E&L Airsoft New Essential Version AKS-74N Airsoft AEG Rifle

"great gun, for the price, it outperforms lct in quality and shooting

"Very good rifle, well made and easy to use. this is an easy one to recommend.

A few notes:
1. the threads are 24mm, not 14mm.
2. some of the dimensions aren't perfectly 1:1 with a real steel AKS-74N, so just because something says it will work with an AKS-74N, doesn't mean that it will work with this.
3. As others have noted, it's picky with mags. The E&L 120 rounders work just fine, so I'd stick to those if you can.

"Everything is flawless, except for the furniture quality, really cheap wood. I swapped it out for LCT furniture and overall it's a better / cheaper package than an LCT AK. Phenomenal value for money if you're looking for a project gun.

"I have had mine for a couple months and used it all day at a walk-on event. Range was amazing with the proper ammo, build quality is fantastic, every piece of metal on the outside is steel. The stock gearbox sounds very good. Motor is not great, but the older E&L m170 motors (used in Gen2/Platinum) can be had for very cheap. The gun is picky about magazines so be prepared to try several brands out. CYMA and LCT magazines do not work, but Action Army Hi Caps work, and the E&L magazines are quite good. Overall amazing gun, worth every penny and so much more. Outperforms LCT in my experience and are much cheaper, so if you are looking for an AK this is the one for you.

"I absolutely love mine, motor isn’t amazing but this gun can reach out with the proper bbs and hop up setting. Runs great on an 11.1, very accurate and feels great in the hands.

"This is pretty well built gun. Feels nice in my hands. The wood is different from the previous generations but it is still nice. The midcaps I found that fit without modification are mag brand and blue box.

"This Is one of the nicest guns i've ever owned. The Quality is just Amazing and is a great replica.
The Motor is Not the best but the stock internals are better than most by far.
Would Buy again

"This replica is really nice and well put together. The internals are pretty good for the price, the metal is durable and does not wiggle, and it comes with a full metal muzzle brake. The wood is a little cheap, but that's expected

Pros:
Great range and accuracy for the price
Realistic weight (may be a con)
Folding stock makes the replica much shorter when needed
Magazine that comes with it does not wiggle at all

Cons:
When switching from semi to auto, auto doesn't work. Auto will also sometimes lock up in between firing
Doesn't fire the first BB after a dry reload
Magazine it comes with has a pretty weak spring
