What's your favorite P90 and why

Amos · February 18th, 2010, 21:20

TM.

Echo 1 and CA Sportline are both very low quality compared to the TM.

Meh, the body of the TM is assembled better.. but the Echo1 one, considering it's about 50% of the cost of the TM and works just as well... with a metal upper... hard to beat.

I believe the Echo-1 is a re-brand of a KS.

I know a guy who has one. Felt okay, nothing amazing, but solid for sure.

That's barely metal.

If you remove the paint it looks like chip board... Mmmm filler.

The TM is an amazing machine... the Version 6 gearbox is one of my favorites...

I managed to build a P90 that shot with an FPS deviation of less than 1... and the only upgrade part was the piston head and spring.

Really liking the Echo1 P90 and very solid.

yes, you do know a guy that owns one haha... ya, because ECHO 1 and my KS are exactly the same gun... I vote for ECHO 1. Hard hitting, full metal upper receiver, full trades, and great quality lower receiver for ALOT cheaper than TM.... there's NO competition!

Tm is too creaky. CA is very poor quality. Echo 1 is best once you factor in prices.

Amos · February 18th, 2010, 23:49

... I've handled all 3... and the build quality on the Echo 1 has been awful..

I've never seen a TM that was creaky...

I've handled 2 TMs and one echo 1 and I gotta disagree with you, you may have handled a lemon echo 1 however...

maybe you just saw a fluke. Mine has no creaks anywhere... to me.. the TM's body is too smooth/ not textured right (or atleast the one I saw) and the colour was off too... grey instead of black... didn't look right,...

IMO TM makes the best plastic on the market, and plastic is one of classic army's weaknesses.

Had my E90 for a year and a half. Other than the cutoff lever wearing out quick leaving it full auto only, and the shit battery that won't hold a charge. I didn't expect that cheap battery to last long anyway, so to me, that's not an issue. It's seen a few games, winter and summer. It's been bumped dropped, and shot a lot, and works great. Had no creaks either.

I compared it side by side with 2 stock TM P90s. In terms of accuracy, I would say at 25-75 feet, their accuracy is comparable. Beyond that, accuracy is about as good as you can expect from any AEG with a short barrel. But the E90 did outrange the TM significantly due to its higher velocity. And in the brush, the E90 has much more penetrating power.

If you want the best there is, go for the TM. If you want a good reliable affordable gun, get the Echo 1.

Haven't seen a CA in person yet, but from what I read about them, they're kind of shitty. Based on that, I wouldn't bother.

EDIT: For reference, mine is the one Angelus refers to that was compared directly with 2 other TM P90s.

TM P90. Shoot well and good range right out of the box. A lot of fun without any worries.

AngelusNex · February 19th, 2010, 08:33

Love how NOBODY says anything good about the CA here.
