Reliable AK For around $200, suggestions?
 
Yup another one of these threads. Basically, new to airsoft want to pick up my first gun, AK's are pretty, only problem im on a budget of $200
Ive been lookin at the some sales they have at local Canadian airsoft sites that are located in Toronto, but being a noob, i know nothing :)

get age verified, and you will see the world
cyma is my suggestion
I smell this is a same user with a different name

At $200, you don't have much choice other than CYMA.
But just the gun and only $200 is not enough to start.

Too bad because when I was a noob, even though I knew nothing, I took the time to read and make my own reseaches on this forum.

So yes, you have the choice;

Being a noob, asking to be spoonfed, and getting flamed

OR

Being a newb (see ? newb =/= noob), read a lot, and AFTER ask the right questions.

Also, getting AV will show your motivation and seriousness.

Well im starting with the gun then gradually getting the other stuff once paycheck after paycheck comes in.
But yeah, been hearing good things about CYMA

You didn't fill in your location, but I can only imagine there is snow on the ground where you are. Unless you're hell bent on playing in your chosen venue asap, I'd recommend saving. Especially if you're on limited funds.
Use the winter as a chance to read and learn. You just joined up with our encyclopedia, use it to your advantage and get age verified.

I've heard and read alot of good things about the new full metal CYMAs and decided to get a CM040 to see if they're good or not. It was on sale for about $170. After receiving it, I can say that it will be my last purchase from them. Save your money and buy a LCT AK. CYMAs are not as solid externally as LCTs. You need to have a good base gun to do any upgrades.

bruce December 4th, 2013 22:54

I'm not saying CYMAs are totally shit but you'll need to do alot of custom work to get them to run great. I bought a Beta Project tactical AK and it looks exactly like a CYMA. Lot's of work had to be done to the Beta and now I have no problems using along with my LCTs in a game.

There's at least one good choice in the classifieds if you get AV'd.
