That's right, I felt like a Rockstar of the Airsoft world once I squeezed that trigger and let that puppy roar! I ordered this machine on Amazon via Air Armory on May 12th and received it today (opting for the lowest shipping option), May 17th ... 3 business days later! As if that wait didn't seem like an eternity (only 3 days), the 1.5 hours to charge the battery seemed even longer if possible.

With the Value package for the same price as just the rifle at most vendors I received my rifle, 8.4v 1100 mA battery (though they give you enough room to fit a car battery and wire that reaches the stock), a 9.6v 500 mA trickle charger (for speedy charging), 500 CA quality .20g BBs, a actually VERY nice pair of amber shooting glasses, and of course the el cheapo sling, but hey, 4 outta 5 extras ain't bad. Not to mention the VERY well translated manual and glossy CA catalog to boot.

So I eagerly open the box and it was like opening the "case" in Pulp Fiction, my shiny (actually matte) new toy. Listed at 350 fps though rumored to be quite higher, just don't tell the CQB authorities! To kill time waiting for the battery and get a feel for guestimating the true fps, I broke out my trusty Galaxy MK5K rated at 315 fps and fired a few rounds at each of the 4 targets I set up at 25' away. The Galaxy performed as I expected, rattling off at about 325 to 330 fps with TSD .20g BBs.

DING! the timer on the stove let me know it was time to kill some cardboard. Now I went into this with a $300 budget in mind and did a LOT of research. In addition I did buy a Barska 30mm Red Dot Scope and Carry Handle Weaver rail mount. I came nowhere near $300 but even if I did I would still be just as happy! Anyway, a few shots in semi to make the proper adjustments with a few clicks here and a few there and now I was zeroed in. In semi I was dead on with just under quarter sized grouping (20/25). Consistent on all three targets. Then came full-auto ... Very nice. Not sure what the center of the "O" is on a medium size Home Depot box but I was all up in it shredding that "O" at a fierce guesstimated 370 to 380 fps smacking my target into submission. This time I was using the CA BBs that came with. So to sum things up ... oh and the ArmaLite logos rock ...

Pros:
*Quite hefty and very realistic
*Everything but the Con(s) below ...

Cons:
*Sling mount is on the left side of the barrel just beneath the front sight. It bangs against the fore-grip and metal barrel; and yes I am a south paw. Most of the reviews I read said this could not be moved but upon close inspection there is a 2nd set of holes on the bottom of the bracket, well that is where it is mounted on their other M4 derivatives but between inspecting the assembly itself and the assembly chart in the manual there appears to be one hollow tension pin holding the actual sling mount, and two pins holding the assembly itself together, so all hope may not be lost.
*Unlike other CA rifles, the orange birdcage appears to be glued on and it did not come with a black metal replacement

That's it folks, hope you've enjoyed reading this review as much as I did writing it, but most importantly found it useful.
