6mmProShop M1887 Terminator Lever Action Gas Airsoft Shotgun (Model: Standard)

"So I got this because I'm a big Terminator 2 fan. The gun is easy enough to use. Shoots pretty good but I haven't tried it in a game yet, and probably won't. Just doesn't seem like it would be very practical for a game. However I mostly bought this for a prop and I am very satisfied with it. Seems to be pretty strong as far as FPS goes. The ejecting shell feature is nice. Overall I'm happy with the piece, and am very happy adding it to the arsenal.

"Absolutely stunning and amazing airsoft shotgun! Love the feel, the weight and motion! Just received it today and it is truly one of the best airsoft guns to hold and own with looks, operation, and feel! I absolutely love it! I highly suggest it for anyone looking for an authentic and smooth shotgun!

"This is a pretty cool gun. nice weight, smooth action. if you have one of these and you can't get more than three shots out of it before it guns out of gas i have the solution. i take a small o-ring from a GBB magazine rebuild kit, and slide it over the fill stem on a gas can. This seals the fill extender that comes with the gun, and now i get 25 plus shots out of it before it needs to be filled with gas again.

"I have to start by saying I absolutely loved this shotgun! It was so much fun to play with, and with the shell-ejecting coolness added to it, it only made the shotgun better! The shotgun was also surprisingly accurate! although it doesn't have hard iron sights, aiming through the sight notch is still very accurate! The bbs don't really have very much spread compared to other shotguns, but that it perfectly fine with me! As far as gameplay goes, if you want to be dramatic, effective and have the most fun, this is your shotgun!

The only downside to the shotgun however is the loading arm. If you regularly run with a shotgun, either on a team or just that's what you prefer, over time the levering of the gun will wear on the loading arm internally. I owned my shotgun for about 7 months, played with it every weekend all day long. Don't get me wrong, I LOVED this gun, but with so much repetitive use, playing with my team, the loading arm eventually cracked and fell out of the gun. Unfortunately I don't think that the loading arm is sold as a replacement part, so the shotgun is effectively scrapped, but I miss playing with this so much! Would I ever purchase another? I am not too sure; it is a nice chunk of change.

Even though the shotgun broke on me, if I ever got the chance to fix and run with this gun again I wouldn't hesitate!! I love this gun so much, if you're planning on getting this as a secondary or for CASUAL play, absolutely!! If you normally run shotguns, this is super cool but may not last you very long. Overall I loved this gun and would do anything to play with it again!!!

"Warning!: You'll probably want to buy an extra gas tank adapter and a set of O-rings for this gun! This gun needs an o-ring and the adapter is too large for most gas nozzles!

Pros:
1. This gun oozes style and is a great show off piece!
2. The action is amazing and the shell ejecting action is so fun!
3. The tri-pellet shot is a nice surprise.
4. The ability to buy spare parts is always a plus with airsoft.

Cons:
1. No o-ring incluided makes for a leaky fill.
2. Improper adapter size makes for a leaky fill.
3. Shells are a bit difficult, and sometimes painful to load into the tube.
4. Feels a bit cheap in places.

Overall: 4/5. This gun is a lot of fun to own and if it's on sale, I reccommend it with the pruchase of o-rings (moondog recommended) and an adapter if you don't have them. Super cool and fun piece to shoot!

"This gun is great! I love the lever action and shell ejecting. It has a metal barrel and
plastic body with real wood grips. The only problem I have with this gun is that it scratches very easily. Otherwise it is a great gun that is reliable and shoots well.

"Had the chance to see this in person at the walk-in superstore. My thanks to the Evike team member from up North who helped me.

Gun comes in a simple brown box with foam padding, along with a manual, gas nozzle extender (will explain that later), hop-up adjustment tool, and five metal shellls.

Unloaded, the gun weighs roughly 4.4 lbs (measured using a weight scale), with a total length of 26.5 inches from end to end. Each shell holds up to three 6mm BBs, with each shell having a hollowed out tube from end to end similar to Wingun revolver shells. Each shell weighs roughly 3oz, and measure 2.5".

Now, for the gun itself...
- There are no sights on the gun, and no obvious place to put them.

- The gun is made completely from some type of lightweight sanded metal that scratches easily.

- The wood portions are lightly polished, and have an appearance that could easily mistake them for imitation wood. Roughing them out a bit will inprove the realism.

- The shell cradle inside (this part holds the shell for you when you are loading them into the shell tube)is made from some simple plastic that isn't exceptionally strong. It also tends to bend slightly to the right or left while trying to load, making reloading a little harder.

- The action is very smooth, but the shells frequently have trouble either ejecting effectively, or sometimes are not ejected at all and remain in the chamber (trying the action resulted in at least 9 out of 15 with ejection issues).

- There is no safety, and the included manual does not point one out.

- The fill valve is located on the bottom of the lever, and is about 2-3 inches down and can't be accessed by the gas cans Evike sells. The gun includes a nozzle extender, but it tends to leak easily and makes it hard to gas up.

- I was not able to actually test fire it (the fill valve was too difficult to get access to), so FPS will remain a mystery. My guess based on the shells, barrel length, and gas used would place it between 325-370 FPS with one BB.
---------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion
- The overall external build quality is good, but the inclusion of plastic internal parts in the lever action (the part that will see the heaviest use) and a lack of reinforced parts in this area along with a inconsistent ejection feature make this is fine replica with a shaky action, best used for either fun or display.

With some practice, it can be used at a quicker pace, but the gun does not seem built for longevity.
