MAG AK74 100rd Magazines
MAG AK74 magazines are in my opinion the best 74 midcaps in the market for the price. (So long as you don't get bad ones). I ordered a box of 5 off of evike and ha. 3 out of 5 are useless cause the little lips are too sensetive and blow all the bb's out with the slightest touch basically.
Both sides have seam lines but nothing to be scared about you barely notice them in game play.
Top of the mag. You can not disassemble these mags without destroying them so don't try. The mag holds 100rd's
Bottom butt plate is removeable but reveals nothing but a bit of space. Incase you want to store your drugs or something i guess

Classic Army G3-SG1
The Gun in Real Life
Made by H&K, and designed in the 50s. It fires a 7.62x51mm NATO round. It's still in use today by both NATO and non-NATO countries. The SG1 when translated means "sharpshooting rifle." This means that certain G3s would be converted to use high accuracy barrels and used for sharp shooting. The converted G3s kept the Semi/Full auto features.
http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_inf...oducts_id=1781
Overview
It's a nice, solid, comfortable weapon. It's a little on the long and heavy side. Other than that, it's hard hitting and very accurate combined with a pretty good rate of fire.
Quick features
Mostly Metal
~350 FPS
500 High Capacity Magazine
Bi-Pod included
Cheek Rest
Trademarks w/ #
Uses a large battery type
I love this gun, even though it's a little heavy, Its able to spit rounds downrange, and keep your enemies heads down.(And the bi-pod allows you to take a rest while still keeping them down) Even though I knew before buying this, it was a sharpshooting rifle, I use it as a Assault/Support weapon. I do intend to buy a claw mount at a later date and use it as its suppose to.
Lets go back to front
The Stock
It has a really nice plastic that is very sturdy, with no flex whatsoever. The only problem I have with the stock is the cheek rest, which gets in the way using iron-sights, and has a slight of flex to it. Otherwise the cheek rest is really soft and feels good.
The Main Body
It's metal. It has trademarks. It doesn't flex. The magazine well is interesting because it has the AK type of release along with the M16 style, but to insert the magazine you go front to back. (Some times straight in doesn't go in right.) HKs classic drum sight is included.
The Fore stock
The charging handle is up here, like the rest of HKs weapons, which reveals the Hop-UP. Fore stock also has a nice texture to it but wobbles a little. The bi-pod, on the fore stock, swings left and right, and folds up onto the fore stock.
The Muzzle
Nice small, not so bright orange tip. One downside to this weapon is the entire muzzle and front sight wobble a little bit. I didn't notice much wobble in battle though. When attaching a sling, you will need a type of hook at this end. I stuck a key ring on it, then fed my sling through the key ring.
The Magazine
The one major downside to this great weapon, it's a High-Cap. After about 10 shots, I need to tap the magazine on the bottom. So suppressing fire requires hitting the magazine repeatedly. There is another company making G3 magazines, but I can't find them anymore.
So once again, a great gun. Tad heavy, and find new magazines.
So, I give it 4/5.
Will put pictures up probably within 24 hours.

KWC Desert Eagle GBB Metal slide and outerbarrel version
Bought it from a local retrailer pretty nifty and heavy gun.
Slide and the outerbarrel are made of aluminium, the lower frame is plastic.
Cause of the slide's weight the gun performs best with green gas, i have tried with HFC134a gas but it doesn't have the power to move the slide back properly---> bbs wont feed.
I have never used MARUI's Deagles so i can't compare the feel of the blowback to them, but as my FIRST GBB i can say it's pretty good. FPS is around 280 whit green gas in 16 celsius.
OK time for pics.
The package.
Overall picture of the gun.
The outerbarrel slide's abit back and forth but i dont mind it.
Sight view :P
The gun is ambidextrous(fire selector is on both sides).The funny part is that the fire selector has 3 positions, safe ,semi and the third one is supposed to be auto?! that's what the manual said, seems like KWC was lazy when they took the manual from the CO2 version of the gun that has full auto.
Accuracy of the gun is decent for short range but sometimes i get those wtf i shot jeesus in the foot shots(meaning that the bb goes straight up) even when i have just a little amount of hop up, maybe cus the gun have the factory oil's in the barrel, i dont have silicone atm. so gona update if it helped.
Update: after cleaning the barrel and siliconed it abit no wtf shot's anymore
It can be easily disassembled. Placing the slide back need some practice when doing it the first time.
You get about 2 1/2 mags on 1 fill of green gas.
-
added both. modifyed main post to look better
-
Third feature is probably for the half-cock position.
-
Nope the third position does not affect the weapons functions in any way. Looking inside the gun i can only see that in in the safe position just locks the slide and trigger, but when switched to semi it just goes out of the way, like it does not hit any nobs that would activate something.

