In a nut shell, it's a POS. I could throw bb's farther than it could shoot them, literally.

Just buy something half decent. Look at AEG's from one of the major manufactuers such as Tokyo Marui, Classic Army, G&P, G&G, ICS etc ...

Figure out what rifle you like the look of then do a simple search and read a couple reviews. Noone is here to spoonfeed you information all day. Another great thing about searching is that you come across important information that you never thought about previously, but were glad to find.

My KA clones of the original TM mags were 18 a piece. Star Locaps are about 10 per mag.

Just save your money and buy something decent. TM, ICS, CA, etc... Read the FAQ, it will answer pretty much everything. If you buy a "economy" or cheap gun like that, the rate you'll be going through guns will be equivelant to a fire going through gasoline. Which is also an analogy of how you'll be spending your money.. you might as well burn it.

Save up and get a reputable brand.

Do not buy crap, period.

taylorvw · October 29th, 2006, 16:48

alright.. I am looking at TM sig 552,P90 TR or a famas. I read good on all of them.I hope to find somthing used so i dont need to buy alot of upgrades. although the famas is 400$

kuchervano · October 29th, 2006, 16:54

So are P90s, and demi-upgraded (read broken) AEGs. New not necesserily means better, too.

Thanks for taking one for the team and sharing your review. That thread should be made into a sticky for anyone thinking about buying a crappy gun to save a few bucks.
