Matrix PP-19 Bizon-2 Airsoft Full Metal AEG Rifle (Package: Gun Only)

"A compact and powerful piece of equipment!

Pro:
Good realistic weight.
Compact profile
Accurate as heck

Con:
Use bizon mags.

"This is easily the most terrific airsoft gun I've ever owned. Reliable, well put together, incredible accuracy, massive rate of fire.

I strongly recommend this pp19 over anything on the market. After sanding down 2 1000 round socom hicaps, this gun empties them down to the last bb. Don't mess with the internals, dress it up, and play airsoft on your own terms.

"Amazing rifle! The gearbox runs smooth, and the rifle is dead accurate. The mag has a very different feel compare to the traditional banana magazines. Will attempt to rig the mag into a grenade launcher!

"I remember the dissaproving looks from my friends when I told them about the S&T Bizon; nonetheless, I still purcased it for its qaulity and price. When we all went to a airsoft shop, their faces went white because of how high it fired - constant 420 fps with .20g. Shooting from 100 ft this thing is a monster, always hit it's target with about a CD size spread. This gun is amazing, I recommend it to anyone because of the price and the qaulity it comes with - externals, internals, and preformance.

"This PP-19 Bizon is an excellent AEG! From the moment I unboxed this beast I was thoroughly impressed. The build quality is excellent; the exterior with the exception of the pistol grip is of metal construction, and is quite heavy for its size as a result. As for the stock, it is very sturdy and has extremely little wobble despite being a swing stock. However, the stock can be hard to lock into the folded position, especially with the magazine in the rifle. True to the real steel, it has a single Russian-style side mount rail. Unfortunately, there is no real front sling mount despite there being one on the stock. There is no battery included with this rifle, but it takes an AK stick-style battery. The battery chamber is very long, so you should have no trouble fitting an oversized battery in this rifle.

The magazine it comes with is a 160-rd midcap of excellent quality. Mine has a rubberized surface, which is very nice since the magazine also functions as a grip. No feeding problems with this magazine, however given the gun's high rate of fire I suggest getting a hicap, specifically the 1000-rd model from the Echo 1 Bizon (I have this magazine and have encountered no problems with compatibility).

Performance-wise, this gun excels at any task! It is truthfully more of a field rifle than a CQB one due to the higher FPS (which should be fixed with a spring swap, don't quote me on this). Accuracy is outstanding, beating some of my higher-end rifles even with their longer inner barrels. The ROF is terrific, and I can honestly say I have not yet encountered even one jam with this gun.

The Pros and Cons outlined:

Pros:

High-quality construction
Metal exterior
Great Internals
Sturdy swivel stock
Excellent magazine
High ROF
High FPS
Reliable
Low price for high quality

Cons:

Weight (full metal has consequences)
Hard to lock stock
Russian-style optic mount (no rail system); not a con to me but may be for some
No front sling mount
Small mag size (buy the Echo 1 magazine)

If you are looking for a ferocious AK-style AEG that stands out from the crowds of boring M4 platforms (or just some serious compact firepower), then you should definitely consider this rifle. Just the sight of it will make your foes tremble! (I know this from personal experience) Go on! What are you waiting for?

"I received this gun in a BOA. This gun is great for the cqb field I play at. Plus it is not the usual Mayo gun everyone else is using.

"the only problem being a big is the bolt that hold the fire selector switch in place became lose after about a month otherwise its a magnificent gun and if anyone could tell me if you had the same problem or how to fix it that would be nice

"Good gun. Stock could be better and mag is not the best. 160 rounds? Surely it could hold a bit more. Other than that it's a great gun.

"This gun is decent, but that stock is awful.

"I received this gun in the latest box of awesomeness, and this gun is overall pretty good. It chronographs in at around 350 fps, which is perfect for CBQ and fairly suitable for woodland battles.

First impressions:
- When I picked the gun up, the first thing I realized was that this thing has some heft to it. Since it is made out of aluminum, and full metal internal parts, this gun is fairly heavy.
- Has a full metal hop up unit, and is very good quality
- Battery space is tiny if using a 9.6v stick type battery
- The folding stock is a bit weird, and is a bit difficult to fold

Pros/Cons

+ The gun is made completely out of metal
+ Great quality internal build
+ Decent ROF and FPS
+ Acceptable accuracy
+ Great trigger response with a 9.6v

- Very bad folding stock
- Very large and bulky mags
- Front heavy
- MADE IN CHINA on the bottom of the lower receiver

All in all a good gun, and would give it a 7.5-8 out of 10 stars

"This gun is awesome, but there are some things you should be aware of as a buyer. First off I would like to say that this gun feels great, shoots great, and brings a unique look to the field in a world that's overpopulated with M4's. The gun feels like it's built sturdy, but it may have a few issues. The stock is difficult to lock when in the folded position. In addition the magazines can be awkward to change, especially if you're in a hurry. Luckily the Matrix extended mag release (available on Evike) made a significant difference with magazine changes. Lastly the magazines are awkward to carry and expensive, same with the pouches. Keep in mind that if you plan on buying this as a primary that the additional cost of magazines and proper pouches is going to add up fast.

Pros:
-Unique
-Built well
-Comfortable to hold
-Mostly metal
-Shoots great

Cons:
-Awkward and expensive magazines
-Awkward magazine changed (can be improved with Matrix mag release)
-Expensive pouches
-Stock is stiff and difficult to lock in folded position.

"The Cyma pp-19 feels sturdy when holding and performs great. It comes stock with a m110 spring, out of the box it chrono'd 425 for me. This means you will probably have to replace the spring to play at some fields. It was also missing 2 screws, one that fixes the outer barrel and upper reciever. The other missing spring was for the trigger plate inside the gearbox (after reading a bit i found out this is common in CYMA aks). Also my folding stock required a little filing to get to snap correctly. I rate the S&T bizon 3 stars despite these concerns because it performs extremely well for its price point. I would not recommend to anyone who is not comfortable with reassembly!

"I've had this gun for about half a year now Works great still. Everyone i know has told me what a great looking gun, so if you are looking for a gun to show off this is the one.

Pros
-Good FPS 345-366
-Durable because of all the metal
-Folding stock (mine wouldn't fold stock was on wrong/ sat to low)
1,000 rd high cap

Cons
Folding stock was on wrong so it wouldn't fold
-The pin that holds the folding stock when folded if it comes out the whole front part falls off just leaving the barrel
-mags holders you have to special order and its like $20 per mag holder and you can only find hi caps

"Mine had a wobbly loose outer barrel, and while the stock on mine snapped in fine, it was a loose fit. The highcap mags for the Echo 1 do fit, but are very tight, feed fine. Internals shot fine. Not the best bizon i've had my hands on , rated below the JG and Echo1 plastic models.
