Though if someone doesn't specify exactly what the deal is for via pm, they are almost asking to be blindsided.

I'd like to see this (I know, I carry a lot of weight around here), just because it's annoying to have/find a sale but have the title not match what is now for sale.
Hopefully it would also cut down on someone having to start a billion threads, just change the title when it's something new.

Accuracy:
Not that great, I’ve heard that’s due to a mediocre (at best) bucking as well as a terrible stock barrel, I’d recommend replacing both.
Hopup: Adjusts the same way as a TM, again, I reccomend a new bucking (from what I've heard, I checked the bucking and it was free of tears, etc.)
Accuracy tests:
*Note: due to the cold I didn't take the time to adjust my sites, so after a shot hit the target, I just kept the gun as steady as I could and continued shooting*
25 ft. semi 10 shots
50 ft semi 10 shots (not all hit)
50 ft auto 30-35 ish shots (not all hit)
PMC:
340< FPS <385

*Note: It was very cold during these tests, about 0 degree Fahrenheit, this could have effected metallic properties.*
In one side...
Out the other...
If you can see (click and it's easy to see on the expanded photo), there is a hairline fracture caused by the bb, so just barely not enough penetrating power.
PROS:
Cheap for what you get
Overall quite solid
Problems are rather inexpensive to fix (bucking, barrel, and shims can be had for less than $60)
Cons:
Battery space is a bit tight, and takes a while to get it in there
Barrel
Shimming/noise from GB
Hopup bucking
Barrel wobble (though that may require a metal body)
Stock battery is mediocre at best
(happened to both)
Though I assume I overtightened them at one point
Overall: 7.5
Accuracy: 5
Feel: 7
Durability : 7
FPS: 8
Looks: 9
Price: 9
Conclusion:
If you want a good gun for the price, this is an attractive way to go. I use my ICS, and admittedly, like it better, but it also cost me three times as much cash. So if you’re on a budget, or just want a backup gun, this is a great deal.

AIM M4A1
RS History: The M4 Carbine is a family of firearms tracing its lineage back to earlier carbine versions of the M16, all based on the original AR-15 made by ArmaLite. It is a shorter and lighter version of the M16A2 assault rifle. The M4 and variants fire 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition and are gas-operated, air-cooled, magazine-fed, selective fire firearms with a 4-position telescoping stock.
- Courtesy Wikipedia
Reason for purchasing:
I was looking for a backup weapon. I've had problems with an AIM before, but that was nearly a year ago and as this gun was a "display gun", I was fairly certain it was in good working order. I found the gun on ebay for $90 shipped, so I decided to buy it before someone else snapped it up. I bought it from BlazingToys on ebay, they shipped quickly and it was a pleasant experience.
Box appearance:
The box as packed within another box. Nothing too incredibly fancy, but it did it job and the gun was received in working order.
Appearance of the gun:
It looked good. None of that cheapo lpeg material here. Some of the plastic was on the light side but unless you are looking up close it looks very similar to an actual firearm.
How it Feels:
While I wouldn’t go tree smacking with the thing, it feels solid. The barrel does wobble a little, but that happens on any non-metal bodied armalite as I’ve come to understand it. The 4-position stock is as solid as I could ask for.
Metal Parts:
Fire selector switch
Mag catch
Delta Ring and covering
Sling mount (front)
Ejection port cover
Carry handle mounts
Sighting equiptment
Charging handle
hicap mag
Internals:
It’s loud (compared to my ICS AK74), and it shoot quite slowly (>10 rps). The sound persists even with the motor being at the proper height, I assume it’s a combination of poor shimming and perhaps a lack of grease.
Motor:
It does its job. I currently have an ICS2000 in my AIM, and plan to put the AIM motor in my UTG.
Note: The tape, etc. were done by myself for marking and keeping the motor plate with the motor.
Magazine:
The mag that was included holds about 300 rounds, it feeds well, I have yet to have any problems except when I forget to wind it enough. It can go a good portion of a mag without anymore winding, but I like to keep it nice and wound in case I need some firepower.

What was that trying to say?
As not to spam...

nice video...but why do it on your front porch? seems as though there's a chance to break something nice and expensive.

On the testing, I'd put money they simply didn't do it. Let's be honest, who would send out a rifle that doesn't work if they know it'll just end up being returned?

Over at ASR they made an AEGII forum, for non high end guns, and IMO, it hasn't really helped considering the work involved in doing it for the mods.
All the stupid posts go in the main forum anyways because the new people don't bother with looking. And it just splits the info for those who try to find it. Plus it creates arguments over what X brand should be.
My 2 cents.

I was just noticing that the subforum titles don't have (UK) or (US) on them. I realize also that at the moment there is no US which is done in that way, but if it becomes that way (which I hope it does), then it would be helpful for browsing if you just "view new posts", as I do. It's a small thing, but I think it'd be worth it.
-
I read them..and all that jazz. It's just been worse than ever lately and I even took these 2 beautiful screenshots...lemme go back to my photobucket...
It's better now though..but like 30 mins ago...not so much.

unless your using foam etc which is deformable. then density does play a slight part due to the internal make up of the material (lots of gaps)
pentration in shells comes partialy from the imparted energy and also from the design of the projectile.
also most cannon shells use the impact to melt the armour and crate shrapnel inside the vehicle.
and noone using depleted uranuim armour. its to expesnive and slightly radioactive so is a bad thing to be inside. they use either rolled arour plate using stell and a blend of high stength alloys or reactive armour which deflects oaprt of the energy of the charges.
...doesn't the US use DE armour (and as a mainstay as far as rounds go) on it's abrams?

I had this same problem using firefox on ASR. An ad for like speedytoys was someone here's avatar with brick from anchorman...a stretched image too.
Anyways...whats the website that's blcoked out...?
-
Infact it'll have less energy on impact...

I took an old capgun revolver, and either cut off or dremeled out the cap (can't remember). You have to drill out in front of where tha caps go off too, or else the bb's won't be propelled. After doing that, I thought it'd be awesome, but sadly, it shot maybe 5 feet before hitting the ground. Needless to say I was less than happy with my efforts. Deffintaly not worth the effort. If I can find it I'll post pics, but I'm pretty sure I threw it away.

Wouldn't it have been waaaayyyy easier to do the teflon before you put everything together? And PMC it before teflon since it's like that anyways.

Nice review...other than the speedloader, what improvements have been made over v.1?

Cool looking fish, but I prefer sushi.
