I Buy KSC G18C/G23F or KSC M11 ?

Markiarez · April 17th, 2006, 11:43

Hi,

I'm looking for a full auto gun and what would be best between the G18C ( or G23F ) and the M11 ??

I know those are really different, but which one have you personally chosen and why ?

txks

I would go for the M11 if you want a full auto gun. I hear issues when you run the 18c or the 23f auto for too long.

Try google or the search function and at the end i think you meant "Thnx" not "txks"

I ve been on all reviews I could but I still don't know what to choose...Give me your own impressions plz :cry:

First review; you must be 18 to buy anything. So you have plenty of time to read the reviews already written OR go to a game and see what folks really use.
Second review; unless you are rich, can afford many magazines, lots of ammo and gas, go for a handgun. The M11 is a BB-hose.
Third review; gather your money and buy something you'll use more: an AEG.

I've heard there are issues running a 18C on auto, period (not heard actually, first hand experience)

i own the Mac 11, and i love it! Amazing ROF! Wouldn't use it as a primary unless it's an indoor game. Really fun gun to own!

You buy dictionary now!

I'd listen to exactly what Greylock said buddy.
You have lots of time.

As a proud owner of the 18c 23F and the M11, I love all of them. But, if you want an insane rate of fire on Full auto, get the M11... 48 rounds in 2.5 seconds.. I'd invest in atleast 2 extra clips for it though.

The 18C and 23F fire nice on full auto too, but they tend to cool down a bit more than the M11.

On a side note: Also, HFC makes a nice Full metal Beretta M9 that is full auto too, and being an owner of one of those too, they have a nice hard kick and feel solid as a rock. They shoot quite nicely on full auto. I was a bit leary about it being an HFC as I never owned one before but, this gun is very heavy and shoots clean and crisp.

Sadly, I don't use it much as I'm a HUGE Glock fan! :-D

To those of you outside Canada, you must be 18 to buy an airsoft gun here.
Pointing out preferences or sources is irrelevant.

If he wont listen to my advice, he can go to a game and see what folks use before trying to spend any money. At least he will have first-hand information when he can do the purchase.

as with paintball, if you have a parent or guardian with you, you can buy an airsoft gun. so as long as his parents are willing to let him play he could buy a gun. it would just be finding a place that will let him play underage that will prove to be the problem.

(yes i realize im only 17, 18 in 1 week though!!

And that is exactly why I suggested he go to a game; he would know if he's allowed to play in the first place. And since there are no airsoft stores anywhere near Ottawa, showing up with his parents to buy is not a useful suggestion.
There is a process called age-verification to look into.

In the U.S, you have to be 18 to purchase too. But, I didn't see him mention he was under age in his posts. Being 28 myself, I don't have that problem.

Sorry to step on any toes Greylocks. I didn't realize that Canada's laws were so harsh on the sport. I was just giving my opinions of all of the guns in question since I own them myself.
Even though I've been a member of 9 or 10 other airsoft forums for a few years, I guess, what I thought a forum was for was wrong??
