EMG Colt Licensed M16A3 Airsoft AEG Rifle (Color: Black)

"This gun has been flawless for me since I bought it in December.
The ONLY mod I've done to it is change out the handguard, literally that's it.
It comes with an in line mosfet and a high torque motor. There's not much more you can ask than that.
It is pretty accurate for is really just a standard issue M16. You CAN upgrade the hopup system but you really don't need to unless you're making this a dedicated DMR. The trigger response with an 11.1 Titan is just beautiful. I have enjoyed literally every outing with this gun. I MIGHT put a tightbore in it but again, you really don't NEED to.

"This is by far the best airsoft rifle I've ever used, and I have a Krytac Kriss Vector. I even use this rifle indoor and it is still a beast.
I know everyone only likes Pros and Cons so here it is:

Pros:
Weight is great
Very realistic
Very Acurate
Great Hop Up Adjust
Amasing Trigger Pull (fells like a real gun)

Cons:
The length might be bad for some people (I think its fine)\

Honestly I suggest this for anyone from a beginner to a 10 Year Veteran.

"The standard issue airsoft rifle in my book.

Solid build quality, fix that stock wobble with tightening the screw below the buffer tube base and its ready

:)

"Overall this is a solid looking and performing AEG. I wanted to add a M16 to the collection, and this one fits the bill. The Colt trades is a bonus.

Pros:

Really nice externals with Colts M16A3 Trades.

Semi-auto is very snappy and responsive on an 11.1v Li-ION battery.

Fairly consistent FPS.

Inner barrel length: ~ 510mm

Full stock means you can fit bigger batteries. I was able to fit an 11.1v Titan power 6000 mAh nunchuck type in there, but you need to modify or take out the plastic supports out of the stock.

Wired to Dean/T-plugs is always a plus in my book.

Cons:

Rear ironsight came crooked out of the box.

Front handguard is very wobbly due to a weak spring in the delta ring. I end up replacing the entire delta ring with a G&P mil-spec delta ring, and the handguard is on there pretty solid now.

Reassembling the upper and lower receiver back together is a little tricky, and will take some finagling of the charging handle a bit.

"First off, when I pulled it out of the box, immediately it felt cheap. The plastic stock is thin and feels like it would crack or break under enough pressure and the hand guard wobbles from left to right. the aluminum receiver also feels like crap and so does the pistol grip. It comes with an orange flash hider so buy an aftermarket one along with the aeg. The battery compartment also stores what I would call a “plastic skeleton” to add extra strength to the stock but this can be removed and allow for more space to accommodate a larger battery. The stock also comes loose after a few shots because the retaining screw is connected to the spring guide. Overall on externals, 6/10 as compared to the VFC E series M16 (9/10 for VFC, wish they didn’t discontinue those *sad face).

After a few shots the trigger locked up on me. I dont have time to send things back and forth with evike so I opened up the gun myself to fix the issue. Upon disassembling the aeg I found it easy and difficult in some aspects respectively. Removing the stock was very easy. However, separating the upper and lower receivers was very challenging and possibly the ABSOLUTE most annoying part. It feels like the milling for the retention pins was off and so the gearbox sits a millimeter or two too high off axis. This means the receivers got stuck, the retention pin was very hard to pull out and to put back in.

Opening up the gearbox was a dream, very easy with the QD spring. The issue for the trigger was that the trigger contacts somehow tightened and so I had to use a tiny flathead to widen them back up again. I closed up the gearbox without any issue, and replaced all the other pins, no problem. Until it came to the two retention pins which is a total nightmare! There is also a small nub on top of the gearbox which was probably left behind from the casting so it also prevents you from efficiently joining the receivers. I filed this part down.

I bought this aeg with the MAXX Airsoft hop up unit. DO NOT use the maxx hop up in this gun. You will have to modify said gun and because of the loose tolerances, it may cause your magazine to not seat properly or at all. I have to force the magazine it came with into the mag well and LONEX mags seat but have to be forced into the magwell. I put the maxx hop up in my VFC Saber and it worked perfectly.

I had high expectations for this gun and tbh I’d spend my money on a different m16 variant. I should’ve just bought the LCT M16 instead and if it were in stock somewhere else, I’d rather have the VFC M16 E series. Overall, 6/10 in my opinion for this gun, NOT WORTH THE PRICE TAG.
