Post by 8ace (Dec 4, 2006)



I'm not sure which guns i want to get before the VCR ACT comes into force

Do i get

Custom STEN from modelguncollector

or

a hudson STEN and Thompson M1A1

Well, I do not yet have any of these models, but after talking to Claymore and Cerwyn I´d say get that custom Sten from MGCUK. It is a well made, very realistic, reliable and durable modelgun. And it is well worth its price.

I wouldnt call me a mad fan of these as they can be very expensive new.I own an M16A1 and abs MP40-both Marushin PFC guns and an AK47 by Hudson i have owned for about 10 years-not sure if PFC.

I guess i have caught the bug somewhat as ive got a Hudson Grease gun on the way an a Marui P38 pistol-both bought used so i could afford them!!!

If i had the cash i think id buy one of everything,who wouldnt

Hiya 8ace

Well if I were you I would go for the steel Sten from MGCUK without hesitation, and then get a MGC 1921 model Thompson.
I have the Sten, as you know, and it's superb, you will not be disappointed, believe me!
As for the Thompson, I've 2 of the MGC 1921 models, one Military and the other's a Chigago type, both superb models and readily available too for good prices.
Reading through past posts it seems the Hudson Sten and M1A1 Thompson can be troublesome.

Hey Richard, glad you got the bug at last mate The Hudson Grease Gun is a really good performer (use MGC pistons in the rounds though). Marui's P38 isn't anywhere near as good as other modelguns. It's rather fragile, can be a sod to load so don't expect too much from it...

A couple of reasonably-priced pistols probably.... I'd like to get hold of something Sig shaped, a hudson DE, and an MGC Colt 45 of some kind.

Tanaka will also have an M870 gas-in-shell airsoft thing out soon so I'm hoping a modelgun release also follows

If (IF ONLY) I had some spare cash I'd really like a reliable, working AK47
If (HAH) money was no object an MP44...

We can dream at least, even if THE MAN says we can't have any more.

Just dont know on this one as i already have an MGC sterling and MP40 which are sought sfter must haves and spent a fortune in the last part of 2005 and early 2006 buying every model gun i could as the VCR bill seemed imminent then. So in these last few months i want to buy something but i have no idea what.

Well, if it is the last chance to buy a model gun, go for it big time and get a minigun!

Hardly ever fire any of my guns so not that bothered-more for display
