1.That depends entirely on how well the hop up is tuned... The arm that exerts pressure on the hop up rubber is a bit flimsy, so be careful while adjusting it: don't torque it down to get more hop. Instead, think about an Rhop. Mine shoots pretty nice already, so I haven't had to play with the hop up yet.
2. I bought mine lightly used, and it seems to dump the mag without much hassle. It takes a few seconds longer to fill though than a pistol mag, as the mags are actually pretty big
3. I've had mine for a month+ only just fixed a manufacturers defect. No time to game it yet, so I couldn't tell you this. It empties a mag pretty quick + is fun to mess with though, so there is that.
4. I really can't comment on this without seeing it in person, or at least better pictures. The SMG8s have had a history of breaking in various places and WE generally has a history of mediocre quality if you believe the circle-jerk. It is used, so you can't be 100% sure of what you are getting until it's in your hands, so be prepared to have to tinker with it... If it was me, I would buy it for the mags+ having a spare gun to take parts from would be a bonus.
If you buy it, be prepared to buy new sears for $100, and re-grease/lube it right away. Installing a recoil buffer might be wise idea too, but I don't think it's required for the new versions.
