hey guys, I know its store bought and not custom but check out my new toy!

It's a FN2000 my GF got me for an early birthday present.

here are some stats:
9.6V Battery
360 Hicap mag
FPS:360
ROF:~800-1000 RPM
Gearbox Hybrid V2 (V2 with V6 parts) (best of both worlds)
Accuracy: Awesome
Noise Factor: Very Stealthy
Overall: Preforms like a CA or TM at the price of $139

It is going to get a blue metallic torn tiger ghost camo paint job and I'm going to be making a Pneumatic Burst disk grenade launcher for it, as well as other attachments such as a mini inline vortex and other fun stuff... but until then enjoy some pictures of it being stock!

So I'll keep you posted with all the custom things I will do to it!

The brand name is JLS.. they are a new company that everyone thinks is a clone company but they are not... they were the first ones to make the SCAR and also the first and only ones to make the FN2000.

The scar they made was complete craptastic all around... that made me a little hesitant but every new company has a rough start...(CA and TM and even G&G all had rough starts)

So I read and watched a bunch of reviews and talked with people that had this gun and they all agree that it is an awesome gun and they all agree the SCAR was the worst gun they have ever seen..

Echo1 and JG are actually owned by the same person and JG is pretty much a Echo1 except it doesnt come with as good of a warranty and they dont double check the gun. Echo1 is decent, but they are a clone and with that they are always prone to the same problems of cheaper parts and less warranty.


If you want to find more reviews just watch flanker tanker's review on youtube as well as written reviews..

Another thing I like about JLS as a company.. A lot of companies advertise their Gun's FPS higher than what it typically is, while JLS does the average of what their gun's FPS is... I have found most reviews actually putting this gun around 365FPS instead of the 350FPS advertised.

WOW that paintjub really improved it, looks much less "super soaker" like. Also didnt you mention mounting one of you burst disk launchers to this?

yes... im actually working on the launcher as we speak... its not an immediate rush though considering I already have a 3 barrel grenade launcher.
