General Comments

I had this gun for half a year. At first it did not work at all due to constant gas leak. Had it sent back and leak fixed. After this the gun worked but I was not overly happy with it. The complex mechanism for firing means that the trigger pull is very heavy and slow to return, and the magazine jams twice for every 28 load (Making the 28 round mag much less of a bonus than it sounds. The gun has many plastic parts, but is made of a good quality resin type plastic, and will strip down just like the real thing for cleaning etc. Note: I recommend not to go any further in de-assembling this gun than taking the top slide off, as parts fly everywhere and it is a real pain to get back together.
After half a year of light use something broke in the trigger (which is under great strain from the ridiculous trigger). I decided not to reinvest in having this gun repaired and sold it on for a fraction of what I brought it for.
Replaced it with a Smith and Wesson 586 and, to be honest, am not sure why I didn't just get that gun in the first place.
Annics A3000 is all gimmicks and no real substance
