EMG Helios Sharps Bros. / SLR Rifleworks Licensed MB47 SOLO Airsoft AEG (Model: 13.5" Handguard / Gun Only)

"First of all, this is a fantastic rifle for close quarters (the 5" version). It shoots lasers all day long and has a great, natural feel to it. I prefer this AK setup to my Krytac PDW (M4 setup) and it's much more affordable. I feel like I am deadly accurate with this rifle compared to others. If you're looking for an AK style assaulter, this model, in any of the three handguard lengths, is fantastic for the money.
Only point of note: Mine came with Dean (T-plug) rather than Tamiya.

"Amazing gun, good for the price tag, it was my first gun and I couldn’t recommend a better gun and it’s on sale all the time!

"I bought the 9" Model and I really like it. Weight is good, Verry accurate up to a good distance, Great externals, and internals. It's a fun gun to go out and play with and the only problem that I've had with it is that two screws came loose and disconnected the entire front assembly from the rest of the gun but after the screws were tightened again it was all good and it hasn't happened again. Would recommend

"I haven't fielded this gun yet, but WOW it is awesome (13.5 inch version). No wobble at all, battery space extends into the gas tube (can fit ANY long stick NIMH battery), the metal construction is very high quality, sounds like a beast when fired, it is very accurate at 100+ feet while it was snowing in southwest michigan, overall I am very impressed. I was able to get it for 199$ on the epic deals page, but it is still worth the original asking price. I am going to order a 12v matrix stick battery for it. Currently I have a 9.6v stick battery but after seeing the longest battery compartment I've ever seen I cannot wait to see how it fires with the 12v battery. I am about a cell or two short of being able to fit two 9.6v stick batterys in this thing. Im sure you could even put a 9.6v and just store an 8.4v in the compartment in case one battery dies on the field. for attachments I have a Pinty cantilever Red/green dot sight, and an ares ameoba angled grip. I am 20 years old and I always played airsoft growing up. I've owned a HK UMP .45 EBB elite, 6MM Pro shop FAL Type D, a Korean K1A (very rare gun), and this one takes the cake no questions asked.

"I purchased the "9 one and it is awsome

Pros:
-Great trigger response

-Great external

- comfortable c clamp if that's your thing

-awsome battery storage "for stick type batteries"

-no wobble just a little wobble with the stock but like every stock wobbles for the most part

Cons:

-pretty much the only con is with a 11.1 lipo it seems to burst fire with semi "might just be me"

That's all of it

I pared my weapon with a cyma ak railed dust cover and a valken hooded sight and there's no wobble and it's a perfect fit

"Just got got this in the boa! Feels super solid and realistic, trigger response is very CrI$p

"It's a very solid gun and has a awesome quick change spring gearbox..Out the box it performs well.. Very smooth and quiet operation and has a nice trigger response.. it almost kinda reminds me of my boys g&g m4 but with a bit lower rps.but very solid accurate shooter out the box.

Pros
11v ready
Cyma mags fit
Accuracy and range
Metal hopup chamber
Qd spring gearbox
Aluminum body very light even for the 13"


Semi-cons
The Duskcover isn't hindge

"Gun is super solid and works great, just wish it came with a dust cover or sight block mounted rail.

"Ok so I ran this (9" hand guard version) through it's paces this past weekend, about 5K rounds and it worked flawlessly!! I used an 11.1V lipo with 25g and 28g bb's and it kept up. Shoots straight and far. Only minor issue was fire selector was little loose, easy fix with a screwdriver. Would highly recommend, great rifle!!

Pros:
Consistant fps
Shoots straight and far
Keeps up with 11.1V lipo
Snappy trigger

Cons:
Fire selector was a little loose

"Very nice rifle out of the box. I bought the 9" hand guard version. Very solid build but light weight due to the aluminum receiver and hand guard. Only wobble is the retractable stock, very little though, easy fix. I'm using the blue box mags and in testing they feed great and look amazing on this model. Has the Sharps Bros trades on the receiver and the SLR trades on the hang guard. I will review again once its ran through the paces on the field.

-Pros
Price
Build quality
Light weight
Trades
Very tactical look
Etc, etc.

-Cons
Stock wobbles just a tad.

"Amazing externals
Everything fits good and looks good
Would buy again for the body alone

Internals are not bad
Could use some upgrades later on

I have the longest version and it shoots pretty straight for a stick gun
Seems like it should be shooting a little harder but has ok range again for stock, easy to change that
Rps 18 with 11.1

I love the gun
It is unique

"Great gun only problem is that it won’t reliably feed any of my mags but people say it has a break in period and will fix itself, lots of battery space even though it’s on the top, gun feels great and I love the selection switch which can be activated with your trigger finger

"Ok, I've had the 9" over almost 2 years, I got it out of the box and fielded it with a 7.6v battery and let me just say I was so impressed by the trigger performance right out of the box, it had great range and I hit alot of people. But then my hop rubber broke bc I was playing in 78-90 degree texas weather. I fixed it myself with a maple leaf hopup but still the air seal sucked. Now the hopup doesn't work it has trash range. But I'll be replacing half the parts in it. Here in a week or 2.

PROS:
amazing trigger reaspones right out of the box with a fully charged 7.6v

Great build quality

Amazing copper tie pore inner barrle (stock)

Got alot of people wanting to hold it and asking about it.

Super easily upgradable.

Awsome ergonomics


CONS:
can't use a 11.1v lipo out of the box (I tried and was very disappointed)

The 2 grub screws holding the barrel assembly together are ver easily crosstreaded

Can't find a new barrle for it that would fit it ( I looked absolutely everywhere)

Hopup failed plus hop rubber (partaly my fault)

Over all I would recommend, the cons are fixable and I love it even though I've personally have had alot of problems with it.

"Just got this thing in, it feels solid, paints nicely, and is really really good looking.
Pretty average groupings all around, somewhere between a stock combat machine and a krytac, but not INSANE performance. Slightly disappointed that the tight-bore barrel is only copper. I feel like It'd get more performance out of a steel barrel, gearbox is nothing to write home about. Hop-up has a really easy time hopping .28s with no break in period, and can over hop them a good bit, probably could handle .30s okay, but .28s seem to be what it really likes. Can't wait to field this thing.

"I replaced the stock gearbox with a drop in lonex gearbox to fix the internals - the only problem is that even with the stock gearbox I can't get any of my lipo batteries to fit. Sticks should fit in here, but my 11.1v 1100 mAh lipo doesn't even come close to fitting. I recommend rear wiring this thing.

Also, the externals are great. The only external problem is the wobbly dust cover
