As a forum FNG newbe just an average free born American that found the AEA lineup interesting. I purchased one of their first 25 cal HP semi auto carbines and after shooting it a bit, Converted it into a backpacker early or later assassin, the name depends on vendor mods or tagging. Would I purchase this AEA again, yes I would Jack.
Pro: Chinese gun has a lot of bang for it's price point, very compact, lite, accurate and it's semi auto friend, overall generally very pleased they are easy to work on or upgrade.
Neg: Semi auto their max fill pressure is 3400 psi but being unregulated the pressure must be between 1400 to 2500 to operate correctly above this it's a single shot.
Currently there is no power adjustment and it has a simple trigger no adjustment but it is pretty good as is.
Early supply delays for both guns or any spare parts, could be that over blown Chinese flu, anyway it seems to be getting up to speed.
