Awesome AEG but there are issues
So to start off this thing is awesome. The range with .28 bbs is extremely good for such a short barrel and the accuracy is good enough for airsoft. The weight and feel of the gun is very realistic. CYMA metal magazines fit and feed perfectly albeit slightly tighter than the stock hi cap. Trigger response is great on an 11.1 tenergy valor battery and although the battery space is small I have actually gotten a 9.6 nunchuck in there.
On to the cons, having the battery in the handguard means that the wires must pass through an EXTREMELY small hole at the front of the receiver. It takes some serious patience to get them through the first couple times. There's also almost no room for the wires to slide beside the gearbox as it is so its easy to think it's together only to find that you can't seat the magazine anymore because the wires are sitting in the magwell. Due to this horrible design element (although there probably isn't another way) the wires will suffer some damage to the insulation when you take the receivers apart. If you try to re shrink them its almost always too big to fit out of the way of the mag well. Liquid wire repair will be your friend if you decide to do something as simple as change the barrel.
Now this con that is completely irrelevant on the A4 version, which is rear wired. I chose the A5 because I'm using it as a sniper secondary and wanted the smaller profile when not in use. The only other con that I can really speak to is that the rear sight is not an actual HK style sight. Meaning you cannot set elevation and then choose your aperture. If you don't know what I mean look up "mp5 rear sight tool" on YouTube. There's a tool you can insert into a real sight which unlocks the drum and allows you to raise or lower the sight and then lock that position while you can then choose which aperture you want. I got around this by simply installing a red dot but it would have been nice to be able to do both.
Those 2 design flaws/choices force me to give 4 stars instead of 5. All in all I love it and am totally pleased so far.
