"This is the BEST AK 74 YOU will EVER get!

Mine is high accuracy with high fps ( Reaches up past 200 ft easily )

Full Metal and Wood

You wont find a better AK

High fire rate power even with a 8.4V battery, works better with 9.6 V battery

Don't let price fool you its not a cheap gun, this gun is extremely well built and way dependent you would have to be a fool to break this or way too extreme.

"The CYMA Cm.048m is a very high end rifle for a very low price. This rifle out performs my ICS M16 in range and power. The rifle has a very heavy weight to it and it feels good holding it in your hands. The wood, while not the best looking, does the job. The hopup is very good and it seems to be decently accurate. I also love how easy it is to disassemble to the rifle.

The rifle does not come with a metal flash hider like some other rifles do, so you have to purchase one separately and the orange flash hider is almost impossible to take off and I have yet to have any luck getting it off.

My gripes about the rifle is that the stock is very small and cannot fit any stick type batteries and it prefers only small types because the fuse in the back of the rifle takes up half of the battery space because it is HUGE. I bought an 11.1v nunchuck to replace the stick type.

The rifle is also very picky with the magazines and it does not fit any G&P mid cap magazines. You will more than likely have to file the back of most magazines you get, including the one that comes with the rifle. My inner barrel that came with my rifle appears to have been cut near the hop-up and there are a lot of scratches on it so my suggestion is to buy a new barrel ASAP.

Despite my problems I rate the rifle a 9/10.

"I was very weary of the cheap AK. But my brother has a Cyma SOCOM 16 and it was very well built so I picked up one of these and couldn't have been happier. Shoots amazing out of the box, very heavy gun but I feel that adds to the realism. This is one amazing deal.
PROS
Real steel and wood
Great FPS and accuracy
Sturdy build, I had to tighten the stock when I first got it but that just requires an Alan wrench
CONS
Heavy (only if your not strong or use to polymer guns)

"This great for the money. You get a real stamped steel body, all wood furniture, and a great FPS ~380 .25g This gun is great for dirty outdoor play because it's solid and durable. I've had no jamming problems in the motor seems to handle 11.1 V 20c Lipo batteries without any problem. The rate of fire is moderate maybe 15 balls a second/sec. I use this gun as my every day Russia/China/terrorist weapon to complement my M4 for a primary gun when I'm not playing Western based roles.

I would recommend this gun for anyone looking for all-around good primary weapon that will be used and aggressive outdoor play.

"Cyma is known for building high performance low cost AK's. And in this case they really stepped up their game.

The guns externals are the best from cyma but they are not the best. The pistol grip is much larger than real life but i dont care as they have to fit a motor in it so... The folding stock, trigger guard, mag release, lower & upper recievers along with the cleaning rod and gas tube were steel on mine.

The barrel, front sight post, trigger, and the "block" below the rear sight post are cheap pot metal. The wood wasnt too bad, its hardware wood but whatever its an AK. The finish on the wood was terribly ugly so i sanded mine down and re stained it a russian dark red-brown.

The internals of the gun are what really makes it. The gun comes with a 6.04mm barrel, a metal hop up chamber (cheap metal as my hop up adjustor came in 2 pieces, it still works but cmon cyma.)

The hop up bucking seems solid for a stock gun, there are better ones but they wont make that much a difference.

The motor is again decent, i dont own a soddering gun so i would not replace mine.

The gear box is metal and very durable. The gears, piston, and almost everything in the gear box is well built.

My upgrades to mine: restained grips which really makes this gun look great. A 6.01 mm madbull $45 barrel, 9.6v battery (recomended to anyone buying this, the gun is NOT lipo ready imo, maby a 7.4), The shim job was terrible so i reshimed it. I also have a supressor on mine.) I have some other various things i just cant remember...

With these upgrades i can shoot up to 90 yards!
50 yards you can hit a man almost every time
75 yards about 2/5 the time etc

Currently im looking to sell mine as i have had it for a year now and i want some money to buy an E&L AK, they are over $300 and it would look good with my kwa glock 19)

In conclusion I think the cm048 line is the best performing aeg for $150.


