Indeed. Even in HK, the STAR was ridiculously expensive, get the local players swore by the G&G. I think I'll get one when I go back, to be honest.
It's a fantastic deal, even with a complete overhaul of the mechbox (even one that completely doubles its price) it's still $200- and if you had the permits, you could bring one into the country for not too much more (known from experience, the profit you could make is ludicrous). They're fantastic guns, and they feel far better then anything else I've ever used- coming from a guy that played with a full-metal M60 and a VFC BAR.
If I had the choice between the 3 L85s, I'd definitely go that route. ARMY all the way, I suppose.
