I guarantee once you hold a PTW, you'll forget about her. No offence, but.. nothing really compare to a PTW in terms of fit/finish/feel.

Awesome gun regardless.

Why thank you :) Looking forward to receiving the said covers. Will keep my hands cut-free AND look awesome. :)

Which 416 is it? vfc, jg... I'd never let go of the 416 even for a ptw but then again I'd want to get the 417 if it ever comes out... and if you are looking to sell (vfc version only) I'll be first in line wanting to buy...

JG 416s. Nice guns man. I'm quite impressed by mine. I'm comparing the body to my old TM M4 plastic body, and TM has NOTHING on this in terms of quality, be it material or cosmetic. I actually much prefer the finish on the JG body over the TM. Looks more realistic if you ask me. I find the TM looked like plastic. You can't tell this is plastic by looking at it. And holding the gun and feeling the weight (granted, it's the heavy RIS), you'd think you've got an all-metal gun in hand.

Bad picture, but this is what mine looks like now. I also have a front grip installed now and a cheapo PEQ box flashlight (for temporary cosmetic purposes only) that came with an old RIS M4 springer I had for a few years as a wall piece.

so overall thoughts on the jg 416 are good? good enough to be fielded stock?

Mine shoots about 430 fps stock, so no, it can't be fielded stock in Canada. A spring downgrade is definitely required. Metal bushings and a shim job would probably be recommended too, but if you put in a 340 fps spring or less, you may be able to get away with the plastic bushings. and stock shim job. But for the price of the shims snf bushings, if you already have the mechbox open, you might as well swap 'em out and shim it.

I know I'd have no qualms about fielding my totally stock JG MP5 shooting at 340-ish fps.
