"I got mine out of a Open Batch box and it was in pretty solid condition strait out of the box. I fielded it for the first time and it quit working. Ended up sending it back twice, just to later learn that the hop up was adjusted wrong and the battery included with mine, didn't put out enough power to make it function correctly. I wouldn't have payed Evike's original asking price for it, but as for getting it from a Open Batch. I am 100% satisfied.

"As my first gun this isn't coming from a lot of experience, but its pretty nice. My favorite thing about this gun is the way it feels. Its, in my opinion, very ergonomic. Iron sights aren't hard to aim down, even when wearing mask/eye protection. The only thing wrong with it out of the box were the iron sights. The rear sight came out of its base when trying to adjust the elevation, and the actual sight was stuck in a half way position (as there are two options for the iron sights), so I had to use pliers to get it in an upright position. Besides that its an awesome gun, light weight, feels really nice, and shoots well.

"Okay,So First off let me say that this is my first gun.

PROS:
Does come with a 1200MAH Battery and Charger.
Cheek Riser for optics
Stock has 6 Positions
Stock is foldable
No Wires when stock folds
Decent internals
Lots of 20mm Rail Space
Heavy(could be a con)Eieghs about 12 Pounds.
CONS:
Stock has no lock when folded so it flops around
Hopup is not the greastest
Pistol Grip gets hot after firing for a while.

Other than that this is a excellent gun.
Why should I choose a SCAR-H over a M4?
I see way too many M4s and its a SCAR.Whats not to love about it

"I bought this gun about a 2 weeks ago. The shipping was a little slow, but it was well worth the wait. I recommend this gun to intermidiate to advanced players. The price is amazing, I bought this gun when it was on sale for $150. The gun itself is heavy but very durable. It comes with two high capacity magazines, a standard wall charger, and a 8.4 battery. The stock is adjustable and is equipped with a rising cheek rest. The bolt locks in place for an easy hop-up adjustment. The lower receiver is high-impact polymer and the upper-receiver is full metal. I recommend using .25 or .28 bbs. The battery compartment is in the stock. Which can fold and lock in place. The stock has no wires showing when folded

Pros
- not an m4
-decent trigger response
-easy open battery compartment
-long range
-very accurate
-very durable
Cons
-sometimes when you are shooting on semi-auto the trigger will lock, but all you need to do is put it to full auto, then put it back to semi-auto and return to your firing again.
-the gun is a little bit heavy but nothing extreme

Overall this gun is one of the best I have ever owned. I highly recommend buying this gun.

"First of all, this gun out of the box looks and feels great. In the box you should recieve 2 hi cap mags, one black and one large gray, a super small 8.4v 1200 mah battery, wall charger, barrel extension, cheapo plastic foregrip, and an unjamming rod like all guns should have. The hi caps arent bad, but i gave them away because midcaps are better. The weight and feel of this gun is pretty close to the real steel version, and during field play it made my arm a challenge during cqb play. This gun is not ready for cqb out of the box though, because it shoots too hot for even normal fields standards. I had to buy a new spring for it just to even use it. The gun is of excellent build quality, and the only wobble i have found is the extending portion of the buttstock when it is fully extended.

I cant say how good the range is with it stock because i immediately attatched the barrel extender and a mock suppressor with a 450mm 6.03 toghtbore and a new h nub, but with all these improvements plus the guns original functionality, it is an absolute beast. Even with the crappy 6mm proshop 140 midcaps that i got off of this site, this gun had no feeding issues. The hop up is different from an m4, but the design of it leaves less room for feeding issues because it is pushed all the way onto the mag.
The gearbox has high quality gears that dont look like theyre going to shimm on you for a long while.

I have had 2 problems with this gun other than fps. 1st is the stock rear iron sight. Yes, it is the iron sight that is supposed to be on the gun, but it leaves you with very little room to even see the front irons. 2nd is the lower reciever. It is good quality abs and it wont break on you. But the seems. THE SEEMS. They are very distinct and basically go around the entire lower reciever, and they stick out and scratch the hell out of your hand inbetween the thumb and index finger while using it. This is not a hard fix though. All you need is any type of file and the common sense not to scratch you gun up. They are very easy to file down and although the seems are still visible, you can only really see them if yourr checking out the gun up close and personal.

One thing that may be taken as a con is the battery compartment. This WILL NOT fit anything larger than the battery it comes with, because it barely fits the batter itself. You have to extend the stock to even get it in there. But i like the look of a battery pouch and its not the end of the world for me, because now i can change the look of the gun, and the battery power too. You just have to be careful with the wires and feeding them outside of the stock. If you lay them flat and gently bring the cheek riser back down, the plastic should slide and bend over the wire, causing no damage. But you just do what i did and try it whatever way it goes first, youre gonna ruin the heat shrink on your wires, eventually leaving them exposed. Be smart guys.

So in conclusion,
PROS: ▪ sick look, as all scars have
▪free barrel extension that screws on to 14mm - (ccw) threads [forgot to mention that, its great]
▪amazing performance and inmer build quality
▪awesome external feel (except for the seems)
▪good weight (may be a con for some people, 8.5 lbs isnt the best for speedsofting)
▪perfect functionality and rof
▪the sound it makes is somewhat unique, and it has a really good snap to it
▪trademarks on the upper reciever are awesome, and go well if you make it two tone dark earth like i did.

