AMOEBA "Striker" Gen2 S1 Bolt Action Sniper Rifle (Color: Dark Earth)

"Great looking gun, but my .36g Novs are way too heavy, looking at using maybe .30gs or .25gs. And the bolt looks to be very cheep metal, and it is very scratchy and has to be lubed up alot!!! Or its a pain to pull back and push back. But hopfully it gets better with use!! And the hop adj is under the scop so its hard to adjust the hop with the scope

"Just received my Striker today. It has a very stiff spring and there was metal shavings coming off the bolt but once I added a little silicone lube to the bolt area it seems to be fine. I plan to test it this weekend weather permitting of course.

"I own this and its nice and all but here is myfirst impression and review.

Pros.
Light weight
Plenty of mods
Highly moddable
Looks and feels good
And quick tear down and reassembly

Cons.
Plastic sleeve around the bolt could be the wrong size and really make it hard to rack.
Hopup system needs some work.
Has no barrel spacers.
Buy an extra bucking.

I managed to rhop my gun using the same bucking but its only temporary until my new bucking comes in. I had to do it because the bucking it came with some how got tore when i was adjusting the hopup.

"Barrel length is 550mm.
Hopup unit is not compatible with AEG barrels but works with VSR barrels and bucking.
Standard configuration gets 360fps.
Very low cylinder to barrel volume for a airsoft sniper rifle.
R hop, SP160 spring and a Angle custom 6.01 by 450mm barrel got me 1.9 joules with .4g bbs. Also had to cut the outer barrel shorter to accommodate the shorter inner barrel.
Considering cutting both the outer and inner barrels even shorter to increase FPS.

But all things considered, still worth the buy.

"Test fired it 10 times, 5 with 0.2 and 5 with 0.4. After my last shot, the bolt wouldn't go back all the way and I'm pretty confident the sear broke. I haven't even used it in a field unfortunately

"Not super impressed so far. Doesn't come out of the box with adjustable anything, including hop-up for me (missing hop-up screw). Lots of wear already on the bolt and I have fired maybe 10 bb's through it. Obviously broke it down to check for debris, etc. Found nothing to create such friction. If I would have paid maybe $50-75 more for this gun I wouldn't be stopping at just a negative review. Seems upgradable as hell but don't know if I will spend the extra money/time. This might be added to my 10 year old brother's collection (if he can even pull the bolt).

+nice minimalist style
+easily upgradable
+affordable
+/- Weight (I don't buy the drop test statement personally, pistol grip latch WILL break sooner than later, dropped or not)
- not quite as advertised (no adjustable stock/cheek)
- missing parts(hopup adjustment screw)
- bought the proprietary flat .50 style muzzle break which has no set screw or place for set screw and sits at about a 65 degree angle when tightened or just wiggles freely if at the desired angle. Yes I realize I can use some thin plumbing tape or similar but I shouldn't have to.

"Great gun for the first 20 shots, after that the trigger sear stopped disconnecting from the piston and it no longer shoots. After opening the thing up to figure out what's wrong I found all the screws holding the trigger mech plate to the trigger box to be pre stripped for me! After getting two of the three screws out I had to use a pair of pliers to get the third (which ended up being bent explaining why it was so hard to remove). The trigger parts all fit super loosely inside and there is so much play in them it's no wonder the sear won't disengage the piston. On top of that the material they chose to use doesn't wear well at all and I found the trigger box and piston housing both to be filled with metal shavings.
TL;DR: Great feeling/ looking gun with tons of accessories, broke half way through the first mag, crappy internal parts. Do not recommend.
