"Out of the box it is an amazing gun. I got it on sale for under $300. If this is your first GBBR its an amazing rifle. Because it is an MWS Clone (the best gas rifle system) all MWS parts for TM are compatible. To get the most out of mine, I added the 4UAD bucking, 275 maple 6.02 mws barrel, Iron airsoft buffer (2 weights), a dytac hopup adjuster, and guns modify reinforced nozzle assembly. Im shootings 315 with .25's at 60°F. I was originally chopping BB's on the stock set up so getting a heavy buffer is very much recommended. The gas well on the factory mag isnt the biggest so i would recommend picking up some of the guns modify MWS mags. Overall I love this gun and very much recommend it.

"AMAZING PRODUCT! I purchased the MWS Gen 3 and the package included the upgraded QPQ bolt ($200), a functional bolt catch, forward assist, and safety. DO NOT FORCE SAFETY ON WHILE THE RIFLE IS UNCOCKED. If you manage to force the selector into the safe position while uncocked do not under any circumstances pull the charging handle back. You can easily damage the firing mechanism like a real firearm. I purchased this rifle for $279 during a sale. Buy it now while it's still in stock! I haven't picked up my aeg since. Once you go gas blowback you never go back!

"It’s a 1:1 clone of a MWS for half the price. You really can’t go wrong with it. Perfect platform to start a new build on.

"You really wont find a better GBBR for the price. Only aftermarket parts I would recommend is a weighted buffer/buffer pads to adjust bolt travel, slightly stronger buffer spring, good inner barrel/bucking, a laylax/DYTAC hop arm and you are golden. Will be the longest lasting best preforming GBBR you will ever own for the price. If your nozzle breaks go with the GM v3.5 nozzle.

"Zero complaints with this GBBR. Absolutely loving it. I was considering the TM MWS but a friend kept telling me about this EMG Noveske that was half the price with the same reliable gas system so I had to give it a look. Loved the feel of it and it was evident that I couldn’t justify the price gap for the TM over the EMG. the EMG also has a more robust return nozzle spring to safely use with green gas which the TM does not and will need to be replaced. Mag comparability is pretty nice. I bought CYMA stanags and they feed perfectly with zero issues with the EMG nozzle. I’m also running Guns Modify PMAGs with zero issues. The gun is chronoing at 330fps, shoots accurately and is light weight. For use indoors, I love it and I have zero regrets.

"Love what Double Eagel is doing currently with their airsoft offerings. This is a solid choice if you're wanting a budget gbbr. Its a solid build out the box and check all the boxes I was looking for in a budget gbbr. I was able to get 2 and a little less than half mags of bbs on one fill of green gas, which is decent. Also I'm so glad the flash hider wasn't glued making easy to take off and not scuff the finish. It's also nice to see an included metal 3 pring flash hider. I honestly have no complaints about this replica. I will definitely be on the look out for mote Double Eagel Airsoft replicas in the future. They have been putting out some high quality products for a budget friendly price.

"I've purchased this DE MWS Noveske model at the beginning of Decemeber 2023. It came with the Noveske logo on the dust cover instead of the 300 BLK print. The bolt carrier group (bcg) looks different from the one pictured (better). Plus, the gap between the bcg and the from receiver is exactly like the TM original model (barely a gap). I was worried that it would have that large gap in the window but it doesn't. Yay! I love the way it feels and shoots. However, mine was registering around 1.88 joules with .4 or .43. Therefore, I couldn't use it on the field that day. One easy fix is to change to a shorter inner barrel then the stock 250mm one. I've ordered a 200mm Unicorn Airsoft 6.03 NITROFLON Coated Brass Inner Barrel but haven't received it yet. Not sure what FPS or joules it will give me but I will provide an update when tested. Another way to lower the FPS and joules is to get an NPAS but none were in stock that I wanted to buy. Don't let the gap deter you like it almost did for me. I think DE has corrected the issue. Check out the Facebook TM MWS group for a picture I've posted of the dust cover and bolt. The pistol grip is comfortable and the rail is so streamline. The orange tip was hard to remove. I had to dremel out the ball bearing from the bottom of the plastic orange tip. Then use a heat gun to loosen the glue in order to twist off. But once removed, you can attach the metal 3-prong flash hider that was included.
This TM clone is awesome!

