You definitely get what you pay for man...While the Phantom/Pantac CIRAS is decent for a replica, it is nowhere near the quality of Eagle. You can see the different just by the materials that they use. Ask anyone who uses real steel gear...theyll probably tell you that that the Cordura used in Phantom gear seems to be 700Denier which is used alot less. That alone is an indicator of the difference in quality. BUT for 1/3 - 1/4 the price...you really cant go wrong when it comes to airsoft. Everyone wishes they could afford and use real steel gear but the fact of the matter is that replicas are sufficient for what they are being used for and dont break the bank like the real stuff.
