CYMA Standard RPK LMG Airsoft AEG Rifle w/ Steel Bipod and Real Wood Furniture (Package: Add 7.4v LiPo Battery + Charger)

"this gun is alsome i got it a week ago and the only con that it had was that the fuse was blown but that was a easy fix you can get them chep at any atto shop. other than that its a great gun and i like everything about.

pros
great fps
great rps
full steal body
real wood
not as hevy as an m249 or a m60
great range
very accurate

cons
bad fuse
the back sight came off but it pops back in place.

"Great gun overall. Solid externals, even better internals. Mine shot 470 FPS out of the box. Put an m100 spring in this bad boy and it is shooting 380FPS. The ROF with the lower spring is about 15ish. Only problem I ever had was during a game the motor mount came loose and I had to go screw it back in (the screw in the bottom of the pistol grip for those who don't know). has the proper beefed up RPK reciever. Trademarks look cool I'm not going to be a whiner and say that it sucks because the caliber is wrong. Its an airsoft gun. Only real Con is the bipod IS pot metal, rear sight is super wobbley, and it is VERY finicky with magazines.

Pros:

Steel Body
about 10 pounds (compare it to a 15 pound M249 or 20 pound M60)
Realistic beefed up reciever (just like the real thing)
Great FPS
Amazing Internals
Wood is solid as a rock
Range is anywhere from 1-200ft EASILY
Hopup is metal

Cons:

Pot metal bipod
Rear sight is wobbley
Very picky with magazines. Will take most AK-74 magazines
Incompatible with most drum magazines. Either don't fit or too wobbley for reliable feeding.

"This is a sweet gun. With a 650mm 6.03 JBU barrell it is shooting 420 fps with .20 bbs. The bipod is rugged as well as the rest of the gun. The battery compartment in the stock is definately a tight fit. I purchased from Evike an Echo1 11.1v lipoly battery (Lipo-E1-Lipo02) as well as a Firefox 7.4v lipoly battery (BAT-Lipo74V-002) for use. Both batteries fit, with the Echo1 battery just barely fitting, but it does. I also purchased the Matrix 3000 round drum (CMAG-SC-AK-1) and this thing rocks. The drum mag has no trouble keeping up with the rate of fire when using the 11.1 lipoly. The 800 round magazine that comes with the gun will shoot approximately 1/3 of the mag before it has to be round fully again.

What really sold me on purchasing was watching the demo video on Echo1's website. If you are on the fence about purchasing, watch the video and it will solidify why you should get it.

The only con about the RPK so far is the rear sight assembly just fell out during play on the very first day, and the piece that goes under the rear sight was lost. We were able to back track and find the actual rear sight. I contacted Echo1 and they are sending a replacement part no questions asked. That is customer service!

"This gun is sweet! I bought it with a high-torque motor, steel high-torque gears, an m150, and an NcStar rail system. Bottom line, with my optic, I'm the best SAW gunner for my county team. The power is unreal. The build is full-steel, and if very solid. The bi-pod is seemingly high quality, and the ROF is insane with a 9.6v. I can shoot up to around 150 feet with accuracy and power. Also, as a pointer, the gun is very light-weight (I think like 12.5 lbs loaded), so if you want a secondary, go for it.The gun is killer. BUY THIS GUN.

Pros:
-Power (out of the box it's insane, with upgrades it MURDERS)
-Accuracy/ Range (great out-of-the-box; 150 feet accuracy)
-Solid build (ALL STEEL)
-Light weight; I can rifle this gun
-Sweet looks, make everyone jealous! ;D

Cons:
-Battery space. The gun takes a small-type, despite labels, and even then, you have to cram. It isn't a problem unless you're switching batteries mid-game, which you shouldn't need to do. Other than that...
literally none. I know some people say "NONE" because they're so in-love with their weapon, but I can't find any flaws. It has $450 quality, and doesn't even need upgrades. This gun is awesome, and with a new set of gears + a new motor, you'll never lose a match. EVER.

BUY THIS GUN. Whether you're a SAW or assault, this gun is the way to go. Disappointment isn't possible.

"SOOOOOOO russian. The essential lmg. light weight, and very powerful. I recommend a CYMA 2500 rnd drum mag and a 3 point sling. Much like the real steel.

"I bought this from another competitor who will not post my review, so I thought I'd bring it to the large Evike community.

