Pretty good for the price although after about a month the charging handle broke so I couldn't use it as an airsoft gun. After around 4 months, the stock finally gave out but I definitely recommend if you plan to use it for cosplay

Well, I found this looking for an electric gun, and the description says nothing about it being spring, so I thought'd I'd try it out. Alas, it's a piece of crap, shoots slow, the stock is no stuck on it, and it just feels cheaply made. So, if I can get this stock off then i'm going to return it. Otherwise ya know, i'ma give it to someone or just break it... I don't know yet.

I bought this to get a rifle feel when plinking around the house. I also wanted something that could shoot accurately at a distance. At this price point, looks didn't matter so much to me.Pros:The gun is weighted well and has a good feel to it. It looks quite good, which was a surprise. Very easy to cock, and seems to have decent power. Also holds a lot of bbs in the magazine. It has two sights for light and heavy bbs. Seems accurate as far as I can tell. Feels more durable than I expected, seems like you'd have to be quite rough on it to break it.Cons:I couldn't tell how accurate it is due to the pinhole sight. I'm not used to that kind and can't seem to focus on it well enough to know how centered I am. The magazine also requires some rigorous shaking to refill the chamber of bbs.Overall, it fit my needs but has me wishing for a regular sight or the option to add a cheesy scope, red-dot or laser.

As a note, I refinish these weapons as props for film/television work. In this price range I am looking for something that will pass as the real thing in medium and long range shots.That said, the details on this are excellent, and it can be used even for fairly close shots. Minimal touch ups were needed to make it look like an authentic weapon. I'm fairly certain the mold was cast from an actual weapon. Even the magazine is perfectly sized (a usual flaw with replicas that fire BBs, the magazine is sized too small and needs to be replaced or altered in order to make an accurate prop- not needed in this case.) Also, the plastic has a small amount of tooth to it, which makes it hold spray paint nicely with little prep work.ONE NOTE: The description says this is an M16A2. Actually, it is an M16A1 (which is what is in the picture, just the label on the box and here is inaccurate.) . If you want the M16A2 replica, then order the M16A1 from the same company. But that small detail in no way diminishes what a fine replica this is.

Btw Im her sonI just got this product a few days ago and it works great. I've read the reviews of others and some of them are accurate, such as its a very easily brakeable gun and that it doesn't come with all it promisses, such as the 1,000 bbs, it only comes with a small bag. It didnt come with any grip or screwdriver either. But one good thing is that the delivery, for me, was unbelievably fast. It came sooner than my other gun i had purchased on amazon using 2 day shipping. Even though I had used standard shipping for this gun. But for the record it could have been because of location, I really dont know. It's only spring loaded, so it isnt automatic, even thought it has the switch on the side that has the option so dont be getting it for any fast paced game. That brings up another subject, how good it is in combat, unless you are playing a slow paced game, i wouldnt use it in combat because ofthe way you load it to fire. All in all i would use this gun for show, not in game action, especially because of how easily it could brake. Hope this review helped.

Rewrite of my original review:I thought this was a great right out of the box, and after 4 months of heavy use, I still love it and will be ordering several more as gifts for each of my nephews. I have had no difficulties in being very accurate (This rifle does look fairly close to a real M16/AR-15, but it does have a few flaws. This gun is virtually the exact same length as my compact Stag AR with a barely legal barrel, 2" suppresor, and the 6 position stock extended. The biggest difference is that the solid stock of this one is longer, the barrel length is shorter, and the toy is quite a bit lighter.All in all, I'm dead serious when I say this thing is truly worth every penny I paid for it, and I would very highly recommend this toy to any one of my friends. How else can you go plinking without leaving the luxury of the apartment complex, trailer park, or other municipal and homeowners laws for less than fifty bucks?

Looks great until you open the box. Feels cheap. Broke upon first shot. Spring in the cocking mechanism broke so it would just slide in and out freely. On the second shot the trigger broke and fell out. Big waste of money. Would not get this gun even if it was free. Do NOT buy. FAIL OF THE YEAR! For the same price you could buy a durable pistol.
