CYMA SVD Dragunov Airsoft AEG Sniper Rifle (Model: Add 7.4v LiPo Battery + Charger)

"I bought this gun when I was sick of my l96 and it is a very welcome addition to the arsenal. Long but very well balanced. Easy to maneuver even in the woods (just mind the length...). Mine chromos as 440 with .2s. This gun feels like its gonna last. I've had it for about a year and it's one of my favorite guns. When I take this baby out to a field I sometimes have to switch to my AK just because it feels unfair. If your thinking of getting into sniping/dmr, trust me, this is perfect.
p.s. check out the JG scorpion if your need a sniper sidearm, these two are best friends ;)

"I received this SVD in a mystery box this spring. I was not sure about it because it is so long and only semi-auto. After using it one time I fell completely in love. The stock weapon out performs my SR-25 and the newest M14 prototype from G&P. I have upgraded both of them with inners and outers and they still do not feel as solid or shoot as well as this SVD. I have always been set on using full auto in a fire fight but this weapon is amazingly fast on semi auto and incredibly accurate. I do use an 11.1v lipo but the rest is stock. It shoots around 470 fps with .20s out of the box and with .28s can easily hit a man size target at 220 + feet with no upgrades.

I am extremely excited to add this to my collection and find myself using it almost every time I go out onto the field. You will be happy about the 4 gear system and the durability plus reliability it offers.

"I love king arms this is a great gun highly suggested

"This is possibly the best sniper i have ever bought stock! Although all stock sniper platforms needs or should be upgraded this thing is awesome!. Also it's easy to upgrade. It's Semi-Auto which is much better and more fun than a bolt action! (My Opinion) And the details are very professional. This is all of you should know is a clone of the Real Sword SVD which is the highest standard for a SVD AEG, which if you have the money should buy right now, but just because it's a clone doesn't mean it's worse as many people think. CYMA literally cloned the Real Sword with this gun, the detail is unmatched and just just like the RS is just like the real thing. It's uses a custom 4 gear t3 gearbox which i took apart and has everything steel except for the piston and some parts that don't need to be, so i think you could run a 11.1 LIPO out of the box. It's what i did after installing a MOSFET. It's also has a CYMA high-torque motor which is so much better than standard AEG motors and has Neoplothetic Magnets which could pull a m150-m170 stock with the right adjustments. I use it all the time in battles and it performs like a boss! If you don't have enough money for the Real Sword but want the second best SVD AEG (The King Arms and A&K Suck!) then you should buy this baby. P.S. The 4 gears are so it doesn't lock up like most full and semi AEGs do.

DON'T GET THE ECHO 1 SVD UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY $50 FOR THE BAND NAME. IT'S JUST A RE-BRAND OF THE CYMA POLYMER VERSION WITH MADBULL SHARK HOP-UP BUCKING AND A M150 FOR 70 BUCKS MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<-

Performance: It's shoot very nice and smooth with a incredibly large stock range of 150-200 feet which i have hit a person with in battle stock. It shoot as fast as you can pull the trigger which with a LIPO is basically full-auto. It's a little bit heavy but not over 10 pounds. I think about 8. The bolt makes a very satisfying metallic CLANK with you pull it back. Although must of the gun but the gas tube, bolt, and bolt are steel, it turns out so it the barrel with many people said wasn't the case and though it was crappy pot-metal. I used one of my steel magnet motors which said it was steel so I'm really happy about that. The wood is good for CYMA but i suggest restrained and polishing it. Here is a list of PROS and CONS

