Oh no, definately do not forget that, but remeber, it still works, you just may not be happy with it later, while others dont mind it.

TokyoSeven · December 8th, 2007, 13:37

The orange powder in "no name brand" KD never dissolve properly in the macaronis.

buying a Kraken and modifying it for a full metal working not so shitty AK isn't helping Kraken at all.

It's like saying I bought a Dell, ditched everything except the DVD burner and rebuilt a good computer using after-market parts claiming Dell is a good brand.

Kraken is shit and you'll need to get a new one or replace all the parts eventually.

I've had a fully working TM SR-16 for a long time and it never failed me except when I personally did stupid stuff on it (don't ask).

Out of all of my GBBs the best one is clearly my TM P226 and my TM M1911A1 and they are both stock.

I've just acquired a TM AK-47 full metal for 550$ It has some upgraded internals as well. I just spent less than your scratch built AK, it's a TM, it's full metal and it's not based off of a Kraken.

When I joined ASC, I didn't have the proper funds to buy myself a good AEG so I waited until I could afford one. Nowadays it seems like all newcomers go for shitsoft right away instead of waiting a few months for the good stuff.

It's like buying the cheapest, oldest with most mileage rusty BMW and slapping an ///M5 sticker on it. Out of topic but this reminds me of this funny website, BMW Nightmare; laugh out at all the rice boys on there :P

^I agree.

laredo · December 8th, 2007, 14:28

I wound up ordering the kraken from buyairsoft.ca, it seems to me that there is more bang for your buck.
I also ordered some RPK wood off ebay to compliment it, anybody got a metal lower for sale?
I appreciate everyones insight although quite a bit of it came across pretty snobbish.

TokyoSeven · December 8th, 2007, 14:30

Not only am I snobbish, Im also a pretentious asshole too.

Enjoy your buyairsoft kraken, Im sure it will work fine. But if it ever shits out, dont come crying to us.

You wanted our opinion we gave it to you, you made your choice. Its like asking BMW owners what they think of Ford Festivas.

Cassius · December 8th, 2007, 14:42

I'm snobbish as well. Proud.

*shrug*. I originally purchased a CYMA 027 MP5. Mark sent me the wrong gun, and I got sick of waiting 4 months so I went to ASCA and bought a CA36 instead. Roughly twice as expensive, but I don't regret it one bit. Other than shitty wiring (which was a problem with the MP5 I originally bought anyway) the CA is a very solid gun, and I've had no issue at all with the internals. Definetly glad my impatience forced me to go high end for my first gun. I'm patiently waiting for my new L85 now. After owning a TM FA-MAS, it will be my first China gun.

~JARSH~ · December 8th, 2007, 16:14

i bought one because i couldnt find anything else, then i found a&a....shortly after sold the kracken.

My reason for getting a Kraken is a bit selfish. There's not a lot of local players in my area and to get people out I often have to lend out my extra guns. I bought the Kraken as a cheap loaner/rental gun. I figure I'll just have an SP90 installed and metal bushings, and have it re-shimmed and hopefully it'll hold up well enough that I don't have to risk my more expensive guns on noobs. If it can keep one of my more expensive guns from getting damaged, then as far as I'm concerned... mission accomplished.

Plus... it's ugly enough that the person borrowing it will have incentive to buy his own gun.
