Airsoft GI - Echo 1 M8A3 AEG

[roush480]

is this gun lipo ready?

[cillerz199]

this gun sucks

[benpizzlegacy]

Ghetto white background w/ tape FTW.

[Radi0activ3Cupcak3]

Someone please tell me. G4-A1 or ECHO 1 Stag M8A3

[ZigZag1808]

Systema has the best upgrades in the market. I've had aimtop, g&p, g&g, matrix, etc. You name it, i've had it. Nothing beats the quality of systema, or the speed.

I have systema high speed gears, prometheus high speed custom piston, and systema motor. With a lipo it shoots 46 rps at 365fps. and i've been using it for 2 months, total of 11 times going airsofting, about 65,000 rounds, still works like new.

[Olkowsr]

he seems tired



[95drumhero]

you fail at airsoft when the scope is more expensive than the gun its on.

Echo 1 M8= 215 dollars

EoTech=370 dollars

[Skimpledimple]

@95drumhero who says its real? they make 40$ replicas

[95drumhero]

@Skimpledimple oh, do you know where? I was kinda wanting one but didn't want to fork out 500 bucks

[bf2lover42]

@95drumhero I think it's a waste because of the price, but some people use real eotechs for a simple reason. Airsoft sights break when shot at with BBs.

If you are buying one for $80 just get a protective lens.

[fearthegeeklord]

@bf2lover42 real EOTechs get their lenses shot out by airsoft guns too. They still work though.

[bf2lover42]

@fearthegeeklord but real ones are designed to take with a real gun recoil. So they are expensive exactly for their sturdyness and precision.

[shadowpong1]

cant thebattery be pot in the but of the gun

[fearthegeeklord]

@shadowpong1 no. that'd need a crane stock.

[MedicmanFP]

Echo 1 sucks, buy a KWA or a Systema.

[otherapoctank]

kinda innacurate details, the M8A3 fires the 6.8mm SPC but it says 5.56mm on the lower receiver

[TheTobyKing]

can u get extra hicap mags for this on airsoftgidotcom? echo1 doesnt seem to have m8a3 mags which other ones would work?

[SavingPrivateBrian]

@TheTobyKing m8a3 uses regular m4 mags. I have one and have a few spare mags that are all m4 mags. (anything "tokyo marui compatible" is fine)

[Nowaking]

What is the name of that scope?

[otherapoctank]

@Nowaking pretty sure its a 553 eotech

[Legionnaire8888]

Echo1USA forever!

[imdarrellkthx]

do you know where I can get this rifle, before december? haha Everywhere is sold out.. : / .. well im looking for the stag 15 but im pretty sure this is that gun, i'm new to this.

[BlAhHaDaBoY123]

Hey airsoftgidotcom,

This gun worked great for me but a few weeks ago it jammed and I tried to unjam it with an unjamming rod but it didn't work. The gun will work and "shoot" when hooked up to the battery but the airsoft bb's won't fire down the barrel.

[team0blackmanner]

lol no offence but sometimes you look and act like you got outa bed just before. it makes me laugh because when you talk sometime you sound like a bad acter when tired, but i know ur not lying

[WarCraftPlay3r]

@team0blackmanner Tim can beast on you now stfu.

[team0blackmanner]

@WarCraftPlay3r he probably could. just saying its funny.

[AbleSquadSniper]

the crane version is best

[CoDmanzero]

anyone who has this gun, new or old, what kind of bb weight are u using? i want to run .28s on it, but im having suspicion... pls answer me

[laylda]

[eastcoaststeez]

[bfett011]

[nthnkilgore]

Can you do a review on the new version of this gun. I heard it had 8mm ball bearings, I would like to know if it has the VFC gb. I can't find that much info on the new version at all so I would really like some info on this before I buy it from you guys.

[wilsonisha]

what battery comes with the crane stock version of this gun?

