Sports reviews of Thompson M1A1 Full-Metal Body AEG airsoft gun
Customer Review: Amazing gun!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
First, this is not Lloyd, but his son.
If this review is too long for you, skip down to the bottom for the important stuff.
When I first heard about airsoft, I thought it sounded kind of stupid. The only wars I had been in were with slingshots and pumice balls, and the only airsoft guns I had seen were cheap Walmart pistols. When my friend invited me to an airsoft war, I figured I would kick some trash, being able to shoot ten times as far as the guns I had seen. To my surprise, I did not go up against little 5-shot pistols, but big 400-shot fully automatic Kalashnikovs, the kind they use to hunt bear (or so I thought when ten hit me at once). As I dragged my beaten carcass home, I determined to get myself a good gun. Problem was, I didn't know the difference between a Kalashnikov automatic and a made-in-China plastic spring. I researched all I could, but still could not find the gun I wanted. I didn't know which sites to trust, or how to get a good price. Finally I decided to just buy the gun that looks the coolest, which is a very bad thing to do. Luckily, the gun that caught my eye was the Thompson M1A1 Full-Metal Body AEG, and I have not been disappointed. The package only took five and a half years to ship, or so it seemed, and the moment it arrived I tore the gun out and started shooting everything in sight. It was then I discovered one big problem. I needed to buy ammo for it! All I had were about ten .12g BBS I had shaken out of my skin after the last war. These would not work, however, and I had to wait another agonizing 2 days until I could go buy some ammo. The gun finally loaded, I tried yet again to shoot it. I then discovered that the battery needed charged. After staring at the wall for five hours, I readied my gun for the last time. After praying that it would work, making a number of promises about not shooting my sister/sister's cats, I pulled the trigger. Liking the feel, I turned it off safety and pulled again. I pointed it at a wall and held down that wonderful lever of destruction, pumping every ounce of that nine pounds, every foot of that 450fps, every BB of that ten shots per second, all into the wall directly in front of me. The resulting shrapnel that was embedded into my skin will forever remind me of the joy I felt that day.
I have always been impressed with this gun, and it has been able to hold its own against Kalashnikovs and other nice AEGs. The wood imitation looks very real, so real in fact that many people have asked how I got a gun with a wood stock for so cheap. The power is very good, a nice 450fps with .12g ammo. Although it decreases the fps, I would suggest using .20 and .25g ammo, this increases the accuracy greatly. The ROF (Rate Of Fire) is kind of low, only about 10 BBS per second, but this only means that it conserves ammo better. I have, multiple times, beat people with more expensive or nicer-looking guns. All of this being said, I will skip to the points:
PROS-
Nice power--450fps .12g, (I've killed birds with this gun!)
Realistic--Don't take off the orange tip when you bring it to the library!
Good accuracy--Hit body-sized target from 70 feet easily (with .20-.25g)
Hi-cap mag--390BBS
Comes with a strap--easier carrying and running
Has separate switches for safety/fire and auto/semi.
CONS-
Kind of heavy-9lbs
No rails/accessories.
Hard to aim with
WARNINGS:
Do not hold down the trigger for more than five seconds, the motor will overheat (I know this from experience).
Always wear eye and mouth protection in wars (a friend of mine got his tooth shot out).
Do not let your friend shoot this gun point-blank into your leg, it will hurt (I also know this from experience)
Do not shoot at a wall directly in front of you.
Overall, this gun is a great buy. Whether you need something to kick some butt in wars or just a gun that's cheap be trigger-happy with, this might be the gun for you.
Description of Thompson M1A1 Full-Metal Body AEG airsoft gun
This Thompson M1A1 is part of the Exclusive "GUNS OF HISTORY" collection consisting of the most authentic airsoft replica's on the market! Full metal, 1:1 scale of the real firearm counterpart are just a few of the reasons that make this airsoft replica stand above the rest. Fully licensed and trademarked including unique serial numbers along with quality craftsmanship will not disappoint.. We HIGHLY recommend the use of .20g+ BB's for maximum performance. The use of low grade .12g BB's can and will cause damage to the gun and may void the warranty. The Thompson Submachine Gun was designed by General John T. Thompson, who was inspired by the trench warfare of World War I to develop a ?one-man, hand-held machine gun?, firing a rifle caliber round. In 1938, the Thompson submachine gun was adopted by the U.S. military, serving during World War II and later into the Korean War, as well as early stages of the Vietnam War. Other Allied countries purchased the Thompson as well, notably the United Kingdom and France. Modifications to simplify production and reduce cost were made in 1942, resulting in the M1 and M1A1 models, which were commonly carried by both non-commissioned and commissioned officers. An incredibly detailed and lifelike replica, the weapon features the original metal construction, wood handle and stock, and bolt action controls. |
