I've had this gun for quite a while now and it still works good. I got this gun a Gander for the same price. I'm a beginner at airsoft so I got this gun first. It's a really good beginner weapon, it leaves welts and sometimes can make you bleed if you are too close. The bad thing about this is that sometimes it gets jammed alot but I still like it. It's a great gun for beginners, I love it.
