Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI "Featherweight" Airsoft Machine Gun (Model: M249 E2 / 400 FPS / Performance Plus Package)

"Just picked this up and fielded this in CQB play. Excellent accuracy and very small cone of fire. The only downsides I can say is the small battery compartment and the M16/M4 mag well is not compatible with other brands. Of course having the 2500rd box fixed that.

"Despite it being called the feather weight, it still has some weight. It’s still heavy duty and the bi pod is good. Performs very well. 10/10 would recommend as an LMG.

"This gun was amazing cause i used it during a rainy day and i even fell on it trying to run back to a trench. The gun shoots consistency but if you want a faster rate of fire I would recommend getting a 11.4 lipo battery . Overall this gun is really sturdy and accurate.

"Get an A&K if you want a full metal heavier version, but otherwise get this if you want an M249 equipped with a 2500 round drum mag!

"I just got mine and had a few games with it, all in all I am very happy with it. I have ran into no problems with this gun, and whether it is a CQB or outdoor field, this gun always performs on par with a powerful look to it along the way. Works with all my A&K drum mag and M4 mags which is cool as my local field only allow full auto when you use a SAW. This is a great rifle for both beginners and for veterans. Gearbox is easy to work on and it is the same weight as an m4 with much more firepower!

"it's very good for a beginner AEG. The buffer tube is made out of polymer but very sturdy, and that probably shaves 12 oz of weight so it can be a positive thing to many people, but that is my only gripe, otherwise it's pretty awesome to have a M249 the weight of an M4. Gearbox is your Marui m4 with the quick change spring like the Specna Arms M4 series. All in all a great overall buy and I would recommend this gun to beginners and verterans.

"Pre-ordered this gun and got it yesterday.......Really love the gun. The para trooper model is very light. its very accurate and the plastic/polymer is surprisingly strong. The rail space is super nice, as i have attached numerous mods to it.... Overall the gun is built very sturdy and good. This is my new primary!

"Good gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"They sent the wrong size stock pins but that's fine it still works without the stock. but it also cant feed mid cap or low cap mags.

But it's a cool machine gun.

"I've been wanting to get my hands on one of these for a while, and I'm happy that a deal came my way. I've been playing for over 12 years, and have owned *many* MGs- 240B, M60, heavyweight 249, RPK, etc. I've gotten a lot of questions about this platform and I have withheld recommending it or not until owning one.

Bottom Line Up Front: This is good for kids and smaller players to get a taste of what being a support gunner on a field is actually like. It is cheap and feels cheap, but the internals are solid enough to last you until you want to upgrade.

Pros:
- Lightweight. It's in the name. It is as light as most metal-body M4s before adding BBs.

- Price. Good for players on a budget or players who want to have some extra money to upgrade.

Cons:
- Body. Calling this a 'polymer' body is a stretch, though technically correct... when I hear 'polymer,' I think of the old Combat Machine bodies that could take a beating. This is *not* that. This is plastic. It feels like the same plastic as you might have in clamshell packaging. This isn't necessarily a bad thing- it keeps weight and price low. But if you're buying it thinking that this is going to feel anywhere close to real.... think again.

- Battery Space. Wiring to the feed tray is always a little iffy. You might be able to modify it to wire to the buffer tube. The battery space here is small, very small, but you can fit a mini brick into it. Just be aware.

"Let's start with the pros!
-Awesome gun that turns heads and will make anyone staring down the barrel scare of you.
-solid polymer body with little flex
-great gearbox and doesn't require any upgrade

Cons:
-You will need to learn how to adjust the hop-up unit so that you won't suffer misfeeding issues
-buttstock pins are a nightmare to push in place, get your hammer out!
-battery will be the most difficult thing you can find for this gun but a butterfly lipo fits right over the gearbox without pinching anything.

I love this gun but there are some things you will need to work so that's a reliable gun, primarily feeding issues, I got mines sorted out but it took a little grinding and gluing.
not a recommended starter gun as a matrix m4 for $100 will be so much fun and reliable straight out the box!

"Good until it’s not…
Bought to use at a milsim event. Issues with consistent feeding initially. Realized you have to let it full auto for 10-15 shots to consistently feed. If you try to burst 3-5 shots at a time it won’t accurately feed with box mags. Feeds great with pts epm1 mags.

Surprisingly accurate with .32s.
Velocity right at 385 fps with the _400 Mofset para version.
Love the weight. Buy with knowledge that all LMGs have feeding issues with box mags, the gearbox will break eventually. I’m intending to either upgrade internals or swap to HPA.

Also it totally malfunctioned in the rain. Full auto for nearly 2min despite me not pulling the trigger. Happened 3 times and I had to stop using it.

"Got it love it. Only issue mine is shooting 350 fps. Nothing an upgrade spring cant fix.

"It’s a fantastic gun but my only problem with the gun is only not having a battery come with it,even though I spent 250 bucks for it and I didn’t get a battery is just upsetting.
Over all great gun and all but sadly no battery.

"Just got mine, to wet to shoot today. as far as looks, WOW looks killer. like everyone else says the stock is wobbly and feels unsecured. Not sure how to fix it but i'll try. The bipod is also flimsy, and plastic. Just a matter of time before it breaks. I'm removing it for a vertical grip. Other than that, when i do the shake test. Its SOLID, no rattles, didn't expect that for $215. without shooting it, i give it thumbs up, on looks alone I'd buy again
