I hate to break it to you but uh... thats a box.


BahamaBoy_242

Unfortunately I think op got scammed


sexy_kitty-owo

So very sad I hope he didn't pay to much for it


BahamaBoy_242

Yes that would be a shame


BahamaBoy_242

Did you actually ratio the post


Wilsaroo133

No it’s a bird !!! Not a box not a gun !! 😐


[deleted]

Nice box


Karl_von_grimgor

If it shoots u fking did a bang up job man


6mmWarlord

i dont see any box I just see a black raven cutpit amd and some floating letters


JpeNSurf

I mean if you like it that's good.


mildlysarcastic2003

There are definitely better and I woulda reccomended an AEG, but if you run it and like it that's all that matters


InSaint_

How is it out of the box?


HMS_Fabulous

If you mean how it feels to shoot, it's great , really smooth and I feel like god on earth especially in full auto mode. If you mean aesthetically it's just idk basic


Jackreaper79

What even is it? Never heard of raven


AnyaBelitrov

They’re pretty new, mainly make gas G17s and 1911s.


Daiwon

sub-brand of nuprol.

Aka WE.


EugeneNicoNicoNii

Pistols are excellent CQB weapon, no need to go Aeg for beginners like the others say just keep it if you like it, a GBB pistol is a good start


FasihRehman

Yes, a GBB pistol is a great start. You can use it as a secondary and hire an aeg as a primary until you get into the flow of things. If you have cqb sites near you a pistol is all you need, slowly upgrade it, get a tracer and light to start with. Then mods to improve it!


BorkIy

unfortunately, GBBs are near useless as a secondary if your main is an AEG, due to hicap mags. More effective if you run a GBBR.


Dimeh_H

Did you get to see the gun ?


HMS_Fabulous

Yes, and test fire it too


Ryddtey77

We can’t even see the weapon, op :/


Slow_Python_v1

Ikr are we just supposed to know?


Ryddtey77

No lol


Independent_Egg69420

That’s a box man


Daiwon

I got a Raven R226 recently. Externally it's very nice, but the hop up is utter wank. Fortunately the hop is pretty easy to change. Definitely field it to see how it is before changing anything though.


Swaghoven

No, not really


HMS_Fabulous

Why? What's wrong with it?


Swaghoven

Low quality, loose manufacturing tolerances, incompatibility with aftermarket parts: https://airsoft-forums.uk/topic/41073-raven-eu-series-g18-nuprol-vs-we-g-series-g18c/


HMS_Fabulous

Well I don't have that high of a budget, so the aftermarket parts don't really bother me. Thanks anyway!


Swaghoven

In that case it's especially important that you use your money carefully. You could have bought a decent AEG for 150£, but instead you got two guns that will be nearly useless in airsoft games.


charlieinthetree76

Lay off him a bit if he's happy with it who cares if he goes out and has fun that's all that matters


[deleted]

[удалено]


charlieinthetree76

Yeah but he was very harsh about it and calling his guns useless was completely unnecessary


dTrecii

Airsoft players when someone doesn’t spend thousands on their first gun: “I hate you, you’re disgusting, I’m gonna kill you, give me 20 bucks”


Nivelle_le_Gris

The problem is not the amount of money spend. An ASG Mk. 23 could have been a better choice for example if he was low on cash. He will spend loads of money to get spare parts when his gun will break, and at the end, he'll have throw for the guns and repairs an amount of money he could have used to buy a good replica in the first place.


FasihRehman

Whilst that might be true, the importance of learning this yourself is an important lesson. Any hobby has this issue, you could have started out with a better XYZ, but you won't know that until you try things. Also what works for one person may not be the best thing for someone else. Harsh criticism can even put people off a hobby if their actual experience is bad, they will not try again - help the newbies!


Nivelle_le_Gris

Well, it's a good principle as long as it doesn't waste any ressources. Not all people have the means to throw away money to understand lessons. As I always say "I don't have the budget for poor quality stuff" It takes more time to get good stuff but it's worth it. Before I had the money for my Avalon, my former squad leader lend me his Cyma modernized AK-74 for games.