CONS:▪ minor stock wobble on the extending portion
▪THE SEEMS
▪fps is too hot
▪ rear iron sight is hard to see through
▪disassembly is impossible without an allen key, but that also makes it wobble less so take that as what you will.

This gun is great, and is perfect for experienced airsofters like myself and others who want to get the most out of their primary, and is a great alternative to spending 300+ on a stock toy gun. Id also recommend it for intermediate players as well, but not so much for newbies just because you need some knowlege of how to keep from breaking this gun because of doing the wrong things to it and man handleing it. Treat this gun with care and respect, and this gun will make your enemies fear you. Buy this badass.

"Amazing gun only con is the stock brackets broke really easy and my stock is really wiggly
by karen e. on 08/01/2015
"This gun is amazing for the price you pay! I bought this gun for $189 and was highly satisfied with my purchase. This gun shoots between 380 and 410 fps, along with a high rate of fire, The trigger is very responsive and smooth with a 9.6 volt valken battery(ordered separately) and when switched to automatic the grouping is incredible. This gun shot straight at 150 ft no problem. The internals and upper are made of metal and the lower receiver is a quality polymer. The stock is also a high quality polymer which folds and adjusts easy. My order was placed on 7-28 and arrived on 7-31 with ups ground shipping. The package included two solid hi-cap magazines, the gun, 9.6 volt custom battery and charger, and a cleaning rod.
If I had the choice to do this again i would still choose the Echo1 ASC-H

If you get this gun I would recomend getting a spair batterie for it. Its a great gun for its price. Get it!!!

"Fantastic purchase, Holy Cow deal was a no-brainer two $20 magazines for just $5 plus the two magazines the gun came with. Great accuracy and high FPS make this weapon great for medium to long range engagements. Front and rear flip up iron sights are sturdy. Comes with black flash hider to replace orange tip. Unjamming rod, battery and charger all included. Ambidextrous safety and mag release allows for easy shooting for both right and left handed shooters. Folding stock which does lock in place securely and , as well as adjustable cheek riser and six position collapsable stock make for a very comfortable shooting experience. Rail mounts on the top, bottom and sides leaves plenty of room for customization and attachments.

Only complaints are somewhat fragile wiring in the stock combined with the tight battery compartment. Be careful not to shove battery in and sever the wiring connections. (Nothing a little electrical tape cant fix) and locking bolt to expose hop up can be a bit finicky at times.

Overall a fantastic gun, well worth the money.

"I just got this gun less than a week ago, and it has already been put to the test. Me and my team went to this huge two day event. The first game was a night game. Right off the bat it jammed and wouldn't shoot. I was literally ready to rage. However after some easy 15 minute fixes I got it working again. Let me tell you once it got going it didnt stop. I was hitting people left and right, and the fps was fantastic. I truly recommend this gun to anybody. An added bonus was the holy cow deal. For 5 bucks I got 2 more 500 rd high capacity mags. Now I have 4 total. This was worth every penny and I plan on upgrading this in the future.

Pros: Great look and very sturdy.
Amazing FPS
Very very accurate
Rate of fire(I was using a 9.6v battery though)
All the features. i.e. Cheek rest, folding stock and more.
Bang for your buck- You get the gun, battery, four mags(counting the holy cow deal) and flash hider all for only $270.00

Cons: Mag is slightly wobbly- Nothing to stress about
Getting that flash hider off. It is not an easy task.
It is a little tight getting the battery in.

"I got this gun out of a Batch Open Box deal so right off the top I wasn't expecting to much, and ended up sending it back twice. It got fixed (ish). First of all, the hop up came adjusted wrong and in turn, jammed the gun horribly. Fixed by un-jamming the gun and adjusting the hop up to a correct height. Second is the stock. The stock wobbles (Probably because it folds) but as for mine, the folding stock doesn't lock. The locking clip attached to the main body is to high for the clip on the stock to reach. Other than the jamming when I first got the gun, the gun works great. I use it as a loaner for when friends want to play and they seem to enjoy it. I wouldn't have payed the original price for it, but as for a Batch gun, I think it was worth every penny.

"This gun is a good gun but the hop up was messed up when I got it you might have to put a little money into it but it's worth it it has great build quality and is sturdy just bad hop up
by Daniel M. on 12/27/2015
"This gun is a very good gun. the internals are great except the hop up which will over hop even when its all the way down. The selector switch on mine at least is hard to use because the 2 sides don't more together and you have to go past the stop to get both selector switches to select the fire mode. Has some decent weight to it. The folding stock does not snap in place when folded in. Evike says that it doesn't come with a battery but mine did and it also came with 2 mags which is great. Great gun for the price but does still have flaws which can be over come, But overall an amazing preforming gun!
by cole m. on 11/26/2015
"Great gun for it's price(on sale for $199), however the gearbox was a pain to take out and open up so unless you know your guns I wouldn't recommend opening this gun up. The battery compartment is a little cramped so I would not buy the battery down in the customers also purchased section as when I used it the battery got stuck and I had to take apart the stock to get it out. It does come with a little cheap wall charger and test battery (wouldn't recommend using them for anything other than testing) also it came with 2x mags. Overall, I enjoyed it, but ended up sending it back for the APS M4.
