Pros: Long inner barrel; solid stock for large battery; easy to adjust hopup; mags
Cons: lots of plastic; very light; selector switch is weak; some minor tweaks needed

This AEG has been on the market for quite some time, and in my opinion is quite underrated.

Many complain about the amount of plastic and \"creakiness\" of the gun. While those complaints are true, I find that they don\'t outweigh the positives of the gun and can be remedied to an extent.

First, this gun has good effective range because of the long inner barrel. That and it looks very slick in my opinion because of the slim foregrip and green furniture. Now, part of the problem with this gun is that the inner barrel can move around too much inside its\' barrel assembly supports. This leads to some wandering BBs every so often. Not good, but easily fixed by wrapping some paper strips around the inner barrel to act as shims. This takes all of 5 minutes and eliminates the problem.

The other issue with the weapon that people have is that the foregrip plastic rubs against the plastic barrel assembly rails, causing a creaking sound. This can be addressed by applying tape to those rails so the plastic doesn\'t rub.

One last issue that can discourage some is that the selector switch isn\'t very solid-feeling. In fact, if you over-torque it (why are you trying to turn it past the stopping point anyway???), it can break fairly easily.

Most of the complaints of the gun are valid, but are also minor and user-caused. The positives in that there are 500rd hi-caps available, that the stock fits a large battery, and that the effective range is better than many other AEGs makes this gun very fun to use.

I have loaned mine out to teammates before, and they were very impressed with the range and how easy it was to carry. Part of that is because it is very light due to all the plastic, so the weaklings out there need not worry about carrying it all day. This gun is a bit long for those on the shorter side.

Overall, while improvements could be made to stiffen up this gun and really bring it to the forefront of the market, this AEG is worth considering as it will perform as well as any other out of the box.
