What I believe is that the cheaper brands sell more because they are cheaper. Not everyone is willing to dish out 500 + for a stock aeg. Especially if they are first time buyers and don't even know if they will like the sport.

As for my own personal experience. I don't mind buying a cheaper brand like cyma or whatever. To me I am just paying for the exterior body quality. And sometimes a cyma ak's metal body is good enough. Most of the internals in an aeg can be upgraded pretty cheaply regardless. To me the sport is more about having fun. And a 250 dollar cyma with 50 dollar upgrades can last just as long as any of the higher end guns.

Could you imagine if the world's best car engine could fit into any junky car and was cheaper than any car itself? Everyone would own this engine and drive shitty cars. Or at least that's my theory.
