It's like an AEG mixed with a Systema. The quick change springs system is useless because it uses proprietary springs. Piston is also proprietary iirc. Gears are replaceable, but you'll have to short stroke any gear set you get to match the piston.

The spring release safety feature is easily broken because they used plastic parts. The hop up is standard M4, so that's a plus.

A step in the right direction, but it's still not a great gun for upgrading purposes. It falls back to the category of guns you buy stock to leave them stock.

looks way better than a ptw because ptw are overpriced and have crappy hop ups. ptw clones are awesome.

You should not get this, and wait untill the Echo 1 ETW comes out in june, supposed to have full metal body, and 1 to 1 features as the systema. Except it will use the standard AEG hop up.

P* have their advantages and disadvantages. If you're up for it, and have the money, I say do it. But if not, ICS M4s are a good alternative.
