"MATRIX SPORTSLINE M4 AIRSOFT AEG RIFLE W/ G2 MICRO-SWITCH GEARBOX,
I recently purchased the Matrix M4 Sportsline AEG for $99.00 on sale. The model I got was the M4 COMMANDO version, which is the smallest model, (great as a backup to my Sniper rifle). When I got the package, it was in a nice Matrix box. Inside the gun was nicely secured. After checking for damage, I grabbed a charged 9.6v battery, 25g bb's, and fired it.
Pros:
Sturdy body
Nice RESPONSIVE micro-switch gearbox
Great ROF (for $99)
300 rd metal magazine
Good FPS
Pretty dang ACCURATE


Cons: Have NOT found any.

"I recently picked this up as a backup/loner AEG, but after giving it a test run out in the field I gotta say that it's a seriously well performing AEG right out the box. The stock hop-up and inner barrel with some minor dialing in had no issues and hopped bbs flat and very straight for a stock barrel. Now the real money in my opinion is in this AEG's micro-switch trigger which makes semi-auto on this baby super consistent with no accidental double or triple fire and has a functional trigger response for quick shooting. Now let's talk about the polymer receiver which EVEN has a plastic buffer tube and plastic buffer tube plate.. while not aesthetically pleasing in its finish, cuts down the weight and helps give it a good balance. Last, but not least I would recommend replacing the battery stock in the long run. The battery stock it comes with is functional, but of low quality and there are better budget friendly options out there.

In short,

PROS: Micro-Switch Trigger w/mosfet runs great with 25C burst from an 11.1v Lipo.

Good balance and Lightweight.

*My opinion* No EBB shenanigans, completely unnecessary feature in nearly all cases.

Good stock hop-up and inner barrel. No modifications needed out of the box.

CONS: In the long run, this gun is not going to be super upgradable aesthetically beyond popping in MOE hand
guards to add more accessory options. (Would not sink more money into this one)

Low quality stock, would replace but it is not an immediate issue.

No buffer tube sling point for using a 1-point sling, have to use a 2-point sling to carry it stock.\

Orange Flash Hider is secured with a metal pin on the bottom of barrel, not impossible but annoying to
remove. (Recommend caution in removing as metal pin is recessed into barrel which prevents orange tip
from rotating.)

"I’ve been playing airsoft for almost 7 years and I’ll say one thing. This gun is good straight out of the box. I bought the tan RIS version (wanted to get the black one but oh well.)
I’ll just go ahead and list the pros and cons.
Pros:
-Very sturdy and well made gun, doesn’t rattle when you shake it and there are no loose parts.
-The ris is full metal AND it is an mk18 mod 1 style ris which I’m a big fan of.
-Lots of space to put on the ris but it’s all down to personal preference.
- Shoots really hard, for me it shot around 390 FPS.
- Comes with a good metal magazine.
-The body itself is plastic (externals) but it’s not a cheap plastic, this can also be a pro because it makes the gun lighter but can be a con if the user wants a metal body, this part is all down to personal preference. Also no rusting.
-Nice flip up sights, very clear to see through
-Short rail perfect for cqb which this gun excels in, people complain that the gun is too short but it’s actually supposed to be short considering it’s an mk18. Though this gun is good for outdoor play too.
-Price is excellent considering how good the gun is.
-Really good, I mean really good trigger pull.
Cons:
-Plastic body (more down to reference because I think this is a pro)
-FPS is too high for cqb play but can be lowered.
-The stock man, it’s just not the best. It’s dooable but should be replaced by like a magpul pts stock or any stock of your choice. With the stock, it’s been poorly cut so it’s a— meh? It’s possible just mine.
- I don’t like the pistol grip too but that’s up to personal choice. I just fine the grip not that comfortable without gloves. It’s best to replace it too.
- This might be just my gun but the front flip sight can be a little hard to flip up but it’s not a big issue.
-At longer ranges it can be a little unaccurate but isn’t noticeable much.

Overall I highly recommend this gun to both new and experienced players because it’s very fun, very affordable and really worth it especially for the price. This gun is certainly more better than a combat machine in so many ways. This gun is also able to be easily upgraded like most M4s.

My suggestions are only to use a Lipo which I recommend on any Aeg, get a better pistol grip and stock when you get the chance and that’s pretty much it. And also make the gun look sexy, it might become your main gun. (If you want more information, just dm me on my Instagram Communist.succ).

"Great gun feels nice in the hand shoots well and even comes with a complementarity trash bag

Pros: accurate, roatary style hopup, nice hi cap mag, great red dot, long lasting batteries and nice gearbox

Cons: hopup is plastic, mid cap is hard to load doesn't feed well at all you have to push the mag forward for the bb to load, mid cap pops out all the time and the mid cap wobbles like crazy I can just wobble it out without even pressing the mag release button, the fake bullets look stupid ( I recieved the bamf mid cap so I don't know anything about the other mid cap but the hi cap magazine fits great)

"First of all, this gun feels nice, and performs nicely.

If you are looking for an entry level, this I recommend. Otherwise, get a Krytac! (I have both!)

"Best starter package in the world, and i am a verteran player. This gun comes with electronic trigger gearbox they called the G2, and the gearbox is awesome.

"As my first airsoft gun it is really great my friends airsoft guns cant compete with this loved it 5 stars

"Comes with one wind up magazine, vertical foregrip, RIS, and crane stock

Plastic body, only has a little wiggle at the buttstock. Feels solid for the price.

"This gun is freaking awesome,especially for the price.

Only thing is that I'm constantly scared I'm going to break it because it's plastic and not metal, but after after a few drops I realize the body is actaully quite strong

This thing shoots great, and hits hard. It's awesome.

"I have had this gun for about five months now, no problems at all. The only thing I was worried about was the M203 being too heavy but it is not. The gun's FPS definitely is at least 370, if not more. I would recommend this gun as a starter gun.

"Definitely worth the money.
The G2 gearbox is great, nice electronic trigger and is easy to upgrade or downgrade with the quick change spring system.
The M203 takes all the shells I have
The Rifle takes all the m4 AEG mags and drum mag I have
The 9.6V battery included are highest quality possible
The smart charger included is high quality and useful
The red dot scope is by AIM Sports for real guns!

I say, if you don't have this, you need to buy it.

"I love this gun. This is a great first airsoft weapon. I bought five more mags when i bought this gun.

"This gun is highly recommended by me and my team

PROS:
- Accurate
- Comes w/ battery and charger, everything you need
- Comes with T1 red dot scope
- FPS


Overall, it's a good gun to start your Airsoft journey!

"It shoots very hard and accurate I recommend this gun greatly.
