LCT LK-33 Full Metal Airsoft AEG (Model: A3)

"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.
