Product Information:
What a great gun. External build is of fantastic quality, as is to be expected from VFC. Everything fits together really nicely and feels rock solid. My buddy picked it up once I kitted it out and thought I had bought a new real steel short barreled rifle until he dropped the magazine out. Accuracy is good considering the short barrel, but it's acceptable for field play out of the box. I dropped an M4 length tightbore into it and put a suppressor on the end to cover the extension. I really haven't felt the need to upgrade it any further. It spits out 12-15 RPS with a 7.4 LiPo, which I got in an exchange from GI when the NiMH batteries I bought didn't fit in the crane stock. (9.6v 2000 mah crane stock batteries are too long to fit in this gun, the butt pad won't reattach) Magazine compatibility is good. I've test run a few different hicaps from my teammates and they run just fine. MAG midcaps also work, but you have to be sure they seat correctly. A little practice on your reloads and they'll work great. Also, DO NOT USE .2G BBs. The stock hop up still shoots way high even when it's on the lowest setting. .25s seem to work best.

Pros:
Extremely high quality external build, rock solid
Decent ROF with 7.4 LiPo
Good accuracy out of the stock barrel
Not a pain to get taken apart to clean
FPS is around CQB level (350-360)
Orange tip is metal and easily removable, easy to put it back on if you need to transport it
Can feed from every M4/M16 magazine I tested it with
Bolt catch makes it easy to adjust the hop up
HK trademarks EVERYWHERE

Cons:
$$$, I got it when it was 22% off on Memorial Day, probably wouldn't have shelled out the money otherwise
Hop up is too strong for .2g rounds (not necessarily a con, but something to take note of)
11.1v LiPos void the warranty
FPS is a little low for field play out of the box, but this is easily fixed
Included hicap mag is useless if you lose the little winding tool, I only use it as a backup to my backups. Otherwise it works fine.