Echo 1 AKS-74u
Bought from www.combatsportsupply.com (local small buisness)
The gun is all metal, excluding the handguards and grip.
The gun is 6.5 pounds, nice hefty weight
Hanguards are plastic, the plastic is okay...
The mag is made from cheap plastic, but it feeds well and holds 600 BBs
The trades look good, but they got the caliber markings wrong
The folding stock is made of steel, little wiggle. But wiggle is in almost every folding stock.
THe gun shoots around 383 fps w/ .20
It shoots accuratly up to 100 feet.
Overall-9/10

WE 1911 MEU Edition Review
The WE 1911 MEU is a TM Clone. Im not 100% sure if it works with TM Mags but if it's a clone i don't see why not. I ordered this from ASGI for 110$ and used the chris coupon to get it a bit cheaper but so far i love it.
Intresting box better then regular brown boxes. Has the regular 18+ Only should only handle and chinese writing and english translations.
I removed the orange tip, It was fucking ugly and killed the gun. A simple twist with pliers loosened it enough to just pull it off. This is exactly how the inside of the box is. The gun comes with 2 mags one is already loaded in the gun the other in the mag slot. Good deal for the money since mags are 20$+?
ASGI said it shoots 310, I believe it. Tommorow when its not raining ill go outside and do some tweaking on the hopup otherwise i've just been shooting in my basement.
The two mags that come with the gun are great. Have decent weight to them and each can hold enough gas to fire a mag load and extra maybe even two mags using green gas. Standard loading pull spring down then load bb's through the small hole on the side above the spring slide. Each Mag holds 15 rounds each
When i first picked this gun up it was amazing at the weight weighing around 2.2LB's and over with the Mag in. The gun is full metal besides the grip which has a rubber like feel but also feels like metal at the same time. This gun is the MEU edition so it contains the Marine Corp Emblem on each side of the grip. There's the socom gear edition where it has the Emblem engraved on the slide. Ontop of the slide theres a .45 ACP Engraving.
Down the iron sights. I heard this gun only had the white dot in the front iron sight but it appears they now fixed that. Aiming is quick and easy. I haven't been able to test accuracy since i haven't tweaked the hop-up. This gun does have a kick to it and i love it. Feels nice having to put my iron sights back on target instead of letting go of 500bb's and my gun moved a whole inch the entire time.
This gun also features a 3 hole Skeleton trigger which feels perfect on the finger without gloves. Not sharp feels great.
Marine Corp Emblem
This gun also features a ambidextrous safety just like the real steel MEU 1911. Easy to use on both sides.
Once the safety is off you can pull back the slide which pulls back the hammer. The slide will only lock back if theres a Magazine inside. To fire the hammer must be pulled back and you must hold the beaver tail? down and then pull the trigger for it to fire. Easily done not hard at all. It's really fun and great to hear the metal on metal sound after pulling the slide back and releasing.
Example of slide locked in place since magazine is in hammer pulled back and holding the beaver tail down. You must pull the little peice on the side down so the slide gets released and ready to fire.
To release the magazine you simply push the button and the magazine will fall out. Recommended you have your hand ready to catch it cause it will just drop down to the ground. The magazine release isn't weak nor too strong so mags shouldn't fall out during play but i would keep an eye on it.
FPS Taken by Poor mans chrono using a coke can
One Side: Passed through easily leaving a huge crack in the can
Second Side: Right through make a perfect circle
Bottom: Shot right into it.
FPS: 350-400? Better then the 310 ASGI said..
-----
Overall i love this gun but since is the first day i have owned it i have to put it through more testing ex: Tuning the hop-up if ASGI didn't already. Tommorow some glamor shots will be up since my Iphone loves to take pictures outside and have perfect quality.
Update
This gun preformed great outside in my backyard, It isn't that big but it was accurate around 50 feet.

