G&G GR16 Commando Plastic Xmas Special

Im not sure if this is supposed to go in high end but i thought it goes here so....Im just wondering if this is a good deal? I think its amazing! And im also wondering if the battery and charger that comes with it are good? Also ASGI says it shoots 380 is that about right?

It belongs in high end, it is an excellent deal.

Most v3 G&Gs shoot between 350-400 roughly, so yes that is probably right.

So is the battery and charger any good?

I mean a charger is a charger, I dont really see how it could be bad...but I have heard stories...As long as it charges the battery your good to go. The battery on the other hand can be a piece of poop, or it could be fine. I am guessing they are not throwing in some cruddy battery, but thats just my wishfull thinking. Anyways a mini battery cost like 20 bucks so its not that big of a deal, you should have atleast 2 batteries anyways. And if you are worried about charging you can always get a smart charger.

Ok, a charger is not a charger. A good charger will charge your battery in a fraction of the time of a wall charger, and will not overcharge it. A wall charger can take hours to charge, and will easily fry your battery. Even if it doesn't get fried, it will still only last a fraction of the time as it would if you used a smart charger.

We are getting ot but...Not exactly, first of all a wall charger wont fry your battery if you know what you are doing...There is a simple equation to find out how many hours it takes...as long as you charge it the right time it wont fry...secondly if I charge my battery fully with my wall charger for the right amount of time, it should last just as long as a smart charger, not a fraction of the time. Yes, a smart charger will do it faster and stop when it is done, but its not going to make the battery last any longer than a wall charger would, as long as you use the wall charger right. They are both chargers, one just charges it faster and stops when the battery is fully charged. Neither one makes the battery last longer (as long as you do them right).

With a smart charger, you also have the option if several different settings, as well as the ability to trickle charge or discharge your battery.

I have ordered that gun from gi, to me it looks like an 8.4v, so I ordered a 9.6v as well.

I will tell you how good it is when I get it.

That depends on the charger, if you want some of those extra things you will have to pay more for them. Some chargers can cost more than 100.

Carefull, most manufactures will tell you that if you use anything higher than 8.4 volt than you void the warranty, but g&g internals can probably handle it fine. And I know tons of people who use higher than 8.4.

Actually, it is recommended to use a 9.6v to bring out the high ROF capacities. And G&G guns can definately handle it.

With a 8.4v on a G&G, you will be getting around 15 RPS, or 900RPM.

With a 9.6v on a G&G, you will be getting around 17RPS, or 1100RPM.

Ok so what about the instuctions and everything are they in english, tawain, or japanesse?

All of the G&G manuals I have seen are in English.

So most likely its in English since its an export model.

I am going to get that gun and also when do the plastic ca's and ics's come out anyone know

The plastic CAs will hit U.S. retailers around the end of the month.

I am not so sure about the ICS ones, I know via Sgt. Hartwig that only MP5s are coming out, they may already be here.

Does anyone know good accesories for this gun?

As in?

What kind of accessories do you want?

Rails, optics, flashlights, grips, battery boxes, crane stocks.....

Specify.

Well I play mostly back yard games so a red dot scope or something along those lines
