"Amazing gun with perfect accuracy right out of the box. Put a laser on mine just to tell where gun was pointed and 90% of my shots hit. Only problem was the front sling mount wouldn't allow gun to load properly and jam but once I took that off I've had no problem.

"this is a pump action sniper in my opinion its very well built and very accurate put some electrical tape on the pump and it helps a lot. its heavy but i like that and it take some muscle to pump but its not to bad and WATCH your thumbs when you adjust the stock.
i would recommend this to anyone wanting a strong pump rifle/sniper

"Do not underestimate this thing! This is the weapon for someone that likes to sneak around because while you don't have the spread normally associated with a shotgun, this gun can very easily outrange any other secondary and most CQB primarys. I use this in an open field and outdoor wooded area. This will have the enemy thinking there is a sniper firing because it's silent. I use this at a range beyond pistols but under DMRs like using most carbines and rifles. If you keep the screw tight on top the hopup is accurate; not much deviation in groupings. As with any springer, it gets easier to pump over time as the spring settles. The body is HEAVY please realize you will get tired if you don't sling it. This shotgun really thinks it is a sniper, it REALLY wants to be one. It will fool anyone who's getting shot at by it. I have had this for over a year now and my advice is to keep the hopup oiled, keep the barrel clean, and make sure your screws are tight at the end of the day. It will not fail you.

"This shotgun is quite literally a devastating piece of machinery. Will cause bloody welts at ranges closer than 10 feet with .2's on bare skin; it could be used as a medium range sniper if desired. It has a great weight, and solid construction; well worth the price.
by Alex R. on 11/04/2015
"This shotgun is awesome. I'll get straight to it and say you have to tighten screws rather often so go ahead and loc-tite 'em up. It is a great field shotgun. I can match some people's AEG ranges with this. I use this in a wooded area with plenty of sightlines and it always feels comfortable thanks to the collapsible stock.

"It's really hard to find a quality airsoft shotgun that's constructed of metal or at least ABS plastic and some metal. Most shotguns are cheaply made and don't last long. Low quality plastic, low muzzle velocity, inaccuracy, and a myriad of other factors have contributed to the airsoft shotgun market being a rather depressing sight.

Until one day, I stumbled upon Echo 1's Advanced Tactical Shotgun series. The lineup had me instantly. ABS polymer construction, metal mag tube, metal optics rail, iron sights with a ghost ring, adjustable M1014 stock with a metal buffer tube, and a precision barrel packing 400 fps rounded out the features on this thing. I looked high and low, on the back corners of the internet, and even on Craigslist for one of these things cause they were out of stock everywhere. Come to find, they had been discontinued 3 years earlier. It was heartbreaking to find out. But a guy who I contacted earlier about buying one called me and said that Echo 1 was partnering with Bravo to create a new shotgun model. I was intrigued and asked for more details. A few days later, I found the very model on Evike and Airsoft GI. While I love both companies, I chose Evike cause of their quality service and attention to detail.

After reading up on the specs for this thing, I was hooked and had to have one. So I ordered one and it surprisingly came 3 days after I ordered it, and that was with the cheapest shipping. I took it out, immediately feeling the solidness of the construction, the weight, and the sheer intimidation this thing brought with just its looks. Along with the gun, I ordered 2 extra mags for it. Just target shooting with this in my back yard was insane. And as far as performance on the field, it stands up to AEG's and GBB's and can compete on their level. Now for the breakdown.

Pros:
-full metal receiver, stock, barrel, inner barrel, and piston
-high quality ABS polymer M4-style pistol grip and forend
-perfect velocity for field (395 fps with .20g)
-realistic weight (about 7.5 lbs)
-stock is super solid, no wobble, and even has a comfy rubberized buttpad
-manufactured by Echo 1 USA
-metal optics rail
-DEAD accurate and gives out some gnarly welts
-only $90

Cons:
-magazine sticks out the bottom of the well and it looks kinda cheesy
-the forend is tough to pump for the first 100-150 rounds, but gets broken in and helps you build forearm muscle (it helps a lot to put medical grip tape on the forend and pistol grip for comfort)
-stock does get wobbly after heavy use, but can be easily fixed with a hex key
-if you're not careful, there are some sharp edges you can get cut on, plus when retracting the stock, WATCH YOUR THUMBS-- I learned that the hard way

All in all, an amazing shotgun. The cons are more annoying than they are actual problems with the gun. As long as you're careful when retracting the stock and are ok with having a sore forearm after long days on the field, then you're good. Note: The fps advertised by Evike is kind of exaggerated. It's not 420-440 fps at all. When mine was chronoed for the first time, I shot 5 rounds into it. They came out ranging from 393-402 fps with .20g. A little too hot for CQB, but it makes for a great field secondary. Plus no one will see it coming during pistol/shotgun games. This thing is also Tac City Full Force Night-legal and Insight Interactive Big Boy Night-legal. I would definitely recommend this shotgun as it's only $90, $75 cheaper than the least expensive G&P M870. Great gun, great price. I give it a 5/5.

