We haven't reviewed any APS unit so far, though we have the APS UAR review coming soon. We do admit that APS products are some of the nice-looking, sleek airsoft guns in the market today, but we've been hearing pretty much the same issues in terms of performance and QC from people online and offline. Gregory Wong or Spartan1117GW finds the same issues as he reviews the APS ASR 111 Guardian AEG.
