Tokyo Marui Next Generation Recoil Shock System FNH Licensed SCAR-L / MK16 AEG Rifle (Color: Flat Dark Earth / CQC)

"Almost 2 years with this Scar and i keep loving it more, best purchase and worth every cent, definity is a conversation starter at airsoft events, Highest quality in the airsoft game.

"I’ve owned this gun for about 8 years and it’s still an incredible piece of perfectly executed design and engineering. Easily one of my top 3 in my collection of over 40 rifles… if you have the cash, buy this.

-Its extremely fun to shoot
-The range and hop up is insane
-The fps is lower than most, but I view this as a plus for CQB, since i don't feel bad or worry about hurting the other person. They will def feel it…
-The sound and recoil are incredibly satisfying
-Mags feed perfectly and the auto cut off is really nice.

Cons:
-Price
-Some of the plastic around the stock and grip can be a little “creeky”

"I've owned my Mk16 for about 2 months now, all I have to say is wow. This is made exceptionally well, as you would expect from a TM. Yes it shoots soft, but as the other reviewer stated it does not affect range. It may just take a little bit longer to get there lol. I use .30 bbs and it easily hops that weight. The TM NGRS lines are by far the best stock aeg's on the market. You're definitely getting what you pay for; in both quality and performance! 10/10 would recommend!

"Super accurate and well made, the only downside is low fps because of Japan. But low fps doesn't mean low range.

"I wish I could rate this higher. Looks great, shoots great, but the archaic tech they tried to apply to this is it's downfall.

I bought this, it shot beautifully. Took it to a game, even at the miniscule 280 FPS, I was able to hit people at over 200 ft away. Towards the end of the day, the gun stopped shooting and the gearbox locked up. it had tell-tale signs of a blown fuse. Popped it open, confirmed the fuse was blown, went home, replaced the fuse, gearbox still wouldn't unlock. Sent it back to Evike for a refund as a result.

Pros:

-Beautifully crafted. The full metal body is a HUGE step up from the plastic bodies TM has in the early 2000's. Felt rock solid.

-The recoil system was AMAZING. Next best the to a gbbr as far as emersion goes. Functioning bolt catch was an awesome perk too.

-shot like a laser out of the box. Even with a mere 280 fps, I was able to range targets at over 200 feet. Hop up in this gun was amazing.

Cons:

-Mags are proprietary(but not stupid expensive and feed reliability)



-tech is archaic. This is TM's Achilles heel. They've skirted increasing the fps above 300 on their guns and using old technology(such as fuses instead of a MOSFET) by making reliable workhorse ages. But this is where using old technology is their downfall. There is no reason a gun this expensive should not have a MOSFET installed, let alone be using fuse system in 2024. I only used a 7.4 35c lipo on it(purposely did not use an 11.1 for this exact reason) and it caused a catastrophic failure. I wasn't even shooting full auto at all during the game where this occured.

Gave it 2 stars instead of one because it's an awesome platform with a lot of potential, but TM needs to get with modern times.
