G3SG1, to complement what was already said.
Good simple gun, performs well, accurate, excellent range.
Maintenance is reasonably easy.
Large battery is a bonus.
Can take upgrades readily.
Accessories are available.
Simple and inexpensive upgrades equal a quick jump in performance.
Not as hard to handle as mentioned, but that is technique and practice. I'm not huge, and I dont mind it at all, but I was trained with things like Lee-Enfields, so take it as you may.
Cons; I truly HATE the guns that have motors simply shoved into the grip, as it's annoying to keep aligned properly and gets in the way of repairs (that applies to many AEGs).
Body creak; can be fixed in about two minutes.
Bipod; I find those extremely annoying. It rattles.
I consider it and the MP5 series to be another good buy. The company you choose to get it from will mean different levels of metal content. A full metal upgrade for a G3 gives you a massively heavy beast to lug around. Then it would be best if you are tall.
