Which SCAR-L to buy??

    I'm looking at getting a new SCAR-L CQC but I'm undecided as to which one to get.
    I've thought about G&G but their motors aren't the best and I've heard that other brands mags don't fit in them.
    VFC is another option but are quite pricey.
    Anyone have any experience with either of them or have any other recommendations?
    Thanks!

    I have no personal experience with them but the WE aeg's look pretty good. They are V2 gearbox compatable and. Have a spring detention function when you set to safe. They are also compatable with TM style M4 mags the only problem I see with them is the hop unit unlike other brands they did not use an M4 type but one that's akin to a g36 type that is plastic. Not sure if it's exactly the same as the G36 hop but have read that it's similar in size and shape also at around the €300 mark it's priced competitively in comparison to the G&G and the VFC
    Btw VFC's aren't just pricey their also rare as hens teeth lol

    Thanks, anyone know about mag compatibility with G&G SCARs?

    Have a VFC Scar-L (in black). Lovely beastie and it's seen more than a few years of use & abuse and still going strong.

    What are the internals like in it? I've read in a few reviews that they aren't great.

    Yeah if you can afford it just get the VFC their internals are top notch

    Well put this way ... I've yet to have the gearbox out in over ..... six years or more? I've had the occasional lock-up, but that's a V2 gearbox thing in general.

    Only now am I having a rear-wiring issue. But tbh, it's overdue some rewiring and deans'ing anyway. I've got a mosfet earmarked for the gun and it's long past time for fitting.

    Complaints about the gun? Never had one.

    Thanks, I'll definitely consider the VFC.
