A&K SPR Mod0?

Hey guys, I've been considering this gun, and wanted some opinions on it. The reviews are excellent, and so far it seems like a good buy. It fits nicely into my fairly low price range, and I am very tempted. I will probably end up downgrading the spring by quite a bit since it comes stock at around 430fps.

Okay, you've read some reviews, and you have done your research, and came to the conclusion you want the gun. Why do you need our opinion?

I didnt say I wanted it for sure. I said I was tempted. I was just asking how people feel about A&K and this model. Reviews on retailer websites don't say much about how good the gun actually is. Most are written a few days after they received it, and haven't actually tested it's durability and performance in a match.

Because reviews suck.

A&K from what I've heard is hit and miss. You may get a lemon, parts might not be placed in correctly, something is broken, etc.

A&K is a chinese company, and with that their parts are inconsistent from time to time, and they use cheap metals, And the list goes on and on.

Some people argue that they're guns are quite fit for the job, others say that they could use a little more work. You want the rifle, You can either buy it and be happy with the purchase or ragequit all life and spend dollar after dollar on a cheap chinese rifle. You've been warned.

A&K and other Chinese manufacturers have done some major improvements to their designs in the past year. although they're not the best guns on the market. the cheaper guns make great beginners guns

That's not worth anywhere near $240.

Amongst the airsoft have their own strong and weak points. Depends on what's the spec. you are looking for yourself and affordability. I would said it is acceptable and beginner favorite, as code789 acknowledged earlier.
