Product Information:
This is my current primary rifle for airsofting, and it has been for the last 4 years. I have fired over 1000 rounds through it, and have become very accustomed to its quirks and abilities. The gun out of the box fires a beautiful 500+ FPS, is pre-installed with barrel spacers to increase accuracy and comes with a bipod and adjustable rear stock, putting it ahead of VSR-10s by a long shot. Some argue this eliminates the ability to customize the weapon, because the Echo 1 M28 doesn't come with very many options for modification. I disagree. I have installed a precision barrel, steel sear set, reinforced piston and guide and a SP190 spring. Many of these products, the piston, spring guide and spring, are not intended for the M28 but for the VSR-10, because this gun is compatible with many VSR-10 parts. Another aspect I love about the M28 is its absolute endurance, this gun has been through everything, water, mud, drops from 3 story buildings, and it has survived like a pro. For a new airsofter joining the community or for a veteran of the game, this gun offers options for you.

Pros:
- Out-of-the-box perfection, with 500+ FPS, a fluted and spaced barrel, durable polymer stock, with bi-pod and stock adjustments.
- customizable with a wide range of parts, whether they are specified for the gun itself or are functional with other, similar models
- outrageous durability, has survived every test I've put it to yet
- easy to take apart

Cons:
- Internal parts like the plastic piston have to eventually be replaced, the piston and sear set will wear away with time and can cause slam firing.
- Not the lightest gun in the world
- the bi pod which comes with the gun is subject to its own problems, and is not 100% reliable.
- lacks specific modification parts, like pistons, which must then be bought for a different model and then occasionally jury-rigged to function inside of the M28.
