A&K M60 Airsoft AEG Machine Gun (Model: M60)

"I got mine over this last week and finally got to use it yesterday. This thing isnt as heavy as I thought it was going to be at first. But after a 3 hour game of lugging this moster my m-16 and equipment around I was beat. Other than that the gun does not dissapoint. Works well in emplaced positions and rips through underbrush with no problem. Definatly a well made support gun, Keeping multiple peoples heads down will be no problem for this.

Pros:
1. Rate of fire is good with the stock 9.6 that it comes with. (get a bigger 9.6, somthing like a 4000 or 3800 the stock battery will not make it through a whole game.
2. Weight is realistic
3. Capacity of box mag is amazing. For a 3 hour game and constant firing I reloaded 2 times. Seems pretty good considering the amount of BB's I went through.
4. Range was great. I had no problem lacing guys up from 150-170 feet away.
5. The M-60 also can keep up with continuous fire. Had the trigger pulled for the better part of a half an hour with no problems.

Cons:
The cons are the same as everyone elses below. Charging handle didnt like to stay in place and the bipods seemed a bit flimsy.

All in all if your looking for a machine gun to add to your airsoft collection, look no further. The A&K M-60 VN is a great gun to get. Especially for the amount of $ spent your getting a great piece of equipment and a great deal.

"perfect gun, but heres a pros and cons list to help you guys decide if you want it

pros:
-shoots extremely fast with the right battery
-easily accessible to fix/clean
-loads easily
-large bipod
-flash hider comes off easily
-looks and feels real

cons:
-after playing for awhile your arms will be a little sore but you should be expecting that
-sometimes attaching the box mag can be a pain if youre tired

all in all buy this gun, im never going back to regular rifles

"I just received mine, and Im very impressed.
I love the weight and feel.

When I was in the Army, this was my weapon, and the A&K M60 does not disappoint.

I plan on terrorizing my local airsoft field this spring!

The only con I can think of so far is the charging handle feels very weak.
Its not spring loaded, and feels like it could break easily.

"Definitely A FUN GUN.

Since all Airsoft AEGs anyways are just about shooting rounds down range with Hi-Cap mags and trying to score hits spraying, LMGs are really the most realistic AEG weapons. Although out of all of them, the M60VN is surely the best.

The 590mm Inner Barrel is the most accurate, even deadlier with a 6.01 Tightbore and Sniper Bucking. I enjoyed seeing my Completely Straight stream of BBs with no random fliers for a while until cheap BBs broke my bucking. (I resorted to cheap BBs after spewing 15K with that awesome steady stream)

Externals are great, still haven't had my carrying handle break, and I switched my bi-pod just in case since everyone says its fragile.

I bypass the MOSFET because I run Lipo, and the rate of fire is about 17 BBs/Sec at 365 FPS.

My trigger DID go bad, replaced it, and it WENT BAD AGAIN. I think the contacts for the trigger switch burns too fast, and there's really no way around it when you're constantly firing.

Its front heavy, so I love to work out my left arm to be able to aim it properly.

Oh, the Hop Up Unit... There are many answers in the internet, so just pick the one you're most comfortable with.

So with a few dollars in upgrades, the M60VN is a great weapon for A Man Willing To Utilize It.

"Where do I even begin?

This gun was first shown to me over the summer. I thought it was cool but I never pictured myself using/paying for/ owning one. A friend of mine was lucky enough to get one for his birthday and that's what started it all. From there on, I knew I was done with M4's. When I got mine I was so excited, and I was very impressed. This is my second favorite gun (only because I have the PKM now).

PROS:
-The range isn't bad at all and the accuracy is wonderful.
-The rate of fire is awesome on my 9.6; I take two with me because one doesn't last me!
-It will hold 4000 rounds and the auto wind is nice and quiet.
-Very nice external build quality.
-Comes with 9.6
-Great price; using coupon code "evike2013" my total was $263, just the gun with an extra battery.

CONS
-It's heavy (16-17lbs).
-Battery is included but mine did not work.
-My charging handle wasn't on when it arrived.
-New barrel wouldn't hurt anything.

Over all its an amazing gun and I would recommend it to anyone who is tough enough to lug it around!
8.5/10

"I currently have 2 great platforms all around if your playing a support roll then this weapon is awesome the weight is exact. I play as many as 6 milsim games a year and this weapon has held up and never let me down. The only issue I had was that the screws came loose and the first one feel apart this must likely was becuase it was monted on a recon buggy. But had 3 years of hard game play before it went out. Also slamming to the ground hard enough will break the bipod off so upgradeing that will help the life of your PIG. Dont spend 2k on something you can get for 300.

Pros
Weight
Rof
Life length of the weapon
Upgrade ability
Puts fear into your opponent's

Cons
Bipod
Loose screw right out of the box
Loose screws right out of the box

"This gun is amazing full metal MOSFET works and
Pros
Range
Rof
Full metal
Good for defending
Cons
Heavy
Mag takes battery life when auto winding

"A great support machine gun for a really great price. Having much experience with the M-60 in the army in the 70's I have to admit this is one incredible replica of the real thing. The heft, the fit and functionality are all here. Outside of the fact that it does not fire center fire .308 ammo, I would swear it was the genuine article. Upon receipt, I unboxed it, set it up, charged the battery, hooked up the box mag (not really that tuff to install on the gun). I fired it and was amazed at the ROF on this baby. once I installed the Mosfet chip. I am tickled to death to own one of these and have a great time showing it off to other experienced vets who know the real gun. Everyone at first did not understand the word airsoft, because around the area I come from not too many are into it like they are around other parts of the country. Maybe I can get the ball rolling and a new habit started since I have a number of these weapons as part of my hobby. I've been more than glad to pass the word along about the hobby and about Evike. Keep up the good work, and I enjoy your instructional videos Thanks.

