Since it was first announced, i was intrigued by the MEG and really excited to see what it will be.
top or flop? now after quite a while it has been out there, i feel like there is a lot of fluffing of that gun going on, besides the really annoying flaw of a scraping bolt handle on a mechanically crappy designed part of the 1000+$/€ gun. ( as discussed in other threads.)

i have had it in virtual shopping baskets many times, including molds/sizers for ammo, but in total i just seems to be too expensive. and thinking that one might also want to have a working moderator for non-alarming target practice and set-up, it just gets too much (for me at least).

i wonder if people think it is worth it?
and i also wonder if it is realistic, that in the future the concept will be improved or will AEA, just blast out completely new designs?
(just saw that there is some kind of smaller sibling in the works.)
