Hey guys, Mickey again. I just realized nobody on the forums has ever mentioned Daytona guns, so I'm starting this thread to get some discussion going. Many of you are aware of what a Daytona gun is, but some may not so I will explain: A Daytona gun is a HPA (High Pressure Air) system that can be dropped into many different platforms. But unlike other HPA systems such as PolarStar or the SMP, Daytona guns have
kick. More kick than most (if not all) GBB rifles on the market. Other than the benefit of adjustable FPS, the HPA system allows the rifle to have a very consistent FPS even on full-auto. So essentially the Daytona gun is the best of both worlds between HPA and GBB, allowing the shooter to all of the perks of HPA but with the added feedback and sound of a GBB rifle.
Currently (aside from custom builds) there are a few different kits for a Daytona gun available. M4, AK, G36, Scar, MSK, FAL and even the M249 are able to be outfitted with pre-made kits. Personally, I love the idea of a recoiling M249 and after seeing gameplay footage from one (

So has anyone dealt with Daytona guns before? Owned one, played with one, or been too afraid to peek a corner after hearing one? I'm really interested to see what everyone thinks.
