I have 4 of them I've bought on sale, have 800 rounds or so through 1, almost all suppressed. Its been 100% except for 1 window PMAG that locked back with rounds, but its done it on other rifles so I pitched it into the junk box. The other 3 I've never shot. |

If their specs can be believed, decent bolt, barrel. The only gripe I have is whatever aluminum the rail is made of gets hotter quicker than a similar PSA rail. Granted the PSA rail has a slightly larger diameter, but it does get noticeably hotter, especially shooting suppressed. |

In fact, that is what many people criticize liberals for. “If you are not XYZ, then you cannot speak about it.” Also, high quality air soft guns can have much better fit, finish, and feel than the typical low cost AR product. Sometimes airsoft stuff, on the surface, is much higher quality. |

I have no doubt that mine would function for any realistic self defense scenario I would find myself in. I've only cleaned it once in over 800 rounds suppressed, just because it was new, and after 200 rounds I wanted to detail clean it, to inspect the bolt lugs, etc, and it was fine. Its been over 600 rounds since. I squirt lube on the BCG before heading to the range. |

Well, at the risk of making this more GD'ish I think it's a fallacy to use the term "air soft" or "toy" for a weapon that uses standard "milspec" barrel steel and spec aluminum receivers, one with you have zero hands-on experience. A weapon that others in this thread have actually used and for which they've provided a worthwhile response. As far as their other "manufacturing processes" their BCGs seem to follow well-established practices and materials. https://www.primaryarms.com/andro-corp-ar-15-m16-bolt-carrier-group-nitride-finish As I said I have no desire for more GD back and forth, so this is all I have to say and the floor is yours from this point on. |
