so basicly its a JG with the E1 marks on it, or the factory it came from, it is the same quality as the cheaper alternative which is secretly the same. Sorry im not good at the lower end guns, also we are way OT
Almost. Echo 1 hires companies like JG, Galaxy, Kart, DBoys, etc to make guns to their requested specifications, and package it to their specs as well. They are exactly the same quality, it's just that some guns have some different parts, such as bushings, etc...

Know wonder, bcause my friend and I do not make these stories up, had ordered a Galaxy MP5 PDW of AGI, and when he got it, it was in a E1 box and did not have the galexy symbol on it.

can you give me a link to the dboys gun you are referring to?

all I found on ASGI was these. That's what I based my hypothesis on.

This is just FYI. Apparently the VA guns from E1 are just JG metal-bodied guns or even CYMA guns (I will look into this more later) with VA logos and a custom box. If you don't mind losing the trades, just get a JG gun for MUCH cheaper.

I'm aware Very Happy

ty

The metal on most VA guns is.....good, but it scratches easy. So if the E1 is a DB rebrand, wouldn't the body be made of high quality metal?

^Yes. The DBoys armalite metal quality is equivalent to CA. So while it is not high grade, it is definitely a step up from your average ACM metal body.

On the other hand, the kalash series AEGs, have a much high quality metal build, from what I have seen.

The only problem with the AK, is that it takes a stick battery......

Thats no issue when you replace the standard battery with something like an Intellect 1400MAH stick battery. That should last you at least 2000 shots.

HOLY ****
I go to school and come back and see three pages on my thread, THANKS!! Im serious too. I think i am going to settle on the M4 because of the better internals. Also, I almost like the fact it is plastic because it is lighter and the plastic is super nice and durable. The last reason is because I already have an AK-47 so i kinda want to switch things up and get an M4. Oh and the stick battery for the 74 is a pain as well. Thanks guys for the great feedback!!!

do you think a 9.6 would fit?

if he plays longer games, he will need several stick batteries which costs a lot.

according to demosquad, a stick battery lasts 2000 rounds. (bbs)

I suggest this M4 because it can hold a large type batteries which are up to like 3300 mah.

off of the M4?

yes, it is removable. If you are looking at the one with the collapsible stock, yes the handle is also removable.

It is removeable but If you want to remove it to put a scope on, I reccomend you not to because if you do, the front sight is in the way, if you take that off you will be fine. If you get a scope, mount it on the carrying handle, but it has to be a specialized M4/M16 scope

OK, I think I am going to stick with the original one I was looking at. I dont mind too much having a smaller battery. And I already have leapers red dot so the would only work with the original one I was looking at.
This is the original.

Locking it would be fine with me unless anybody else has any final comments.

I use a leapers red/green dot (full metal) and it is 30 bucks. It works GREAT. Can adjust it easily, great battery life, and it is durable. It comes with a cleaning cloth and it has spring powered lens caps.

I meant the Cheapest available to me I dont doubt it. But the AMP works great, and for 85 dollars, they cell a 2x magnifying red dot.
