In this episode of Evike.com's "The Gun Corner", Matt goes back to the A&K GR-300 Full Metal AEG which is based on the Z-M LR-300 Assault Rifle. Not exactly a new AEG from A&K as this was first released way back 2008, as far as we can recall. It has a full metal receiver, a side folding stock, and a 20mm flat top rail receiver.
Not exactly a new product as this has been in the market for years now, is this A&K LR-300/M300 AEG which is in stock at Airsoft Atlanta. Based on the YZH LR-300 rifle sans markings, this comes with a 450 round high capacity magazine. With a full metal gearbox the magazine is Tokyo Marui compatible hence you can use Marui-compatible M4/M16 magazines for this AEG which fires at 350fps on 0.2g BBs. Here's Solid Snake doing a review of this AEG:

Considered to be one of the best made airsoft guns by G&G, the long version is again available at RedWolf Airsoft... "The real steel LR 300 is an assault rifle and conversion kit based on the AR-15 platform and is broadly similar to M16. The weapon is touted as an 'excellent entry weapon system' indicating a suitability for military use in close quarters battle due to its folding stock yet powerful selective fire weapon in 5.56.
A&K has released their own version of the LR-300 which is based on the the Z-M LR-300. There are already LR-300 replicas in the market made by G&G and Prime. Well, just another AR-15/M16 variant in the market again, so we don't know if you're excited about this news. We assume that this will be an all metal one as A&K has been releasing all-metal AEGs for the past months.
