AVALON Rapier Carbine Replica
The newest series of Avalon carbine
replicas by the acclaimed Vega Force Company brand is the result of a
union between the perfect external craftsmanship and the equally
superb insides. The care for details can be easily noticed in
every element - starting with the tip of the flash hider up till the stock pad.
Avalon replicas were made with the top-shelf of the airsoft market in
mind. It was made using precise CNC technology and high-quality aluminum
covered with an anodized coating that meets special military standards of
live firearms.
The replica’s construction is, of
course, full metal (aluminum alloy), with an addition of steel elements such
as the flash hider, shell ejection window flap, stock tube ring or
manipulators. The receiver bears effective Avalon Weapons Works markings.
Parts made of reinforced polymer include the QRS pistol grip with
an anti-slip, rough texture, trigger guard and an adjustable, telescopic
stock. The battery is stored inside the stock and a Tamiya Mini connector is
located there as well.
Other interesting external
elements in Avalon replicas include:
- custom trigger
- custom trigger guard
- custom upper and lower
receivers with a double magazine release button
Access to the Hop-Up chamber is
gained after pulling back the charging handle. The operational Bolt-Catch
mechanism also provides much enjoyment.
The replica features a long, top RIS
22 mm mounting rail and a modular KeyMod
Monster Rail handguard. This allows to mount a wide array of additional
attachments on the replica, starting with optical sights, through grips and
tactical lighting and ending up with laser sights.
The
heart and an essential
element of all Avalon replicas is an excellently-aligned and
carefully-designed ECS Avalon gearbox! ECS Avalon Features:
- ECS gearbox frame
- integrated MOSFET
- reinforced piston with special materials and aluminum CNC head
- special type, very light cylinder
- steel, ball bearing ECS spring guide
- Ultra High-Speed 8 mm ball bearings
- set of steel High-Speed gears
- Competition Vertical Trigger
- aluminum CNC nozzle
- reinforced tappet plate
- temperature-resistant contacts
- quick spring change system
The replica comes with a polymer,
Mid-Cap QRS magazine with a capacity of up to 120 BBs.
The set does not include a
battery or a charger.
The set includes:
- replica
- magazine
- 3 sets of RIS KeyMod rails
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).
