Blow Back vs Non-Blow Back
I have a SOCOM MK23 gas non-blow back, its not bad, but big as s**t. and it seems that every time i fire it i have to pull my trigger really hard just for it to shoot and sometimes it gets jammed (yeah i know its an airsoft gun, and most guys i told this to were perplexed.) but it happened. i found this out the other day at CQB City when it wouldnt fire but was still able to surrender 4 guys. anyway, i used my friends barreta and its blow back, i liked the feel of blow back. i just need to know what are some reliable gas blow backs. any ideas?
anything with the brand name Tokyo Marui
GBB's can be very reliable. That is, if you buy a reliable brand, and you clean and maintain them on a regular basis.

the KWA and TM glock 18c's are very good in my opinion. they fire in semi and full auto, which is another plus.
what is GBB? KWA/KSC and WA?
im just getting new with the acronyms.
Not all TM's are reliable. However, the vast majority of them are. Especially the latest batch of GBB's. These include the G17,P226, 1911, HiCapa 4.3.

I've had TM's, KWA's, WA's, and WE's... I have to say that the WE i had NEVER EVER had any problems until i sold it. I cleaned it after every use like i do my real steel and it always worked perfectly. So did my friends. I don't know why some people have so many problems with them, I can only guess that they don't take as good care of their stuff. Love my WA... its finicky but looks nice :). Had a Mk23 and loved it. Meh on the KWA glock but i'm not a glock fan
which is why I put noobies in quote. But it does seem like just about every new player I've seen in AEX always lean right for those full metal KWA Glocks.

Be like Chesty Puller and Marine the hell up!
sorry to go off topic here, but I'm about to buy my friend's g18 that I've used for awhile, but how do you maintain them well?
keep all moving parts cleaned and lubricated. Areas where dirt and debris can get in. All seals kept lubricated too. Most of it is common sense. The mags shouldn't really need lubrication/maintenance unless you use straight up propane.

TM P226
Some say-That it's impossible for him to wear socks, and he can open a beer bottle with his testes.

On a quick note about plastic guns.
any form of petroleum based lubricant/grease will destroy plastic partsl.

I own a KWA G17 that I've had for over 2 years. I bought it on a recommendation from Andrew at AEX. It has been my sidearm since day one.
I have always acted in self defense, occasionally pre-emptive self defense.
