For starters:

1 - Prove it's a Classic Army mechbox (Something tells me that's hearsay)

2 - explain the benefits of a CA mechbox over a Marui mechbox (Legend has it that the stock TM V3 mechbox is notoriously hard to kill)

3 - explain how an extra 60 feet/second in velocity makes the gun superior if it comes at the cost of other problems (see next point for elaboration)

4 - provide evidence that the extra velocity isn't a comprimise for any number of the following things: shot consistency / hop-up quality / mechbox longevity / battery life / etc.

5 - Suggest perhaps that you understand you're taking a quality control risk when buying a clone product, and that the money you're 'saving' is generally a gamble:

-----There's the possibility of different tolerances, fit and finish differences, material differences, different manufacturing processes - all of which can contribute to any number of problems which are historically "less likely to occur" when buying a product from a company such as Tokyo Marui. (take a look at the "Airsoft Gun Long-term Reliability" thread and read a little about the TM G36C)

5.5 (addendum) - Substantiate the claim that they use the "same materials"

5.57 (add-addendum) - Substantiate just about everything you stated...

6 - consider the fact that the charger and battery you're recieving with the product are produced under similar conditions to the knock-off gun you just bought, and factor in the likelihood of replacing them with better/more functional items after a certain period of time. (what a waste that'd be...)

7 - Your "2 peeps with the guns" story doesn't have any information about the history of the guns involved, and only goes so far as to say "no problems with the JG yet".

----- If he's owned it for 3 hours, and the TM has undergone upgrades / been abused / etc., then you're not proving anything.
----- Tax in would make it about a $315 dollar gun (multiply that by 1.13, I could have punched it in wrong)

8 - ... etc.

I don't personally have anything riding on this thing, and I guess I don't really give a damn what you buy, but it's silly seeing someone who doesn't seem to know what they're talking about trying to justify a preference just because they're having their views on it challenged.

So in summary: you're being silly, and who gives a damn what people think?

If you still figure you're right about this whole thing, buy a Jing Gong and prove everyone wrong.
