A&K / Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI SAW Machine Gun w/ Metal Receiver (Model: MK II / Wolverine Inferno)

"I have to say I'm very pleased with this gun so far. I will say that it is not something for new players but someone who has some experience with working with internals as there are a couple parts that could use some tweaking or even replacing. However, as far as gearboxes go, this is a breeze to work on! There is a known trigger problem with the m249 - I fixed it by lubing the inside of the microswitch and sanding down the contacts along with bending the trigger mechanism to its appropriate place.

I do want to clarify to any potential buyers though, despite what all the other reviews may imply, this gun does not come with an aluminum case, muzzle break, or even a 9.6v battery. Its irritating to me that the same product would have varying inclusion of accessories and yet have the same set of reviews. Evike doesn't say that such accessories are included but regardless, the reviews do make it seem like they are included. I was disappointed to receive a "too bad, so sad" reply when I asked Evike to monitor their reviews to dissuade such confusion.

So, what is included is the AEG with short orange tip (not what the picture shows), the box magazine, and an 8.4v battery (Matrix) with a really cheap wall charger. There is no extra midcap magazine either. So all in all, I am pleased with the gun but if you are looking for the best deal, there are other retailers that offer more bang for your buck.

"I have had this gun for over 2 years now and is still working very well all my friends hate playing against me because of this gun. The only con is that it came with another muzzle brake and i have no idea how to switch it

"This is an awsome gun the only thing that sucks is that they gave me a half ass box mag that wont wind at all because the whole internal wires were messed up! otherwise a great gun.

Webmaster: If your mag was bad we can replace. All you need to do is contact us!

"Very good gun
ive had this aeg for a couple months but only used it a few time because i got it during the winter. its a great overall gun
Pros:
full metal
around 330 fps (.20 g)
m16 mag compatible
box mag
its a SAW!

Cons:
very heavy(im a pretty small guy but 17 lbs is still a lot)
330 fps (im upgrading mine)
not that accurate
box mag fall out all the time(i prefer m16/m4 mags)
a little pricy but overall worth it

"Iv had my SAW for 3 or 4 weeks now and have trained and skirmished with this like it was real. When I received it the stock was trash. I've lok-tited it since but it needs to be replaced. The bipod is a bad zinc alloy and will need to be replaced in the near future, and a rail system is desperately wanted when the box mag is inserted.
Pros
Awesome weight
great materials
become part of an elite group of airsofters

Cons
Bipod is weak and will not stay in position
Stock is trash
box mag needs fiddling

"Day 4 with my new Para SAW. My favorite that iv ever used. For 3 years iv been dreaming of this weapon and the ability to lay masive firepower down range.
PROS
Awsome meterials
lighter then I thought (at 15lbs)
easy to use and maintain
HUGE mag (now i can fill my position)
rails on feed tray
CONS
The WORST stock Iv ever seen, Iv had better on walmart guns
the mag was not assembled correctly and must be reassembled
the bipod looks like it might fall of in game

"Well lets see, ok it Rocks! I put 5,000 rounds through it at a small OP on Sat. not a single problem. Would recommend using a Intellect 9.6 instead of the factory battery. The intellect raised my ROF by almost 30% +\-
The font bi-pod is the weak point in the design, just don't plan on using the bi-pod too often.
4/5 stars Weak OEM battery, Weak bi-pod.

"Nice SAW to be sure, but my only problem with it is that it has a bad tendency to foul up even using the standard box mag. still great outer construction compared to my friends CA SAW. and one more thing does anybody know if this gear box can handle a 9.6volt? I asked on the forum and no one seems to know... any help would be great
go Evike!! : )

Webmaster: Yes, the gun can handle a 9.6V

"So this A&K Para is a pretty good gun.

i used it at the place i go airsofting at and it did alot better than i expected it to.

its got a pretty nice ROF, nothing INSANELY fast, but its definately not a slow shooting gun!
FPS is about 315 more or less....

Pros:
Magazine is Good. i had one tiny little jam but it was seriously a no-brainer haha
gun fires really nicely
good ROF
reliable
finish is nice
Good finish on the gun
easy to disassemble and reassemble
metal, way sturdy and tough

Cons:
its a lil bit on the heavy side
the pull-out stock came a lil loose, but that got fixed...no biggie
the gun case that it came with is a lil wimpy but watever haha your buying the GUN not the case



So overall, its well worth the money
If i could do it all over again, i'd get this same gun.
4/5 cuz i think te case could have been a lil better.
the gun rocks haha

"Bought this with the a case.Pretty fun playing it even on skirmishes.Need a bit more power/fps.Does anyone know what the stock spring on this gun.I want to upgrade not sure which should I go with...
THX!!!!!

Webmaster: M120

"looks awesome, but does it shoot 8mm or 6mm, I rated it only 4 stars cause it would stink if it shot8mm

"wiring is terrible. battery is terrible. box mag u have to fiddle with a little but u can get it t work decent. i recomend a new spring and possibly a lipoly. its also really fun to shoot. it literally shoots forever.

"i love this but i always feel sorry for the support gunner that has to lug this around and has to wear a three day assult pack with all our ammo and ten box mags for the saw, water,food,tools,batteries,gas, other guns,external parts, and a launcher with grenades

"Don't believe the nay sayers, this gun is EPIC. I brought it to the last game and it had some experienced players hitting the dirt. The box mag seems to feed fine, although I did have to put some tape on the AA batteries in it to keep them from slipping out. The stock battery is fine 9.6v, it kept me shooting for a full 7 hour game. Lots of metal parts, seems durable enough. Heavyweight though, do not buy this gun if you are nt good with endurance.

"It's a great gun I like having a full metal gun like this. but for what your paying I would want a instruction manual so I know haw to get to parts and what can come off. it took me 30 minutes to figure out how to get the spring out and I didn't know the lower hand grip could come off to put the battery in I was pulling off the barrel each time.
