I would highly advise against buying a WE GBBR, the stock internals are absolute crap, you have to replace literally every part with RA-Tech steel upgrades to ensure that it stays in working order, not only that, but the nozzles like to snap in half a lot, the bolt catch mechanism is terrible, and the number of aftermarket parts available for it is just pitiful, for the amount of money you would put into it to ensure it is in working order just isn't worth it. I personally owned two WE GBBRs (open and closed bolt) and had nothing but problems, and I have seen countless friends WE's break continually. I'm sure tons of people will stand by their WE's but I have never witnessed a larger margin of gun failures than with the WE GBBR's. I know you want a scar, but if you want a gas rifle, go for an Inokatsu, Viper, G&P WOC, or some other brand that runs off of the MANGA (WA) gas system, and ProWin mags (which never leak). I have had my G&P WOC for about 8 months now, and haven't had any major failures (no parts breaking).
