Is it worth it? I'm thinking about getting this airsoft gun but i dont know if its really worth it. Some of the reviews say its crappy and some say its awesome.

It is a gamble. Mine was total crap, same problem tons of other people had. Wont shoot half the time, and when it does a few go good the rest just fall out barrel or shoot 5 feet, I would tell you not to get this one there are others on amazon way better. About the shot gun,, i Knoiw my shot gun shoots about 350 fps,, it shot right through pepsi cans and shoots really good with heavy bb.

In my opinion, i would go for it. my gun is really powerful, and has been pretty reliable. the problems are the clip holds only around 25, and 6 or so pop out in the gun. it is also relly flimsy, the handle wobbles, and came off recently. the scope doesnt magnify, and the regular sight snapped off in the box. but for the price, definetly worth it.

My apologies for answering your question so late. It is about 260 FPS. Is it good for a backyard war? I would say no because you would only have 6 shots, reloading is a pain, and you need to pull the hammer back after every shot. Not unless you are a very disciplined shooter with pin point accuracy, this gun would be useful. You would need to by more shells to load your BBs in if you want to have more ammo with you (1 shell = 1 BB). The problem with that is that each BB is loaded into each individual shell. Overall, treat this like a real magnum in real life. High power for a handgun, high risk when reloading and ammo supply. My apologies for answering your question so late. It is about 260 FPS.

Agree with others. We bought 7 different cheap pistols most made of metal. This is the only one still working. Its Plastic , durable,& fun for airsoft wars with kids ( all under 15 yrs old) it doesn't hurt as bad as higher fps. Also my son says the grip on this gun is Serrated/notched which makes it more stable for pulling slide fast and not losing your grip from sweaty hands. Great choice of gun for price! Good luck.

I would say under 300 fps but 400 fps and above get a full head gear that would give you better protection, to play it safe. People I know run it in 400 fps battles says its okay and cant take the constant beating of the bb's.

i bought this gun within the last month it doesnt have a fps rating listed in this advertisment although most reveiwers claim its 180 to 200 fps but imo its right around 300 fps itll easily go thru both sides of a card board box if hit close to the center from 5 to 12 feet away.a 200 fps gun will only make a 1/4 dent in a peice of card board also it says in the add clip holds 25 ish bbs mine holds 32 bbs and yes i bought this exact gun from this add incase ne was wondering that.

It is fantastic for the price and I value it quite highly.. If you are a serious player of airsoft, plan to be, or have friends who are avid players with incredible guns, this may not be for you. It is a fun gun and amazing, since it is automatic. I recommend it for a first gun since it is easy to use as well. My friend bought an expensive gun his first time around and had trouble using it since it was meant for experienced users, so I think this is a nice one if you don't know how to use guns (real or fake).

This gun runs off of bigger tanks. Not the small cartridges used in airsoft guns. They can run off 9oz or bigger.

Yes it is an airsoft sniper. It comes with the side magazine and adapter for the mag and 5 mock shells. But I ended up returning after I got my part because stuff kept breaking on it. And to just get my return shipping labels it took over 2 months. That being said, if a problem occurs with your rifle AirSplat isn't a very fast company from my experience. If I were you I would bite the bullet and spend a little more money 200+ is where you will mostly get a very accurate and powerful rifle. Also, if you have an airsoft store near you it's be worth checking out what the have. From my experience you get much better customer service and you can actually tell if what you want is crap or good. I've bought 4 airsoft guns online and have sent back all but one due to being damaged from defects and just being crap. The forth I just went and got fixed locally.

I really have no idea. we bought a few airsoft guns including this one for our 2 boys and they were all complete garbage they tore up with in a few days and either wouldnt charge up or wouldnt shoot. And all the attatchments are junk. Stay away!!!!!!!!

I'm going to say right now that I have never seen a fully automatic Airsoft gun that shoots around 80-100 feet per second. Meters per second is another thing. This Airsoft AK47 has a muzzle velocity of roughly 350-375 FEET per second (that is roughly 117-150 METERS per second). Not sure what "diabolol" pellets are. This Airsoft gun fires .6mm plastic bbs. You can use glow in the dark, colored, marking (usually voids warranties though), biodegradable bbs, and different weighted bbs (.2 gram plastic bbs seem to work best, but I have heard that .23 work well too). At the time that I purchased this particular model, I paid roughly $125. For $150 (not including tax) you can go to airsoftmegastore.com and get a G&G M4. I think the M4 would be a better option because it was A) nicer quality B) better performance and C) a more durable gun. This AK47 fell apart after a while, and I am now just attempting to salvage parts. However, my M4 is working splendidly and has suffered much misuse and still continues to function well. All in all, this was a decent gun for the price. I don't regret buying it, but I wouldn't buy another. Also, I bought this gun three (and a half I think) years ago. I used it many times and enjoyed using it every time, but I personally prefer my M4. It is better and has a different feel. That being said, I was never disappointed when I traded and got the AK instead of the M4 during our little skirmishes. I believe this answered your question. If you have more, please feel free to ask.

I bought this as my first gun too, it was great for a while but then I stared to realize I could have of bought a lot nicer of a pistol with full Audo firing and double the fps for the the same amount so it's your choice but I would recommend starting with this gun because it is a good starter gun. I hope this help

No its a pump style airsoft gun. Its all plastic so I'd be easy on it. And wear eye safety because I got it for my nephew and when we tried it. It ricocheted right back at use. Its also a bit thought to pump so keep that in mind. My nephew also broke the barrel quit easy unfortunately.

The kids here are ages 8 to 15 , the youngest said if it hits you in the arm from close up it hurts , if it hits you in neck from close you'll want to quit game. All other shots you notice but not enough to stop playing. (The 8 year old is very small child.) All kids agree that it is one of the best airsoft pistols we own. Good luck. :-)

Hello my friend:I may be wrong, but one can only assume these days that it's Chinese (thank your politicians not the Chinese). They seem tough enough, a decent build, and pretty much like a straight knock- off of the expensive ones that I just could not see paying more than two hundred bucks for. Honestly, I haven't beaten the crap out of them yet in the field to see if they stay zero, but I will soon. Remember that nothing is indestructible. Another fix would be forty five degree Picatinny rails with flip up Magpuls. I might try that just for ability to keep a low profile in the gun bag. As for these, you can always send them back, but for the money I'm keeping mine.

It has full auto, but it runs out fast. It is good for your first time playing airsoft so you can see if you like it, but you could probably get something better for not much more . I don't remember how the range was because I bought the product some time ago.

I think so. I was really pleased with the purchase. It shoots real fast and is pretty accurate. I would suggest getting a speed loader(the cheap ones work just fine) because the magazine holds about 30 bb's and if you shoot in auto it will shoot them pretty quick. Other than that.... In my opinion the gun is pretty much well made and haven't given me any problems so far.

This particular gun doeant hurt that bad. But u can play with the fps on it and make it shoot further and harder. Ive added some mods to mine and I can knock a tin can off a kids head at a little further than a football field long
