Kel-Tec RDB airsoft rifle
RDB (Rifle, Downward-ejection, Bullpup) is an extremely interesting ASG assault rifle, manufactured by the ARES brand, under a license from the American Kel-Tec CNC Industries Inc. company - the manufacturer of the original firearm. This manufacturer is widely recognized, not only on the military, but also on the civilian market due to, among other things, original designs such as the KSG shotgun or the CP33 pistol. The RDB rifle itself is a development of another bull-pup weapon from the Kel-tec catalog, i.e. RFB.
The rifle is designed in a bull-pup setup, providing high maneuverability and mobility and relatively compact dimensions, despite a very long and effective barrel. Like the firearm prototype, ARES's Kel-tec RDB is made mostly of a thick polymer material, reinforced with nylon fibers. Metal elements include the breech chamber, outer barrel, upper RIS rail, gas pipe replica and manipulators, while the muzzle device, sling hooks and magazine release are made of steel. The hop-up system adjustment knob is located inside the magazine socket and the battery is placed under the front grip (DEANS / T-connect plug).
The airsoft rifle is powered by a dedicated ARES E.F.C.S. gearbox. with quick spring change function, programmable MOSFET unit and microswitch equipped trigger. Add to that the powerful High Torque motor and the already mentioned, 430 mm long inner barrel and we get the Kel-Tec RDB - a very effective and versatile airsoft rifle, which will prove itself both in forest and in urban or CQB scenarios.

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).
