CYMA Standard CM048 AK Airsoft AEG Rifle (Model: AKMSU / Add 9.6v NiMH Battery + Charger)

"I'm writing another review after using it almost every weekend at a large outdoor field for 4 years. It still works great out of the box!

I started using an 11v LiPo about a year ago and kept it on semii(the high-caps can't keep up with the full-auto-feed). It will need a hopup change in the near future though finally after about 950 hours of hard use lol. This is partly because I stopped cleaning it soon after installing the LiPo. I'm not going to be using it much anymore soon because evike put the NGRS mags in stock and my parents deemed it "safe to order".

I don't know if this gun has been soaked in holy water or if I'm just lucky, but I hope that CYMA continues making this gun because mine has served me VERY WELL.

"Excellent gun for an excellent price, its an absolute laser, can accurately hit targets at about 150-200 feet. The iron sights are immaculate, I don't even think I'll need an optic for it, but there is space for a rail. Only issue is the magazines are a bit wobbly but its not a big deal, and the sling mount in the front was a bit small for mine, but I still found a place to attach it to. The gun is a bit heavy but you will get used to it the more you play with it. Overall great gun out of the box, everyone compliments it, highly recommend.

"This gun is the BEST! I got it recently and have been shredding people with it. If your new to the sport get this gun.
Pros:
Accurate
Heavy
Easy to use
Real Wood
Very Durable
Cons:
its a pain to clean
Overall:
It's a really great gun!
Here is the rail I use:

"I was able to snag this AEG while on sale, and boy what a good call that was! Cyma continues to impress me with their build quality and accuracy for the price. Shoots pretty straight, especially after I threw on a cheapo 1x30 red dot. She’s a hefty girl but I like having the weight personally. I also added a midcap Cyma metal mag in lieu of the polymer hicap. My only complaint is the recommended battery. It shoots great with the 8.4v LiPo butterfly type they recommend, but it’s an incredibly tight fit underneath the dust cover. I may look for other batteries to try out so I can easily pull the slide back to access the hop-up.

Overall, fantastic AEG for the price even if the sale ends. With some simple mods it’s a great contender in both CQB and outdoor settings.

"I just used this in a game today. It was indeed the best gun on the field and i dominated playing in the sand. I even fell on it and im not exactly a skinny dude. I landed on the ground reciever first into thorns branches and sand and when i got up it kept running and playing getting me more and more kills. This is one tough puppy. Only think broken on it is the sling holders. From that fat face plant earlier today. Over all i need to buy another one because why not.

"Running this with a 7.4v lipo and it's a snug fit. Stock is really nice. This is a chunker but shoots really well. Inner barrel does run longer than the outer, but that provides a nice sound profile will the flash hider is replaced with a properly ported one. at $199 this is a nice AEG but we got our at the $150 mark

"Super solid gun but the inner barrel length is far from correct in the description; it’s about 2” longer than the traditional 455mm AK barrel due to the flash hider style allowing a longer barrel. This gun is somewhere around 490-500mm in barrel length. The flash hider also has a pin in it that cannot be removed or drilled out because it is hidden and the hider is a solid chunk of metal; I’m really not even sure how they get that pin in, to begin with. I didn’t even realize the pin was there was there until I forced the flash hider off and realized I messed up some of the threads on the barrel. The threads still accepted the new slant-type flash hider but the Inner barrel is now protruding roughly 1.5-2”. Will need to buy a new barrel if I want the standard, more classic, AK appearance.

Barrel length and flash hider aside, the gun is super solid. I was thankful to get one with no wobble in the front grip since that’s hard to fix. My stock was a bit loose but I tightened the screws and it is solid now. The gun is heavy duty and feels great. It’s surprisingly accurate for a $200 gun straight outta the box too. It shoots a slightly hot for some fields but this fills the missing spot in my collection of a real wood AK and it does so very well.

"Picked this thing up recently for $150. It's solid, like very solid! Fairly easy to remove hop up and barrel with a few tools. All on all this thing feels amazing. Shoots well, I Rhopped it with a 6.01 angel custom barrel. The stock wobble is easily fixed by tightening the castle nut on it, and the swivel mount on the buffer tube still moves left to right. If you're looking for an AK look no further and get this one. The stock barrel does stick out about 1/2 inch from the threads so keep that in mind if removing the orange tip you'll have to get something to cover it. Trigger response is what you'd expect from a 9.6v battery, no mosfet so don't throw an 11.1 in there. Most stock AK accessories don't fit however there are some out there with a little research and asking.

"It worked well I Until replaced the motor and the Fuse blew so I got a better fuse and sent in to a shop to get the spring replaced and it looks good it functions good and it’s a good gun but the battery compartment is too small get a smaller battery overall great buy

"Bought this thing on sale for my Brother
Honestly not a bad gun, little expensive though even on sale it was 200.


Pros for me
Shoots 400 FPS out the box with .20g
VFC clone
Pretty sturdy, Im pretty sure this is the stamped metal but don't quote me on it
All CYMA mags fit fine
It says wired to the stock but the one I bought was wired to the dust cover
Very accurate
alot of rail space for you tacticool people out there

Cons-
Stock is a bit wobbly

"Overall one of the best airsoft guns I have owned. It has range, power, decent rate of fire, and it is full metal and real wood. If you are in the market for an ak this should be the one in my opinion. or maybe the other CYMA ak variants.

"I have had this airsoft gun for over a year now, and it has never let me down. I have tripped, dropped it, fell on it, and banged it on trees. and it still works like a charm.

pros:
reliable
built like a rock
accurate
good rof

cons:
really heavy (I weighed it at 9.1lb)
plastic mag broke quickly but easy to replace with a metal one

conclusion:
My friends fear this gun a lot!!!!

"I have had this gun for 5 months now and I haven't had ANY problems with it. there are no upgrades needed. I have been running .28 gram bb's and can hit people from around 80 feet away. I highly recommend getting this gun. It won't break even if you throw it from your roof. It also looks EPIC. It's a really good gun for the price. Well actually, the magazine broke on mine so I recommend purchasing a new one. You can wreck some serious noobs with this gun.

"I just recently got this gun and I am not a new player. I am a very experienced player who got it as a project gun to learn how to work on upgrading my own gun and I got say wow! This gun is surprisingly good for the price tag! It doesn't have the best ROF like a G&P but it still is decent ROF and has great range, I plan on dropping in a tight bore metal barrel and titan unit from gate. Of your new to airsoft this gun is perfect for you, of your experienced its still a good project gun anyways especially if you are an AK fan

"Well, where do I start?
It’s an amazing gun out of the box. Mine clocked in at 407 fps which is just 3fps short of the cqb limit at my field.
The accuracy surprised me, it was shooting, and I was actually hitting my targets for once, unlike my dinky M4.
I absolutely love the real steel and actual wood furniture.

The best part of it all, I got it for $135 while it was on sale. Definitely would recommend for those looking for a great starting Kalash.
