okay im getting into Vietnam Softing, and i want a tokyo marui m16a1 vietnam version but i have one problem, it doesnt appear how it is suspose to look in some pictures. Ive seen some m16a1's VN versions that look all black strong looking ones, which is the way i want them to look, and some look like black and grey, with orange tips and stickers on it and look like they would snap like a twig. Also how much of it is plastic, and could i get like metal kits for it.
please responde soon, thanks

The TM is all plastic, but its actualy a very nice gun, its heavy and strong. infact, It weighs a bit more than the full metal WGC. I am an airsoft nut, I always like to have the best stuff, and I feel very strongly that the TM m16e1 is an AWESOME gun. Hope that helps with your decision. -Gordak

thanks, i like the Vietnam Style that marui has to offer. The one Gun Freak gave me is more of a mid 70's to late 80's style, which i dont like. i like the small mag and the tm flashhider. So Gordak, should i get the TM Marui M16a1 Vietnam Verison? i mean i saw some pictures of it looking really nice, how it would look in real life, but like in some pictures its the same gun but looks like sh@t, well some guns just come in the box looking like a piece sh@t, and you have to like add the rest, sooo im guessing get the gun, if anyone has any sugestions please post before saturday of the 19th, because ill probly be ordering it. ...along with my Fender 1957 Stratocaster reiusse! modified________________________________________ i was wondering like if i could put a metal body on a TM Tokyo Marui m16a1 VN Version. I've seen G&P kits and im not sure if they are for a certain gun or not. please reply with INFO!!!!!! modified again___________________________________ i just found the right version, its on the same sight gun freak gave to me, its out of stock for now, but its an AEG, full metal m16a1 vietnam version. www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?itm=WGC-AEG-M16VN_cat_WGC%20Custom%20AEGs

The WGC gun is the same used from 67ish up to 85. if you want it so be a nam gun, jsut buy 20 round mags for it.
the VN verson is not a A1 but a AR15 or just plane M16. it has no forward asist and it has the 3 pron flashinder. it was only used verry early in the war. 65-66(mabye 67)

it was in 67 too because that is when the US troop numbers were at its highest, and they didnt remake the style until late 1969, even then some GI's kept there orginal style until 1971. thats a quick history fact (my grandfather was in Nam)

Ok but you said they aren't in stock, that's kind of redundant...

yeah, but out of stock means they will come back in stock, its not like they are ending the line of the custom G&P m16's, and im not in any hurry since im only 14, so mauser98k, wat do you have to say to that?

Wow easy, What do I have to say to that? Don't act like a smarta$$. And you have absolutely no clue if it will ever be restocked, unless you ask the company itself, so don't get your hopes up. "I say this thread is about as useful as arguing with 14 yo normally is... " ;D

If you said that before it wouldn't have sounded idiotic to me, misinterpretation.
