Just picked up a new gun!
 

Well it arrives on Thursday! It's a G&P USMC SAM-R, never gamed, pro arms 3 round burst, 380fps with .2s, etc. :D

THREAD IS NOW WORTH!:D

beautiful rifle mate

Google images works too you know. =P

pic added lol

Noice noice, how much ?

You dont want to know :D

Hold on let me guess.... Around $400? Did I get it right? =D

I didnt get an absurd deal, I paid $800 shipped for it....

damn man!!! Shes a beauty!

Read the title and thought it was another troll. :p

After seeing that rifle, it's going to make you bad ass.

nice gun, Drache...

I've been always wanting to get one, but just don't have the money for it...

very jealous of your new rifle...

That's a looooooooooooooooong gun.

What a beautiful rifle. $800 not bad for such a rifle + upgrades.

Very long!

Plans include a tightbore, harris bipod, vn mag, and a scope

So how many inches in the front end excluding the suppressor?

no clue, it doesnt arrive for another couple days lol...

Oh alright. Cool.

Rememeber.

The bigger the better. Size matters. ;) heh

Google you have failed me! Nothing makes sense anymore... lol But damn hope it's worth it.

Considering that on redwolfairsoft.com it sells for $399 USD and say a VFC 416D 145RS sells for $405 USD Id say its worth the price I paid considering the SAM-R has a mosfet installed and shipping included.... :D

Nice gun drache, 800 is not a bad price at all.

I really didnt have the money to drop on this but I fell in love with it! Not to mention I haven't seen a G&P USMC SAM-R for sale yet not to mention with a mosfet installed.

Got one just like it!
But mine was not as good of a deal I paided just under a thousand when I purchased it about a year ago from A&A airsoft.

Very nice! Those halo silencers are incredible. They make your rifle inaudible.. lol... very cool.

Thats what the seller said! I can wait to try it out!

That is a very nice looking AEG. Hope you enjoy it!

I am just waiting for payment to clear for an Eotech 552 to throw on top of it!

Man, that gun is really long with that suppressor. I like it. I wouldn't necessarily want to use a gun that long, but it sure looks good.

yeah running through the brush might require the silencer to be removed... screw it turn it into a sniper roll then I dont have to worry about running through the brush lol

From the pic it looks like it's one of those quick-attach silencers that attach over the flash hider, right? If so, then it's a snap to get that on and off.

Yeah it appears to be a QD Halo type silencer....

I've also just been told by the previous owner that the gun has a madbul 6.04 ver.2 tightbore installed already!

LOL... QD my ass. It takes me 15 seconds to install... and I'm quasi-quick.

They're very nice regardless of their speed. I've dropped mine multiple times, and it received little more than a scuff... muahah.

I think a VLTOR VIS would look amazing on that rifle, IMHO.

Yeah my last QD silencer was a BITCH to remove lol....

but how are you getting it sent to a fake town :p

actually its being bussed to Quesnel where I'll be for a couple days...

ok for the people who have emailed me, PM'd me on multiple forums, and even to the person who called me at home....

THIS IS NOT FOR SALE!

:D

My M16 is fitted with the G&P SAM-R front end. Its an extremely solid piece of kit. I think you will be very happy with the quality of this gun.

All I ever wanted was a full metal SOLID AEG, 3rd burst, tightbore, etc is just icing on the cake!

Yeah, really. 3rnd burst is alot of fun from what I've seen... ;P

Its also great for the person on the retrieving end. It has saved me from being sprayed with an entire mag from a ptw on a few occasions.

It's also supposed to be allot more accurate than full auto and two extra BB's compared to single help lol

The gun is already at the bus depot and I wont be in that city until tomorrow afternoon! The waiting is killing me!

LOL drooling for it already, just itching for it, huh? :p

If I could Id leave a day early just so I could pick it up a day early! I should also have an Eotech 552 waiting as well at the bus depot when I pick up my gun!

did you ever get your shipping issues fixed or is picking stuff up in Quesnel your only option now?

The reason my "town" never existed was because the seller had the postal code wrong lol. Ive been getting stuff all the time. The only reason I got it bused to Quesnel was because I am going to be in Quesnel until Monday! If I would have had it mailed here to Likely it wouldnt arrive until Monday or Tuesday.

Ok got the SAM-R in the trunk as I type this in a McDonalds parking lot (not eating here just using their free highspeed wireless connection). I havent had a chance to test it yet since I wont be out at my fathers ranch until late tonight (good thing I remember to bring ammo).

God I want to shoot this thing!

Here are a few pics that I quickly took in the hotel room:

OMG! Nice silencer! Congratz!

OMG that is gorgeous....Drache I'm so jealous. I love the way supressors look on M16's and M4's

Sad part is first time I fired it, three f'ing BB's shattered INSIDE the hopup/tightbore and I havent had a chance to fire it again since that moment. Hope everything is fine internally.....

Kudos Drache, shes quite the beauty :)

Pretty good looking. Grats :cool:

Ok the official tally is:

7 PM's over multiple forums
3 emails
2 calls to my parents place
1 call to my place

All asking if this gun is for sale....

IT IS NOT!

That looks really nice, congrats.

I noticed that the top receiver doesnt have the tabs that say a TM receiver does and yet this this is rock steady!

The mechbox itself is what holds the upper receiver so solid on G&P guns. The front pin keeps it from sliding off, and really is the only thing that holds the upper on the gun.

In a few post-2005 G&P guns that I've owned or worked on, that front receiver pin was very loose, and needed to be physically altered (with a hammed and chisel) to deform and enlarge it to fit the holes in the receivers. This was the only gripe I could find with the guns really.

But mechboxes where users would use semi-auto, the switch stop block would break in the same fashion that Systema complete mechboxes would.

Yeah the front pin is kinda loose so I think Im going to find a place that sells the locking ones.

Yeah when I disassembled the gun for the first time Im so used to the upper receiver being able to pivot forward like a real C7. On G&P's though you have to slide the upper receiver forward after removing the front pin.
