Product Information:
A friend just bought this, after deciding to upgrade from Echo1. Seemed like the V3 would be okay. This isnt a widespread problem, but its noteworthy that his had an overactive hop up. even at the lowest setting it made the bb go vertical at about 65 feet. We tried everything from trying to breaking it in to lube to .30 gram bbs. no matter what the hop just didnt quit.

I field stripped it down, cleaned out the barrel and tried to gently squeeze the rubber and lever a bit higher. it made the bb go into a 45 degree climb at about 85 feet now. Idk seems to be only his gun because I havent heard of this anywhere else.

as for the gun itself. Its easy to open up and clean. the body is rather cheap and plasticy feeling. lots of flash and seam-lines on the stock. the front sight seems to be an ugly mass of plastic that makes my respect for this gun fall. the bolt catch works nicely but attempting an "HK Slap" is difficult because of how well the bolt locks. As mentioned in some youtube reviews, the return spring on the bolt is very stiff and rather overdone. I recommend clipping some coils off the end of it until it is a more desirable strength. the battery compartment can only take a 7 cell stick maximum. The sight of my Firefox 1500mah 8 cell sticking out of the back was rather depressing.

If i encounter one that shoots straight, seems like it would be a nice skirmishable gun. The stock is rather long for an SMG feel, and its heft is closer to an assault rifle. The magazine well is so wide that it gives you the impression that you are grabbing a large cinderblock rather far from your body, rather than the rolled and tight feel of gripping an MP5 in the same manner.

user preference. If it works, for $240 its not a bad price you could do a LOT worse. glad to see they make midcaps for it though, jesus do I hate hicaps.
