Hi!

So, im clearly very new to the sniper part of airsoft. My idea for a couple of months have been a m82 cuz it's so badass. But since it's so expensive, I will delay that thought. What I have stumbled on is the tanaka m40 =) I like U.S.M.C too

(http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...anaka_Tanaka_U_S_M_C_M40_with_Scope_Mount.htm)

Is this any good? (pros/cons)?

I heard alot of tanaka m700 to, but i want to know the difference.

I have alot of questions, but starting with some. (need to wake up about 5 hours ... -.- ' )

(Is tanaka the leading in sniper rifles? )

 

[mayhem]

the tanaka m40 is a pretty cool weapon;tanaka has been known to produce high quality gas rifles;the finish is superb;full length;and has a solid feel;also prepare for the upgrade parts this gun will need;

The Tanaka's are good but being made of pot metal doesn't help in the durability part.
The hop up housing WILL break and they also have issues, I've worked on 4 and all had issues, the trigger box is a nightmare to work on, you'll need upgrades right out of the box to make it skirmishable which are pretty pricey.
Read a few threads at the Tanaka section ...

Ok, thanks for answer =)

Following up..

Requirments:

Good upgrade potential (easy to get upgrade)

UTG Mk96

VSR-10

KJW/Tanaka M700

Those are the common ones.

The tanakas are good rifles if you have the time,money and know how to get them shooting well.Very few rifles have as good a feel as a tanaka.

For the best over all gun, a TM vsr or g-spec cant be beaten I would say.They feel bait cheaper,due to the weight.But preform better than any gun,when stock or upgraded.

 

[hybelmoskus]

so say a tanaka m40 or 700. will it be easy to get upgrades? i use redwolf alot. but have a feelibg they doesnt have it all.

 

[hybelmoskus]

btw. http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...les_Tokyo_Marui_Tokyo_Marui_VSR_10_G_SPEC.htm

Is the 450 fps upgrade for 109 $ worth it?
seems like a good rifle. heard alot of the tm hopup. Is the hopup awesome as in the aeg's?

 

[bitchtits]

All the tanaka rifles are the same internally its just looks, personally I'm not keen on the standard m700 stock as its a lot wider than say the m40.

As for the upgrades do them your self they will charge more for less bits,if you do it yourself you can be sure whats fitted.

 

[hybelmoskus]

So the TM v-spec -gspec i linked is pretty good ? =)

I will post a shopping cart list here later, with upgrades. Maybe somebody can confirm everything will fit etc.

 

[bitchtits]

Yeah very good.
With parts go with one brand if possible, I would suggest lay lax or pdi if you have the cash.


You may want to close this thread then and start another in the vsr section though.

 

[Wolfgeorge]

I'd say go with Laylax over PDI due to better compatibility with other brand parts!

[hybelmoskus]

Then laylax, will come back later.. first some ghost recon

Questions :

• 
  Is it needed to upgrade spring guide? (this one: http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...all_Bearing_Spring_Guide_for_VSR10_G_Spec.htm)
  
  What kind of spring should I have to reach 540-550 with the sniper?
  
  What kind of spring should I have to reach 450 with the sniper?
  
  Should I get the hopup chamber from laylax? Or is the stock TM good enough?
  
  Is this needed ? http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...eal_Damper_Cylinder_Head_for_VSR10_G_Spec.htm
  
  What is the object of this part : http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...s_PSS10_Teflon_Cylinder_for_VSR_10_G_Spec.htm ?
  
  Guess this is needed ? http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo..._Laylax_PSS10_Bolt_Handle_for_Marui_VSR10.htm

Apparently have alot of questions. This is pretty much every laylax thing on redwolf to the rifle.

You only need a 430mm barrel at most,this will require drilling out the silencer end cap though.
Spring guide is a good idea but not 100% needed,what ever people say.(I would get one if you can though)

The trigger unit is great, but you can go cheaper and just buy the piston and sears. But the zero trigger will give a smoother bolt pull due to the 90 degree sears

A sp150 laylax spring should get 500-550fps with good compression.

Only get the laylax hop chamber if you want to use age barrels,I would stick with the stock chamber.

The cylinder and bolt handle are not needed,just extras if you have the cash.
The cylinder head again isn't a must,I've always ran the stock one,but i taper the back myself and add dampeners or a large o-ring.

Tokyo Marui VSR-10 G-SPEC TM-VSR-GSPEC
Laylax PSS10 150 Spring for Marui VSR-10 series
Laylax PSS10 VSR-10 TN Barrel 6.03 (430mm)
Laylax PSS10 Ball Bearing Spring Guide for VSR10 / G- Spec
Laylax PSS10 Zero Trigger NEO CYLINDER SET for Marui VSR10
Laylax PSS10 Air Seal Damper Cylinder Head for VSR10 / G-Spec

Is my shopping cart until now.

Anyone got any more ideas? want to change or add something?

Any recommendation for scopes?

This mean the barrel will go out of the silencer ?

 

[hybelmoskus]

Would you change Laylax PSS10 VSR-10 TN Barrel 6.03 (430mm)

with PDI 303mm?

http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwo...rrel_for_Marui_VSR_10_G_SPEC_6_04mm_303mm.htm

 

[Cheese Man]

The 430mm barrel will go into the silencer, so you will have to drill the threaded portion (that attaches to the barrel). The Laylax barrel is quite good, and drilling the threaded endcap is easy.

The list looks great, by the way.

 

[hybelmoskus]

ok, sounds great. Added 43. g madbull bullets on the list.. (which should be washed in coke light over night then soap ? )

Any recommandation on scopes?