This gun shoots EXTREMELY hot and you will most likely not be able to take it to a regulated field without toning the power down a bit. My BONE STOCK RPK (everything is stock, barrel/gearbox/spring/etc..) shoots 474fps with a .20 gram BB. That is REALLY high. The build quality is exquisite and you would not think that this gun is an "ECHO 1" but they really stepped up their game. The stock after using it for a few months started to wobble and was EASILY fixed by taking a flat head screwdriver and tightening the screw on the top AND bottom of the stock. Currently I have 30,000 rounds through this gun. (again, which is STOCK) I have also been using an 11.1v LiPo battery. The gun STILL sounds/runs like it did when I bought it. Speaking of the battery, you can only use the included custom battery or a LiPo in this gun with a small type connector. The battery space is surprisingly limited for the size of this gun.
___
-PROS-
Build Quality
Internals are absolutely fantastic
Iron sights are dead on
Charging handle is the most solid I have ever felt on an AK and sounds/feels amazing to rack.
Nice wood furniture

-CONS-
Stock magazine is crap. Could barely keep up with the rate of fire of the included 9.6v when it was fully charged. (which isn't even TOO fast) The winding mechanism also broke in the first 2 months and was beyond repair.

The included "screw-type-things' that hold the bipod on fell out really easily and I had to purchase 2 screws & nuts and reattach the bipod myself.

While the 500mm/6.08 stock barrel is INSANELY accurate, this gun can fit a 650mm (yes, a 650) without even using a barrel extension. I am actually waiting for my tightbore in the mail. (my first upgrade) I don't know what they were thinking here.

(NOT REALLY A CON - but you need a phillips head screwdriver to remove the buttplate to access the battery compartment which IS somewhat limited)

"RPK Light Machine gun Is Ultimate Light Machine gun It is supreme to all other Machine gun

This model is superior to SRC because of Build type it is not AK 47 type with screws in receiver but AK 74 type with pin. It tears down much cleaner Like real rifle. More sturdy Steel, Real Soviet Wood, great weapon for suppressing inferior UN troops (This I will not get into except for telling you it is good for that)

Long Accurate Barrel
High Capacity Magazine All AK Interchangeable
Steel Folding Bipod For base of fire
High Rate Of Fire Depending on Battery Type


Note: Please do not buy unless you are true Op 4 team member it look very bad when in UN Gear hog's hands


To All my Comrades Dos Vadonya

"I must say this has to be the best Heavy machine gun i have ever gotten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I say this couse at 50ft i was hitting small pop can with .25s' nearly every single time. Also in a game it;s just fun to use couse i bought a 5000rd auto mag and it's just complete domination.

Pros: Cons:
Great Fps Gets kinda heavy
Good range and accuracy .2s' go evey where .23s'-.25s' recomed
well built



Over All
SWEET GUN

"Excellent Support Weapon!

Externals

I received this gun in the mail a few weeks ago and all I can say is that this gun is a non abstract noun for excellence. When I first pulled open the box I was absolutely amazed at how realistic this gun looks. I have seen real RPKs at gun shows, and this one looks like they took the real thing and shoved airsoft internals inside it. It even has the removable gas piston and spring like the real thing below the steel cover. The real wood furniture is nice feeling, and really adds to the look of the gun. The rest of this gun is pretty much all metal excluding the strong polymer grip, and the gun itself is very sturdy and will withstand a decent amount of punishment. The bipod is easy to use and very quick to deploy, as well as looks very cool. The only downside on the externals are the stock. It is really wobbly. Tightening the screws made it less wobbly, but there is still an ever so slight wobble.

Performance

Performance wise is where this gun really shines. Right out of the box it is pinpoint accurate and has great range compared to other LMGs because of its longer inner barrel. The battery is comes with is a 9.6 and is actually the one I use, it is very high quality and has a very long life.The rate of fire on this gun with the 9.6 is very fast and perfect for a squad automatic weapon. I have used this gun in a few games and it was absolutely murderous! It is great for supporting your squad with heavy fire support and taking out those distant targets your buddies can't get to easily. It is also great for defending positions. We were playing Search and Destroy and I dug in hidden behind a tree and some bushes, well blended in with my camo and absolutely ripped through anyone trying to pass. I highly recommend that anyone who gets this get flashmags for this. The mag it comes with is ok, but looks weird and is not the best at suppressive fire for longer bursts. The flashmags make this thing even more beast in battle and it gives it a more classic RPK look. I have already ordered a drum.

