I got an ECHO1 for $235 back when they still made the mk16 version. I've had countless problems with it though. I had a faulty motor gear on arrival, outer barrel completely falling off the gun, crappy design of selector switch for dis-assembly to get into the gear box, and a broken screw in the gear box on arrival. If I had a choice to buy one now, I would get the G&G officially licensed by FNH for $340.
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind if I get one. I currently have an Echo 1 E90, nicely built gun and no problems except that semi has stopped working correctly (sometimes it will fire auto instead?). Im thinking it has something to do with the receptor things on the gearbox where the trigger bar touches. Might be bent, I guess.
Get a VFC if you're gonna get a SCAR. Best build quality IMO.
Get the SSV version too :)
I'm weak, I spent a bunch of my holiday money on this:
SRC M4 RIS with an SRC M4 metal lower, ambidextrous magazine release, and ambidextrous M4 rear sling mount. The pictures doesn't show the ambidetrous parts as I hadn't installed them yet...
I grabbed 8 FDE 70rd PMAGs to go wth by SCAR as well, they look awesome. I'll try and post an image of them later, with the M4 beside it with the ambiextrous stuff installed. Also got an 11.1v LiPO battery which is freaking awesome. I still need to do some rewiring on both the guns, the SCAR needs a new DEANS connector since the one it has is broken, and the M4 needs to be converted to DEANS.
Nice, I too picked up a set of 5 DE PMAGs a while back. I also sold off my old generic tac vest and replaced it with a CIRAS. And before that I picked up a full metal WE 4.3 scale M1911. Haven't played at all with my new gear though. My group has been real lazy recently, and all the recent talks about gun control has deterred me a bit from playing.
OK here we go, not the greatest picture since I didn't bother with lighting. Just ran the auto setting on the DSLR as well, didn't bother with white balance, most of the color correction was just the auto filters in Photoshop CS6.
I love the FDE mags in relation to the SCAR, almost a perfect match for it. They look great in the M4 as well actually. You can see the difference between FDE and tan as well, the ones on the floor are tan, the one in the SCAR and in the vest are FDE.
Meet Mr. Cup, who I just realized was the perfect mount for my airsoft headgear a few minutes ago:
I got to say, he looks pretty bad ass.

Been meaning to make one of these for awhile. Probably going to redo it in front if my green screen if I can find it. Much later though, much much later... Like sometime in 2013.
i have one of those mesh face masks just like yours, but my fucking nose is too large to fit in it. it presses right against my nose. if i bumped the mask at all, i feel like my nose would break. very frustrating...
i have a pretty decent arsenal i never actually posted for whatever reason. its all at home though, so i cant post it until im back from school.
Yeah my mesh mask mashes my nose as well, but when I have my ear pro on it's much better. Since the video I found a way to get the mask under the ear pro without it being uncomfortable on my ears, and the ear pro keeps the mask far enough down and away from my nose that it doesn't crush it anymore.
What kind of gloves do you use?
Scrolled up. I thought they'd be Oakleys. Well, I guess most people like their design anyways.
I love the idea of airsoft, but it's just way too expensive to get into it in Canada.
