Double Eagle M3 3-Round Burst Multi-Shot Shell Loading Airsoft Shotgun (Model: Retractable Stock)

"This shotgun is a good sidearm for a budget player. It is build good and feels very solid for a $50 plastic gun. Iron sights are terrible but its a shotgun. If you are planing on useing this a a sidearm at all I would stay away from the full stock versions. So on to performance. When I first shot this gun with .25 gram bbs it was horible. The spread was like 5ft after 30ft. Then I clean the barrels and the range and accuacy greatly improved. Shooting at 30ft the spread was about 6 inches. After 30 ft the spread starts to get bigger. I would say the max range would be about 100 ft but it wont be very consistent. I would say the Max one shot or effective range would be about 80-85 ft.

I would say worth the money but remember its a shotgun not an assault rifle.

Buy more shells!

"I bought this gun last weak and it came in the mail today. My friend has this gun and i played with it and i had to get one! I have two minor complaints. One the pump is hard to pull so if you are a smaller person i would not suggest this gun for you. The other complaint is the stock. The buffer tube gets loose. it wobbles and the tube holds the pistol grip on so when the buffer tube gets loose so does the pistol grip. The screw that holds the buffer tube is inside the buffer tube so you need a 9 inch hex key to tighten it. So if i were you i would get the full stock.

PROS:

Good quality

nice fps for cqb

durable sling mounts

decent range

good iron sights

Cons:

Buffer tube gets wobbly

hard to cock for smaller persons

mine did not come with a shell

"This is a great gun for indoor/CQB if you are looking for something different than just a pistol or semi-firing and AR or SMG, Though it is true, it is a little bit hard to pump, I'm scrawny and I got used to it fairly quickly. I suggest getting extra shells with your purchase- you are going to need them. It has great performance in CQB, once I got good with the pump, that is, I was racking up kills like it was nobody's business. Personally I think that this gun works best while playing the objective if you are not a person who is afraid to rush. It is a little bit long, but with management, it is a very nice tool for rushing in, poping off a few shots, then leaving with the enemy flag or something like that- at least that is how I used it most effectively.

This is not a camper's tool! You will be disappointed if you try to sit back with this in a CQB environment. Is great if you want something with a unique feel yet you still want to be effective.

One thing however, don't try using this as your primary weapon in field. I did this to experiment, and you will get outranged and outclassed by everyone else's AEG's. I will however, test this out as a secondary weapon that I'm going to hold on my back next time I go to field.

Recommended purchases: I suggest extra shells, as you only get 10 shots with each shell, and a shotgun bandolier that will hold your shells is not a bad idea, It makes you look like rambo, while holding your shells effectively. IT WILL fall off when you run, however if you don't secure it. I secure my bandolier simply with two safety pins, and then I'm good to go.

Overall a great gun to use in CQB if you want to rush/play OBJ and very affordable.

"this is an awesome shotgun hurts and has a good range . it has a very good spread at 45 feet but is still accurate recommend .23 gram bbs because they fly perfect and hits in tight spreads with this weight buy it it wont be a mistake!!!!!!!

"this is buy far the best shotgun i have ever seen it is not to heavy so you shouldent use it as a primary wepon and the only reason i gave it 4 stars is because its a little hard to cock but you should get used to it.

"I LOVE MY SHOTGUN!!! Definitely worth the price! Perfect for CQB games. The tri shot spread makes hitting targets so easy when firing from the hip. Very durable and feels spectacular!

Pros:
Accurate (It's a tri shot!)
Durable material

Cons:
Hard to pump (takes getting used to)
Sometimes bb's will roll out of the barrel. Not sure what is happening there

"This is probably the best of all the tri-shots because of all the stuff you can do. I put my EOTECH on the the rail and use the turning ability of the stock to my advantage when I "Slice the pie" Mine was a Double Eagle and I think all of them are

PRO:

Affordable
Tri-Shot
Rail
Sights
Retractable and turnable stock
Surprisingly easy to cock

CONS:

Inner Barrels stop before the end of the outer barrel
Not alot of range
A little too much spread for me (might just be my gun)
Stock and pistol grip are REALLY wobbley (needs a long philips screw to tighten it)

Id give it a 4/5

"This is a great gun, definitely recomend buying it. Got a full body shot from about 60 feet away with all three rounds :D

PROS
-hefty about 5 pounds or so
-powerful (mine shoots right through cans most of the time)
-great range and spread with .2, but if your going for accuracy you should probably use .23 or so
-awesome look
-big (about 3 feet long)
-just all around AWESOME
-adjustable rear sights
-metal barrel tubes

CONS
-Evike sent me mine with only 1 shell :'(
-also one screw from the adjustables sights was missing :/
-eats ammo like you wouldnt believe, pro or con i guess (get extra shells!!!)

