Product Information:
I must say that I was really skeptical about this weapon because of the price but I will tell you that I have played with all kinds of weapons. Ive played with el cheapo airsoft guns and Ive played with some really expensive guns. For the price this gun falls in what I call the average category. What makes this gun spectacular though, is the price point. Lets start with the outside of this weapon. Its made from a dense polymer so it does have some heft to it so dont think this weapon is light. Then we have the pistol grip, it fits my hand like it was made that way so its a great pistol grip. Then we have the forearm grip, this is really cool as this is where the battery goes, as the small rail that is before the grip is actually the latch to hold the battery compartment closed. While Im talking about the battery compartment, it will take a good sized battery like an AR style battery for a full stock version or you can fit smaller batteries in it. I also found a site that actually makes a custom battery for this weapon so the possibilities are endless on how you want to power this thing. Last is the magazine, you get one high cap magazine with the grip on it but AR Mags will work just fine. In fact with a little ingenuity Im sure that anyone could make a magazine close to this one. It also come with flip up style Iron Sights but has picatinny style rails on the top and the sides for mounting optics or accessories such as tactical lights, lasers or sling swivel attachment points. There is what seems to be a quick detach sling swivel hole to the rear of the pistol grip but I tried to use one of mine in it and I have to pop it out with a screwdriver so I dont know it those are actually QD attach points. Ive shot it to test it to make sure it works and chronoed the weapon with .20g bbs at 375fps average. So its well under the 400fps mark. I am still in awe at this weapon as the price is just unbelievable for a rifle with the look this thing has. One other thing I forgot to mention is the barrel and flash hider. Its actually a threaded shroud that fits over an inner barrel. You can remove the flash hider by way of a set screw but I did not mess with mine to see if it is actually threaded or just a slip on hider like what they have on springers. I give this weapon a 4 out of 5 stars for the simple fact that they dont give any information on what type or style battery to get. Its one of those that you have to buy the gun and be surprised at what you have to get kind of deals. Happy Airsofting and remember to Check your Fire!!!!

Pros:
PRICE POINT!!!!
Sleek Design
Nice Iron Sights
Large Battery Compartment

Cons:
NO BATTERY INFORMATION
Slide on Flash Hider
If this gun were a real steel weapon, how do you cock it as there is no charging handle or operating slide
