Han - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) This review is from: Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 Electric Powered Airsoft Rifle (Sports) This airsoft gun is hands down the best airsoft AEG out there! Like its real world counterpart, this full metal AK-47 showcases the best qualities that makes a good airsoft gun: accurate, high-powered, reliable, excellent construction and inexpensive. ================= Accuracy: Out of the box, this gun is fairly accurate, although the inner bore is something around 6.08 mm (which is a fairly loose tolerance for high-end airsoft guns). Coming from a sniper platform, where I'm used to the BB flying to precisely where the crosshairs are lined up at 200 feet, this tolerance was not okay for me. I'm really keen on exact precision - anyone else who doesn't need exact precision will be perfectly happy with the stock inner barrel since you can just spray a narrow cone of bullets at 600 rpm. Also, most AEGs will come with an inner bore around 6.05mm to 6.10mm - it's not just this gun, it's almost any gun. For me, all I had to do was get a 6.01 mm tight bore [...] [...] for $[...] and 30 minutes of install later, this gun was firing BBs at 600 rounds per minute with the same precision as my L96A1 sniper with a 150 foot range! In addition, you will find that pound for pound, the AK-47 rifles with the 455 mm long inner barrel will do significantly better than any M4 or AK74s out there. Why? The M4s all have a 363 mm inner barrel, which is under the minimum of 400 mm necessary for the BBs to have truly stabilized their flight path. You will see that with the same inner barrel inner diameter, the AK-47 will fire significantly better groupings than its M4 counterpart. M16s do just fine against the AK, but you'll have to spend at least $[...] for just the gun and then $[...] for the inner barrel upgrade. Why pay for more? High-power: This AEG fires near the maximum allowable speed for airsoft skirmishes straight out of the box: nearly 400 FPS. It has the same range as my former AGM MP001 sniper and with the tight-bore upgrade, the BBs fly even a little faster as less air leaks out around the BB! You can't really upgrade this gun unless you want to risk being disqualified at airsoft events with a M120 spring. Reliable

The Soft Air Kalashnikov AK47 tactical is a great AEG. It is extremely accurate at 20 yards (I can easily get a 50% hit rate with coke cans from this distance) and it packs quite a punch. The fire rate is very fast the gun is very reliable. I have shot over 12,000 rounds (5000 .20g, 5000 .25g, and 2000 .12g) and I can say that you will definitely want to buy .25 gram BB's, otherwise you will have a problem with having to aim low because the lighter BB's will float. I've been in three airsoft battles with it, and every one I won without getting hit once. I did it with a couple of my friends (going 1v2) and we had the battles in the woods with a rule of three hits and your out. Like I said, it packs a punch, because I put a big welt on my friends face from about 15 yards. The tactical design is also much better than the traditional Kalashnikov AK-47/M style design, because the foldable stock is great during CQB and the railings allow for flashlights, sight attachments, foregrips, laser sights, etc. The trigger is also very easy to pull, unlike many other airsoft guns. Battery only takes four hours to charge, and you can easily get anywhere from 1000 to 1500 rounds off with one charge. It's also very durable, I accidently hit the barrel against a doorway pretty hard, and there wasn't a scratch. Another time I dropped it so hard that the flashlight attachment broke, but there was no damage to the gun. Also, during an airsoft war, I tripped over a vine when running and the AK slammed against gravel rocks. There were only a couple scratches. Overall, it's a very impressive AEG for an affordable price. Despite people telling me to instead get a KWA or a TM, I got this anyways and it's just as good. It's very realistic and similar to the real deal, and it is a potent gun in wars. Pros: Tactical Design Reliable Internal parts (12,000 rounds and no jams) Durable External parts High FPS Very Accurate Easy to Load (Holds 350 rounds and can be poured in via a funnel) Cons: Heavy (although this is like a real AK) Clip has trouble when down to 10 or 15 rounds Sometimes difficult to insert the clip (although this too, is just like a real AK)
