Steyr AUG Military Version(Tokyo Marui)

by Stef

It consists of a solid ABS plastic stock, cast metal scope/carrying handle & cocking handle block, and a solid metal barrel with integral foregrip (looks like brass inside, VERY smooth!), and is a very realistic weight (3.5KG or so). It's field strippable (like the real thing), into the above 3 components, and has a 2 stage trigger. Pull a little for single shot, and pull fully for RAPID full auto - 15 rounds/sec, using the new EG700 motor, DAMN fast!!!! Battery is an 8.4v Mini. Mag supplied is 80 rounds 89cvbn(with one of those annoying loading tube + ram rod type mechanisms), though a high cap mag (330 rnds) is available for about 45UKP (I've got one, it's well worth the extra money, you just pour the BB's in and wind the wheel).

As for the scope, it's made by TASCO, and is 2x with a crosshair type reticle, but with a circle in the middle. This scope is VERY nice, as while the magnification is low, it allows you to keep both eyes open. With practice you can spot and align the target quickly with your left eye (assuming your scope eye is the right), then very quickly 'switch' to your scope eye for 2x mag accuracy - allowing for very fast and accurate target aquisition! Nice! (note: unfortunately for left handers, of which I am one, the scope crosshair is angled for right handled aiming, so will appear 'skewed'ie. crosshairs not vertical/horizontal. In this case I'd recommend the AUG standard, where you can fit and align your own scope. Too late for me, maybe I'll see if a scope expert/repairer can re-angle it for me! Could be expensive though!)

That's all for the moment, I'll expand the above writing into a review in a few days
