good.
Now i have an ARES M4 RIS 2, used it yesterday in a game for the first time and it's fair to say i was thoroughly impressed by it's performance.
