VFC VR16 Elite II vs VFC/Spartan SRX 306

[LilGordon]

I'm in the market for a new airsoft gun and I have pretty much narrowed my choice down to two guns (both of which seem to be the same gun, assembled by two different companies). The rifles in question are the VFC VR16 Tactical Elite II and the Spartan SRX 306 (OEM'd by VFC).

My question is, is it risky to buy the Spartan version vs the VFC version? The Spartan SRX seems to use the exact same parts as the VFC, the only difference being that the VFC version has purely VFC logos on the receivers, whereas the Spartan version has Spartan and VFC logos on the receivers. The spartan version is a bit cheaper and I can buy it from my local airsoft store, however the VFC version is a bit more expensive and isn't available locally. I've never had any experience with buying a gun from a manufacturer that OEMs from another manufacturer (hope I worded that correctly..)

Any and all help is greatly appreciated

They're the same.

I'm sure the components are the same but is it possible that they may be assembled with different tolerances when in the factory? I'm just debating whether or not its worth the extra drive plus money to go get the VFC VR16 instead.

[EOD Steve]

No. Literally they all roll out of the same factory in Taiwan.

Spartan just pays VFC to roll their trades on the receivers.

As long as they're of the same series, they should be exactly the same. As long as the latter isn't based on an E series of something they should be the same
