I've shot dozens of fully upgraded AEG's, 2 R-hopped AEG's, 4 different all fully upgraded bolt action rifles, and 4 different PTWs. You know who people come to when they want an AEG to shoot really far in Winnipeg? Wrath and I. And guess what? We both owned PTWs.
Problems we run into, is people who claim AEG's are better but have never shot nor SEEN a PTW before. And most people with PTWs have never shot fully PROPERLY upgraded AEG's before.
I've got no motive in lying about one being better than the other. Being a gunsmith, I make more money off people having AEG's since they inherently break down more often, so it would be in my best interest to push people to upgrade AEG's. What kind of idiot spends $3000 on a brand new PTW when a $900 AEG works just as well? You think if I knew that AEG's were better, I'd sell my PTW for $2500, buy a PAIR of AEG's, upgrade them to shoot just as well, and have $900 left for whatever. Well I haven't. Why? Because the PTW is just better, and it's consistently better.
You take a group of 10 G&Ps, all high end guns, and fully upgrade all of them, 4 of them will shoot great, 3 of them will shoot okay, and one will just be a straight out demon gun.
Take 10 PTWs, hop mod all of them, they'll all shoot exactly the same.
And for the amount of effort it takes to just send off a hop chamber and barrel to mac to mod the hop for a PTW, you know how much tinkering and testing and adjusting and hours of labor and LUCK it takes to make an AEG perform close to the same?
