TM Five-seveN vs Marushin Five-SeveN

Postby Shadowsta13 » Sat Sep 10, 2011 4:35 pm

I'm looking into getting a FN 5-7 and I was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience with either of these models? The most important things I'm wondering about are if the internals can handle green gas, how durable they are in the long run and if there any US based websites that sell them( I've been looking on Redwolf but the shipping prices make it problematic).

ive seen and messed with both first hand, and i can tell you i wouldn't spend money on either of them. they both feel like squirt guns, and they are both underpowered.

I traded my Marushin less than a week after I got it.

I touched and popped a couple shots from a TM one last week. I thought it was pretty cool.
Personally, I'd love one of the Marui ones, but maybe that's just because I like Marui and I like FN.

Thank you guys for all your advice. Didn't think either would be a good choice. I'll just stick to WE and such for now.
