LCT LK-33 Full Metal Airsoft AEG (Model: LR-223)

"Over all I liked this gun (I got the LR223), it feels and looks like the real deal. My only real complaint is how deceiving the size of the battery compartment is

Pros:
- Looks really cool
- Built like a tank
- Mag release paddle isn't too stiff, unlike other G3 style guns from certain other brands
- HK slap
-Relatively quiet
- Rotary sights lock into position nicely and don't wobble side to side

Cons:
- Comedically stiff fire selector switch
- Battery space is smaller than expected despite being a full stock
- After taking out the pin for the stock, it is now more wobbly and weird

Notes
- Mags had a weirdly difficult time locking in at first, but after a few times inserting and removing they had no issues. Sort of like I had to break them in ???
- LR 223 mags fit in AK mag pouches

Probably gonna buy a second one

"I love the LCT LK33! It weighs about 9.2 pounds, full steel construction, quick spring change gear box and it comes with the black flash hider! 10/10 for the LCT LK33!

"So in my honest a opinion this gun deserves a 4/5 stars for mostly good reasons with 1-2 complaints.

Pros
- Nice weight and feels really sturdy.

- High capacity magazine that comes with the gun fits nice and snug with almost no play if any at all.

- A2 version has TONS of room for battery storage.

- ergonomic grip and feels really great to hold (material is a little smooth, advise some grit tape)

-selector switch is tight which is subjective to the person, I personally like a slightly tighter switch to avoid accidently rubbing or bumping.

- one of the most aggressive EBB I've used which I think is great!

-Overall great gun, shoots as mentioned 400~420

- HK slap (need I say anymore?)

Cons
honestly it was a bit hard to find things just from experience with issues with previous airsoft guns. all guns/airsoft guns have their quirks and issues but nothing major, (potentially...)

- magazine is very specific and require the LCT LK-33 magazines from LCT which are not cheap, bought two mid caps for $32 USD a piece. (Do note after doing research, mentions of feed issues from the mid caps due to weak a spring, however can be fixed with some tweaking)

- The selector switch does feel nice however noticed that sometimes when switching from semi to auto and back to semi the switch seemed to still be stuck in auto. could pose a problem when playing depending on field rules however maybe just needs to broken in. (also note that taking the gun apart could fix the issue. was noted that it could be an "LCT" issue that is known throughout their guns and the remedy would be to rebuild it, no definitive answer other than perhaps something needed to be shifted for it to work properly)

- buy a 25c 9.4v Lipo MINIMUM, with the EBB it drains quick and requires the extra power to get the bolt to move. recommends a 7.4v Lipo, switch to deans and run a 9.4v Lipo you will be golden.

- Customization and attachments are limited, go buy an M4/M16/or a MP5 if you want options.

- the price is on the steeper side and not everyone will have the wallet size to afford it.

notable mentions
- sights are welded

- i use to own a MP5 and was able to move my Matrix red dot (claw mount) over.

- weight seems to be evenly distributed throughout the gun however slightly more front heavy (towards the barrel)

Overall price to performance and what you get is a little high however you ultimately a amazing and solid gun. If for whatever reason this gun failed and was unfixable I would spare no expense to buy another, even despite the issues listed above which not everyone is subject to have the same issues or feel the same. I hope this review is helpful as there are not many reviews on the specific gun and really feels like hidden gem.

"Never bought an LCT before. I always wanted an HK33 replica for my airsoft collection, and I didn't want the ones made by other companies because I feel they don't do justice to the gun. I also heard a lot of good things about LCT's G3 replica, so I gave in and bought this gun...and wow this is amazing. The looks, the feel, the sounds. Now I can see why people love LCT guns so much, and now I'm one of them.

Pros:
-Full steel construction. It literally looks and feels like a real gun.
-Charging handle is sturdy and makes beautiful noises. You can also do the signature HK slap on this gun due to its steel construction.
-Comes with the original black flash hider.
-A lot of room for battery space whether you get the A2 or A3 version.
-A lot of available spare parts from LCT themselves.
-Overall attention to detail is spot on.

Cons:
-Comes with a hi-cap magazine. This could be a pro if you like hi-caps, but I preferred it came with a mid-cap.
-Doesn't have any trades or markings, not even fake or innocuous ones like caliber markings or fake serial numbers. It's understandable, and it's no big deal.
-Fire selector switch is a bit stiff.
-Furniture on this gun is awesome, but I wish they were textured a little bit better. They are kind of too smooth for me.

"I would not spend $430+ for this.

I got it on sale $339. I don't understand why no one is being honest about these guns and airsoft in general.

Out of the box it has a nice weight to it. 9 or 10 lbs

The polymer Slim Handguard wobbles alot but its placed in by a pin.

The Mp5 Style Stock Wobbles up and down a lot with little pressure. It's also places in by a pin.

Fake bolt that reveals your hop up shakes ALOT.

Hop up is good but there isn't any replacement by LCT.

The Rotary Hop Up Wheel has very limited Clicks. Like when you adjust your hop up? It seems to be only 5-6 positive clicks before you have to turn it the other way. My Kwa-Krytac have up to 12 positive clicks. Just something you should know.

APPARENTLY PROWIN AND MAXX M4/M16 ROTARY STYLE HOP UP WORKS. I never tried it but read some reviews on reddit and said it does work.


The 600rd High Cap Magazine gets stuck and doesn't come out unless you hit the magazine button hard. The paddle doesn't work and gets stuck too.

Fire Selector is good and clicks into place.

Trigger is nice with an 11.1.

Front and rear sight are good and don't wobble or move. Except the rear one it kinda jiggles a little bit but it won't throw off your shots or anything.

Outer Barrel doesn't move like the dumb VFC MP5 one does.

Upper and lower Receiver doesn't move or has any side to side movement. It's solid and held in by 2 pins.

Hop up chamber is still good even after struggling with the magazine.

You think you would dent/damage the hop up lip by accidentally inserting the magazine wrong but it seems to be ok. No visible damage or anything. Since there isn't any LCT G3 Style Hop Up chambers available be very gentle with inserting your mag.



EVERY AIRSOFT GUN WILL COME WITH PROBLEMS.

But PLEASE stop making it seem like EVIKE and Airsoft guns in general don't come with Defects. I understand we gotta make companies and brands looks good but C'MON.
Write a review and explain what you got. Save us time and money dudes.


Becuase no one ever points out these things i wasn't prepared and now i have to send it back and waste more time and money.
I RETURNED 5 Different (this will be my 6th) Airsoft Rifles because of Defects that no one mentions or prepares you for.
