Buying an airsoft gun is not unlike buying a car. You can't say that ALL Honda's are good while ALL Nissan's are bad. Get my point. There are good and bad in all brands and some models, unfortunately, are only made by 1 or 2 manufacturers, so your choices may be somewhat limited. If you pick a specific gun, like an MP5 or an Armalite variant, there will be lots of choices and lots of info on problems, reliabilty, performance, etc. If you go for a unique gun, like an AUG or a SIG552, your choices currently are limited to 1 manufacturer and you have to deal with their specific issues. Some companies have generally poor track records and some have good track records, but I assure you NO AIRSOFT MANUFACTURER IS FLAWLESS AND ALL AIRSOFT GUNS WILL FAIL AT SOME POINT. I can't stress that enough. Some manufacturers may have issues in a whole batch of guns, and some will not.

Like I've said previously, pick a specific gun and you'll be able to find enough info, good or bad, to help you make a decision. Good luck!!!