Overall

Overall this gun is amazing for the price and will surely hold its own in combat. I use this in my role as a machine gunner and it fits in like a glove and will send the enemy diving for cover or force them to retreat. I give gun overall a 4.8/5. The stock is something to keep and eye on and the mag it comes with is not that great. But these problems can easily be remedied, and as long as you take good care of this gun, it will surely return the favor. And for only 230$ it cannot be beat. I recommend this to any airsofters looking for a great performing and great looking gun that is an eye turner on the field. All I can say is BUY THIS GUN!

"Killer LMG!

I have played a few games with this gun now so i figure i can do a review now.

Right out of the box this thing was great!! It looks so sweet!

I like the Full Metal and Real Wood!
(the clear coat on the wood is to shinny for me i sanded mine down to give it that rought look and so people couldnt see the shine off my gun when im in the bushes.)

I love the range on this thing the hop-up is a little touchy.

The bi pod is good, not great but good. Stays where you want it and when you drop it down and have to run it doenst bang around like you would think.

I have owned the ICS L86 and thing thing is just as good Shoots just as far.

I like that it fits the Lancer Tac Flash Mags!!!! It looks alot cleaner without that ugly clay color mag that is to long for the gun YUCK!

OH ya and the stock.
Yes its made of wood and the batter is a tight fit but it fits.
I had the same probley with this gun i hurd alot of other people had, a loose stock. For the first week or 2 it wasnt so bad then it just bugged the heck out of me so i un screwed the stock (2 flat head screws) pulled it back a little so i could see where it connected to the reciever and put 2 strips of black tap in there 1 on each side folded hot dog style just as long as the gap for the stock to fit in and then put the stock back on.
Now there is 0 movement of the stock! That is the easiest, fastest way i could fix it and you cant see the tape at all if you do it that way. Noone can even tell lol. Oh and some people say its heavy so know your limits.
If your looking for a LMG and want something russian, GET THIS!!!!

"This is my favorite gun in my arsenal. The stock is a bit wobbly but the preformance makes up for it

"I received this gun a few days ago, and have reviewed just about every possible aspect of it. And so far, it seems like a very worthy purchase. It shoots well, the bipod handles pretty smoothly, and the gun looks straight up awesome. There was the usual, expected minor issue: the front sight needed a little tweaking, which is pretty insignificant. It shoots very well in both modes (.2 seems to be the best BB type), and for bonus realism, the fire selector is in Russian. The real wood/metal is nice, though the wood looks a little worn despite being brand new (added realism?). The battery space, which is in the stock, is a little bit tight, and a good bit of maneuvering is required to fit it in. But all in all, this gun shoots well, looks amazing, includes many small details for added realism, and is a great piece for anyone looking to own a lesser seen model such as the RPK.

Pros:
shoots well
realistic with attention to detail
is awesome

Cons:
battery space is not ideal, but still manageable

"I absolutely love this gun it is heavy and sturdy (confident i could break down a door with this thing) I ran into 1 issue where most ak mags wobble in the gun to the point it would misfeed, so all i did was slap 2 pieces of electrical tape on both sides and boom perfect fitment. Great option getting into the support play style.

WARNING: People will bother you and ask to hold/shoot your awesome gun.

"I bought this from somewhere else but I thought this would be a good spot for a review since I regularly use and trust this site a lot. I had to take off a star for battery space. The battery compartment is in the buttstock and is very small rather than the gun being wired under the dust cover like on the CYMA AKs and having room for the longer stick type batteries. But everything else is great so far. This gun is very solid and shoots very well straight out of the box. Built very well and it actually had better accuracy than my CYMA AK did so I'm definitely excited to make some upgrades and see what I can do with it. I'm using it for the first time completely stock tomorrow and I feel pretty confident it will perform to my expectations after messing with the hop up and sights a little more

"SECOND REVIEW:
I used this gun more heavily on a more open field with larger ranges and more complex firing angles, this thing holds its own. I did notice that I will likely need to do a barrel and a hop up swap to make the most out of the air seal in the chamber, as it is kinda leaky and effects the FPS and range. I was still getting 200ft straight shots, but that was with the hop slider all the way back, with .28 bbs. I will also work on the compression system to get that air seal even better. electrical stuff is perfectly passable, have had no issues yet and it holds up on consistent full auto fire on a 11.1.
