Why put an external tank on a bolt action rifle? Can't possibly tell me that your going to shoot that much.
to be honest, that thing looks sick....I hope it works as good as it looks.

What are your thoughts on this gun? All I've read so far has been good... any immediate negatives I should know about?

How about that couch? :P

From what I understand, the Soc 16 is some of the finest that Marui has produced, which says a lot since Marui was great to begin with.

It was the best stock gun that I've ever owned.  I've got an M100 in it now with a Prometheus tight bore and I'm more than impressed.

I would recommend the couch too Shane  :lol:


There aren't really any immediate negatives other than there aren't that many basic internal components available as of now, but that will probably change.  Just be REALLY careful when you take it apart because this thing called the selector arm is relatively fragile.

And if you have issues ordering overseas, some people do, you won't be able to buy upgrade parts for it.

I can't wait until I get mine in the nest week or so. I will replace the selector arm since they make the metal one but its $38. So if it breaks there is not choice really.

I heard the finish isn't to good on the soc 16, is there any truth to this?

Well, that's a pretty broad stroke, there.

The finish on the receiver is top notch, until it gets wet. Then you're fairly fucked.

The finish on the stock is decent, but it achieves it's color on both the green and black stocks by way of a clear coat over a base coat, and the clear coat can get scratched off after awhile, creating a non-uniform appearance.

Easy solution -- paint that bitch.

The finish on it before i painted it wasn't too bad.  It's called "sand stone" finish or something like that.  Anywho, I painted mine in khaki with krylon paint and it's much better like Vince said.
