Andyroo89 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Hello! was going to purchase a g&g top tech TR15 Raider L from pro airsoft supplies but they are out of stock till the end of march!!! i was wondering if A there is a different make to g&g (must be fully metal and an m4 style) that is actually better... even if more expensive.. (raider L £290) B there is another stockist of g&g guns... i have done quite a bit of googling but had no luck! Andy

Andyroo89 Posted February 12, 2013 Author Posted February 12, 2013 picture 1, dont want the older front stock as want ability to have attachments at front. picture 2, has same length barrel as raider l, but is 10cm longer (wont be as good for close quarter) and want crane stock for battery placement. picture 3, want collapsible stock and the ris? rail at front. picture 4, as above.. probably sound like im being awkward but i have done a lot of research, the raider l comes with the longest of the m4 variant barrels without too much extra length compared to 275mm barrels i was originally going to get the standard raider but was told by pro airsoft that the L will make a difference for outdoor skirmishes due to longer range..

Hibernator Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Ahhh! So you want an alternative to the TR15 that is exactly the same as a TR15??? The longer barrel won't have that much effect on range at all to be honest, it's a bit of an airsoft myth. It's mainly down to hop and rubber quality and set up. Land Warrior and Airsoft World both have a big range of G&G guns!
dazzer306 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Try zeroone airsoft or type in the exact gun you want in google and go to pictures this will show a pic and in bottom left will tell you where it is .

Tramples Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I just got the xl version from a Facebook sale and the only plastic I found is the stock. Surprised by the weight in fact. Had the same issue with stock when a Facebook ad popped up with just what I was looking for plus plenty of extra bits. Looking forward to taking it out at the weekend.

Andy Doughnuts you say.....? I know you've managed to get the Raider you were after but it's worth bearing in mind that the length measurement you may have seen would very probably been with the stock collapsed to its minimum length. Which won't be very usable unless you have very short arms!
