ARES Enhanced M4A1 or Echo1/VFC M4 Platinum Edition?

Hi,

I have trouble to decide which one should I get but I picked these two because they are both in the configuration that I desired(Crane Stock + Standard Handguard, since I got hold on a real steel KAC RAS system).

From what I read so far, the Echo1/VFC's offering has proven internals(all 8mm ball bearings, LIPO ready) and a better packaging(hard case, two(1 hi and 1 midcap) magazines and with an one-point sling mount pre-installed), while ARES' offering has some innovative features(quick-change spring system, micro switch trigger system, buffer tube can be switched to a real steel ones) and upgrades(steel controls, ergo pistol grip and trigger guard, improved internals).

Both of them has their merits but I can only get one of these...your opinions?

Echo1 re-brands almost every single gun (NOT EVERY). P90s come from KS, Armalites tend to come from JG, etc.

In my opinion, go for VFC, they have an amazing track record based on the reviews on here, while ARES seems somewhat... i don't know how to put it... mysterious? There's the TAVOR that people appreciate on here, as well as some other guns; with having minor issues such as an incredibly sensitive mag release (easily fixed).

Get vfc. Ares qc is hit or miss. Plus the internals is off spec from TM

I love me some VFCs. They're great guns. Hop up sucks though.

I say just go for whichever one you like more, both have there hits and misses but both are TM compatible so upgrade parts/replacement parts are plentiful.

But out of the box VFC is the definite winner.
