Being such a Double Eagle fan-boi for so long, and also very much enjoying my G&G G36C, I just had to pick up this bad boy!

I haven't chrono'd this yet, but the power is amazing.  I can reach out to a full 14 or even 15m (if I aim at a slight, or perhaps extreme angle upwards).  I really must work out how to install a hop unit into this, so I can unlock its full potential.  20m might be within my grasp!  
The 0.20g BBs disappear into the distance with a beautifully curved ballistic trajectory (that goes in every direction, thereby proving Schroedinger's Uncertainty Principal) before slamming into any object with a resonating 'tic' or 'ping' or even 'flump'

The Rate of Fire is a little disappointing, I've only managed 1 shot every 5 or 10 seconds so far, but I'm sure that will improve with practice.   Hey at least I'll conserve those expensive BB's!
Talking of which, I need to source more magazines, I fear one magazine may not allow me to dominate the battlefield, whatever the RoF.

I am definitely considering building a lightweight loadout to support this as it will definitely become my primary for the next skirmish.   The impressive low weight (of less than a half a bag of sugar) means I'll be dancing around the site faster than those pesky kids

Now... what to accessorize it with?  I may have to transfer my 1.25-5x LVPO across from my HK416.  A torch and laser combo for CQB is surely a must too.  Perhaps a real-steel pistol grip (could be glued on somehow)?

Edit: For those envious chaps who want to pick one of these up, here's a link
I was soooo lucky that Action Hobbies had this lightly used one on sale for a mere 147,460.53 Vietnamese Dong

Typical clickbait unboxing review.  OP didn't even cover whether this 0.35J beast has a "fully working safety switch".  I feel unsafe just reading this without knowing!

 
      DISASTER

Oh woe, woe is me!  Barely 4,101,226 * shots into its life, my poor gnu has died!   The trigger has decided to have a Quite Sudden And Catastrophic Unscheduled Disassembly (I think it broke) so my hopes of Total Battlefield Domination are dashed!

I always said Double Eagle were tripe, but did anyone listen?  Did they? 

What a tragic waste of my 0.0002188662727073758 Bitcoin!



* (or maybe it was about 25 ... due to the previous owner not furnishing me with a full history of its usage, we shall never know)

I'm still gutted though, I was really looking forward to zapping someone with it for a 'humiliation kill'.   I'll have to find something else!

This makes me want to buy all the guns I wanted 10 years ago and review them.
