JG Full Metal Body for M4/M16

verified buyer

Product Information:
Best deal for the quality and price. The body has a nice look and feel as it should and no cosmetic malformations. As the other reviewer said, some cheaper magazines such plastic ones may wiggle while inserted. Problem can easily be solved with one wrap of electrical tape around the top base of the mag. Even then, there may not be complete tightness when the mag is in, even for metal ones. But as far as I can tell it does not cause feeding or shooting issues of any kind. The paint seems good because I have yet to really get any scratches on it except the ones I made while swapping the body out (my fault). Mag release is tight, switch to shooting mode may be slightly tighter. Charging handle on mine seems pretty loose and wiggly when I mess around with it but not enough to where it can fall out.

Pros:
+All as description says.
+Adds minimal/unnoticeable weight.
+Relatively resistant to light impact.

(+/-) Body seems to be a tighter fit.

Cons:
-firmness of mechanisms may vary on body.
-Lower grade mags may wiggle.

(+/-) Body seems to be a tighter fit.

Product Information:
Came in good condition, but my god... Is this a shoddy piece of work. Nothing on this is built to spec.



Pros:
Its metal, which is nice
Its a clean slate, can engrave if you want
..... Idk what else i can say about it beyond that.

Cons:
- Picatinny rail isn't real width
- Low quality mags don't sit at all
- Mid quality mags hardly sit, and never feed
- High quality mags sit alright. Can just be pulled out. Feeds well though
- Mag release doesn't seem to be the right size
- Buffer tube piece is too long, needed to be milled down for my stock to fit properly
- Selector switch seems shoddy too. Feels cheap.

Product Information:
Bought this to rebuild a TM m733, went with a jg body due to price, and the fact they seem to copy TM a bit closer than others. Asgi was even willing to price match for me, so props on the customer service! If putting this on a Marui, or other 2 piece hop-unit gun, be sure to have a 1 piece hop to use with this receiver.

Pros:
Came with body pins, mock bolt release, mag release, and a few other bits I didn't use/need.
Metal
Price
TM grip fit the lower nicely; didn't mess with motor alignment
No trades, so you could paint/stencil/engrave your own stuff there
Mag release spring is stronger/longer than stock spring
Buffer tube fit was fine

Cons:
Had to file the fins on my TM outer barrel to fit the upper; not a big deal. I used some Permatex dielectric grease to help coax them together
Mag release itself is hot garbage. Screw stripped, and the mag release bar was funky; held mags weird. Wound up using the release off the old body.
Holes for pins weren't quite right. With both body pins in, the trigger pin was off, Wound up leaving out trigger pin; probably bend a piece of 14awg solid copper wire in the hole and turn the ends to stay. Trashy, but it'll do.
Lower seemed a bit too wide for the stock marui mechbox. I wound up shimming the side opposite the selector switch with some foam.
Mockbolt from my TM couldn't clear the adjustment gear on my hop unit. Unsure if fault of the upper receiver or my hop unit. Probably could have sanded the wheel/trimmed the bolt, but I'll just run the thing with the ejection port closed.
