For me....

The Range thing.. is not the issue...

the fact that when taken to hand it feels like it should is what drives me... every AEG I have taken to hand till now ( except for my STAR L85s and the VFC AK ) has felt "toyish" the weight, balance and handleing.. just not right...

This is not the case with the PTW.. taken to hand... it "feels" right.. handles properly .... balances properly... it is not just a replica.. it is an effective simulator for the weapon it replicates...

For me... this is more important that outranging opponents..

Most people don't know the difference because they have never handled a real weapon.... For me taking the PTW to hand was like bedding an old girlfriend... its just like you remember...and everything you liked.. and disliked about it.. all came back..

As a training tool... which is another important factor for me... everything else "ok" or "workable" wheras the PTW is as it should be.. virtualy indistinguishable from the real thing.
