Product Information:
Mine came in and the upper receiver looks like it's gold. I've seen several people crack their stock from CO2 mags. The gun cannot handle the blow back that the CO2 delivers. I no longer feel satisfied to shoot my AEG's any more, so all of my AEG's are just loaner guns to my friends. Since it is low cap magazines, conserving ammo is very important. Magazines are approximately 40 dollars a piece, depending on where you buy them. I think the sights on the gun are butt ugly so I removed both of them and put on my ACOG replica.

Pros:
Blow Back
Weight
Trademarks
ambidextrous controls
realistic pistol grip
folding stock
30 round low cap
CCW thread
CQB Barrel
Adjustable stock
Adjustable cheek riser
Must charge bolt to switch to safe or full
Bolt locks after last round
Has dry fire switch on magazine
Magazine is probably good for about 50 rounds during the winter
Field Strips easily
Ton of rail space
Very loud gun

Cons:
Bolt handle wobbles a little
Gun won't cycle properly without lubrication
Lower receiver wobbles a little bit, easy fix
CO2 can and probably will destroy your stock, recommend green gas only
Torque wrench is too small to be useful.
Placement for the Torque wrench is loose, feels like it can fall out.
Cheap Red Dots will die due to the vibration of the gun.
Must store mags with a little gas in them to keep the O-rings from drying up
Requires a lot of maintenance
Grease, a lot of grease.
Must clean the gun BEFORE every day of use.
Must clean the gun AFTER every day of use. (Take care of your gear, gear will take care of you)
Lubricate the O-rings on the magazine otherwise they will leak.


I highly recommend this gun for experienced airsofters who like MilSim play. You will not be disappointed. However, I also recommend that beginners should reconsider buying this gun. It is a very cool gun, but trust me, beginners wouldn't lost very long in a game with this gun. Stick to AEG's until you feel comfortable playing with standard mags first.
