Just cast my vote on the location thingy and see im the only Welshman in the village :cry: :cry: :cry: .

Found my way here on my search for an Airsoft Mp40.
Im afraid im not an Airsofter as such and know very little about the guns although i have in the past(many years ago)owned a few cheap spring guns for plinking in the house.
My main passion is everything WW2 so kind of thought that this forum might also be relevant?
I have been collecting now(on a tight budget)for around 20 years now Brit,US and German stuff.Some original bits but due to cost a lot of repro stuff of which im more than happy with :wink: .

Have probably left it too late now to find an Mp40 at a decent price due to the bollox VCR but i have all my fingers crossed :lol:

Thanks

Liam

Welcome to CiA Liam,

Hope u manage to get the MP40 your looking for.

There are 2 Airsoft MP40's as far as I know:-

1. TOP MP40 - rare and expensive(Bellows System)
2. AGM MP40 - Common and Cheap(well it is prior to 1st Oct) lol

The AGM MP40 comes in 2 versions - Black or Bakelite panels, but everything else is the same.

Del

All the ones for under £200 are the same . In the long ago past pre Chinese Cheapsofting ( ...er 12 months ago) there was only one on offer, well expensive and not very reliable...most owenrs have now converted them inot paperweights :wink:
These Chinese ones are well cheap and quite good for the money , although the batteries and chargers are a lil dubious .
Anyhoo welcome ot the forum , whether you decide to airsoft or not :D

Hi there - welcome. It's a well solid piece of kit - if you do end up airsofting with it, your arms might ache a bit after a few hours - :lol: Mine do anyway - maybe I'm just out of condition - :oops:

By the way, you're not the only Welshman in the village. I'm a quarter Welsh, and as far as I know Gadge is half Welsh so that makes at least one 3/4 of a Welshman!
