starblade54 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 yes, among other issues like quality and that kind of thing, but mostly they dont like to feed that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 If you would like something really inexpensive, and a great first gun that is light, compact, has decent range, might I suggest the CYMA AK 74. It's cheap, but sturdy, and has a side folding stock. Mags are cheap, and plentiful. You can purchase the ris front hand gurd for 35.00 bucks through Evike, and it is a tack driver. I've owned 1,and just bought another from Comrade Harvest. Peli has owned one, and everyone will tell you they are awesome. Don't count it out, just look into it. You can usually pick a used one up for around 100 bucks, or spend the money and get a new one for around 130.00. But that's jut my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 @ Star - I wish you didnt tell me that haha. @ Echo - Thanks for the advice. Several people have commented about that specific model. My wife is off today so I'm making her butt do some research on the weapon she wants herself. I showed her this thread and let her read through the many suggestions that you awesome people have posted. Whatever/whenever she actually buys I'll let everyone know as common courtesy. Thanks AI.

Vacceo Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 lol yeah my wife is somewhat short I guess. She is just small in all aspects. She held my M4 for like 5 minutes and said it made her arms hurt. My M4 is all metal, however. She just specifically wants a smaller weapon for the CQC format.Then, forget about an AK, they are on average heavier than an AR. I´d go for a G36C.

Gadoris Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I think you may be too late Pablo. I would say the same thing, or a ump 45 like airmanshu has for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacceo Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 The UMP is basically a G36 with different externals. In ergonomic terms it´s not even that different. Mags can be a bit picky with pouches but other than that, it´s basically the same gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Its the 28th... what did she decide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 I actually just finalized a trade online. I'm trading my KWA USP for a TM Mp5k. He wanted a good side arm, the wife wanted a smaller AEG and I'm looking to get myself a smaller sidearm anyways so I feel as if I couldn't find a better deal. This is what I'm getting in the trade. http://s726.photobucket.com/user/ajharl/library/TM%20MP5K%20for%20sale?sort=3&page=1 While it's not the hardest hitting gun and really only limited to indoor games, my wife has made it a point that outdoor games do not sound as much fun to her. So, worst case scenario, she hates it and it becomes mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SASQUATCH Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Damn. Good find! I'm not a big MP5 fan, but TM's are great guns. Don't let the FPS fool you. TM's are known for their range, and accuracy. Damn good find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endgame Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Damn. Good find! I'm not a big MP5 fan, but TM's are great guns. Don't let the FPS fool you. TM's are known for their range, and accuracy. Damn good find.I second this.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrturner Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Damn... color me jealous. Been trying to find an MP5k for years to run with the 60. Looks like a fantastic trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Thanks guys. I was pretty happy with it. Will try it out at IIA in the next few weeks and post feedback on the Mp5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
targetpractice Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Neat! And it's got some pretty cool accessories too. You ought to put it in an aluminum briefcase, with the foam cut-outs, like those assassins in the movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Alright guys I finally received it in the mail today and I have to say that my wife and I were very happy with its performance. She was simply doing some plinking outside and man for a low fps it shoots very hard. Of course, she wanted to shoot me for some reason other than she's evil. All in all I think she will be very well off with it. It really is a perfect sized gun for her even with the crane stock mod on. Good stuff. Good stuff indeed.

Kermit Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) +1 On Cyma AKs. The Internals are great, they shoot great out of the box, and the internals are pretty good. Only thing is a they are a bit heavy because of being all steel, but not really bad. Cyma cm.035a would be a good one because of being small. KWA CQRs are OK, Classic army sportline series is OK, IMO combat machines are garbage. Edit: Sorry, I'm late again, hehe. Just read first page.
