scott3146 Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 Hi, I'm new to Airsoft so don't know which brand is best for what guns etc but I want to get an mp5 with a retractable stock but wanted to know what was best out of a cyma, G&G, SRC or if there are any better brands than them G&G TGM A3 RTS ETU CYMA CM.041J High Speed Series SRC MP5 A3 Ace Line AEG I have also seen the Tokyo marui PM5A5 next gen recoil so is it worth just saving my money and getting that one?
Impulse Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 A similar conversation was had a week or so ago, so I'd advise having a look there: Schnitz and Rogerborg 1 1
Schnitz Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 I was the op in the above thread and I ended up going the cyma platinum route. Only had 2 games with it but so far I'm very pleased with it. Other than switching out the hop rubber I really don't think it needs anything doing to it ? Rogerborg 1
scott3146 Posted February 12, 2023 Author Posted February 12, 2023 Ah right, the only thing putting me off cyma is the reports of the internals not being the best but they'd be ideal because they're affordable
Tiercel Posted February 12, 2023 Posted February 12, 2023 If I had to go for a Chinese brand, Cyma is probably the one Id go for. Their AKs are brilliant for the price, dont know much about their MP5s but theyve really upped their game in recent years so if its a new model Id be happy to give it a go if it were me. Are Classic Army still around? Might be showing my age a bit now but for a while they were widely regarded as some of the best MP5s you could get and for not a lot of money either. Just had a quick look and theres still a few retailers selling them so might be worth a look.

They're built to run at around 1.5J, and are under-stressed when sprung down to UK limits. I'd have no concerns about reliability. As the de facto standard (just through volume of sales) you'll generally find aftermarket parts will work in them, if you do want to "upgrade" anything. I say "upgrade" as the best airseal that I have is on an £80 CM.516 with the stock plastic single-o-ring piston and plastic nozzle with no o-ring.
scott3146 Posted February 13, 2023 Author Posted February 13, 2023 So something like a CYMA CM.041J High Speed Series would be good? What about the g&g mp5 are they any better?
