A&K Masada AEG

Great gun out of the box!
I own the black version, and I must say it is quite solid performing. Externals are solid. Polymer is good quality though the handguard feels a bit cheap (just personal opinion. No one else who held my gun seemed to feel this way), and the metal reciever ties it together as a solid gun. Weight is suprisingly light, and the stock is decently durable. Battery space can be a bit tight with larger batteries, but they can fit with a little wiggle and shake action. Charging handle and bolt feel a bit flimsy however, and I wouldn't play around with them excessively. The mag it comes with wiggles slightly, but this was corrected easily with some electrical tape. Gun was shooting 410 out of the box with .20 BBs, which is one of the hardest hitting out-of-box stock AEGs I've used. Accuracy is also good for a stock gun. Hop up is a bit cheap and I would recommend replacing sooner than later, but it will last you a while. Other internals are decent, and parts are quite widely available for upgrades since it runs a Version 2 gearbox, with many parts shared with M4s/M16s. Fire selector switch is easy to use, but is a bit sticky. Gun was also pretty loud, but this can be fixed with internal upgrades. Monolithic rail is great for a wide array of optics and whatever you please to slap on. Iron sights it comes with are a bit meh, but then again, who uses Iron sights??
The gun seems a bit pricey for an A&K, but you're paying pretty much for what you get. And what you get is a solid gun that is great for starters, and good for intermediate to expert level players because of it's upgradeability.

While it seems like I've listed a lot of negative things here, these are just things I experienced personaly, but none were major draw backs. I was incredibly pleased with this gun, especially for an A&K.

Pros:
Solid feel and construction
Great FPS for a stock gun
Good internals
Decently accurate
Hop up is easily adjustable
Seats and feeds almost all PMags and M4 mags well
Great looking gun
Durable
Quite widely upgradeable
Well performing for a stock gun
Good weight
Well balanced from toe to heel/barrel to stock
Other people love the look of it, and you will draw in many compliments and wishful looks
Gun becomes a beast with a few internal upgrades

Cons:
Plastic hop up
Stock mag wobbles (might have just been mine however)
Rails scratch kinda easily, which can be a pain if you are frequently switching optics as the paint comes off fast
Included iron sights are not very great
Charging handle and bolt seem a bit wimpy, but I don't really expect them to break
Fire selector switch is sticky and a bit concerning. Still feel like it will jam or break at any point
Mildly loud, so you better be running and gunning because you won't be all that stealthy from the bushes
Included orange flash hider was pretty meh, and the gun looks 5 times better once switched out with a metal one
