Which gun would you choose for a beginner? Here is some background on me.

I used to play airsoft with my AR-15, I like the handling and looks. I usually have a tactical red dot scope with laser.

I am interested in doing milspec scenarios with doing grenades. My position usually is fire team leader or first rifleman when we are doing over 50 persons at a time, otherwise I am doing support roles and occasion snipering.

I want decent customization with reliability at a reasonable price (about $250 to start), I want to keep away from plastic since I am hard on equipment (winter fights), but keep it light. I do like to make sure I can upgrade with egrip or switch release. I would like also the ability to use a cyclone feed or something similar.

The three guns I been looking at are Carver one, Project Salvo, and A-5. If there are any others that might fit me, please make the suggestion.

You sound like you know what you want, compare them and pick one. All good markers.
