    M14 DMR Build questions?

    Gun picture thread

    My first RIF G&G GC16 Predator. Skirmished a few times and so far very happy with it. Plan to add a mock suppressor once I figure out what will fit with the rail and maybe a snake skin paint job in the far future.

We will always try to...

    G&G CM16 Predator - Have initial MOSFET issues been resolved?

    I have found them maybe 10-20 quid cheaper on Patrolbase and others. But at least for my first RIF happy go somewhere local and spend a little more so i got somewhere to take it back if there are any problems
