I did a search and can't turn up in the way of direct info.

I have a G&G SCAR-L which is now in possession of my younger brother as his pew-pew machine. I put the thing through the wringer, and I was not the first owner either. Built like a brick poop house it has held up well, only upgrade being an extended tight bore barrel. In using 11.1 lipos the only thing to go in over a year in my game time was the trigger reset spring; contacts still look great, everything else seems good, and the range-accuracy is amazing, especially in the cold with that green G&G rubber. Gets a solid 200 feet of effective range on that setup alone. All in all, the G&G internal and external quality is fantastic.

All of this aside, G&G is not compatible with certain external upgrades such as the Madbull PWS SRX. With the build I would like to do this is a problem.

Now, I have never seen a direct comparison of the VFC and G&G models. I know my personal experience with the G&G, but have no experience with the VFC.

Now I know VFC all round are good quality guns with great bodies and decent internals to work with.

I have also heard some negative things about their SCAR-L models such as their hop-up units being pretty dicey and not the best design, which concerns me as I don't want to sacrifice performance for look and feel.

What I am looking for here is feedback from owners of both VFC and G&G SCARs. Not just the normal rhetoric of "Oh mine shoots great man, its a good gun". I'm looking for technical specifics pertaining to hop up, stock and upgraded. I'm also looking for info pertaining to gear strength/quality, wiring and circuitry quality (as the G&G seems pretty much 11.1 LiPo ready out of the box), and any other technical remarks internally or externally.

Appreciate the feedback; it will help steer my build in the right direction.