a short review on the.. KJW M1911 CO2/GAS READY (or is it?)
( http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_inf...oducts_id=2533 )
___________________________
First: an overview.
The gun feels great, its all metal, the grips are solid but a little bit "sharp" not a problem if you're wearing gloves. When you're out of ammo (BBs) the slide locks back. There is a lot of kickback with the CO2 mag in. Speaking of the CO2 magazine, it leaks a little when you're putting in the co2, but if you tighten it a lot it shouldn't be a problem.
Performance:
With .23s this gun shot straight and accurate without hopup adjusted.. until the gas nozzle flew out of the gun. When i was using CO2 in this gun it was so powerful the gas nozzle broke in half and flew out of the gun. Hopefully airsoftGI will help me with this, and this gun has great potential with maybe a metal nozzle.
Conclusion:
DONT USE CO2 IN THIS GUN. I didn't test it with green gas, but i can tell there is definitely a lot of potential here as a sidearm.. just not a CO2 powered sidearm.
(7 out of 10 broken nozzles.)
EDIT/UPDATE: Got it back from AirsoftGI, got some green gas, it was pretty good, had some range on it with .20 grams BB's i was right about the potential, this thing is great as a sidearm, just not a CO2 one.

Maruzen P38
Overview
I bought this gun used off of a guy on Airsoft Retreat for $100, it arrived in the original box in perfect condition. It came with one 12 round magazine and a little bag with a couple allen wrenches in it.
The box
The gun in said box - the magazine was in the gun when it arrived
The Externals
The P38 has a really nice feel and weight to it, the slide is made of heavy plastic and it has some nice recoil when you fire it. The sights are just plain black, no markings or anything, as you'd expect.
The sights; sorry for the dark picture, I took it at sometime in the evening, and the lights didn't really help much.
Performance
This gun can run off of both duster gas and green gas. I chrono'd this gun using the poor man's chrono guide I found on Airsoft Retreat. With duster gas it shot the BB at 290FPS+, using green gas it went a surprising 385FPS+. As you might expect, this gun isn't very accurate with duster gas, I was aiming at a target about 1 foot x 1 foot from 50 feet away, and I hit it about once or twice. However, using green gas, I could hit that same target at the same distance I hit it with at least half of the magazine. With green gas you could hit a man sized target from about 100feet away. I would also like to note that one fill of duster gas will last you about 15 shots, you have to pull back the slide to chamber a new round and fire after that. One fill of green gas lasts about 20 rounds.
Eye candy
Takedown
Field stripping the P38 is really simple. All you do is push the barrel back, pull the little lever down and pull the whole upper receiver off. From there you unscrew the screw in the grip and pull the grips off.
Putting the grips back together can be pretty tricky, I couldn't get them back on if I used any amount of force, so I just gave up and left it alone, and then after a while I hear a click, what do you know, the grips are back on properly! I don't know why, but okay.
The little lever I'm talking about
Rating
Accuracy: 7/10 - Pretty good with green gas
Build: 9/10 - Grips could be easier to put back on
Comfort: 8/10 - It's nice, the only thing I don't like about it is the magazine release, but that's just a P38 thing.
Skirmishability: 6/10 - Magazine can easily slide out if you gently push on the release, low magazine capacity and it likes to eat up gas.
Overall: 7.5/10
-
Love yah man. Have you had any reliablilty issues on green?
-
I've gone through one can of green gas and I haven't had any problems yet.
And thanks, I give you a heart.

