Product Information:
A&k Masada Magpul PTS
I had many cons due to it being a project gun opening the internals straight out of the box. Honestly I just threw in a cheap 20$ tight bore barrel 6.03, CNC metal hop up, stock spring waiting until i can switch out later for a 140, SHS gears, SHS high torque motor, SHS cylinder, SHS piston and piston head, Matrix shimms, AOE fixed piston with 2 teeth shaved off leaving the last, changed metal hop up pieces with shapeways 3D printed parts since the plastic hop up parts doesnt come with the metal hop up, dean connector, 7.3v lipo with deans connection. Now, it was fine out of the box but being a project gun I wanted to make the masada to shine since its my favorite rifle and tried to step up on distance. Before the overhaul upgrades it shot 350-380 with .20s I then measured about 370fps as average. and 350 fps with .25 Now the distance was alright... having grouping of an inch for 100ft indoor and 2-3inch grouping outdoor on a windy day. Now with the upgrades i was able to amp up the trigger response and get range of 150ft with an inch grouping on a windy day I was able to reach 200ft targets on a big field with the metal hop up using a regular TM hop up and bucking of course using .25, my fps with .20 was hitting 410fps and .25 at 390 fps. I pretty much out ranged some players with great hop up settings. Great thing too is you can buy the outer barrel and another hop up so you can do quick barrel swaps for CQB and long range fields. This gun will surpass mid field range making it my favorite when getting around 70ft of targets.
This gun will give you problems but the tech for this gun is really easy to follow up on youtube. Just prepare to leave your wallet open as this gun can suck money for magpul accessories and moe rails. Also careful with the moe rails as batteries will not fit when you have quad rails screwed all around. Overall best gun i've worked on so far it was well worth it as stock, but if your greedy like me and quickly upgrade then prepare for some serious work because at the end of it your gonna love this gun!
Suggestion:
Hop up
Tight bore barrel or Miracle Barrel
SHS high torque motor (trust me the stock motor will sound horrid)
Pros:
-Great Rifle out of the box
-Accepts M4 Mags
-Shot at 370FPS with .20
-Great project gun
-Easy dis-assembly
-has some weight to it
-EASY BARREL CHANGE EVER
Cons:
-Outer Barrel has small tiny screws that hold the inner barrel and hop up unit (it will break)
-Selector switch is bipolar when taking off and on
-Mag release pin that holds it together will come out and if you lose it make sure you have nails and metal cutters to custom a new pin
-NO sling mount (sold sep.) 35$+ for a metal and 2 screws
-Stock can break easily do not sling there or hold from the end of the stock (weak springs)
-hop up unit is plastic and needs to be changed with CNC metal one (change it first plastic started to break after 4000 rounds)
-hop up slider is flimsy prepare to buy extra hop up for the pieces
