Newbies and stuff like higher numbers because if it's higher "it must mean it's good". Not always true. If you can get 400 FPS and 15 BPS but have absolute shit accuracy after 40 feet (deviates in all directions) then that's how it will be. If you have another gun shooting 350 with .20's and they use .28's to bring it even lower down to 295 FPS with .28's and it shoots a respectable 5 BPS and it's accurate out to 100 feet before it starts deviating wildly then IMO it's better than the first gun.
That being said, if it works it works. You could easily have a PTW that craps out on you all the time or a $150 gun that works all the time and hasn't failed even after 100,000 BB's. You're still just using air to push a BB out of a metal tube and trying to tag other people out it doesn't matter if it's a $2000+ PTW shooting that BB or a straw and a BB (well I think there might be rules against that but it's still a hit even if you hit someone with a $30 clearsoft springer (which I'm sad to say that I have been hit with one once because it was a night game and he took out his springer pistol, got me when I popped out around the corner of the back looking for enemy trying to flank and snuck in through the back of the crack shack to get the other guy defending)).

I understand what you are saying, and I do understand I am a newbie, but I was just saying my first impression of the gun was a lot better than I expected. All I here about it is that it is junk. It probably will not last as long as a TM M1A1, but it will last long enough if taken care of. If I painted it over, I dont think anyone could see the difference between a full metal cybergun and a Clearsoft M1A1.
What color should I paint the "metal areas" of the M1A1? I really need help with that. If someone could assist me in finding the correct color to paint over the plastic, that would be great.