TM P226 Chrome Review
Wow I got a lot of graduation money. Just today I got $250 in cash. So what better to do than drop by AEX and drool. I did handle the ARES Tavor, which is a damn fine and light weapon that I would love to have, but it's just out of my budget.
I decided to check out pistols. The Chrome TM P226 caught my eye. I handled it and was impressed. It feels great in your hands, by far one of the best I've held. Another feature that I loved was the hammer de-cocker. I test fired it and decided to buy it shortly after.
I go back home and open the box. There lays the nice P226 and a very organized and good looking box. The first thing I noticed were part of the SIG markings were burned out, but no big deal. The pistol is fairly lightweight compared to a full metal pistol.
The slide does lock back on the last shot, but since it's a plastic slide I can see it wearing down, just like my TM Hicapa 4.3 that no longer locks back. The gun also has a chrome barrel, which I'm sure is plastic.
The grip is noticeably different from other pistols I own or used. Most are normally sort of blocky feeling, such as the Glock and USP/MK.23. The P226 feels nice and rounded, just feels right in my hands. The lower frame is also a bit thicker than other pistols, making it easier to rest my off hand thumb on.
The iron sights are quite nice. They feature the white dots on them and are fairly easy to aim with.
The de-cocking lever is a great addition. You can release the hammer without having to worry about firing the gun while the mag is still in there. While this lever does de-cock the hammer, it doesn't act as a safety. In fact there is no safety lever on this gun. When the hammer is de-cocked, you can still pull the trigger and fire the gun, even though it has a longer and harder trigger pull.
Disassembly is quite easy. Just flick the switch above the trigger downwards and the slide is pushed forward. From there you can pull it off.
From there you can access the hop-up. I really hate this design, it's annoying to get to. Also check out the bottom of the box, it says:
"COOL of BRIGHTNESS" PROFESSIONALS PISTOL, lol
Testing
Shooting this gun is a blast. With the plastic slide the gun cycles quite fast and hard. It makes a loud bang when you shoot it, might even be louder than my TM Hicapa 4.3. The hop-up does seem to give it a good number of consistent shots.
Skirmish Report
I used this at CQB City for a night game. This pistol did come in handy inside the killhouse. I noticed I could pull double taps with this pistol faster than my other pistols. I think the trigger is slightly more sensitive and has less length of pull. It was extremely handy when we did the zombie game. I attached my flash light to it and waiting for the zombies to get the last 4 of us camped in the corner. When they rushed us, I took out at least 5 or more zombies quickly, even took a few out that nearly got a few of us survivors. I was hitting most of them on the first shot, it just felt natural with the P226. They turned on the lights just a bit after the rush. We won, so me, my dad, and Bryan all received free candy and soda from Chief for free.
Overall this is a great pistol. It feels great and performs admirably. Next step for me is to buy a serpa holster for it.

All but one of my reviews are back up i believe

That seventh picture looks phenominally badass. Its bettween this and Hicapa for my next GBB.

