im not really "looking" for a GBB(R) but if there is a good one ill consider it. that being said i am looking for a year round gun. which is going to make GBB(R) difficult. the WE m14 looks sweet in wood, but its the full length barrel

also, i love WE guns for there build quality, but... from my experience, they are PIGS on gas!!
yeah i am completely sold on anything marui

dont get me started on my collection lol. ive also had good experiences with G&G so i was curious about their M14. as of now, i will cross the G&G version off my list.
i was looking through available parts for the TM m14 and it does seem to be a sweet platform! im just worried about the initial cost of buying it :S one other thing is that, i have noticed with EVERY Marui AEG i have held, is that they seem really "creaky" and loose. I like my guns to be sturdy and rugged. how is the TM m14 in this aspect?
kjw 10/22 - $400
mags - $27ish landed
Barrel - $50ish landed
externals - already acquired.
TM M14 (Socom) - $800+?
Mags (mid) - $20-$30 landed
Barrel - $70ish landed
Internals - $200+
Lipo - $25ish +
yikes! :S from this aspect, the 10/22 is looking like a viable option!
but before price comes performance! ugh! i wish i could get a direct comparison
