Product Information:
For a long time I've looked for a gun that was an M16 but had rails pre-installed, and i finally found it. When I first recieved the gun I did what anyone would do, shoot it. so i put some .25s in the mag and fired up. My out of the box first impressions were average pretty much like i expected the only thing that really caught my attention was how hard it shot. It put out about 380fps with the .25s. But during my battles I do everything from Sniping(my favorite) to putting down cover fire, so I needed better than average so i put in a 9.6v 4200mah battery which totally fit, and boosted the rof bigtime. So i had the power and rof now i just needed range, so for our first time we put in a tight bore and after doing it wrong all hell broke loose. We accidentally pulled out the back pin which didn't even need pulled, and we ended up having to drive it back in with a hammer. After that a plastic washer off a gear jammed the whole thing up. After that was fixed we discovered the hop up no longer worked(major downer for a sniper). So I had to order a new Echo 1 Metal M4/16 hop up from gi. So i got the new hop up and after doing something wrong and trying to fix it this one quit too. Turns out theres a little nub that is the part that gives bbs backspin, now its about a cm long and its rubber. But luckily I found it and got the barrel in the right way by taking the hop up apart first. By the way, to get to the hop up and barrel all you have to do is remove the front pin closest to the barrel. Now that story time is over this is the gun now: Dboy full metal M16A4 RIS, 6" inch long Gemtech Blackside Barrel extension, Guarder styled cross hairs red dot scope, bipod, foregrip, 9.6v 4200mah battery, new hop up, and a JBU 6.03 precision inner barrel M16+ 550mm. Now i love the gun it has very good range and looks freakin awesome. It can hit a torso size target from 30-50+ yards. Overall its an average gun out of the box but with the RIS system its a great platform gun for a support weapon, sniper, or whatever your purpose is.

P.S. this gun is on my myspace profile picture and many people have asked me if its real or airsoft.


Pros:
-looks and feels awesome
-RIS is handy for platform for anything
-battery compartment is freakin huge
-average battery comes with it(8.4v 1500mah)
-all plastic parts are durable and nice ABS, except the PEQ box
-Mag is an average 300 rounds( i suggest a G&G 450rds if you're into high caps)
-full metal except for pistol grip, stock, and flash hider
-heavy duty sling
-shoots hard 380fps with .25s
-average rof, i highly reccomend a 9.6v
-easy disassembly
-14mm counter clockwise threads


Cons:
-plastic flash hider( its ok cause i have a big silencer)
-the RIS can be alil wobly
-Hop up is kinda cheap
-PEQ box sucks
-safety doesn't always work (but who needs it?)
-my dust cover has a hard time staying shut
-that sling is too complicated for me to figure out
