Quick question guys, what's a reasonable price for a vgc second hand King Arms M1A1? Any issues I should look out for?

Cheers
Joe

No-one got any idea? Does £100 sound fair?

If its the a real wood stock one then £100 would be a very good deal.

£100 for a faux wood stock version I would say is a fair price




Current Arsenal: ICS Grease Gun, ICS M1 Garand, MP40, Viva Arms Sten Mk2.

These for a short period of time could of been picked up for £100 on actionhobbies, but if you missed out the going price is normally higher. £100 sounds ok.

Looking lovely. The real wood definitely looks better.

Found some mags at a decent price (hi-caps though), now I've got to get the battery.

Am I right in thinking that I'm looking for a large type 8.4 3000ma?

For the normal WW2 shoot you will only need 1 Highcap. Although you can pick up a box of 5 King Arms mid caps for about £35 quid if your look around. (high caps are normally only to be used in single shot on most games to compensate for the user never having to reload!)

I have used a number of batterys in my thompson my original battery was a gold peak 8.4v 3700 which still works today being over 10 years old! But i have brought a couple of slower ni-mh 7.2V 3300 which are done by a company called vapextech. They slow the ROF down and being a 3300 they will last all weekend without needing to change battery. Search around you can pick the VP batteries up for between £10-15 and come in Large connectors or Deans depending on what you need.
