Popular Post HuttArmouries Posted May 25, 2024 Popular Post Posted May 25, 2024 So ive seen these around with very limited information. Seems to be about 200fps, holds 17 bbs and has the battery in the magazine. It works on a system similar to the gbls das or some of the older guns that preceded that and some newer nerf guns. That meaning you get a mechanical trigger that releases the sear on the piston and then the motor automatically kicks in to recock that piston and make the slide cycle. Probably a bad idea to be an early adopter but ive always liked aeps and this just seems so cool ive ordered one. Ill post more once I have it. No spare mags available anywhere at the mo but its only been out for 4-5 months or so and less than that in the uk. GenuineGerman, ruskitseller, Egon_247 and 2 others 5
Guest JinxDuh Posted May 25, 2024 Posted May 25, 2024 Can’t be any worse than the raptor ? I like the hop up adjuster, that’s very slick!
HuttArmouries Posted May 25, 2024 Author Posted May 25, 2024 Just now, JinxDuh said: Can’t be any worse than the raptor ? I like the hop up adjuster, that’s very slick! Yeah. I had one of the original raptor pistols when they first came out and I had it all of a day of trying to get more than 3 shots in a row before sending it back for a refund.

Same issue, just I didn’t send mine back and still have it ?
AK47frizzle Posted May 25, 2024 Posted May 25, 2024 I'm after one of these as well. Tried to ask patrolbase whether they'd try nabbing some but no reply.

Cr0-Magnon Posted May 27, 2024 Posted May 27, 2024 Can no-one really come up with a way to reliably get closer to 300fps out of an AEP?

Id still call 200 fps pretty good considering it has a whole blowback mech in it too Edited May 27, 2024 by HuttArmouries

pyromancer6 Posted May 27, 2024 Posted May 27, 2024 I had a little plink on the Friday just gone with one somebody had at the site. It's suprisingly pretty zippy and satisfying to use - I'd imagine it'd be a great alternative to your average GBB pistol during the colder months or if you just want 'a pistol that works' but with a little more soul than your average NBB/AEP, plus it's a grach which is extra bonus points

This is kinda why I wanted one. I like the idea of something that will reliably work all year round. I have a tm pistol for warmer times.
rj1986 Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 EBB pistols have come on a bit by the looks of things. Does look and sound rather snappy. HuttArmouries and BigStew 2
HuttArmouries Posted May 30, 2024 Author Posted May 30, 2024 (edited) So I just got mine. Fairly stiff prime by hand but it is surprisingly snappy. Trigger is quite nice if fairly light. Safety feels a little cheap and despite being on both sides the safeties are not connected. Both of them disconnect the trigger but you are gonna have to pick one and leave the other off. I dont tend to use manual safeties anyway so this isnt really an issue for me. Not the first clue on how to disassemble and there is no manual in the box. had one or two jams due to not charging the battery fully meaning the gears didnt quite make it all the way around but racking the slide spun the gears and put it back into manual and with a proper charge ive yet to have any issues. Range its pretty good for a sidearm, around 200fps on a .25. It feels a little on the chunky side but Its been a while since I had the raptor so it may just be how the actual grach feels. It isnt noticeably fat like the old 1911 aeps. it looks as it should. Edited May 30, 2024 by HuttArmouries Cocha and ruskitseller 2
HuttArmouries Posted May 30, 2024 Author Posted May 30, 2024 (edited) oh. Ive gotten it apart. there are 3 pins in the frame holding the chassis in but you can actually take the slide off like any normal pistol. just punching out the slide release though you do have to make sure it is not cocked first. Internals look very robust, ill post pics later. notably the catch surface, the teeth on the slide and some of the other wear parts seem to be seperately replacable with screwed in inserts. Edit: also i was wrong. Left hand safety is entirely aesthetic, right hand is the working one Edited May 30, 2024 by HuttArmouries ruskitseller 1
HuttArmouries Posted May 30, 2024 Author Posted May 30, 2024 (edited) MOV_4203.mp4 Yes I know that I had the safety turned off when I did that little demo. I am the dum but yes I can confirm the left side safety does nothing to stop the gun from firing Edited May 30, 2024 by HuttArmouries ruskitseller, pyromancer6 and Daveoc33 3
Colin Allen Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 This looks rather interesting; any idea on how many shots you can get from a fully charged battery?

When I initially stuck it on the charger I only left it for 10 minutes and I got one or two jams where it couldnt quite cock itself but after an hour of charging I havent had a single jam from this charge Once there are spare mags available unless you are using it as a primary in cqb I dont think battery capacity will be an issue Colin Allen 1
HuttArmouries Posted May 31, 2024 Author Posted May 31, 2024 (edited) yeah just tested. About 4 mags is where it starts having issues. so around 64 clean shots and then it every now and again slows down slightly. Still runs but it just sometimes has to take a moment to recock itself. So treating this as if it were the gas capacity of a magazine it is still perfectly fine for a sidarm with the one downside of being more difficult to top up if you are out on a milsim or something. On another note the gun seems to have some sort of sleep mode. If I leave it with a mag in for a long while it will take half a second after shooting to actually start recocking itself. I only get this occasionally so im not sure what to make of it yet Edited May 31, 2024 by HuttArmouries Colin Allen 1

I might wait to see what else they bring out as I am not that interested in a Grach. A Glock would be very tempting. Edited May 31, 2024 by Colin Allen

Unfortunately mine didnt come with a manual so i have no idea if the sleep mode is an actual thing or if its just a quirk of leaving the mag in the gun for a while. also sample of 1. probably a good idea to wait for a variety of reviews XD Colin Allen 1

So after a bit more testing and another charge ive not been able to get that same issue to happen again. The gun seems to work as it should now. One interesting thing. if you try to cock it for the first round and slip the motor will take over and cock the gun for you
Nick G Posted August 5, 2024 Posted August 5, 2024 I got one of these a couple of weeks ago. Remarkably snappy if not up to GBB standards, but I'm planning to use it in the winter . Seems to shoot well, the hop adjustment is fantastic. However, has anyone taken the slide off ? if so is there a knack to getting the take down lever out ? Mine doesn't want to push through.
The_Lord_Poncho Posted August 6, 2024 Posted August 6, 2024 Looks like spare mags are now available: https://www.18airsoft.com/products/cyma-15-rds-magazine-for-cm136-mp443-grach-aep-airsoft-cyma-c335 or https://www.taiwangun.com/aep-magazines/cm-136-magazine-with-lipo-battery-11-1v-350mah-cyma

Ive taken mine apart and It comes apart like a normal 1911 style pistol. The slide release is just very stiff to get out. Also make sure its not cocked when you take it out XD Edited August 6, 2024 by HuttArmouries Nick G 1
Colin Allen Posted August 6, 2024 Posted August 6, 2024 I saw one of these at our last outing; it was rather underwhelming in terms of response, range and giggle factor.
