I bought the Limited Edition Tan variant of the VFC M27 IAR that was offered around holiday 2013, they are beautiful airsoft guns.
The gun is admittedly front heavy, but with the abundant rail space attaching a vertical grip solves everything.
I know the price point is steep, especially for any new or young players, but the quality speaks for itself, the 6 position stock is beautiful, the trades are very nice, and as mentioned it has lots of rail space so in terms of upgrades you really can make this thing your own.
My own question is with the airsoft depot description, as of March 18th 2014 it lists this as having a FPS of 320, I am assuming that this is false and my M27 chrono's around 400-420, and for the fact that under Canadian Law anything firing under 366 FPS is listed as a replica firearm and prohibited to own. Just something I would check out before you decide to take the plunge.
