I know the limitations for them in cold weather, but for normal, summer outdoor play, are they worth owning at this point? Is the cost in maintenance/spare parts worth it to those of you who do use them?
I have Sold off all but 2 of my AEGs and I own now 7 GBBRs Everything that WE makes except the M14

They are my Primary guns, and I know of about 10 people who run GBBR as primary guns. It is not uncommon at TTAC3 for all the guns in use to be GBBRs, and at FTF this past season we had several games where more than half the guns on the field were GBBRs

My primary criteria for a gun.. "It shoots every time I pull the trigger"

and I have not been let down, I have run them Day, Night and in all weather without failure. Any and all stoppages I have had were either remedied within 2 minutes in the field ( under fire ) or were sorted out within 10 minutes after a withdraw from contact.

My general satisfaction with the game experience has magnified 10 fold with the advent of the GBBR