"Probably the best entry level GBBR to get right now. A true MWS 1:1 clone with aftermarket compatibility. But it has some issues.
The only real issue with the one I got: original MWS stanags and possibly CYMA lancers aren't a 100% fit.
MWS stanags: You will have misfeeds and even break the nozzle if you don't shim the magwell with velcro. To do this, put a piece of soft velcro just under the hop up chamber in the magwell. I believe this also affects the lancer mags for the CGS if you use it on this replica. Your original mags will still fit just fine. I'm not sure if Guns Modify mags fit better since I don't have one but I heard that was the case.
The nozzle; With the standard DE mag it came it, it feels like the gas output is not that high causing it to feel sluggish when shooting. Compared to the Guns Modify nozzle, I noticed it became snappier and recoils more. I even tried the DE mags in my CYMA CGS and it felt fine to shoot compared to the Noveske. A small, personal issue but is a cheap upgrade if it bothers you.
Externals are great for the price except for the stock. No QD slots on it, so you will have to either tie your sling, buy extra sling mounts or a replace the stock.
Shooting the gun is accurate and consistent. It's my first MWS so I can't compare it to the original.
Overall, this is excellent if you want to dip your toes into the GBBR world and have a great performing replica out of the box with the provided Double Eagle magazines. If you want to use MWS stanags or CYMA lancers, you need to shim the magwell if you notice excessive wobble. The one upgrade I would get immediately is the Guns Modify nozzle.
All these issues could have been resolved with newer batches, but still keep this in mind when purchasing one.

"Stating that it's a MWS for the DE N4 is a true statement. It can take aftermarket parts like the trigger boxes, selector switches, hop up housing and adjustments, bolt assembles etc. Do you need to upgrade all of them? No.
They have added reinforced parts that a lot of TM owner would have to upgrade like the nozzle spring and the hop up arm.
The magazines don't perform well sadly but the Guns Modify magazines work perfectly in them.
Would highly recommend for anyone's first gbbr compared to the cyma gbbr variant when it comes to parts compatibility.

"First Impressions:
Excited to get my first GBB rifle. I intend to use the rifle for basic training and drills when I don't have the time or can't get to the range and when the range doesn't allow movement or standing with a rifle. Right out of the box, although still much lighter than the real steal, it did present itself much closer to the real thing than some of my other AEGs. It also may make an appearance in a game or two once I can afford three to four more magazines.
With that said, there were a few, not-so-great things that jumped out at me right away. 1. the butt stock rattles like no other rifle I have, which is a bit annoying. Nothing some gorilla tapes on the buffer tube can't fix but still a letdown. 2. If I look at the dust cover the wrong way, it will open. I can't seem to get it to stay shut. Also, the dust cover that came with my rifle does not say 300 Blk - it only has the Noveske logo (not a bad thing in my book). 3. This is a little picky but the finish on the hand guard within the M-Lok cuts is a little rough. 4. Sadly, there is no QD point near the back of the rifle. There isn't one on the butt stock and the sling plate at the buffer tube doesn't have a QD point or any way to connect a sling - my bad for not noticing in the manufacturer's photos. 5. Being my first GBBR, I didn't know what to expect but I didn't expect the buffer spring to make so much noise. It sounds like a toy and takes away from the recoil sensation to some degree.
On the flip side, even with the aforementioned issues, I do enjoy training with this rifle. The bolt catch after the last round does it for me. I can load three BBs in one magazine run a 2X Mozambique drill, and reload with another magazine and drop the bolt (although the bolt drop isn't nearly as dramatic as the real thing). This helps when training for the real steal because it is much closer to the real thing. The trigger is somewhat similar to the real thing although it's a bit mushy. The reset is clear and relatively crisp. Unlike what someone else said in the comments, so far I'm satisfied with the magazine - no issues yet, knock on wood. Keep in mind, that the mags are much heavier than the AEG counterparts. Not as heavy as a fully loaded real 556 mag but close by a few ounces. The inner barrel is longer than the outer barrel by a few millimeters. I think only the rifles going to Great Britain have shorter inner barrels due to their local laws. Bolt catch and release function fine. Mag release functions as it should.
Overall it's a cool rifle. It's not perfect and although it's a great training aid, I do wish issues like the buffer spring noise and the dust cover lock could be rectified to make the training experience that much more real. With that said, at the price I paid for it thanks to the Epic Deal and the $25 coupon code, $256 for this rifle is nothing to complain about.

"Got it today and I love it it’s really fun to shoot but on the dust cover it did not have the 300 thing on it but so cool 9/10 do recommend for people who want to play/ try a gbbr.
by Lloyd P. on 12/12/2023
"Did not come with the 300 blackout dust cover instead it just has a NOVESKE logo on it. Mine came with 3 prong metal flash hider ( which scratches easily) also sounds like a tuning fork when you shoot. The orange tip is held in with glue and a small pin ON TOP of a detent screw so removal was tricky.
The inner barrel is full length unlike what people were saying and pokes out of the outer barrel just barely (any flash hider will cover it). Feels very similar to a TM MWS but range and accuracy isn't quite as good ootb. Make sure you clean it before you run it because mine came with a bunch of dirt particles on the trigger pack and inside barrel which is typical. It came with the SOPMOD stock like in the picture and not the MOE SL style stock.
