The TM AKS74U, while compact, can go head to head with many longer AEGs out there in the field, and outperform many of them. It has great rate of fire, consistent feeding, durable, and has a great range. But the most immediate effect is not the performance of the AEG itself, it is the playing intensity that one can have with this due to the feedback from the recoil and blowback mechanisms. I can say this, because I felt it. I am a laid-back player, and take it easy while playing.
RS was able to fulfil its dream design for the Type 56. All materials and manufacturing techniques are very faithful to its real steel counterpart including the front sight, bayonet handle, hand-guard, rear sight and gun body. Its outer appearance, size, scale and the combination of most parts, according to RS, are identical to the real steel. In order to achieve this 100% original size configuration, RS had to develop a new gearbox to fit on the very limited space of the real steel dimensions.
LCT Airsoft finally produced a replica of my favorite weapon. I only say favorite because the AMD-65 was the first weapon I’ve seen as a kid so its image burned into my memory forever. It was long gone by the time I enrolled the Hungarian Army and I had to use the “boring” AK63. Today it is only used by special police and military units. I call it successor because originally this weapon was brought to life for the paratroopers, vehicle operators and officers but law enforcement agencies and almost the entire army also used it.
The rifle felt well and solid in the skirmish field, although I was very careful not to scratch the wood works. Firing is comfortable both from the shoulder and from the hip. One thing I noticed is that the weight of the rifle is quite heavy so it is very important is choosing the right accessories to minimize additional weight. I would recommend using a small battery and a high cap magazine instead of a drum or electric hi-cap magazine. I would also advice getting a sling.
This is a long-overdue review of the Force Recon Vest with Pouch Set Maritime Version—Flyye’s replica of Eagle Industries’ Maritime CIRAS. The difference between the “Land” and “Maritime” versions are how it’s secured on the body, the Maritime version comes with internal cummerbund, which overlaps across the stomach with Velcro. The two outer flaps attaches to the front “wing” of the vest (also with Velcro).
GFC has something great to offer here. All they have to do, after they start including a better charger and not an 8.4V 300mAh one, is to maintain strict quality control parameters to earn the trust of players like you and me. The last velocity reading I recorder was close to 430fps using 0.2g Blaster BBs—even higher than before (out-ofthe- box). The MOSFET is an added bonus, since integrating FETs within this price range is near impossible, as installing these switches cost money.
The King Arms Galil, to the uninitiated with the real steel Galil, may look somewhat flimsy with the gas tube cum battery holder, but that’s how it really works. We give high marks to the way King Arms replicated the Galil, down to some of the exacting details in the externals and handguard area. It’s sturdy, no creaks and wobbles, just watch out for the screw of the fire-selector switch on the right as it may have a tendency to get loose after constant fire selections, screw it back in with your fingers while in the field, no tools necessary.
