if you think about this rebranded Classic army sportline beats by far the aftermath - that is roughly the same price. So if you are on a budget - you are still technically winning if you consider only the price/quality ratio (just need a touch of flat black krylon and you are all set). Still I would consider buying a cansoft G&G mp5 over this - they are slightly more expensive but so much better. For a bit more, there is the full metal canadian legal ICS max 5 mp5 for 385$ can that are much better. So, if you are on the tight budget - it is the lesser of 2 evils
