IMO Echo 1's are good starter guns, but should not be used by a serious player. Do yourself a favor and get a G&G or a VFC . They both make 74's and they blow Echo1's out of the water.

Re: ak74 or akm style?
please my gearbox in my stag 15 was way better than any G@G when it was stock. G@G gearboxes come with nothing great, no high speed motor, no tight bore, and they have a plastic hop up. no thanks if you have nothing positive to say please refrain from posting , echo 1 has really stepped there game up,Twitch wrote:IMO Echo 1's are good starter guns, but should not be used by a serious player.

G&G > Echo 1 anytime. Just because they have a higher spring in their guns doesn't mean their GB can take it forever.

WOW you have absolutely no idea what your talking about. Just like CA's are better than TM's... G&G and VFC are some of the best AEGS with GREAT externals to boot. KWA's will run forever stock, but the externals and product line leave more to be desired.

Re: ak74 or akm style?
Ok guys don't be talkin crap unless you have had your hands on a 2011 stag 15. It's not just the spring, it has way more upgrades pre installed than G&G, it's still no kwa though, and Zander look who's talking shit after he lowered the price of his glove hahaha. G&Gs don't come with nearly as many upgrades as the new stag series. The first time I fielded mine I was standing by 2 guys who were ironically using a g&g and a kwa and they were blown away by what my echo was doing. Come with yalls guns loaded next time and blaze I have heard of kwa making ak's I'm waiting to see if they are going to be any good

Re: ak74 or akm style?
man so just what's a good 74 style weapon, something that's not gonna break the bank to bad. I already have stuff to upgrade a version 3 gearbox. I'm thinking of buying a javelin ak74 from a guy on here and rippin out all of that blowback crap.Twitch wrote:MSG Ridgeway wrote: but anyways i would like some opinions on what i should get. i like the new echo 1 red star guns, im an echo 1 fanboy. any other brands i should be aware of?
