Elite Force / Umarex H&K Licensed MP7 A1 PDW Airsoft AEG by VFC (Model: Gun / Tactical Package)

"I got one of these and WOW. The tappet did break, but I was able to 3d print one as a replacement. Other than that. HOLY MOLY this thig SHREDS. Reaches 28 rps, crisp feeling spammable trigger, nice hefty polymer, not cheap plastic. It has a nice 400 fps with a 11 inch barrel hidden in this guy. The gearbox isn't upgradeable, but other than that, you dont need to upgrade this. VFC did an amazing job out of the box with this thing. P.S also is QBS so you can zip your power down pretty fast. Overall solid gun!

Pros:
Small and compact
High velocity
Decent mag price
Comfortable
Heavy duty nylon polymer.

Cons:
Tappet plate breaks under stress. (easy fix, redwolf carries em for $6)
Grip can be to big for smaller hands.
Proprietary system.

ALSO AMAZING FOR A Snake-Eyes COSPLAY

"i've had this since october, and its absolutely perfect. trigger response is the best i've seen, fire rate is impeccable, groupings are good, the whole 9 yards. i was worried about the notoriety of this gun's problems but i haven't experienced any. the only 2 jams i've had through the ~1k rounds put through were easily fixed by firing a shot in full auto. the follower isn't too bad, you just need to really slam in the mags, which is fine because everything is really durable. everything is proprietary but unless you want to HPA tap it, the performance is enough to keep it running without modifications. battery is easy to get in if you understand how, getting it out is hell but it doesn't take too long with careful work and proper tools. only other things are defective tappet plates which i haven't run into, but both evike and elite force's customer service is really good if something is happening to get a brand new working model. TL:DR performance is good, dont worry about its notoriety.

"Ok I just got this gun for cqb and let me tell you something this gun is AMAZING the rate of fire feels more than the description says it is the trigger response is unbelievable for a stock gun and the range and accuracy for such a small gun is incomparable. If you like the mp7 and want an aeg GET THIS

"I have played 2 full day sessions so far and I LOVE this thing. It is super lightweight/maneuverable and a dream to shoot. It does have magazine issues, limited battery space, and difficult disassembly/reassembly.

PROS
-AMAZING Trigger Response
-Great ROF
-Solid range and accuracy for a small package (easily engage 150-250ft)
-Super lightweight enables fast aggressive play
-Overall construction super sturdy (i fell in a swamp with no problems)
-Integrated grip feels nice
-Super sexy

CONS
-Magazines are annoying (follower gets stuck in mag on occasion, this is fixed with a good whack)
-Limited battery space (wired outside to peq box)
-Tamiya connectors (easy swap to DEANS or XT60, will not have room inside gun however)
-Very difficult to work on internals
-Some have shipped with defective tappet plates

"Best AEG I have ever purchased.

"Despite the price tag, this gun is a force to be reckoned with

PROS
SUPER snappy trigger and high ROF
Solid build, very little to no wobble whatsoever
No need to upgrade (inner barrel maybe, but this isn't designed to be a sniper rifle)

CONS
Price
Battery space (Tenergy 11.1v fits snugly)
No side rails (can get G36 rails for cheap)

NOTE: The threading is 12mm+ and the flash hider can be removed and replaced with an adapter and suppressor/tracer unit

"This gun is amazing. Easy to switch and move with cause it's a small weapon but it reaches too and the trigger is real snappy. Battery room is small but a small 11.1 I got to work. My favorite gun I have right now. Fell in love with it.

"Fielded it twice now over two weekends great little gun. Out of the box it shot 375 with .20's. Great vfc externals.

