"Got this a week back, and I just got to say this Rifle is pure awesome! I honestly found only two problems with it, a bit of paint scratched off on the top rail which actually makes it look better and the battery kind of sucks, but its easily replaceable so even thats no big deal. More of a shooting at targets gun though, I probably wouldn't take it out onto a field to use as getting at the magazine and cranking can be a pain. I definatly recommend it for the hardcore Aliens Fan though!

"Pros.
Looks amazing
High fps right out of box
LCD counter works
Upgradeability is easy
Manual shows how to take the gun apart
Heavy but light enough to carry around all day
Just feels amazing
Cons.
Pistol grip is loose (easily fixed)
Heat sink wobbles (another easy fix with manual)
No built in strap rings
Would have been nice to have battery area bigger to fit better battery
The over/under grenade launcher slide is a little loose for my taste
Not really a big deal but the shotgun cartridge placed in gun for looks should have been a grenade shell
All in all I rate this gun 5/5 because 99% of the gun is amazing! Biggest issue I have is the battery area size and grenade launcher slide. Still an amazing buy compared to the old TM custom job that would cost $800+. You can't beat this deal for such an epic gun! BUY IT!

"Just bought this today (01/03/2013) WOW holy alien pulse rifle batman this is one of the coolest airsoft/replica guns i have ever handled, great weight feels real, almost all of the body is metal, and what isn't metal is some of the highest grade abs polymer i have seen.
Digital ammo counter is by far one of the coolest features i've seen on an AEG. As a prop weapons builder myself I can safely say this has to be one of the most accurate replicas of a movie gun ever produced. Shoots wicked fast and very accurate, fully adjustable hop up, holds 195 BB's and has an extremely durable full-metal extendable butt stock. Wether you are a hardcore airsofter or just a movie prop collector, this is by far one of the most impressive AEGs out there and is easily worth the ticket price.
The only minor cons are the non functional underslung grenade launcher (not shotgun) as everyone says, you should all watch aliens again if you cant remember that (I personally don't care about this feature being non functional) and also the mag release switch can be a bit tricky, apart from that gear up, and get ready to go on a bug hunt, coz this thing FREAKIN ROCKS!
Make sure you buy a lithium ion battery as the one that it comes with sucks

"Hey everyone - first of all, let me just thank thanks to EVIKE for offering such an awesome item at such a reasonable price!
Ever since I saw ALIENS in 1986, owning a Pulse Rifle replica has been one of the things I've wanted most. So when I saw this, it was impossible to pass up. Let me tell you, for anyone interested in a replica that both looks and feels like the real deal - buy this NOW!!! Weighing in at 13lbs, and with most of the parts that should be metal actually are metal, and those that aren't are very nicely made - this gun has amazing realism! Total nerdgasm! LOL.
Seriously though - nicely done. Everything was just as advertised (does come with the orange rings on the barrels for safety awareness while out in public or in use, but for anyone looking to remove them, the Internet offers easy info on that).
The battery that came with it works fine. Charge it like EVIKE recommends before ever using it - 5-6 hours the first time, and you won't be disappointed.
I really love this product. It's VERY well made, and is perfect for either the collector or the airsoft gang.
The only negative side that I have with it is VERY minor - because of the design of the magazine, it can be a little...challenging at times to get the magazine inserted correctly. But seriously, that's it. This thing is totally cool and works like a charm!
Get one while you can!!!
Oh! And to EVIKE, I really appreciated the very detailed breakdown booklet that came with it. For an unexpected suprise, that went a long way with me. If I ever needed to totally take the gun down to it's bare parts, this booklet will make that super easy. Thanks again! Very happy with this!!
Thanks EVIKE!!

"I am a huge Aliens nerd! I have a complete Colonial Marines armor set and Iv been using a solid non working pulse rifle replica as my prop gun. This gun blows the replica out of the water! Size action detail durability accuracy rate of fire OMG! My prop gun is now the wall hanger this baby is in action! Im not much of airsofter but i would not hesitate to use it in a game its VERY ACCURATE and has some distance to it. I will be at the release of Aliens:Folonial Marines for sure wearing my armor and carrying this baby for sure!
by Mike L. on 04/20/2016
"Tried this gun at Evike.com super store. Its sick! Very detailed replica of the pulse rifle. It use hicap, long barrel, can be upgraded fully and not too heavy. I probably won't use it in a game if I buy it since its so nice, but there shouldn't be any reason for it to cost you tactical advantages in a game.
by James T. on 04/20/2016
"This is the most amazing thing I have ever own and fired. Did you know this gun is as milsim as any others? Try googling Pulse rifle, this is modeled after a real bullet firing gun rather than just a movie prop!! Or they built it after the movie maybe?
by Peyton W. on 04/20/2016
"AN AWESOME BUY!
If you complain about the shotgun function being none functional you are out of your minds. There are no Alien pulse rifle in the world that is off the shelf with a working shotgun, besides, I prefer my battery going there anyways over a shotgun that I will never use. I am however, hoping to rig a madbull grenade launcher in there as my next project. The previous model is retailed well over $1000 without the quality, performance and durability of this model by Matrix. This Matrix model wins in all directions, angles and areas.
Now, lets talk about the gearbox and firing, it is far more than an amazing wall decorative piece. Although I can see many buying it for that purpose. The thompson internal looks like it may be OEM by CYMA or King Arms. Metal gearbox, metal gears, all nicely built with a very strong torque motor. The rate of fire is about 15 rounds per second with my 9.6V battery and it is DEAD ACCURATE I tell you.
The bullet counter works like a charm. Probably the coolest thing on the field if you are out there to show off.
Think twice about hanging this on the wall, I have used it in many CQB matches and this rifle have served me well in both battle advantages and attention grabbing. After-all, it is an Alien Pulse Rifle!!

"I used to be a big airsoft player, and i still collect rifles if i can. I was injured as a rescue worker on 9/11, at the world trade center, and lost a good deal of lung function. I would love to play more airsoft, but i'll have to settle for my old collection. I also have a collection of alien memorabilia, from the movie franchise. Since becoming disabled, i don't have the money to collect that stuff anymore. I just wanted you guys to know that i appreciate a company selling a more affordable version of the M41a pulse rifle. Maybe someday i can buy one again!! You have given me hope!!
by David S. on 04/20/2016
"As a fan of the Aliens M41A Pulse Rifle, I have been waiting quite a while for an affordable, operable example of this movie icon to become available. This release by Matrix has definitely satisfied that desire with a fine product that is accurate and robust.
This gun shoots with all the power and accuracy you expect from the Thompson, which of course is what it's built around. The ammo counter works flawlessly and has an on/off switch in the magazine well to conserve the 9v battery (also housed in the well) when not in use.
No instructions. I did not consider this a problem, as I was able to easily figure out all functions.
Overall I give this gun a 9/10.

"As both a real firearms enthusiast as well as a hardcore Alien franchise fan, this unit is GREAT.
The magazine is the only real disappointment with the whole thing as it is a real pain.
If you have a bit of mechanical aptitude, you can shave a little here and there to make the magazine
go in and out much more easily.
The orange caps are glued on tight and all the removal methods I've tired didn't work.
I ended up simply masking the unit and painting the orange caps with a heat resistant flat black.
It definitely added a bit more realism to the unit.