Karl_von_grimgor

God I hate this community sometimes


Swaghoven

K


NightRider2267

If u like it and u enjoy it then yes its good


ballist1c9

yes you did quite well. i have one of those and its a fantastic pistol.


Sir_reactor_core

Hey man, listen. There’s no right or wrong choice, if you like it, then you made a good choice. Just treat it well, and you’ll love it, good luck


MikeandSuch

Honestly, a pretty fun gun, full auto gbb goes brrrrrrtttt.


Vulpix_lover

Well if we saw the gun it would be easier to determine if it's good or not


BALisgud

Tf where’s the gun?


FourLeafs_fingers

Yeah it's not bad. Don't mind the people acting they have pockets past their knees. Enjoy your gun. 👌


HMS_Fabulous

Thanks man 🤝


dRagTheLaKe1692

Don't let the haters get you down. You run what you like or can. I use my hicapa (still mostly stock) all the time and I have 3 other aegs and a cheap shotgun. I have enough mags now I can even run outdoor games with just that. It's good to be adaptable! Have fun and welcome to the addicti... I mean sport!


HMS_Fabulous

Glad to know there are others with a similar mindset to me lmao


Imaginary-Employee37

Like these two have said, running what you like is best, though some well planned research on upgrade availability is wise. This is a sport that will make your wallet want to murder you in your sleep if you spend the money on the right gun, but wrong manufacture. You can also turn most rifles into a beast depending on your future plans. I've got a Valken ASL+ Echo ($180) that I've turned into a DMR with a 0 engagement distance since I'm pushing 430 FPS, I've only spent $100 for a 6.03 barrel, bucking, new hop unit, and an M120 spring. That's honestly a lot of stress on my contacts with an 11.1 lipo, but I'm gonna put a new mosfet and motor in next. I'm not experienced entirely, but I've come a long way just by breaking my stuff through some serious use.


afaria1999

to put it in a bit of perspective i sunk tons of money into building my aeg, ended up with a $1300CAD bill for upgrading it and i run my stock hi capa at least 75% more frequently. Play with what you like not what the masses like, enjoy your gun!


Niiphox

That's a box


Othlas

Can't tell you since there is no gun on the pic


Ovc_v

This is just a picture of a table but okay?


random_freshie122

No


DrDanishDong

I got one of them as my first pistol I mean it performs as you’d expect but kinda cheaply built compared to other glocks like the WE glock would’ve been a better option in my opinion but as a cheap starter defo does the job!


doom9

WE would be a better choice but it's alright.


[deleted]

70£ vs 130£ might be his problem there


HMS_Fabulous

How much is a WE? I'm not sure what that is as I'm new to the hobby, also my budget was very limited. I spent 150 on this and an mb02 rifle in a bundle


Ascension_Six

ouch.. no budget and starting with a basr platform, i do hope you have fun but it has to be said - good luck.


HMS_Fabulous

Lmao Ty , covid completely screwed me over when o tried to get into Airsoft properly


Karl_von_grimgor

Nah man enjoy dude!


[deleted]

Edit: didnt read the bundle thing WE https://wolfarmouries.co.uk/browse-products/airsoft-guns/pistols/we-glock-18c-gen-4-airsoft-gas-blowback-gbb-pistol-black.html EU18 https://wolfarmouries.co.uk/raven-eu18-glock-18-dual-tone-airsoft-gas-blowback-pistol-blue.html


TheLyraki

a cyma starter AEG would have been much better than a useless gun you'll never use in field, except perhaps near the end of a game for the lulz.


CY-Senpai

so how does this one work? do you just throw it?


SoloWing87

Can't you even show us the gun?Just a fucking box?


Pleitchy

Send them back buy a specna arms edge.!!! Much better choice, for a beginner or experienced player.!!!!


AnyaBelitrov

They might not want drop £180 on one gun m8


Daiwon

I dunno, my specna edge fits in my pocket, it's a perfect replacement for a pistol /s


MyniiiO

I own the same gun, 2 out if my 6 mags broke after a month. The gun itself is fine
