thoughts on ECHO1 G36C

What do you guys think about this gun?

Very very good gun, my friend has it and it rocks. good fps, rof, accuracy, mag capacity, and pretty decent externals, a very sturdy gun. overall a really good gun.

is the battery a big concern will it last about 4-6 hours?

Easily, the battery isn't much of a concern, although if you do play for extended periods of time buying another battery wouldn't hurt.

thanks.

the only caution is the pin that attaches the folding stock on my friend's just randomly fell out one day, so watch out for that.

should I buy one now or should I wait but I'm afraid If I wait they'll be out of stock in a week?

No, i think it was while he was folding it and he had owned it 10 months already, but you should be fine.

Ok, I would buy it now, what about the VA mp5?

What about it?

Here's my 2 cents.

The E1 G36C is the best out of all the regular E1s overall. But, it is not as good as the Vector Arm guns or the 416.

I would look into the VA MP5, but if you don't want to pay more and you like G36Cs, it's a great gun. I love mine.

does the E1 G36c have sling mounts on it?

^Yes, all G36Cs have sling mounts.

If they have them in stock on airsoftgi.com do you think I can wait until tomorrow to purchase it....or will it be to late?

well they aren't in stock at airsoftgi. Unless you want a G36C, I would get the full stock VA MP5. Trust me, it's a better gun. It's only like 20 bucks cheaper and you get a full metal gun, higher fps, and an RIS system. It's in stock too

yeah u less u insist in getting the G36

I'm having the dillema between getting the ECHO1 G36C or the VA MP5 A4, should i spend the 20 dollars more for the VA?

the only thhing abou the VA MP5 (which is why i didn't gey it) is that its battery gose in the fore grip and i HATE foregrips

The battery goes in the G36c's fore grip...

sorry i ment the verticle fore grip

but you can buy the full stock version if you don't want the battery in the vertical grip....................

or you can mod it. BTW Get the VA MP5A4 with a full stock. Houses a bigger battery than G36 and the A5 version.

You don't need a bigger battery it just weighs you down.

Sure it lasts longer but I mean unless you shoot a lot or play for three days straight you don't need that big of a battery.

Also you can buy more than one battery.

IMO, its hard to put a battery into a forgrip for a MP5A5 I have never tried on a VA but it is kinda a pain for the G36. Also, What wound you call a 1400 MaH battery on a TM, it wont last as long as another one. TMs for some reason seem to take the batterylife away faster

the fullstock version is the one i'm looking into, so the battery is housed there. from what i've read the battery is somewhat of a non-issue, no problems
