Not a big fan for the price you pay for it.
With the E&L AK-74 Gen 2 (price point: 250-300 USD), the big issues are
1) misaligned nozzle head + air nozzle issue
2) Hop-rubber
... and that's it. Other it's pretty much good to go with good externals (albeit rust easy).
With the LCT AK-12/RPK-16 (price point: 350-400USD) :
- leaky air nozzle
- full steel teeth piston (not the biggest fan of this because I can't easily file off half of the last tooth easily)
- more disassembly required to get to the mechbox.
- Over-spec'd gears that make shimming difficult. The gears are literally stuck in the bearings and you will need a pin pinch to smack them out, and lots of force to smack them in. Replaced mine in a hurry because otherwise shimming is next to impossible.

How's the RPK after a couple of months? I'm looking into getting one, but this doesn't inspire confidence. Money is tight right now since I switched my workplace and ordered a thesis from
prothesiswriter.com. Thesis was top-notch in terms of quality, but I gotta be confident that my next airsoft buy is a good one.
