saw it, allmost had to wipe my monitor clean of drool and.... well

if they to the same thing with the ML version, i'm getting one for sure!

[allizard]

I saw the KA make the same grip at HK. Maybe I should get one before coming back.

Just checking: Apart from the handgrip being different and getting a red dot thrown in, how does this differ from the G&G GR300S?

[IronWolf]

Trades and pistol grip by the looks of it.

[phoenixkskg]

Its also got a G&P 7mm gearbox and a tightbore. I think that makes a big difference compared to whatever G&G throws in there.

These two guns arent even in the same league.

Compared to the prime kit the G&G gun is like an LPEG.

ZM weapons trademarks FTW. Although i would prefer if it had the same grip as on the gr300, its realy quite comfy.

Completely disagree.

The Prime kit can only be compared externally first of all. Secondly, the kit doesn't even come with the correct ML grip. For all the trades in the world you still get the regular grip with the gun. That's a bit pointless after spending all that money. Also, after spending $700 on the Redwolf version you don't even get the ML stock.

So you spend all that cash and don't get the best LR300 around. That's cr*p IMO.

Stock is the only thing that lets that gun down

[IronWolf]

I'd buy it if it had ML stock, and an adjustable verical foregrip.

I could stick a G27 style grip on my Gr300 and it would look identicle (minus the trades duh.)

its not worth the price tag imo

I have no clue what your point is. The grip really has nothing to do with anything since both guns come with moderatley comfortable grips. True, the GR300 has the "correct" lr300 grip but in the world of the modern armalite, stock parts last about 38 seconds before something aftermarket is slapped on there.

Just going by externals alone, the fact that you can "only compare the two guns externally" means more than anything else. Have you ever actually held both guns side by side? Like i said, the gr300 is easily discernable as a toy and i mean easily. Truth be told, the gr300 was and is probably the worst armalite i have ever had the displeasure of having to handle. I was disgusted by its performance and aesthetics.

Also, the prime ML kit is 520 dollars at most retailers if you can even find it. The SRF kit on the other hand ranges from 350-450 without a mechbox.

well said, G&P/Prime pwns G&G.

I can't say I'm surprised you missed my point. I'll word it as simple as possible.

- If accurate trades matter, an accurate grip does as well. The real-steel LR300's grip is one of the reasons the LR300 is considered an improved Armalite.

- Yes I have held, used, and played with both the Prime kits and the GR300. No, the difference isn't as great as the price difference you paid would lead you to believe.

- The Prime kit differs only in finish and trades to the GR300. The stock still wobbles, and the foregrip is slightly smaller (which in airsoft sucks, because that means a smaller battery).

If the GR300 is the worst Armalite you've held, you must have some stupidly high standards for airsoft where you live. Remember kids, higher price doesn't always mean higher quality.

G&P 7mm Gearbox
Tightbore


Are you people missing this?

[Shroomalistic]

If it came down to trades, I would take the prime over the gr300 anyday. The grip is the only thing wrong with it. It least its got the right color scheme and reciever trades. And if someone was really that hung up about trades im sure they would find a way to get a proper grip somewhere.

[Magsz]

Lol, shows how much you know about airsoft.

Due to the manufacturing process for 95% of all airsoft products a higher price generally does mean its better. IE, prime cnc'd pistol frames and so on.

Now, your reasoning is sound. In almost every other market, paying more money doesnt neccesarily mean you're getting a better product. Still, we are on an airsoft forum here so lets stick to the topic under discussion.

I still stand by my statements. I do indeed have high standards for airsoft products specifically my guns and the gr300 is again, one of the worst weapons i have ever held and fired.

PS, the gr300's reciever is cast out of a combination of magnesium and pot metal then painted with a horribly shiny black. Plus, like the ca m15 line of recievers, the paint is the least durable out of all the manufacturers. Practically looking at the paint causes it to chip.