"i love this machine gun.the look the weight the power...just love it when am in the field everyone wants to me in my team...i gone tru mad rounds and still fires like is new .is a most for support fire ...A+ m60vn

"Ordered one(1) of these and looks mean. Compact and heavy. There are no available upgrades for this one.I installed m125 irregular pitch spring in increase fps but lost some accuracy. Installed 6.01 mm tightbore (470mm length) and tightened groupings alittle using.25's. Quick change spring is a convenience. Installed matrix high speed motor and bypassed adjustable rof mosfet (jumped outer two(2) wires on plug wired to gun, mine did not have jumper plug in packaging) .Initially i ran a 7.4v 2500mah battery thinking that a lipo with that many amps would sustain this gun. I was wrong, because the box mag runs on the same battery, it ate that battery up before emptying the mag halfway(1300-1500 rounds). Installed 9.6v 5000 mah battery and solved that problem and then some. Sounds great with noveske flash hider/amplifier. Hop up nub sits in unit vertically!? Instead of the usally horizontal position we are used to seeing. Mine had a casting burr in the hole where nub was seated thus not allowing me to adjust it accordingly. Easy fix, remove burr. Good weapon to keep'em ducking.

"FREAKING AMAZING GUN! better than i ever expected! opened the box today and it just looks so damn sexy! everything is so easy to use when you read the little book that comes with it (mostly pictures showing you what to do)
pros-
realistic weight
holds 3500-4000 rounds
battery is held with the box mag
can change rate of fire easily
carrying handle is vary secure so you dont need to worry about it braking
FULL METAL!!
fold up bipod
grip helps alot
shoots crazy fast

cons-
only can think of one and that would be i wish the mag was on the other side. feel like more like a lefty gun.

"Bought this thing and have been using it for roughly 3 weeks now. Runs perfectly, feels the way the 60 was meant to feel and has an incredible box mag. This was my first AEG and I love it. Only hard part to using it is the box mag can get in the way during right handed operation if you have short arms. Use a mix of .25's and .20 to get a good covering fire spread. Otherswise all your shots end up pretty much in the same spot. So depending on how you are using this thing either use exclusivly .25 if you want really accurate rounds or mix to get that great covering fire.

Highly reccomend having a sidearm while running this incase you run into a cqb situation. I tried using it indoors and while it covered hallways well and is short enough to clear some areas there are times when it just cant cut the corner without overly exposing yourself.

Also be careful when working the barrel release lever because its a piece of weak metal that WILL snap if you try to force it in any way.

"Lets just say.... WOW. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS LMG!!! It shoots where you point it, has a heavy weight, which may be a pro or con to others, which makes it realistic, EXCELLENT FPS and has an Adjustable ROF, which I or others can adjust to their liking, and comes with a M60 flash hider... I don't know how to take off the M4 flash hider though... Comes With the M60 flash hider, Mag box, a 9.6 V battery and charger... Came with the complete package for me... but besides that, THIS is the REAL definition of an Airsoft Gun. I recommend it to anyone who is on a support team and wants foes to hug dirt and grab cover while your buds advance to take them out. Best if you have 2 of these on your team. EXCELLENT GUN, BUY IT!!!

Pros:

1: EXCELLENT FPS
2: Adjustable ROF, which suits to anyone's liking.
3: Shoots Where you point it.
4: Heavy, Realistic weight. ( Only weighs 12-15 lbs. may be a con to others...)
5: Deploys a bipod for quick change in standing to prone position
6: Use .25 BBs for best results (.3's don't go so well.. decreases the range)


Cons:

1: Weight. (This is for some.. not all say the weight is con.)

For Me there is NO CONS. THIS WEAPON IS PERFECT.

"I recently bought this gun. It's a definite powerhouse. From the quality to the FPS.

PROS:
Full metal
decently accurate (But with 3500 rds I think a few shots curving is not a big deal)
Heavy (Realism, but may also be a con)
Plentiful Battery storage
Sturdy. This gun will last you a while
Great Internals
FPS
Range
CONS:
Heavy (may also be a pro for some)
May occasionally jam (It was my fault though, I kept forgetting to lube)

Overall: This gun is just awesome. But if you are a beginner, I do not recommend it. It is 17 pounds, but these guns are usually meant to be stationary. As an example: I bought the expensive sling, the gun, an epic 40th Day mask, a riot shield, and basically a Juggernaut vest. I walk out on the field (Literally walking) and wield this one handed (with the sling I bought, don't try to one hand this without the sling haha) with the gun in my left hand and my riot shield in another. I also had the vest with 4 high cap m16 mags, and I had the epic mask on. Holy SH** everyone who looked at me was freaking the hell out. ;)

Get this gun. It's worth it when you see the enemy's face.

"Amazing weapon system! Shot bout 100 rounds at 75feet and shot a 2 inch group. thats pretty dang good but sadly after 1,000 rounds the 1600 mAh battery stopped working so i charged it and it still didnt seem to work :( so i took it over to my neighbors house to see what to do and he put in a 3600 mAh battery in and it worked beautifuly and 2 weeks ago i orderd a 5000 mAh battery and should be here this week :P

Pros:
ACCURATE
great rof
great fps
great feeding system

cons:
none

And FYI this gun is not as heavy as everybody says it is its actually quite light
