"Amazing side-arm, can't beat it for the price. There is a good variety of external customization options for this pistol, the style of it is absolutely beautiful, and the performance is great for any match. Thanks!

"As my entry into airsoft, I was pleasantly suprised with how well this pistol performs! I was able to compete perfectly fine along other players with full size aegs at my nearby outdoor field, not to mention this thing just feels so fun to shoot! The aftermarket for this gun is insane and I can't wait to start creating my own build!

"AWESOME gun and I 100% get why it's so hyped!!!
I put a bifrost tracer unit on this thing and I mainly use it for target practice and plinking since I don't have the time to go to a range and shoot my real firearm but wow this is just as much fun and oh my god at night the tracers are so cool!!!
I agree with 99% of all the other reviews here regarding quality, price, accuracy, and reliability. Only thing to know is that YES, you need to lube the gun before you shoot because I checked and yep, it was dry inside :/
Also, the rails are included and as mentioned in other reviews: are inside the mag well. In the US, you get a bright orange thread protector which is cool.
The market for aftermarket upgrades to this gun is massive but not obvious at first since you wont find a lot here on evike or popular airsoft sites.
There are CNC milled uppers for this gun which are sexy-looking at Airsoft World.net but you'll definitely pay good money ($250 after tax and shipping)

"Great gun, reasonable price, wide aftermarket compared to some pistols, and I'm so happy it uses TM style mags. Although it is specified underneath the picture, I'm still quite surprised that it doesn't come with the 2 rails that the imported ones come with, but can't complain, I'm so hyped I was able to get the gun after waiting for a restock of the black variant. And being a person who fiddles and upgrades aag's, I'm glad ill be able to expand this gun with aftermarket parts. The only problem I've heard of was that a big batch of the gun's piston heads was not lubed out of the factory, which led to guns being destroyed. That is definitely something to look for when picking one up. Otherwise, this is one of the best airsoft gas pistols I've purchased or even used. Quick, buy one!

"Got lucky and picked th elast one up at my local shop. The gun is super cheap, and worth every penny, the body is cheap, but it's a $100 gun. Its compatible with most glock parts so it can be upgraded. The aap-01 is 100% plastic but it is surprisingly durable, this thing performs as good as my rifle, and has a powerful hopup. If you can get you hands on one of these for less than $135 id pick it up.
Pros:
- Amazing performance
- FULL AUTO! (25~ Rps)
- Compatible with most glock parts
- Some of the nicest sights ive ever seen / used
Cons:
- constructed of plastic
- sounds kinds lame

"The gun is pretty reliable when lubed well, if not the slide can’t keep up with the rps
Pros:
Automatic
340 - 350 FPS with standard gas
Accurate
Has good iron sights
Rails included
Mostly metal internals
Cons:
Body is plastic
Sounds cheap
Decent amount of gas per mag (semi)
Overall, I suggest this 100% if you can get your hands on one, they are very upgradable, but the upgrades can get spendy.

"Great gun, super reliable.

"BEFORE YOU BUY: BEWARE OF UNOFFICIAL IMPORT NOT HANDLED BY ASG!! THESE DO NOT COME WITH OPTIONAL RAILS OR THE ORIGINAL THREAD PROTECTOR!! THEY GLUE A 3-D PRINTED MUZZLE ON THAT IS DIFFICULT TO REMOVE WITHOUT DAMAGING YOUR THREADS!!
That being said, wow! This pistol comes stock with wonderful fiber optic irons, a sturdy magazine, comfortable ergonomics, and a devastating fire rate. The feel of this pistol is unreal, despite how cheap it looks out of box. The polymer looks cheap, the parts that are metal look cheap, and the spring is light. However, once you get your hands on the actual gun and fiddle with it, the gun feels like a premium product.
The only gripe I have with the gun is the fire rate. It is actually too high for my taste, but this is only my opinion. I will be getting aftermarket parts and accessories once they are available on evike. I hope that evike will eventually only sell the official ones handled by ASG and send the rails or store credit to those who got the unofficial import. It would suck if we would have to pony up another 10 or so bucks just to get something the product should've already come with.
Once again, this pistol is fantastic, fast, and fun. Beware of the unofficial imports, and be careful when taking the printed muzzle off if you can't wait for the official ones. Action Army Company's first pistol is a quality affordable option for airsofters of all levels.

"It’s a great little pistol for $100, although it’s polymer, it’s of a pretty good quality. I, like others have been shipped a glued on orange thread protector. I was scared that if I attempted to take the protector off I would ruin the threads underneath, but unlike what others stated, the protector is of a different plastic. So i was able to remove it without causing any structural damage. Also there are a lot of people stating that this gun is not compatible with elite force/umarex glock mags. This is a lie as I own 5 ef/umarex mags and they all fit fine and are able to fire a full mags worth and then some in the gun. Obviously glock 19 mags won’t work(too short). Tldr: it’s a good gun for beginners and those looking for something unique, has mag compatibility and is worth the price.

"Great pistol so far im sure i have yet to break in the hop up. but its already one of my favorites, my only problem with it is in there picture it shows the stock metal muzzle protector painted orange when i got a not good looking 3d printed orange cap which is also glued on there permanently so i have to figure that out so i can use my tracer units.

"I own one of these, its an awesome gun. I run mine on HPA, using an Tappairsoft mag adapter. It runs flawlessly, even has a slightly higher rps at 115psi.

"Great gun but the valve on the mag broke for some reason keeps getting stuck on the green gas cannister and I know it's not cause I'm doing it wrong because i do it the same way on my other mags and their fine. The gun is very snappy and really quick in full auto it's also very easy to put in aftermarket parts because of the simple method of removing the bolt and barrel 9/10

"Ive had the gun for 2 months now probably only got like 1000 rounds out of gun and the magazine does not hold green gas anymore ive took the mag apart and checked the o rings on the valve and o ring inside the mag to check if the o rings were dry or cracked and they were fine i relubed em still dose not work overall guns shoots amazing and is a good quality gun

"Awesome 100 dollar sidearm. I've only been able to shoot it once so far, but everything works as advertised. Full auto is obviously loads of fun but not at all practical on a pistol, and wastes green gas. Shoots hard, pretty accurate at short and medium range, haven't really been able to tell with long range. The one weird thing i found was that while it says that tac rails weren't included, mine came with them. Idk if Evike just does a bit of trolling or whatever lol, but i ain't gonna complain. Getting them screwed on was a tedious process that shouldn't have taken the time it did or the help of my dad. But they work. Extra mags are a little overpriced, but that goes without saying for airsoft sidearms. The guns has a nice weight to it. It feels externally plasticy, but its durable and feels solid. The magazine gives the handle some extra weight to complement the metal inner parts.
I'd say one of the few things i don't like about the firearm itself is the selector switch. Its inside the gun, so you have to lock the slide back and manually change it. Which sucks because i can't ever tell if im pulling or pushing the right way or not so i have to look at it which points the barrel towards me and that's a big no no. I know there are 3D printed parts to fix that, but the fact that it couldn't have been put on the back of the slide in the first place sucks a bit.
Worth the 130 (160 if you count the green gas) bucks for the gun and one spare mag, don't think it gets much better than this