"I got this gun two weeks ago. I lov(ed) it. The style, look, compact feel, build quality. It shot laser beams in stock form. W/ the hop up dialed in and .28s I was amazed how accurate it was, and with good distance too. Eventually, like any other normal adult, I said I want to change my orange tip to black. Bad idea. The way this gun is designed is a nightmare. There is nothing retaining the whole front portion of the outer barrel. Couple that with the orange tip being super glued and screwed on, you WILL twist the barrels as you crank the orange tip off. For me this caused the hop up unit to contort, and then my bbs were all over the place, or misfiring. Eventually, I fixed it, or so I though, then it just stopped firing. 1 bb got jammed in the barrel / hop up, and I couldn't remove it. THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO TAKE THIS GUN APART TO TROUBLESHOOT. Also, the quick change spring isn't true quick change, as you have to remove a backing plate for the charge handle. It was such a nightmare to even begin tampering with, I just sold it on Ebay a fraction of the price. Love the gun as is, but don't expect to upgrade it like an AR or M4 platform. Even swapping flash hiders can be a disaster.

"Nothing wrong with the gun itself, worked perfectly fine right out of the box. You just need to be careful when putting on another flash hider as the inner barrel sticks out past the threads a good half inch. If you put on another flash hider that doesn't compensate for that it pushes the barrel in and rips the hop up bucking. Other then that the gun is great.

"So I couldnt really give this gun a 3.5 stars so its gets 3. Let me start out by saying this isnt a bad aeg whatsoever. There are just a few reasons why this doesnt get a perfect score from me. The first reason being the price tag. Now I got licking and purchased this bad boy with extra mags while it was on sale. So I paid the base price of just the gun and got a bit something extra. However if that werent the case I would've been dishing out 400 bucks for just the gun. Now it does perform beautifully and it is the only mp7 aeg on the market worth its salt right now, but in the grand scheme of things there are just far better fieldable options for that price point. Now, that being said, if you ABSOLUTELY just want an mp7 , one that isnt gas operated than this gun is definitely for you. It's not without its annoying problems though, which male up the rest of the reasons for this replicas score.

The gun is for all instances proprietary. Everything down to the parts internally and externally. Which can be a con for some. Now I understand that this is a new replica with no previous popular gearbox format to base itself on so I'll give its proprietary nature a pass. However the magazines , also proprietary mind you, are very expensive. This wouldnt be such and issue to me, if their construction was better. The only mags available are mid caps and every new mid cap is going to run you an additional 30 ish dollars. Which is already quite insane. But they are all very cheap feeling plastic. They actually look alot like something youd see in a clear abs Springer if you look at them long enough. I get that the magazines are what make the unique "cant fire when empty" feature work but yikes.

My final complaint about the gun is that the extremely limited battery space is an absolute pain to deal with. Even with the batteries specifically made for this model, they take alot of fiddling to properly fit. I spend anywhere from five to 10 minutes getting mine in without problems.

Now with all that out of the way, the gun itself is constructed pretty good , I can see it taking some dings and not being affected. I've read where the mags have had feeding issues but I havnt ran into that problem yet. The gun performs very well, and is by all accounts an amazing performer. even at range out in the woods , I have no issues making shots. If you do decide to drop the immense amount of money to field this thing, it will be a good gun for you, just know that for what youd pay to field this , you could have got something far better.

"I really enjoy the gun and everything within it seems to function nearly flawlessly.

However, the MAGAZINES for the gun are a severe weak point. Every time I've ran this beauty a magazine (or two) has jammed up and stopped feeding requiring a reload. I can't give this gun a score higher than a 3/5 if the magazines can't feed into it reliably. I really think it's due to the somewhat needless cutoff function of the magnetic magazine follower. It doesn't seem to keep BBs from sliding past it and getting into the spring and making follower stuck. I really hope the magazines get fixed somehow so that I can give this gun the rating it really deserves with how snappy and quick it is!

Pros:
- Snappy
- Fast ROF
- Compact size w/ remarkable range

Cons:
- Batteries are obviously restricted
- Magazines become maracas easily
- Wish it came with side rails

"mine broke after 3 mags. i did not use the silencer... waiting on my new one will delete later

"Really loved the gun for the few matches they worked, but ultimately had to return, twice. First one I had was really odd with it's FPS, only coming out around 250, eventually sent it back and got a new one. Second one, first game day the piston jammed up and stopped working entirely. After back-to-back Lemons, as much as I enjoyed it when it worked, it was too questionable on durability for a $400+ AEG.
