Well I'm pretty close to retiring from this hobby, over the years I've gone through a shitload of AEG/GBB/GBBR so far if you want to compare companies that still make them flawless I would have to say Tokyo Marui, King Arms, G&P and Classic army (in that order) but if you have some extra funds I would have to strongly suggest you dive into the PTW starting with either a FCC, DTT modded PTW or a fully Modified Tac PTW then your view towards AEGs will forever changed.

Essentially unless you are comparing a PTW all AEGs are the same they are based on Marui planetary gearbox set up. Granted that there are a few company that comes out with proprietory parts that mimicks a PTW set up ie. WE KATANA, ICS, DTW but they are not the same when compared to a PTW. PTW with it's high price tag do have it's own demons same as owning a AEGs so in the end it's a toy it will break no matter how good teh company is, hell I'm waiting for my FCC to go down but that damn thing keeps on ticking, and I still have my HK51 from Tokyo Marui since 91 and it's in perfect working condition, What I'm trying to say is no matter what the company is it's a toy, it will break the only thing you should be concern is how fast? and all that depend on how you use it and how you take care of it
