A&K SVD Dragunov Airsoft AEG Sniper Rifle w/ Metal Gearbox (Model: Real Wood Furniture)

"Got the gun for christmas and as soon as i checked to see if everything was in the box i noticed how sexy this thing is and i mean it looks awsome... but my happyness was short lived because when i lifted up the gun the stock fell right off and the mounts that are suposse to hold it to the gun are snapped right off :(( so i filled out a rma to send it back and in the mean time i decided to check out the performance of the gun. and again i was amazed by it once i ajusted the hop up for the .4s that i also got with the gun i was hitting not my nabors fence between my house and his but my nabor's, nabors fence between their two houses and ive walked it with a wheel tape before and its 286ft ! i continued to fire and from about 20 shots 16 hit the fence and in aabout a say 5 ft round grouping ... as for more practical sniping at 200 ft i could hit a 3ft wide tree 8 out of 10 times mild wind and i belive that was the main problem aswell as my shotty electical taped stock \:( causeing me to wable..

pros/
beautiful cosmetics
strong fps
light (seams like to me anyways im used to saws and other heavy weight guns)
accuracy
range!!

cons/
broken stock mine may just be a lemon but i hear alot of wobbly stock storys
not to be a wimp but cocking it after the 200 shots to ajust the finiky hopup made my middle finger swell up and turn purple (wear gloves will totally save your hands)
barrel has no threads
mag still has a little slop in it but from what i heard about the first gen. nothing in comparison and more than likely will not fall out
hop up ajustment not only finiky but annoying to get at plus its a rlly tiny allen and the gun doesnot come with a tool atleast mine didnt
slight forguard wobble

overall the pros totally out way the cons except the fact mine came with a broken stock thats y it deserves only 4 out of 5 stars not evikes fault prolly happend in shipping or the factory and the total pain in the butt hop up

"Great gun for the price.Best stock sniper out there.Does not look like an m28 or l96 either.

Pros:
Great FPS
Doesn't look like other snipers
Full metal
Long,accurate barrel.

Cons:
Hard to pull bolt.
You need a special scope mount and probably scope
Wobbly stock(Mine pops out on one side occasionally)
Small bolt,you need to pay for a bigger one(?)

Overall I recommend it if your 16+ or just strong.

"Rifle is a clone of the atoz dragunov that was discontinued years ago and seems almost better. The rifle shoots hard but is equally hard to chamber a bb. (380-410 .2s)

Pros:

-Metal barrel, magazine, reciever, trigger, and bolt
-Strong plasic foregrip and stock
-Shoots hard
-Iron sights dead accurate to 60-70ft easily
-High cap mag
-Easily upgradable
-Realistic


Cons:

-Hard bolt pull
-Slight play in the foregrip
-Mount is slightly off for scopes meaning real scopes can wobble around and potentially fall
-Not real wood
-Black makes every imperfection(scratch) noticeable


Overall this is the gun you bring to games that everyone wants to use in a game, but doesn't know if they want the scope or not because of the wobble and extra bulk. True croudpleaser and fun to use.

"Just received my SVD and out of the box I was initially impressed. At a closer look my first impressions went down from there. First problem I had was a loose screw for the front sight post that made it wobble. That was an easy fix but still should not be a problem for a brand new gun. Second problem I have is it seems like the gearbox housing is spitting little down the middle unsure if it will be a problem in the future but it will not let the bolt release forward without me pushing it back into place. Last problem is that the mag catch sometimes get stuck causing it to not lock the mag in place. Overall a pretty meh gun in my experience but if you like the SVD its worth putting up with it.

"So I bought this, got it home and went to test fire it in my yard. Sad to say i got 1 bb thru it before it stopped firing all together. I'm hoping mine was just a fluke or maybe I'm missing something.

"I've used it twice and it has feeding issues and is unreliable. I can't tell if its the the magazines or the gun but 9 times out of 10 it wasn't shooting when I needed it to. When I did get it to work it's very accurate.

"Bought the wood stock version, which arrived with a loose stock and stripped out screw holes. Didn't get a chance to shoot it, but overall quality seemed to be what you'd expect of a sub-$200 airsoft gun. Hop-up is rotary style, but with no tactile clicks, or much friction to hold the dial in place and prevent unwanted adjustments. Magazine fits, with little wobble, but the mag releases latch doen't engage without being pushed into place. The look and feel of the barrel and body are alright, but the poor mounting and low quality stock make me unable to recommend this rifle.
