if you're only getting 460 in an aeg and 488fps with a p*, you're not trying hard enough:

back on topic:
g&p guns are fantastic. they do need work out of the box, but for tinkerers it doesn't really matter because we (I) can fix a gearbox, but I don't have the facilities to make my own receivers.

maybe only $100 of parts (gears, piston, mosfet, sorbo pad), a little effort put into learning (reshimming via bevel method), and your shiny (or matte) new g&p will last longer than most people are interested in running around with a bunch of other fat dudes in a field.

you need to look at my post again the 480+FPS with the polarstar is with a .66 BB bastard not a .20 or .25 The AEG is accomplished with a PDI 360% spring (= to a M170+) not a M120 and you do realise that a .12 bb isn't going to travel as far as you think it will especially with a high power setup and I would like to see that gamed regularly over a season but with a .20 or .25 not a .12
