I would say go for it based on my Glock experience, but two of my mates have a WE M&P and they've both broken in less than 3 months.

The lugs in the outerbarrel that the hop unit sits in have snapped. I forget what effect it had on the pistols, but it happened to both of them and needless to say they don't work anymore.

Additionally, when my Glock's barrel exploded, being a Glock it was easy to find a replacement. With M&Ps, not so much.

Why...

...Why'd you want one? Your initials? Lol.

Don't lie.

Haha never though of that, thought that in itself is a good reason to get one. I spent a day at a range, a lot of which I used an M&P, just seemed the perfect pistol to me, nice and comfy etc and the ambi slide release is cool. Looks likes I'll have to have a look into what ra-tech make for them, the main reason for wanting a tm was for the guaranteed aftermarket bits, these days its the only real reason to get one.

WE G18C all the way! Just picked one up from the local site and @ £100 you cannae go wrong, its immense. Getting around 3 mag fulls of BB's per fill and the full auto is insane. Yet to try at a game day though as only bought today.

I always treat WE too harshly,their glocks are bloody amazing guns. They just need to use less cheaper metals in their guns and they'll be up there with TM and KWA.

Yeah I agree, if they'd just up the quality of their metal parts they'd easily be on par. My Glock already outshoots a mate's KWA P226 by miles.

Will have to see how my fresh out the box G18C fares against your G17 tinkered with next time your down ed.

WE have needed higher quality metals since the beginning of time :P But their QC has improved somewhat making them now worthwhile- I'd still not buy their hicapas, 1911's or any other early stuff but the new stuff is much better. The big problem is that after market manufacturers dont like making parts for much other than TM, which is a shame.

Oh ffs. Typical Ra-tech do a CNC barrel but only for the compact :/
