Matrix Special Edition AK Tactical Airsoft AEG (Color: Black / 400 FPS / Basic Battery Package)

"I bought this rifle as it is the look I was going for. Rifle arrived in good condition and is as advertised. Good budget AEG to start your build or as a loaner for a buddy or backup gun

"This is a great entry level AK with a modern look if you are not into the AK74 or AK47 traditional look. As an big AK fan, I have them all and this is my CQB go to rifle!

"Great gun if your starting off it’s reliable and can stand a decent fight with co2 and high power AEG’s I would recommend buying it as you’re first airsoft gun.
The only down sides of this gun are the battery house is kinda small and if the bb’s don’t feed properly it can slightly jam but I was able to fix this by removing the mag and firing at the ground on full auto. Other than that it’s a good gun.

"Amazing rifle, highly recommend!

"Shoots well and far. Love the tactical look. Rails are made of sturdy plastic and fit whatever attachments you want. Would highly recommend as a beginner gun

Pros: shoots accurately
High cap mag
Rails for attachments
Lightweight

Cons:
Upper receiver is made of metal so it adds to the weight
Battery compartment only fits stick and small 7.4 lipo batteries

"Bought tan version
Pros
Feels very nice
Got a long stick matrix 10v battery fits perfectly
Shoots great with .23, very fast and far

Cons
Haven’t used in battle..Hope to report back

"Received this in a BOA and I am glad this came in. I would never have bought it if it hadn't due to I don't run AKs.

It is a well built rifle all around. Mostly a polymer build for the body except for the battery cover and charging handle plates. Because of this, the weight is great to handle this rifle. Even though it is light, it does not feel like a cheap replica. The tan version is more of a dark flat earth tone and looks great with tan or black attachments.

I have changed the butt stock to a Magpul MOE replica and it fit very snug with zero wobble. The original butt stock did have a slight wobble but it functioned fine although it was a bit wide for my preference. I will be buying a plug in style mosfet to run 11.1 Lipos since many reviews reference its durability/ability to do so. I have no doubt this AEG will last.

Overall, for the price and quality, I recommend this rifle.

"Great AK for the price, definitely worth the purchase!

The only upgrades done to mine is a better motor and being wired to deans
Solid gun with no issues after running it with an 11.1 lipo its whole life

Pros:
Looks amazing
Shoots hard
Handles an 11.1 after years of use
Lots of rail space
ambi charging handle
AK

Cons:
flashider is a pain to get off
in stock form, the gun seems a little wobbly or not fully tightened down (fixed with locktite)
no traditional ak scope mounting system on side of reciever (fixed on mine with 3d printed part, but not a real issue as there is the front rail system)

"Wife won this gun in a Box of Awesomeness. This gun is fantastic. It looks really nice. Seems to be very reliable and accurate. It has a ambidextrous charging handle which will poke into you while it is on a sling.

"Just got this in the mail the other day, after reading other reviews I was concerned about assembling the charging handle section because I’m completely blind, but it was surprisingly straightforward. First, take your charging handle and the long metal rod, making sure the spring stays behind the charging handle, put the rod through the hole in the right side of the charging handle. Next, take the rod and insert the end of it into the hole in the right side of the receiver when looking towards the front sight from the rear. The block of metal at the other end should be aligned with the grooves at the very back of your receiver. Push the rod all the way forward into the receiver until there is room to slide the dust cover release, that funny metal block, into the grooves. After that, simply place your dust cover and you should be good to go.

"This gun is amazing I just got it today and out of the box, it shoots nice even though it’s not as good as my high speed m4 build, this thing shoots amazing for just being out of the box. It’s a very good beginner gun and if your like me and want to upgrade the gun,it is upgradable.

Pros
1.Shoots very far
2.Hop up is amazing
3.Decent trigger response
4.Decent rate of fire for out of the box

Cons
1.Difficult to put on charging handle
2.Difficult to put in the mag

"Got this for my first Airsoft gun and it did not disappoint, I’m now building into this gun to make it even better, it feels great out of the box and is a great first build gun if you want to change parts in it. 10/10 for me!

"Does anyone know what the diameter of the muzzle is? thought about upgrading it

"Needs a much stronger charging handle spring to make it more fun also it could use a scope mount

"Great gun! I was going to get an amplifier for it, but it sounds amazing out of the box! Shoots really far with barely any hop up. It shoots nice and hard with .2s. Great buy! If your on the fence just buy it!
