Lets see...

Lower receiver and furniture are gone, so he keeps the upper cover part, front top bit, outer barrel, and front sight assembly. Probably the rear sight, too.

Internals are all replaced, except the motor.

Dunno if the furniture kit included the buttplate.

If you're gonna get the receiver, you could have gotten the full G&P AK body kit for US$80 from WGC.. probably marks up to about $150 Canadian.

dodger_me · December 8th, 2007, 01:48

either way. in the end you can get a really nice full metal built internal ak for the price of a marui

Styrak · December 8th, 2007, 01:49

It's basically what I did with my M4 build. The only thing I kept from a crap plastic donor gun was the magazine, mechbox, and mechbox internals, grip, and motor. Replaced EVERYTHING else. And I have a full metal M4 for less than or at the price of a TM M4.

TokyoSeven · December 8th, 2007, 02:25

And even the mechbox you kept from that shit m4 was a useless piece of garbage. Thank goodness it was essentially free.

Everyones got their arguments on what is good, or what is better, whats cheaper bitch bitch bitch. Not everyone upgrades their guns, personally I see nothing wrong with keeping a TM gun stock. Now as for keeping a kraken stock, thats a diffrent story in my opinion.

So no, it's more. Fail.

No. It's actually called.. you both fail. Because I paid 600 for my ICS, and it's already tuned to 340fps, FMU with fully racking bolt, and has a fully modded gearbox.

lol.. JK! I'm just trollin'

No, seriously now.. TM is much better. But if you're going to mod a gun to hell, why not just scratch build one?

Exactly, that's what I did. And my custom M4 would totally pwn j00r M4. Like x2.

Oh noess!!!

This is highly doubted.

Why not just buy something that is reliable, has been tested and is known to be some of the best out there and buy Marui?

Where you can buy things depends on where you live (your profile does not say) and how old you are if you are in Canada.
The rest is research, since upgrades and modifications have their own section in the forums.

You cant really screw up a new Marui AK.

I have got a Kraken AK and a Marui SR-16 and i can honestly say I am seriously disappointed with Marui, i have had the SR-16 in the shop more then it has been fielded, where as the Kraken i have ran it completely stock and it hauls some serious ass if i had to start from the beginning i would go with the Kraken from my experience.

i think that between kraken and TM, TM would be better due to their history, but if you really want to get a china gun , get a JG or an ECHO-1. From what i have read and been told by actual users, they are good guns and completely compatible with TM and shoot as hard as the Kraken and come with all the features the Kraken has except the clear parts.

Scooby Steve · December 8th, 2007, 13:12

Good one, Omi-san.

TokyoSeven · December 8th, 2007, 13:23

TM is like KD, and Kraken is like say no name brand cheese flavoured noodles.

KD was there first, but noname brand is cheaper and tastes fairly similar and many think that no name brand tastes the same as KD and can barely tell a diffrence, while other KD lovers feel that no name brand is bland and flavourless and the cheese power is weak and clumpy and does not mix in properly even with the proper amount of milk and butter. If spending 75 cents on a box of KD works for you thats fine, good for you for supporting the original, if you like the spending 60 cents on the knock off, thats fine, if you like it, you like it.

In the end its all dependant on your tastes, that is if you like cheap shit, then its fine.
