FirePower FP8 or JG G36c

Hi, I was going to get the FirePower FP8 but then I heard of the JG G36c and I was stuck on wich one to get. I would be using it for PRIVATE backyard play. I have no idea what to do to the gearbox so I dont want one that I'd have to work on the gearbox. Which gun should I get? If you have a suggestion for a different gun thats good for backyard use, please tell me.

So I'm thinking go with G36c Echo ver3 with metal bushing. It is great out of the box.

firepowers have a reputation of being utter crap.

JG seems like the choice, but even then it might require work on the gearbox eventually.

Read the FAQs, get age-verified, and there will be plenty of JG g36s waiting for you (i think theres at least one in the classifieds right now). Try to get into the community and please play on a sanctioned field. hes not joking up there.

I made the mistake of getting a Firepower M4 last year. I fired it about 4-5 times in semi to adjust the hopup... Then switched to auto and let out a burst. I got about 5 rounds out before the gearbox made a horrible grinding sound and the gun died. I was told by many that I was lucky to even have it fire that many rounds before it died...

i wouldnt go with either, the reason i say that is because i have seen nothing but junk come from them and even JG, we had a JG catch fire once so im going to stay away from clones but if i had to choose id go for the JG out of the two.