Pros:
Good rof on 9.6 v battery
Stock accuracy and range are as good as it gets for a stock gun
internals will last a long time and are high quality
externals are pretty nice for $150
very easy to take apart and easy to upgrade




Cons:
Lots of various pot metal used
stock wood grips are low quality and the finish/stain is terrible imo
hop up lever came broke
stock 8.4 v battery came defective, probably just wire problem, i dont care as i never planned on using it
paint finish is a matt black as apose to the gray-blue-black finish on the real ones
ALL these are minor complaints and they dont matter because your getting more than you pay for anyways.

"excellent gun for the money, I got the Echo1 version, although it is essentially a rebranded cyma it is definitely worth looking into. Had this gun for 3 years w no problems and then the problems I had were minor. After a new o ring and new spring after 3 years gun still shoots amazingly. having owned over a dozen guns this one definitely holds up

"Just bought this gun a few days ago. Got it in the mail and immediately, I'm floored.
The furniture isn't cheap pot metal. It's very nice and sturdy metal.

PROS:
Full metal
ROF is around 13-16
Orange tip is easily removed with a hairdryer
RIS is very nice and sturdy

CONS:
"Real Steel" unjamming rod under the barrel cam out easily. But it does that on the real gun so, no problem.
Mags are a PAIN to get in, ( G&G Midcaps ) and take a firm hand and a bit of strength to get in.

All in all, GREAT gun for anyone looking for a combat ready AK.

"This gun is overall an amazing gun. I got this gun about a month or 2 ago and it is the best gun i have ever had. I cannot find a single peice of plastic on this gun except for the pistol grip. the front grips are real wood and it is really easy to get the battery in and out of this gun. The fps of this gun is about 420 and it is a very hard hitter.

Pros:
Full metal
Real wood
420 FPS
Good RoF
Folding stock
Blowback
Comes with new metal tip instead of orange tip

Cons:
The mag that comes with it is ugly and does not feed well But that is an easy fix by buying a new mag.

Overall this is a very good gun for the price and i would strongly recommend buying it.
by James R. on 01/12/2012
"echo1 red star wolverine ak74 is the model I got which is a rebrand of the CYMA

by soticman d. on 11/16/2011

Pros

Real Wood

everything is awesome
AMAZING GUN!!!!

Cons

by Jackson S. on 11/14/2011
"weapon is great, just like the real AK74S issued by the Soviets during the Soviet Afghan War (1979-1989) people have been complaining about plastic mags, the real AK74s DID NOT HAVE METAL MAGAZINES, they were made of a composite plastic material called Bakelite. nice wood foregrip, over all a VERY STURDY GUN, magazine wiggles a little bit but hey so do the real ones. as an added bonous it comes with an actual Soviet issue AK74 sling. The collapsable stock is very sturdy

"What can I say? It's simply portable destruction.

-DEAD accurate, something I value in all guns.
-Insane ROF.
-Literally smokes all GBB guns. I shot at a steel plate together with my cousin, who has a GBB revolver. His gun couldn't even reach the steel plate.
-Comes with built-in scope mount. If you use it, I recommend getting a flip open red dot sight. It looks nice and helps you aim better.
-Very long range, you can snipe with it using the semi auto selection. Buy a PSO-1 and you own an automatic sniper rifle.
-Lastly, for all you people outside of the U.S. like me, you may want to paint the orange tip black. I used a permanent marker. It looks more natural than you may anticipate...

Overall, a big value for money. Good for beginner airsoft players. Have fun!

"let me start off by saying this gun is AWESOME!! Evike is a fantastic store and has great prices on all their items. Anyway this gun performs great, i currently use a Matrix Tenergy High Output 9.6V 2300mAh Ni-MH Custom Type Battery which is here for $32.00 and i barely fit that into the full stock. unfortunately you can't fit a large type into the stock. The real wood and full metal construction really is amazing. CYMA have outdone themselves with this gun. I havent had a chance to chrono this gun yet. this gun is a must-buy, and for $188 is a steal since the internals are good, externals are so high quality and the wood isnt the cheap kind either. GET THIS GUN!!!
