time to get your thoughtsWell here we are, it’s taken me a few days to gather all the data that you guys gave me regarding what you thought about some airsoft companies and their products. But before we delve into what I have found maybe we should start with what this is all about. A few days ago on my Facebook page CraftySnipersAirsoftPage I asked for your thoughts on different airsoft companies. We all have been buying their products for years, but just how good are these companies and do some of them have issues that only us customers have picked up on over the years. Let’s start with a few of the comments that was mentioned on the post…… Best consistent brand : Cyma, I've got G&G and it’s never failed me, Ares - truly shocking Krytac all day long Now this question was asked on my page, it was also shared across to the Lincolnshire Airsoft Club page. Plus it was shared to a page on Instagram. Safe to say there was a lot of answers and comments regarding this subject. I myself have been airsofting for around 6 years and I love the sport. Even though I have some pretty awesome replicas in my collection I too have received some lemons. I have seen reviews from other YouTube channels showing off bad replicas. Some from companies that they were expected to come from and some from companies that should of known better. In my research for this blog post I have come across the same comments from some well established companies, and I have been pointed towards some companies that I have had very little to do with over the years that I have been involved with in the sport. So let's jump straight in and share what I have found. Tokyo Marui…… What can I say about them that has not been said about before? They have been around for years, they have created the field and then dominated it. They were around in the early days of the sport and they are still here knocking out new designs. I too have lots of their products, I am rocking a SCAR-H recoil rifle as my primary electric rifle. A lot of you guys feel the same way about Tokyo Marui as I do but that doesn't mean that there is not some very small issues. They can be a tad pricey especially the recoil series and there gas blow backs. This could be put down to the quality but you can not get away from the fact that they are very pricey. G&G…… This was the company that started it all off for me and I dare say I am not alone in that fact. My first replica was the G&G Carbine M4. A staple rifle of the new airsofter and a very good rental option for clubs up and down the country. They have been steadily churning out new models of old replicas as well as creating new designs. If it exists in real steel then I am pretty sure G&G have created an airsoft replica. They create almost every type of airsoft replica including electric, gas blowback pistol, gas blowback rifle. Silverback….... A relative newcomer to the airsoft show and a very small company when compared to the above companies. They so far have only launched the SRS bolt action sniper rifle. However this has turned out to pretty much blow all other sniper rifles clean out of the water for quality and end result. There customer support is legendary, always answering people questions and going as far as replacing parts of rifles very quickly. I don’t need to tell you guys that I am a huge fan of the SRS and Silverback, they are simply awesome. The only slight issues are that there products are very expensive and they only make the SRS rifle so far, this will be changing very soon with the soon to be released HTI 50bmg sniper rifle and the MDR later in the year which will be an electric rifle. Krytac…… This is a company that I have had very little to do with. I do not own any of there replicas but I have used a few of them for small amounts of time at events. I was very impressed with there internal quality and external qualities. I was very very impressed with the Kriss Vector. This is something that is familiar yet different, a hard trick to pull in airsoft. The Kriss Vector is a small product but it also looks different then the normal breed of airsoft replicas. That been said I did hear of Krytac owners having issues with some of the build quality of their products. This was a few years ago and I am sure that this has been fixed. This is the first four companies that I have worked on for this post. Do not worry their are others. These will be added to a new post which will be released very soon. I hope you have enjoyed this first half of this article as much as I enjoyed researching and writing it.