PROS:
1. Realistic
2. Accurate as Ballz (Yes, .......Yes it is)
3. Shoots Hard (I chronoed 450 fps with .20)
4. Sleek Design
5. Upgradeable
6. Long Stock Range (150-200 feet max)
7. Great Feel
8. Mostly Steel or Full metal
9. Strong Stock Motor
10. 4 Gear T3 Full Metal Gearbox
11. Spare Parts Available
12. A Total Beast And Pleasure To Use!
13. Good Finish On Wood And Easily Re-stained
14. STEEL BARREL!!!
15. Good Working Hop-up
16.Sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CONS:
1. High-Cap Mag not Mid-Cap (Good but rattles gives away position)
2. Unknow Metal Other Than Steel
3. Heavy After A Lot Of Running/Playing
4. Not A Real Sword :(
5. Needs Upgrades Stock (Don't All Airsoft Guns)
6. Doesn't Make Me Bacon Pancakes or Waffles
7. Doesn't Clean My Room or Do Chores Like My Robot Slave
8. Yep.............

Overall this is a amazing gun that you have to get if you like russian guns or want an SVD. 5/5!!!!!!!!!!!!

"This is an amazing gun. I suggest this to anyone looking to buy an airsoft gun.

"I bought this gun and it work fantastic esecially with .36g bb's and hop up 3/4 up but then after cleaning it thoroughly it seems to have lost some power or was over lubed.

pro
super accurate with .36
decent fps

"Good gun, highly recommended from a satisified Airsofter / owner

"This is a great rifle for those who wish to play the sniper role. Great quality and shoots fantastic. Hop up is in a neat easy to get location on the rifle, therefore making quick adjustments very easy. And this does not cost an arm and a leg.

"This is a REAL review and guide to this gun. Hope it helps you with your buying decision.

Now, first thing is first, I would upgrade the spring till its shooting around 380-450fps. I would get a different barrel tight bore or something I don't know about that a friend of mine suggested it. Go get a nice scope and maybe even a real rifle scope. Then, you can get the most out of this rifle in any situations!

"Good gun, get a scope with it. Looks amazing and shoots smooth!

"Great rifle out of the box, only problem I have with it is that the dovetail on the receiver is absolute garbage and failed in multiple areas, but nothing a little sanding and JB weld can’t fix. Other than that I am very pleased with the performance and feel of the gun. If you plan on buying this, I recommend (if possible) going to the store and physically inspecting it before buying just to make sure you’re getting a good receiver

"I got this for one of my first airsoft guns and I was impressed with he overall performance but there are some things that I would consider before buying.

Pros:

1.Real wood stock and grip area
2.Thing is cool to hold, has a nice weight to it
3.Has a good FPS with .25 BBs of 360-375 on a full charge
4.Great attention grabber due to the length

Cons:
1.Battery compartment is tiny and if you want to fit anything in there as a brick over 1000mAH forget about it. (looking back at it a nunchuck might fit.)
2.Out of the box the accuracy of it was not the best, the BBs with no wind tended to drift severely to the left no matter what I did
3. The grip area is two separate pieces that you take apart to put a battery inside, these will constantly split by ~5 mm sometimes. Not damaging performance its just annoying.

In conclusion its good out of the box but nothing exceptional. It looks great but needs some work to make it a true marksman rifle. 4/5

"Mine is the wood furniture model, wood doesnt line up with metal well at all, but i feel like thats part of the cheap russian gun copy charm. I would like to take this gun to the next level, but i dont know if a v3 Gate titan will fit as this is not a standard gearbox for an AK.

"I wanted an SVD and I wasn't willing to spend the money on a realsword. so I determined this would be the best option. For a sub $200 gun, I didn't expect much. I was pleasantly surprised.

Pros:
- Great gearbox (surprisingly good shim job too)
- Solid build
- Great weight

Cons:
- Accuracy (better than most m4s but not quit good enough for a DMR)
- Bad Motor (I recommend getting a high torque ASAP)
- Terrible trigger response (fixed with a new motor)

After installing a new barrel with flat hop, and a new motor the gun turned out to exceed all expectations. I am now able to hit a man sized target at 250+ ft no problem. This gun looks awesome and performs amazing for a price much lower than the realsword. I recommend this for anyone who knows how to work on a gun (or can follow simple youtube vids).
