TFL Review Summary

There is a lot to like about the G2. Its gas system shot well, and it felt good in the hands, but the controls were tough to operate. The G2 is a budget gun and a pretty decent budget gun at that. For us, we'd rather get something that is a little more user friendly with the controls.
