- NPAS works as advertised (once installed/This is the only upgrade i did in internals)
- If it ain't broke don't fix it (dont needlessly upgrade out of the box), people say new hop up rubber and inner barrel but i haven't done either and it shoots great
- Cool down is not bad unless you shoot on full auto (which is a terrible idea anyways)
- I have only used green gas mags but i hear the CO2 is even better with the cool down
- The body has really no markings (paint seems to flake/peel easily)
- I have not tested it in winter but i hear hand warmers are good to keep the mags in working order
- The 416 apparently does not work with the new PMags? (but if you change its body to the M4 version it does apparently)
- I'd assume that more people use WE then the VFC so borrowing mags/gear will be easier (this is just my assumption, i have not really seen many GBBRs in the places iv played)
- The hop up is adjusted with a Allen key (supplied) right above the inner barrel and is really annoying to adjust (typically have to remove the bolt to adjust it)

This is all i can think of right now

I have the WE HK416 and also and I'm loving it!

The PMAGs are able to fit with a little sanding of the mag around its front unless you have a V3 pmag that don't have the extra bump but Im not sure those have been made as a we gbb mag... maybe a real PMAG with the we gbb mag stuffed in it.

also the M4 lower can fit but there is a slight distance between the take down pins on each receiver so some sanding/filing will be required

cheers enjoy your GBB!