TSD M4/M1014 Shotgun
I've been looking for this gun in airsoft form for a good long time thanks to L4D and it being my preferred CS shotgun. I was a little disappointed when the only incarnations I could find of the gun in stock were the ECHO-1 spring shotguns. I finally picked this little number up recently at AirsoftGI (which is about a twenty-thirty minute drive from my house, very nearly the same distance as Evike is, but in the other direction), and it's great fun to use. And so, to commemorate my 666th post, I present the review of the TSD M01014 triple-shot shotgun.
Much like the M56C, when you pull the gun from the box, you will notice that it's mostly plastic. That was a downer for me, as was the weight - unlike my other shotgun, this one is not weighted with artificial weights. The entirety of the weight is the shotgun itself, and only the shotgun. It loses and earns points in my book in that regard - it's not too heavy and bringing it up to aim is incredibly fast in comparison, and running with it in tow is much easier. However, it feels a little flimsy because of the material and because it doesn't weigh that much.
I popped the box open while I was still at AirsoftGI. Inside was the shotgun itself, with the stock collapsed, sandwiched between two pieces of styrofoam. The package included a speedloader, the unjamming rod, four shotgun shells, a decent sling, and a bag of about 200 BBs. They're also TSD .20s, and like CubeMan said in his own review:
The sling is actually good quality this time around, and the shells are really nice to use and haven't had any problem as of yet when I'm loading or using them. The speedloader's good too, but I haven't met one that wasn't any good yet.
The sights are ghost O-ring types, which (for me at least) is easier to aim. They're also adjustable, with a slot for an allen wrench to lower or raise the rear sight. The rail is also very nice - I've mounted a Leaper's Red/Green dot sight there for shits and giggles - it isn't necessary, but it is very nice for quick target acquisition. I've since pulled it off for usage on another gun, but I do have plans in the future for getting another sight and attaching it to the rail. For awhile there, I did have a flashlight taped on, ala L4D, but much like the sight, I've pulled it off for other uses.
The M1014 is a monstrosity, at least for me, when the longest gun I've used is an M14. It rivals the length of M14s when you don't have the stock collapsed. There's a hollow space in the shell storage tube - the thing is so long that I think I could carry a unjamming rod with me wherever I go. That's a little problematic in CQB - your gun peeking out around a corner could give you away and just moving around in tight spaces can be a chore. That being said, it's not impossible to manuever and manage in CQB games, it'll just end up being harder than if you simply had a carbine or an SMG instead.
Loading and reloading is the standard affair. There's a lever that releases the shell door on the right side of the trigger guard. Shell door opens, you place a shell inside and close the door. This I found really nice - the shell didn't stick when you pressed the release. It pops out just like it's supposed to without any previous oiling or anything. Scored major points in my book, as I thought I would have to break it in over the course of several games or practice loading. Er, ignore my thumb in that picture.
The stock is literally the same thing as the M56C. You have the pistol grip, with a hollow space at the bottom of it for the storage of another shell if you so desired (don't use it, it's troublesome to get the shell out), and then you have the stock, which travels along a piece of metal. You choose the position you want - collapsed, first, second, third, and then the fourth, which pulls the stock straight off. Good for the usage of multiple people, but in my experience, my 6'3" friend can still use the gun on the same position as me, when I'm only 5'6". I haven't noticed any wobbling, but after a bit of hard usage, it is slightly bent to one side.
Racking the slide again is the standard affair. Pull it back, it cocks three springs and loads three BBs into the three chambers. Pulling the trigger releases all three. It's not hard, but it's not exactly easy either, as there is a good amount of resistance. It proves to be easier when you're using gloves of any sort. It lost points here though - there's no bolt to pull back like in the real-steel version. I would have been happy with just a dummy one, but it seems I'm going to have to do that myself if I want one on this shotgun. It's on my list of to-dos, though, along with creating a proper flashlight mount.
Now for test shooting. I before using it on the field, I tested it in my friend's backyard and my frontyard. For targets, I used his old playhouse again and my mom's folding lawn-chair. Setting up at approximately 25' with four shells at each location, I went to work. At my friend's house, I used his old playhouse window as a target. Out of the 120 BBs that I had on hand when I started, I would say that only about fifteen spread out so far that they didn't enter in through a 1' x 2' square window. Going back to my yard, I set up the same exact way. 2' x 2' folding lawn chair set up against a tree, four shells and my shotgun. Each of the BB's hit everytime I fired from about 25' hit the lawn chair without fail. I need to test the range further, but since this is an air-cocked shotgun, I'm more than happy with the range and accuracy results I've gotten.
If you're looking for a CQB shotgun to use or to have an M1014 shotgun without breaking the bank, get this. AirsoftGI has it listed for $75, though Evike does have it listed for $60. I'm not exactly sure why there's such a jump in the price of the gun. Feel free to order from Evike, but if you live close enough, it's probably just better to go and pick it up in person.

^AirsoftGi has the Promo on still, under the paypal when you are paying if you put like GITV or Tim (10%) or a few days ago the July 4 code (15%) off can knock off the price and if over $100 its free shipping 2.50 handling.

JG M4 S-SYSTEM (Basic Version), A (Very) Short Review:
(KJW 1911 shown above, fixed.)
An Overview:
The JG M4 S-SYSTEM is a fairly comfortable and cheap rifle, the upper and lower receivers are a high quality ABS plastic, and the barrel is aluminum along with the bolt and the buffer tube. It feels sturdy and doesn't feel like it will break anytime soon, There is a massive rail on the top that goes along the entire rifle (except the stock and buffer tube) for any scopes you may have. I like everything on this gun EXCEPT THE FUCKING BATTERY COMPARTMENT, You can hardly fit the mini type battery they give you in the handguard, it took me 30 FUCKING MINUTES to put it in there the first time. A PEQ box is an absolute must on this rifle. For the price it is a great value and i would recommend this gun to any beginning airsoft player.
Specs:
AirsoftGI clocked it at 430 fps with .20 gram BB's and i believe them on this one.
Accurate up to ~95 feet.
Magazine holds 300 BB's and feeds well. (slight wobble)
Front and rear flip sights. (Adjustable for both wind and elevation)
Comes with a 8.4v Mini type battery (which is an ABSOLUTE BITCH TO GET IN THERE)
(9 out of 10 small as fuck battery compartments)
Useful x 1
