which gun, CYMA AK-74 or BE Steyr AUG

A friend is going to buy an AEG and she is not like serious. A friend is selling this gun

http://www.airsplat.com/Items/ER-BE-M8-SteyrM.htm

I think she should buy this

http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=139_24_134&products_id=2881

what do you think?

how much is she willing to spend, and how much is your friend selling the aug for?

That is a hard choice. I don't think CYMA is a very reliable company, so i would try to stay away from them. But i must say there AK-74 looks sweet.
I think i would go with the AUG.

brand new 70

lol, though cheaper than what airsplat is selling it for, its not worth it. Go with the Ak74. If she does decide to get into the sport at least this way she'll have a a cheap reliable gun.

Also tell her to look here, if she's undecided about what kind of gun she wants.

get the AK 47, I have heard that the CYMA makes decent AK47s, and it is one of their better designs

I say AUG, merely because of the compactness and high ROF.

I would say that, but I dont know if the rate of fire would be good on a BE AUG for $89, I would expect more of a slower rate of fire

I am only saying that because I have used the gun before. Generally, that's a good assumption though.

So? The BE guns arent very good. Infact, id say paying more than 60 isnt worth it. The gun will most probably have problems, even if it is new. BE is not a proven brand, and as far as im concerned not worth considering. CYMA, with their latest products, have shown a gigantic leap in improvement.

If your friend really doesnt want to spend ~$100 then ok, get the BE. Otherwise, i think they would be making a mistake.

The CYMA is only 80


I'll talk to her

Holy crap? Is this site for real? I mean, is it reliable?

^^^Yes, but you have to have a minimum order of $100.

It is reliable. I bought my CM.030 w/goodies from them. and like Cpt. Crunch said, the minimum order is $100 though.

Wow, to bad there is not TM P90. But other than that, it looks like a great site. Is CYMA a reliable company? I have thought about getting one, but i have heard that they are not very good.

I know they are horrible, or at least their AEPs are horrible, anyways, I heard all there guns arent very good, except for the exception of the AK which is OK qaulity

Almost all AEPs are not very good.

good point, but still thier rifles are still horrible, in a way, trust me, they also cost as much as thier AEPs

Yeah i know.

lol

OK, you both have no clue what ur talking about. First do either of you own one of their AEP's? if you dont stop talking about them, because unless you have one few people are interested in what you have to say about them. Second CYMA, has improved greatly. And is many times better than BE-Tech. Ive owned a Be-tech G36k, it sucked. Plastic quality was terrible pieces broke off in the first few weeks of owning it. Gear box had shoddy wiring, gun would sometimes stop firing mid trigger pull on full auto. I highly doubt CYMA could be any worse. Now ofcousre if you get one of their plastic gearbx guns, yes its going to suck, i have owned one, the Cm.023, and my friend owned the cm.022. theyve both broken down after maybe 1500> shots. BUT that was a plastic gearbox, which i highly doubt was anywhere near the quality of there metal gear boxes. Seriously if you really need to be assured look for reviews on CYMA's latest offerings. And the same for BE, though BE hasnt released any new models yet, atleast not here anyways.

yeah, I have owned a CYMA G18, broke very quickly, had it for a week, and after that it broke down. I would shoot, and you can hear the sound of the motor revving up, but it wouldnt shoot, I have had a very bad experience with their AEPs

the answer is easy, it was a lemon. Now if you had bought two, or three and you had the same problem repeat itself, then yes id agree with your statements above. But seeing as i have put over 2000rnds through mine, id say its pretty reliable. i think the other owners of cm.030's, on this site would agree with me. (besides you that is).

I DON'T CARE ABOUT AEPS! I want to know about the CYMA AK-47, so can we please get back on topic.

I don't want to sound harsh, but I don't care about the CYMA AEPs.
