The CA and the ARES are both great, a lot of people are going with the ARES these days because of the quick swap spring feature, so you can quickly go from indoor fps to outdoor limits without needing to completely open up the mechbox
and you dont need a spare in the eventuality that your gun is too hot to use at a given game
side note: couldnt agree with you more, lol I HATE aks and all their variants
