Thanks everybody. I'm more into sniper rifles and sniper role. I only have 2 assault AEG rifles!
The intervention is the Ares version and it's 6mm, it almost brand new it's never been skirmished and I've but through it about 5 gas mags worth, I haven used at all the spring bolt! And was asking for it $850 but now I 'll see.
By far the best is the Asahi WA2000, first because I love the WA2K shape since the first and only time I came across with the real in early 90's in Germany. It produces 580fps on green gas using the internal tank and it's incredibly consistent, the range stock is about 65m and that's because since it's so old doesn't have hop up installed!!
The gun it's about to have a hop up installed by SnipeX sooo DRK (who has the same hop up installed) says it can reach very easy the 110yrd. The built quality surpasses many RS guns!! Especially the wooden furniture is amazing!!
Now the RS SVD is superb even outside of the box the only thing I've changed is the hop up bucking. Very well built very nice furiture , though very shiny for my tastes and doesn't match very nice with the matte painted metal parts (I have the 2 version). Very good accuracy and range.
I haven't measured it yet with a chrono but it says it's about 420fps but the range is better than an equal fps AEG!!
I'll post some more maybe later today.

I've skirmished twice with it in a fairly small woodland field with incredible results.
Now I mostly use at indoors target shooting competitions but from now on I don't think I'll use it again. It's for collecting purposes!

As for my job... I will tell some other time ;-)

Here's some photos for comparison between the Asahi and Ares WA2K













The Ares is the top one.
I don't know if you can see but the Asahi has FAR better quality on everything ( Metal parts, wooden furniture, assembly and paint!)
You can't see it from the photo's but especially the wood has absolutely amazing details.
The problem with the Asahi is you can't use very much cause there's always the fear of breaking it!!

If you want to ask anything on these rifles feel free to ask.

Oh man, wolf is the new wanko. So umm were do you live I may pay you a visit I when you not home. Joking aside those are some beautiful guns you have there, love the m82 and the intervention.

What are the specs on the m82 fps, and internal wise.

The SG Barrett M82 is the second rifle I'll never sell!! It heavy steel construction with great finish and the right trades.... Now on the inside sucks!! Mine came with broken tappet plate! and when I fixed it had only 350fps !! Pretty bad for a sniper rifle and lame for such big gun. The accuracy with the stock 650mm 6.03 Madbull was decent but the range was about 50m at best!!
Now it's pretty much an empty shell waiting for the polarStar fusion engine to be released!!

Man you know how bad are the 8mm rifles...!
If you want purely for display then it's fine take the SG M200 but if you want to play... Then Ares.
The time I bought mine it was the only one around and I have it for a year and a half!
