1: it costed me 195 Euros
2: I think around 320 FPS
3: Tanaka
4: 38 bb's
5: Green gas
6: About 1200 gram with magazine
I got a free steel folding stock with it =D
Please note that my guns are more expensive than on other places, as airsoft is still illegal here in the Netherlands.
1: 75 Euros
2: 250 FPS (I think)
3: ASG
4: 40 bb's
5: Spring
6: 3000 Gram
Comes with a rail system that slides on. Adjustable Hop- Up and rear sight (elevation), also comes with speedloader, and a safety goggle. (I think the safety goggle isn't too good in quality)
1: It was 50 euros
2: The manual says 345 FPS, I think it's a litlle lower
3: Gold Arrow / UTG / Double Eagle
4: 14 bb's per shell.
5: Spring
6: 1800 gram
It loads from shells, 1 shell at a time. Spare shells are held in the holder you can click on the gun
1: 40 euros, my parents paid it for me
2: 260 FPS
3: Umarex
4: 15 bb's
5: Spring
6: 400 gram, mine weights a bit more, I have a laser on it.
It comes with a detachable rail cover. Accepts most lasers or flashlight holders. The iron sights are dotted white, and the Hop-Up is fixed, but extremely accurate with .2 gram bb's
1: 25 Euros
2: 250 FPS-ish
3: Double Eagle
4: 32 bb's
5: spring
6: 400 gram
Plastic feels cheap-ish. Folding stock. I heard that the stock is extremely flimsy, mine still works perfectly after more than a year. Hop-Up is fixed way to heavily. Sights suck, the front post is to low, I can't see it 'cause of the fixed rail on top. I put tape on the front post to extend it, and colored it black.
$40-$70, It has been so long.
255fps
crosman or daisy bullpup.
50plastic bbs
spring
8 lbs roughly.
i will hopefully have a pic up by tomorrow
2.325 fps
3.Daisy red ryder lever action bb gun
4.no mag, gun holds 300 rounds at a time

ps. sorry for the bad photo
Price=$40
Fps=315
Brand=Soft Air/KWC/Swiss arms
Magazine capacity= 12
Power source= spring (lol)
Weight= unknown, guessing about 1000g
(1) Somewhere from $300-350 likely
(2) 350
(3) Magpul PTS
(4) N/A but can accept all their STANAG magazines, 120 rounds being the average.
(5) Electric
(6) N/A I'd estimate somewhere similar to a P90 of similar quality
You're missing other useful qualities, even if they're not easy to test for. For example, the RoF of the gun, the accuracy or at least the length of barrel, stuff like that would be useful too.
But yeah, I can't wait to get my hands on it eventually. It's pricey, but it'll be worth it.
The rating system should be used to reflect the integrity of the instructables' content, not as an award for an unrelated contest...
Perhaps you can throw something else in (like a 3-month Pro membership).
