AEK-971 rifle in the field

Real Steel to Airsoft

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen of the Airsoft Tag! Welcome to, yet again, another addition of Real Steel to Airsoft. Let's dive in, shall we?

The M16A4. Now, granted, it's easy to build an M16. Even DBoys has one from factory, so why is it on our list? Well, more and more are there M4s and AKs on the field. While this isn't entirely a bad thing, we'd like to see more longer barrel rifles. Besides, who actually hates the look of the M16? Let's mix up the M4 crowd a bit with the work horse known only as the M16A4.

To please those that desire something more Russian, we've added the AEK-971 to the pot. While we wouldn't be surprised if CYMA came out with this, we'd be more pleased if VFC came back into the AK market with this in their hands. A standard V3 gearbox could work, but we're concerned about the motor fitting in the pistol group. Perhaps a Gas Blowback version?

The Lee Enfield No 4 MK1. A classic rifle, an iconic rifle. We've seen tons of WWII loadouts for the Americans, even the Nazis and Ruskies, but not many British ones. Of course, the British Arsenal varied during the war from American made weapons to their own Sten, but the Enfield MK1 is just too iconic to pass up. In airsoft, it could be shell ejecting like the DBoys KAR-98, but the shells should be able to actually be useable and not jam the gun. Or, perhaps, it should be like the G&G KAR-98, where it uses detachable magazines (which are not entirely accurate to the rifle) with CO2 or green gas as the propellant.
