Good god, someone’s cloning an APS clone? APS, a.k.a. I’ve been told that this gun is the first Airsoft gun being made into a real steel gun, as patterned after the Airsoft gun. M4 mag compatibility is the only other distinctive plus – let’s hope that this APS takes PTS PMAGs, unlike some of those earlier APS M4’s that weren’t compatible with the nice PTS Magpul mags… On the flip side, it’s got lots of rail space, has lots of integrated external QD swivel points, and isn’t overly weighted in the rear like some other Airsoft bull pups I’ve handled, but still – this is really not my thing. Plastic feels like your standard made-in-China APS plastic, and there’s definitely a bit of flex in it. Bolt stop has pretty much ceased functioning at this point in time. Speaking of triggers, the trigger pull is long and mushy, far worse than your already-crappy AEG trigger. You more or less can’t reach the highest selector position with your thumb (this is more easily actuated with a trigger finger) – I can’t even recall if its for safe or not, it was that forgettable. Selector lever has a ridiculous placement.


(This statement corrected here as of ) All 3 mag catch buttons work somewhat okay. Looks to me like an ARES clone quick change spring guide gearbox, and apparently there’s a microswitch in there, too. The staff at work looked at it and pretty much immediately figured out it wasn’t brand new – there were scratches in the plastic and on the finish of the few metal parts that are accessible externally, and there was a pin or two missing.įrankly, I’m not impressed. To start with – the head rep of APS (I don’t like that guy’s arrogance to begin with) apparently dropped it off. APS made a little delivery on Friday to my place of employment, it seems. Turns out that this little guy was in at work when I stepped in Saturday.
