I would put the RM4 as my second choice. No GBB headaches but get the benefits of recoil and bolt stop with the reliability of an aeg.

I would ask yourself what role you want your next gun to be and go from there. I haven't used my AEG's since the summer since getting the LM4. I would rather mess with the nuances of a GBB than an AEG any day. Way less moving parts = less that can go wrong. LM4 isn't perfect (I have had to fix a couple of mag leaks, but they're soooo easy to service), but I'll never have to get into an annoying gear box again.

So KRISS Vector or LM4 is what I would suggest, but only if it's your style of play/airsoft/milsim. Don't get it just because it's cool, even though they are cool.

Oh, and GBB's are arguably the most realistic replicas you can get when compared to their real steal counter part.

I'll second both Dos and Brandon.

Get the LM4. I just bought one a few weeks ago based on Dos' posts here and on the KWA forum as well as Ash's recommendation. I used it last weekend at the MILSIM West event. It was about 40 degrees out and I was picking off Russian fools like crazy.

I need to sell my AEG before everyone discovers the LM4 and floods the market with their old AEGs.

Oh yeah..... and buy from Brandon.

If/when you get an LM4, be sure to go to the LM4 forum on KWA's technical forum. There are a few mods that are considered a must to enhance the LM4's functionality (i.e. bolt catch mod so the charging handle resets the bolt as in its real steal counter part). Both Akiraspeedstar (Geckoactual) and BoobieM4H have lead the way on making the LM4 what it should be.

Just an FYI.

Damn, you guys got your LM4 to work in 40* weather? Mine said "screw you" and didn't. lol. Maybe I should just buy a BNIB or at least a LNIB one this time...
Bye.
