Supporters Lozart Posted February 1, 2016 Supporters Posted February 1, 2016 Just looking for anyone with direct experience of this gun really - looking to build a Mk18 for not loads of money and wondered if it was a decent enough platform to start from. I know the rail is plastic but what how does it mount to the receiver? Is it capable of taking a metal rail at a later stage if so desired? Is the gun generally decent or am I going to spend the same again replacing the guts? Have at it! Note - I'd rather have people with direct experience answer than a guy who saw his brothers mates uncle using one on youtube once. Cheers.
Alpha.s1 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Had 1 as my starter gun, from the start of 2015 still going reliably, while it is plastic, it is a nice plastic so to speak, and you don't really notice the difference, i did replace the standard rail with a cheapo metal keymod rail, which fit easily enough, it takes a special tool to get the barrel nut off though. Ive had no issues as of the moment, range could be better, but being a combat machine, its t be expected. Hope that helps as a amateur view (Oops missed a year out i mean 2014, lost track a bit) Lozart 1
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted February 1, 2016 Supporters Posted February 1, 2016 http://airsoftzone.co.uk/delta-ring-tool-for-r8-cm18-rush-gng?filter_name=tool out of stock but I'm sure you could improvise something nice gun but dunno how far you would go as its still a Combat Machine but a nice CM - one of my favourites with its 2-tone black/tan/black effect s/hand one on offer ??? coz if buying new think I'd be tempted to look at a FFR 2 with newer style receivers no white CM plus 3 rnd burst already fitted at same price as CM18 (I know you said about a mk18 project but if changing front end maybe look at the new SR FFR ones with new receivers) But if a s/hand CM18 came up then go for it sir
Sacarathe Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I had not noticed the rails was plastic. That explains a lot. Where was this thread a few months ago, just started taking mine apart. Lozart, do you know if the G&P (cw) outer barrels will work in this G&G body?

Lozart, do you know if the G&P (cw) outer barrels will work in this G&G body? From my experience they do not fit.
