DBoy PDW vs Galaxy MP5 PWD
 

Which is the best deal for a first gun?
And in case I'm missing something, is there a better alternative to either?

"is there a better alternative to either?"

VFC PDW, Nothing but good things to say about this gun, but from what I hear you should stay away from the Dboys clone.

Bravo one is rock solid too. Dboys and galaxy are both pretty low end.

Galaxy IS A POS, don't buy it it will break on u faster than the Dboys will and its all plastic also, at least the dboys u can buy a new V2 gearbox and whatnot. but imo just save up to buy something better

Owner of a Dboys PDW, great value, but the only problem with it is the barrel pointing a bit downward, rendering the iron sights, or other sight aids almost impossible to zero.

If you are not a DIY person then the VFC would be great. (maybe a 2nd hand one)

Galaxy mp5 PDW is indeed a POS. Plus the MP5 mags inherent problems... I would skip it.

Bravo and Dboys are the same gun, Bravo just rebrands Dboys.
