no, especially at 5x it's worth

EDIT: more helpful answer is for 50$ more (actually, not really, you need to add tax on the 250$ craptastic gun) you get JG guns in the classifieds.

Get age verified.

Chances are that if the gun is tested with .12's its CRAP

WTB: [Panther Arms M4A1 Carbine] 249g! <--- Heh, nerd joke.

But for serious, that's a terrible airsoft replica and for a few dollars more you can get something competitive in the classifieds section.

yeah i'd get age verified and see what kinds of quality airsoft guns are available used or second-hand before you jump right in and blow $250 on that gun.

i looked at it in store, and it looks really cheaply made, like it would break if you looked at it funny... If you do buy it, then kiss that money goodbye, because you're not getting a $250 gun. you're getting a $60 gun, and grabbing your ankles to boot.

That is a terrible price for something like that. I wouldnt even have bothered considering it as an option. 420 FPS with a 0.12g thats about 325ish I guess with a 0.20g BB, but FPS doesnt make the gun. I believe Ive actually had the pleasure of seeing the inside of the mechbox of said low quality airsoft gun, the only thing that impressed me was how amazingly shoddy the quality of some of the internals were.

Investing in a poor quality overpriced airsoft gun such as this would be like punching an unsuspecting person in the back of the head. Except youre the unsuspecting person.

my opinion is................ FUCK IT!

the only thing good to come out of a cabelas or basspro are aftermath products

getting a jg would be a hell of a lot better than getting that thing

Seriously, do everyone including yourself a favor and get age verified.

Everything will become better after that.

Don't do it. They sell the same thing at gander mountain and the quality is piss poor. While some AEG's are plastic, they use a heavy polycarbonate or nylon fibre type material. While those are just cheap everyday plastic. If money is tight, a NEWER JG is a good choice, they can be found brand new for around $350.00. +/- They are not really designed for gaming, more just plinking and stuff, they just won't survive the abuse.
