As for the body the PTS has polymer and I think the A&k (and its clones) do to. I know that Cybergun has one with polymer (still wouldn't touch it) But if your going to A&K version. I'd recommend getting the G&P one they basically took the A&k one and added the reliablity of G&P parts.

Good luck finding the G&P version, they were hard to find while they were still in production.

I sure hope you're not referring to the gears.

Well yea G&P gears need alot of shimming, but I mean there better than A&K parts.

Occasionally a not so great company makes a gem, such as the Cyma Thompson or the Army R27. The A&K Masada is one of those gems, while it may have deficiencies so does the PTS version. And for the price you can basically get 2 A&K's for the price of one PTS. I really can say enough good things about the A&K Masada.

Looks like it's the A&K then ") thx all.

Looks like A&K is the best choice or the G&P version if you can find it.

Remington has made some really cool changes to the ACR.

- fixed retractable stock
- new rail system
- fluted barrel
- new charging handle
- new advanced ACR lower

i can also see a new brass deflector and trigger guard. Too bad an airsoft version of this will never be made :(

I really like the looks of that. Maybe somebody will make a body kit?

Remington is actually going to submit that to the Army Improved Carbine competition

"It features a magnesium lower, with standard AR-15 grip and trigger guard, adjustable but non-foldable stock, carbine-length gas system, no quick change barrel (it has a new barrel nut), folding charging handle and new metal finishes. These changes help shave 1.8 lbs of weight from the gun."

One thing I would check is the power of the gun - the UK classification of "air rifle" is significantly different to many other countries - as such, many guns sold as airsoft guns in other countries are classed as air rifles here, and importing one of these is highly illegal, and you will go to jail if you try to. Basically anything shooting above 450 FPS, but as FPS quotes vary, you'll need to find out the spring energy of the gun you're importing.
what about doing it in pieces?

Lets not derail this thread.... It is not recommended that you import them on your own. Get Av'd.

So, overall, is the PTS a good buy overall if you cana get it used?

Its a pretty good buy. I've had mine for over a year. Love it. NO problems as long as you don't run a strong lipo like a 11.1 and use a 400+FPS spring. People have had their gearboxes crack because they were using a spring that was too strong.
