Word of advice, just buy a new Marui and get it upgraded. Also, go with a simple gun like an AK or Spetsnaz AK for reliablity and easy matinence in the beginning.

Sounds like bull to me...

The only reason that i was thinkin about this one was cause i can't afford a new one. with my paycheck i'm just keepin my head above water. But i completely understand why i should buy a new one, cause i've learned that lesson the hard way in the past. Thanks,

dont go for it. as far as i know, marui never made a version without a removeable carry handle.

That sounds good, it sounds like the seller knows what he's talking about, but I would be suspicious of any gun with that many accessories being sold with no reserve and bidding starting at $1.  It just sounds fishy.

Many sellers on Ebay start their auction at $1 with no reserve.  It one way sellers try to attract bidding on their auctions.  Just because the bidding starts at $1 doesn't mean no one else isn't going to bid on it.

My guess is that this AEG is built from a variety of extra/left over parts off of other (broken?) AEGs.

Be careful what you buy, my brother got an APS2 online and the deal was the gun, 2 mags, the sling, the bipod and a scope. The scopes crappy.. the aps2 mag doesn't work (only got one mag) and the slings a purse sling. Yes, you heard me... a leather purse sling. Also, the bipods the kind you put directly on the barrel and it scratches it up. I don't even think it folds.

You should stick to companies and local.

My buddy got an SR-16 off of ebay with plenty of upgrades, both internal and external, for probably half the cost. Thing is, all those upgrades didn't do him any good when he plugged a battery in and nothing happened! I think the Swairtac guys were nice enough to diagnose the problem and help him fix it, though. Point is, you gotta figure out how much your willing to possibly throw out. 95% of the time, I'd say you'll be OK, but there's always that 5% chance that something will happen.
