they come with plastic bushings too... but spend an extra 30 bucks and get metal bushings and spring and you'll be set.. and the gun will last twice as long as a echo

TM is Japanese and therefore designed for the Japanese market. Japan has .9J maximum law. Therefore anything coming out of Japan will have a low FPS. They make up for it in craftsmanship, and maximizing range and accuracy with what's available.

I disagree michael. At this point, if this 'chickawaffles' hasn't read threads like this and formed an opinion on TM vs. CA vs. Chinese, then using the search function and reading old threads is moot.
aaaahhhhhhhhhhgh!

fps does not mean quality nor does it = range. Tm and CA are the best two options out there period.
