CYMA Platinum SMG9 Airsoft Electric Submachine Gun
(Model: M4 Stock)

"This thing is freaking CRAZY for an mp5!!! I have used thousands of different airsoft guns in the last decade, and my jaw has never dropped so far in shock from the power, precision, SNAPPY RESPONSE, and reliability from a small smg before. I am able to throw several rounds down quickly and confidently. The semi auto is so phenomenally immaculate. Just beyond outrageous!!!! That is seriously new technology! Only 2 words to describe this. HOLY COW

"Have taken this to 10+ open plays. I mostly use this as a loaner gun to my friends and have used it my self a couple games. Gun is snappy, sounds great, and is accurate. High ROF and feels solid, one of the heavier guns I own but I enjoy it. I left this gun stock including the Bucking and nub and it can hop .32 no issue. The only negative I can say is that the paint job is not super durable and has gotten scratches and nicks a lot faster than my other airsoft guns.

"I've had the SMG9 for about a week now and am very impressed and happy. The CYMA Platinum Edition was definitely the way to go. The receiver and everything is very solid and feels just like the real thing. Its very accurate out of the box after spending a little bit of time zeroizing my red dot optic. I'm running at 7.4v instead of 11.1 and full auto is still very snappy. I never understood people trying to reach insane RPS, especially since the real thing can do only 700rnds/min.

I definitely recommend the M4 stock in order to give you options for replacement. I'm a bigger guy at 6'4, and the buffer tube and M4 stock that comes with the weapon feel like something sized from a toy model. I promptly replaced them with real steel mil-spec M4 parts and it feels much better. Although I'm not sure if its just the tolerances from the replica manufacturing process or not, but I had to go to my local gunsmith to get a replacement castle nut for the mil-spec buffer tube.

For additional magazines, the CYMA's are the only way to go. They are rock solid in the mag well with very little play. I've had no feeding issues thus far.

The only downsides I've found thus far is the weapon can be a little heavy at times. The HK slap charging handle is a nice addition but really is useless for an AEG as it has no function, but does aid in the immersion. Also, the lack of MP5 spec parts for some of the internals can be a little disheartening. It would be really nice to get a Maxx hop-up unit. Lastly, the M-Lok rail on the hand guard is a little small and can lead to clearance issues with multiple accessories depending on what you are running.
