It's outstanding externally and much better than many guns internally. VFC is another top tier brand, though they tend to be a bit pricier than KA. G&Ps are nice too but they are pricey, the ejection port cover does not close(big deal for me), no working bolt catch, and the externals are prone to rusting from what I've seen. I agree with you 100% that G&G has shit internals and I'd stay away from them. Star/Ares are innovative when it comes to their quick spring change system. Other than that their guns are meh. As for the other brands you listed, when it comes to standard AEGs, I wouldn't waste my time with them.

IF you desire a realistic AEG, TM has a SOPMOD system that offers the most physical recoil in an AEG. It also has a realistic bolt catch system. Downside is that they take proprietary mags and batteries and they cost a arm and a leg.

Systema PTWs offer the most realism in terms of dimensions and the ability to use real steel furniture. Downside is that they cost an arm and 2 legs and both testicles. For that much, you get an AEG that doens't necessarily shoot better than a standard AEG and has a pot metal receiver.
good point somewhere!

my bad for not clarifying something worth discussing.

the price range would be around 500 as most of us can accept. (Systema can be crossed off)also no consideration into upgrades just rate the original performance.Overall I would say TM is overwhelming!
