Assault Rifle Replica
The newest series of
replicas by Amoeba Airsoft is based on a well-known design of AR assault
rifles. However, these replicas were appropriately modified and upgraded with
many construction details and interesting technological solutions,
which increase not only their functionality but also visual appearance.
The receiver of the
replica was made from a reinforced nylon. The quality of materials used
makes it difficult to notice straight away that it is in fact polymer not
metal. Receiver boasts effective in appearance markings, among other, of
model, caliber and Amoeba Airsoft logo. Metal was used in the manufacture of
the outer barrel, flash hider, stock slide and several miscellaneous elements.
The pistol grip is adequately profiled and covered with a rough, anti-slip
texture that increases comfort and steadiness of the grip. Magazine release
button was enlarged in order to make its usage easier.
The replica features
a telescopic, adjustable SF stock, which allows to adapt the
length to the user’s body shape and preferences. The battery can be stored
inside the stock and its slide. The stock has also QD (quick detach), double-sided tactical
sling swivels. Access to the Hop-Up regulation knob is gained in a traditional
way in this type of construction - by pulling back the charging handle and
uncovering the shell ejection port.
Universal 22mm RIS
mounting rails located on the hand guard and on the top of the receiver allow for the
attachment of a wide variety of additional accessories, starting with optical
sights and ending up with flashlights and forward grips. The assault rifle has
fixed iron sights: flip-up front and rear sights, attachable to a RIS
rail.
The outer barrel has a
right-handed, 14 mm thread which boasts a flash hider.
Amoeba Airsoft
replicas have the ability to rapidly replace the spring without having
to disassemble the gearbox skeleton. The heart of this replica is a
reinforced, slightly modified gearbox v.2, with an integrated EFCS -
Electronic Firing Control System module. It controls the operation of the
trigger mechanism, allowing for smooth operation and, above all, shortens the
motor reaction time to a squeeze of the trigger. A standard connector cube
was replaced with an electronic system. EFCS has an in-built MOSFET
module.
EFCS significantly prolongs
the lifetime of the mechanism, thus of the entire replica and allows
to use a high-voltage battery, including LiPo. After
purchasing an external, dedicated EFCS programmer, the user will gain
the ability to set the sequence of fire modes, as well as the burst mode (3-BB fire).
The replica comes
with a polymer hi-cap magazine with a capacity of up to 300 BBs. The magazine
has a rough, anti-slip texture and a foldable pull-mag handle.
The set does
not include a battery or a charger.
The set
includes:
- replica
- magazine
- User’s manual
NiCd
rechargeable battery is characterized by high efficiency
current-carrying capacity, but there are disruptive effect on memory.
Should be unloaded and loaded in the full cycle, ie, it is recommended
to fully discharge, and after unloading must charge the battery
immediately without leaving it for a long time in a discharged state.
NiMH batteries have a higher self-discharge over time and shorten the
life - on the other hand, they earn about 30% more capacity.
Blow back is a simulation system of the cocking lever - it imitates the work of it as the equivalent sharp. This system raises the realism and adds a lot more experience during shooting.
It is the spped of bb, while its leaving the innerbarrel of replica. This speed is measured in FPS (Feet Per Second).
1 FPS = 0,3 m/s
1 J = 99 m/s
1 J = 326,7 FPS
Indications v2, v3, v6 does not mean the level of advance, but only shape of gearbox skeleton which was used and selected by the manufacturer depending on the capabilities of the body of the replica. For example, a models of the M4/M16 family, MP5, have a v2 gearbox, while the AK family have gearbox v3.
Hop-Up system is used for overclocking bb during the shot (putting it in rotation), through which, it extends its flight path. Acting laws of physics make that bb lift up, while the gravitational force take it down. Appropriate adjustment of Hop-Up, will compensate for these two factors, which result in long and straight flight for longer distance and be greater focus shot (to improve accuracy).
