GSG Tactical G14 Carbine Electric Blowback AEG by ARES (Color: Flat Dark Earth / M-LOK)

"I have to say that I am quite impressed with this gun. The quality of the polymer body construction is solid. It is way better than your cheap glossy abs plastic. The select fire switch has a 2 rd burst and the trigger response is respectable for a 7.4v lipo. The clacking noise while on automatic fire is very satisfying. This is a lot more ergonomic than the g36 counterpart. It’s more comfortable as well. The sound of the gearbox is smooth which I did not expect. I would leave this gun stock in exception to the hop up. There always room for improvement. My only dislike about the gun is that, it’s very picky on mags and the barrel threads is too big for aftermarket attachments. All my cyma mid cap does not fit properly. Thankfully I have an unbranded high cap that does fit. I don’t even know who makes it. As for the flash hider, I’m just gonna have to paint it because none of my tracer unit fits. I was very disappointed on that part. It could have been a perfect gun. In conclusion I would definitely play with this out of the box. It’s such a fun gun and the aesthetic is great. The mlok version is miles cooler than the original. I would recommend this to all g36 fans .

"This gun is very well made and shimmed out of the box. It has an ETU so your gun won't jam up and increases semi auto speed, but not customizable
The guns motor does heat up due to its active braking very fast but not hot enough to be an issue. I would recommend a barrel and hopup upgrade with this gun. At 50 meters it had a grouping of about .75 ft. Blowback is enough that you have to hold the gun correctly but you won't feel it or notice it in game. You can also disable It if its not your thing
Would recommend

"I've been running this as my main for two years now. I am loving it. The only issue I had with it so far taking it to many skirmishes and one big event is that the bucking broke on me this past week. It was an easy fix and well within normal wear and tear.

This is a girthy fellow. I always get lots of looks and comments on every field I play at. This one isn't a common one so it's always fun to run something different.

I mentioned the bucking blew out on me, I did replace the entire hop-up. The G36 hop-up unit fit just fine and seems to be doing the job. This one is really easy to take apart. A few pins and a couple screws will easily get you into the gearbox. The quick change spring, all you need to access are two body pins and a single flat head screw. Super easy. Only takes a few minutes which is great for indoor/outdoor games. It did shoot a bit spicy out of the box so I did put in a less powerful spring right away to make it field legal for me.

The Kick from the EBB feels awesome. You have great feedback when pulling the trigger that you seldom get with an AEG.

A small note on magazines, TM compatible high caps work fine but did have some compatibility issues finding mid-caps. The Matrix 50rd Mid-caps work and feed great. None of the 120rd mid-caps fit. I plan to try to modify them to fit but haven't tried yet.

I wanted a G36 but when I was disappointed by the feature set of like-priced G36 on the market, this had everything and more at a lower price. Internals have held up well, aftermarket parts are not hard to find. If you are looking for a unique beginner replica, this one is excellent. It feels solid and is very accurate once the hop-up is dialed in even right out of the box.

I cannot shower this with enough praise. I have had nothing but positive experiences using this. Excellent all around.