"This is my honest review of this product.

First off its pretty much a pump action sniper rifle. This gun has range and is dead accurate with .25s. In no way is it 420-440 fps, not even with .20s. Using my Chronograph It was 390 fps with .20 and 350 fps with .25s. Gun is extremely well constructed. Full Metal! Strong body and integrity. Overall this is a great gun.

I only have two issues with it. First when the stock is fully extended its is very wobbly. Second (I just might have gotten a janky one) occasionally after pumping it, the trigger won't set, and it is un-fireable. I still have yet to figure out how to avoid, but I believe it has something to do with making sure to cycle a full pump action. Also I really want to avoid taking the gun apart.

Pros:
Shoots hard
Accurate
Strong/Full metal
Retractable stock
25 round magazines (Could be good or bad on your preference.)

Cons:
Wobbly stock
That's my only con as I can't justify the firing problem might be only with my gun.

"enter the underdog of the airsoft shotgun world
this thing rocks, finally a single shot that actually shoots 350fps every time w/ .25 BB's so its perfect for indoor CQB unlike the G&P and Matrix (marushin clones) models which all shoot 400FPS or hotter (and cost more than twice the price), and good luck finding a field that will let you use one.
Firstly very solid all metal only plastic is the pump and screw cap on the end of the pump which mounts the only sling point, bit weird but doesn't bother me as i only use this in shotgun/pistol game so i never need to sling it, aside from that all the mechanism is metal. The pump action itself is very smooth and solid and i'm not worried about its breaking any time soon, but you will need some muscle to pump thing properly.
It's accurate as hell, so much so that i put a flip up iron bar sight on for that perfect long shot when it comes along (and believe me it does).
PROS
$$$$ its 90 bucks
full metal looks awesome
a single shot spring that shoots perfect FPS for CQB
Mags are cheap and solid only $14 each
solid build
collapsible stock looks awesome very little wobble and has good extention plus comfortable rubber butt stock
built in rail for iron bar
CONS
single sling point in odd possition
so far thats pretty much it
mag pouches are hard too find but condor grenade pouches can fit 2 mags nice and securely so i use those instead
wish you could mount a vertical grip on the pump but that just me being picky

All in all a great buy i didnt give 5 stars beacause of sling mount option and also because nothing ever perfect but this is as close as you can get in the shotgun market without spending over $200.
Buy one and unleash hell you wont regret it.
And always remember to LOOK MEAN !!!

pros
fu ll metal (even the magazine)

v ery little to no maintinence
its a spring gun and i can keep up with even the higher end aeg at my local field
lots of rail spacefor optics
very reliable
got mine for $40 from a friend

cons
when i got it the bbs would bounce off of the orange tip and just go straight in the air (easy fix with a pocket knife)

other than that i have no complaints and this works very well

"OK so this is the first higher end shotgun ive ever got. and i am very pleased for 90 dollars you get basically a 380 dollar gun (G&P / vfc shotgun) SO over all if you want something that you dont see everyday and wanna a gun like snakes (aka the reason i got mine) GET this gun.
by Rose C. on 05/17/2016
"This gun is very good and reliable. Being full metal it won't break and u can beat it up, also the stock and rails are very nice. The only three things I don't like is the trigger because it some times takes two pulls two shoot it and it doesn't come with a manual. This is my first shot gun and it was hard to learn what some things do but eventually I found out but also still the mag is hard. It's still confusing to load but besides that it's a great gun for a great price 👍🏼

"this is a great shotgun for the price
pros
full metal
tatical rail for a sight
nice feel
has hop up

cons
the ebr stock comes loose fast
the grip and pump hurt after 10 min of use
heavy good or bad
super hard to cock back but loosens after a few pumps

overall this is a good gun for anyone who love shotguns really worth your buck

"Would not be my first choice for a shot gun. It is decent quality, accurate and cheap. But dont be fooled, you get what you pay for. The pump broke after about 5 games. It would be an easy fix, if I could find the parts. But it is otherwise a fun gun for its price.

"Hey, it's a shotgun, but you get what you pay for.

Pros:
Full metal.
Heavy.
Durable
Rail System, Even Though Optics Are Useless On Non-Sniper Spring Weapons.
Looks awesome.
Cheap-ish.

Cons:
SAFETY TRIGGER!!! This means that you have to press the trigger twice for one shot!
Orange tip fell off, which is illegal. Nothing a little glue couldn't fix.
Very small clip- you would be surprised how much ammo you go through.
Inaccurate.

Do not buy this if you aren't planning on changing the internals or are just buying it for the looks. Definitely not any good for skirmishing.
