Got my SRC 416 from 007 at Xmas and haven't had a problem with at all. Now for the record like any AEG you get these day you can't use the spring that comes with them (430fps is too hot.) and I down graded mine to a systema M100 (you don't need huge FPS to be a good player, most of my other AEGs are still stock marui's). I'm using a 9.6V 1600mah NiMh Batt and have put about 3000 round through it with so much as a hic-up. Other than the fake bolt catch rattling I wouldn't change a thing about it. Yes its not as perfect externally as VFC but the ammount of money I save compared to a VFC was considerable. Now I'm not advicating against VFC but I have seen and heard of their mech boxes failing miserably after only a few rounds too. A little due diligence will keep even the crapiest AEG alive and well for years.