So yeah, definitely buy this, 4/5 stars cuz my gun was missing a screw

BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Let's just start off with a sigh for the beauty of this gun; *sigh* Ok, now on to the review ;D

I just got this gun today and first impression it looks, without a doubt, SEXY. I was actually suprised at the weight, not what I expected. It was reeeeeaally light, which that can be a good thing, but I wanted something a little heavier. Oh well. The retractable stock is really cool. not only does it give it that awsome, intimidating (sexy) look, it's very helpful for CQB, and if you want to go long range just extend the stock. The gun came with a small bag of .12g bbs...I would definately recomend .20g or heavier. I actually used .25g bbs and hit a target with all 3 bbs from 40yrds away. Along with this I bought the six pack of 30rd hi-cap shells and that $5 shell holder which I would recomend to whoever gets a shell loading shotgun. As far as the

Oh, and about all those people who said "it's hard to pump"...I actually think it's easier to pump than my 12 guage shotgun, so...;D

So, right out of the box the thing is a beast and I can't wait to use it in our next skirmish

Pros:

great gun for the price
shoots 3 bbs at a time
looks. Freakin. SEXY.
Using .20g bbs or heavier can score you a double kill from about 30yards

"i havent gotten this gun yet but ive seen many reviews about it and you would notice that this is very high end, i got to see the full stock virsion up close and i have to say its very sturdy, i dont know what people are saying about the pump being really hard to cock, i find its pretty easy to do. one thing thats really annoying me not is it said it would come in 5 to 6 days because i also ordered a shell pouch but thats besides the point but its been 8 days and the package hasnt come yet. so i give it four stars out of five becuse its sturdy and well built, its not that hard to cock and its pretty authentic, though the shipping isnt really what they said. also as a P.S. the shells only hold about 10 shots worth so get extras

"I love this thing.
My friends have dubbed it the "Monster"
I take this to the local CQB field and I still compete with the AEG's that I'm facing.

HOWEVER.

I STRONGLY recommend getting the full stock version.

I really regret not doing so.

The stock on this thing is a JOKE!
It wobbles, it jiggles, and that's when its at it's shortest length!

Learn from my mistake, get the full stock.

"Wow. That sums it up. This is a great gun for beginners who want to play low FPS. It's sturdy and has great range with a tight shot formation. It is a hard pump shotty but you just have to be a man about it and push forward with the pistol grip and back with the slide.

Pros: Sturdy, triple shot, pretty much full metal, good accuracy.

Cons: I know it's a retractable stock but it's seriously loose, the pistol grip shifts a lot (I can almost remove it by pumping the gun).

Overall it's pretty good beside those cons its a great gun.

"I bought this gun for $15 more than Evike sells it for :(

Pros: Tight groupings with the 3 shot burst, the bbs kinda curve away from eachother once the range hits 60-100 ft.

4 free shells and a shell holder

Hasn't jammed on me once and I've been quadruple-feeding the thing on purpose.

Slam-firing doesn't hurt the gun at all...

Great fun to shoot

Has a rail that ACTUALLY fits optics on it! :D

Retractable stock is awesome, looks nice, is entirely rubberized, and smells like BBQ when new. I just love smelling the gun because of that. Mmmm....steak.

Cons: Hard to cock (the pump is not lubed at all, if you lube it it will be 3x easier to cock the gun.)

A little weird using a airsoft version of a shotgun meant for auto/semi auto firing as a pump action

Once you go past 60-100 ft, the bb's just kinda curve away from your target or drop.

My sling holder in front of the pump got loose and just slides around. Nothing a little loctite wont handle.

Absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to open this thing up past the barrel & pump. Its like the entire shotgun outside of the barrel is molded together....not good if you want to fix the gun or upgrade it.

No conceivable hopup

Back sights are loose and have come out on me before. I think the manufacturer tried to make them adjustable...but failed.

Retractable stock is prone to "retract" back to its shortest position if too much pressure is applied to it.

Overall, it was a good buy. I would buy it all over again, if it was as cheap as Evike's prices.

"I bought this gun and it is amazing being able to shoot three shots at once is a great thing to have with a shot gun. There was a small flaw with my gun though but it is easily fixable its within the adjustable stock its that after a period of time the screw inside the metal rod comes loose ever so slightly but it can easily be fixed with a long phillips head screw driver. Other then that the gun works beautifully and i would highly recommend this shotgun.

"The gun arrived in i small bow. Surpisingly it was very heavy i would say 6 or 7 pounds. I opened it and it had i great feel great wieght etc. The shots out of the bow at around 315fps.Also the seperation of the bb's after about 30ft is enough to get a 2 person 1 shot kill. I couldnt realy think of anything i didnt like about the gun except the wobbly stock, but thats nothing a long allen rench cant fix;)

Pros:
Great weight
Not cheap plastic
Alot of metal
Great grip
Powerful

Cons:
Wobbley stock :/
