Yeah, I'm 100% done with TM. Worthless IMO. Maybe a couple of years back, they were an awesome (albeit overpriced) alternative to the Chinese clones. But now that JG, Echo 1, etc are making such good quality guns, I'd much rather get one of those and spruce it up as I see fit... And it'll end up being a much better performing gun for less than a stock TM. With the base gun as a JG MP5-J, and all the upgrades, I paid about $700 for my gun in total, once I factored in all the extra parts I sold. And that's counting replacing the mechbox shell that cracked after 50k rounds (replaced with a Deepfire reinforced 7mm shell) and a set of Modify modular torque-up gears. And I still have the stock upper receiver and front end left over (no, not for sale in case any non-AV members get any ideas and decide to PM me...)
So starting with a TM or a CA, it would have cost me a lot more to get my gun to its current state than what I did with my gradual upgrades.
