The issue about quality for price is a tough one seeing as by the whole manufacturing costs are much higher in Japan so that could account in part for the large price gap. Jing Gong MAY be using the exact same quality of materials that TM or CA does, we really have no way of knowing for sure (at least at this time). <-----(more fun with speculation)

All speculation aside, only time will tell if the Jing Gongs are worth their price. Heck, I'm willing to gamble on it and have ordered a couple for loner/backup guns so maybe further down the road others will be able to learn from the experiences of myself and whoever else buys the JGs.

So until then let's not say that Jing Gong is the Holy Grail of airsoft and let's also not say that only companies that charge for $450 + Canadian can make a decent weapon (there's no need for fussin' and fightin').

Just my thoughts.

Happy gaming everyone,

Makes sense for the most part, except for the fact that Classic Army guns are also made in China, and are rather expensive.
