King Arms PDW 9mm SBR Airsoft AEG Rifle (Color: Black & Red / Shorty)

"So I have been using this gun for a couple of months, bought as my first airsoft gun, and am overall happy with it. Mine shoots around 360 on 0.20 bbs (YMMV) and gets pretty good range. I had a problem on the first day I used it where it stopped shooting, something wrong with the motor I think and had to bring it in to get it fixed. Still would definitely recommend.

Pros:
Polymer body feels sturdy, never felt wobbly
Good size battery storage, fits my 11.1v well.
Pretty accurate
Takes mp5 mags

Cons:
Mags are kinda wobbly
There is this problem sometimes when firing it semi that it would stop firing, but switching to full auto and firing once fixes the problem. This might only be mine though.

"Ever since I’ve taken it out of the box I’ve had a blast with it

Pros:
-Very cheep alternative to other “9mm” style M4’s
-Very light
-Large personalization options

Cons:
-Doesn’t take a lot of magazines. My old mp5 hi-caps don’t work. The only hi caps that I’ve seen work are the ones licensed by hk
-The suppressed variants have a wonky suppressor that is “locktighted” to the outer barrel

Currently I’m putting a Polar Star Jack in mine.

"I just received the Tab Silenced version of this gun and it feels great. Being a polymer body doesn't distract from this gun at all. I do love that it comes with Two replaceable back grips (for big to larger hands). I have yet to shoot the gun which I will be doing tonight to test it out.

One thing to know for those of you looking at getting the 'Silenced' version.... the silencer (mock suppressor) is a joke. trash. get an after market one right away. It is basically a hollow tube, if you are looking directly at the barrel its like looking down a PVC pipe, it isn't even closed on the front of the barrel with a like hole were the bb comes out....complete junk (c'mon King Arms!! at least put on a cheap mock suppressor).

"I got the mlok version of this 9mm- it performs very well stock shoots straight and rate of fire is very good for the price overall the gun is very sturdy and the bang for your buck ratio is outstanding, the motor is a little weak so just replace it with a higher torque motor with neodymium magnets. However the orange tip is EXTREMELY annoying to get off. It was so bad that I had to cut the tip In half and start chipping away at the orange surrounding the threads because I could never twist it off, but even that wasn’t enough, so I had to use methyl ethyl ketone (m.e.k- a plastic eating acid) to get off the orange tip.
Pros
Accurate
Good rof
MOSFET
Sturdy
Cons
Good luck with the orange tip
The mag that comes with the gun is very wobbly and made of plastic

"nice gun but the hop up is kinda odd. at the lowest setting, the bb still shot up and to the left.

"No lie, this gun is pretty good!
came in, and is pretty tuned in.
No wobbly barrels
but the orange tip is a pain in the butt to strip off
so 4 stars!!

"The gun is solid.

Pros:
-the gearbox is amazing, but I am running it on a 7.4 not an 11.1
-the body is strong
- battery compartment is big enough to except most lipos

Cons:
-the rail system sucks, it bends and twists when using a vertical grip
-the tip was a pain. The outter barrel screws on to the upper. So you have to take that off then get it off

Would have been 5 stars if the rail system was not trash.

"It's a 4 star gun but 2 star internals. Had my piston break after a spring replacement. If you buy this get a better piston with metal teeth as this has NONE. otherwise king arms has made a great base platform for upgrades and I plan to enjoy my build when it's done.

"This is a unique gun that rivals any type of mp5. Overall the feel is great and the rate of fire is average. I expected a higher rate of fire for the weapon and a bit better range for the models with a longer barrel. the performance is similar to a $120 cyma AK which they make in compact sizes like this. I would recommend a cyma AK over this just because for the price the cymas are much more reliable.
PROS
cool look
built in supressor
CONS
low rate of fire (similar to a standard dmr build)
Cheap receiver (all plastic no metal)

"This was a great gun, key word “WAS” It was a great performer and felt great in my hands. This was until the magazine release suddenly became lose and popped of, rendering the gun useless, I tried to fix it but I keeps popping off. I will update this review if I can eventually fix it. If I could then 5 stars however I’ve seen another person with the same problem so I doubt it was just my gun.

"After days of play with it I have found it to competent if not a little lack luster.

Pros
Its a decent buy with good RAS
MP5 mags work well with it.
The barrel is an amplifier itself.
Stock is fully removeable to get to batter bay but also good for playing cornering in CQB
Fire rate is fast on a 7.4 volt.

Cons
Trigger locks up and goes to safety if you use it in quick succession. Very annoying in a comp game
The Magwell was loose on all mags. I fixed it by adding duct tape strips inside.
The flash hider is secured onto the -14 mm male end with a screw of some kind. It needed to be drilled out in order to remove it and add a tracer unit.

This is not a bad gun, Im sure that the trigger problems could be fixed If somebody competent worked on it. The magwell is annoying but again duct tape works well enough.

"I bought this gun awhile ago but the magazine it shipped with would not feed properly and I have never shot it. I thought I would be able to find one that would fit it but everytime I buy one they are too big.

"Got this in a BoA, not into the small guns sadly. It actually shoots amazing very strong polymer but the buffer tube is super small, can’t fit my 11.1 inside it. I still can’t figure out how to get this flash hider off roughest one by far.

"Bought this gun a couple weeks ago, used for two games since then. Used an 11.1 Lipo and a 9.6 NiMh and it works great. After a long game, the motor would begin to overheat along with the batteries. Had the motor contact loosened but the tech, and it still overheated. Also, mags do wobble in mag well.

"updated review.......played only a few weeks and now its FPS is erratic...jumping from 350 for 6 shots, to 305 for a few, then back up to 350. completely changed the whole hop up unit and bucking...same thing....so its obviously something in the gearbox...piston,nozzle etc...idk...but I'm just replacing the entire gearbox for a better one....just kind of upset that out of the blue there is an FPS issue.