[TheAirsoftbeast22]

is the TSD Tactical Gen II. Full Metal M4-SD better than the echo 1 m8a3 or just upgrade the m8a3...and can you a real indepth reveiew on the m8a3 crane stock i am really debating geting it but i want the sd look and full metal under 300

[cqb22]

@TheAirsoftbeast22

get the crane stock, i have it and it is nice

[TheAirsoftbeast22]

is the G&G Full Metal GR-16 CQB S so much better than the echo 1 m8a3 that i should go the extra bucks or is there not much of a dramatic diff. and just stick with the m8a3

[cqb22]

@TheAirsoftbeast22

stick with m8a3

[14GiorgioS]

what is the inner barrel length of this gun?

and is it the same as in the crane stock version???

someone please answer ASAP!!!

[USAFA21]

as far as i know the crane stck is the same, its barrel lenth is 300mm

[14GiorgioS]

thanks man!

[USAFA21]

Hey can you do a new review of the Version 2 of the M8A3

[Asianjumper103]

do you think you could do a video on how to take a full body stock off a m16 because im haveing some proplems and i dont want to break my gun

[AirsoftChicago]

looks ok

[ArchAngelZadok14]

the same with the vertical grip

[ArchAngelZadok14]

did anyone else notice at the beginning of the vid there is no sight but after that there is a reflex sight?

[lolboy198]

yeh he probaly did a bad take then in the redo he put it on

[SamuraiPie8111]

omigod call the cops!

[MalarkyMan15]

1:09 some people like to give their gun a reach around lololololol

[slientmarksman]

i personaly like the reciver

[WantASubcribe]

Will this gun be able to use a Madbull Silencer xk3?

[stebolicious008]

any gun would be able to use Madbull silencers as long as they have a 14 mm counter clockwise thread. and im pretty sure this one does

[sk8erzam]

whats up with the battery it just hangs off the side in a case? please reply

[guitaroman101]

yeah, its called a PEQ box, the wire comes out of the front RIS, and goes into the PEQ box which houses the battery

[supersmashbrosevil]

every m4 can have that rails

[doubletap22]

it means the barrel does not rest in the rail/body it sits independent the advantage to this in real life is vibration reduction making the gun shot to shot more more accurate.

[triynizzles]

what does "free float" mean?

[JulioCHernandez]

free float means that the rail doesn't rest on be barrel at all, it only attaches to the gun and not the on the barrel, so if you feel like by any chance the rail moved slightly the barrel didn't move at all cuz its not touching the barrel.

[Oxstayne]

the barrel doesnt tough anything for more accuracy

[TwiceVicodin]

ok as far as i know, no one grips the barrel like they're going to fap

[SeriousPlay3r]

Nice Trigger Finger Tim!

[marinecorpsdevildogs]

lol good one

[chazman82]

wut would be be the best internals for this gun as for batteries, inner barrel, gears and spring....to get higher ROF (your reccomendation) and also can the G&G zombie killer metal body be replaced for the plastic one??

[tv321123]

kwa is the  best

[mgunner564]

wrong.....Systema is the best

[tv321123]

but systema cost $1000 plus.a kwa has almost as good preformance for more than hafe the price

[tv321123]

ok so you think they are the best but i my self dont.they do have the best preformance but i dont think thats it is worth spending $1000+.

a kwa has almost as good preformance for more than hafe the price and that whay i think kwa's are better

[datguy197]

ok i agree but do you even know why they are great or do you just say what everyone else says

[acon127]

@mgunner564 but echo 1 is still good

[conorman13]

@mgunner564 Systema doesn't come cheaper than a grand and most people can't afford that, and they are considered training weapons. Also, not many fields allow the extremely high FPS that Systema produces.

[TheFleazor]

A mag well grip is a wron way. with a gun that long your going to have massive barrel wobble, this goes for vert grips aswell there no broom sticks there a refrence point

[bobert007]

I DONT GET IT!, IM Trying to look for a meta body for this gun, but the outer barrel does not screw on!! I NEED HELP my head is hurting, does the spikes around the outer barrel screw off? If so cw? or ccw??? please help me!!!!

[x55wingunr]

there's a video demonstrating this gun with a lipo

[junkerboy2251]

It might. If you buy a PEQ box for a 10.8v and install one in it, it should work

[Jimbosthehero]

at (1:10)

OHHHH! So thats how you shoot this gun.

[Opdahl101]

NO, there is almost no gun on the market that can use a 10.8 stock without having fatal flaws with the gun in the end. Even using a 9.6 with an echo 1 is pushing it, They don't have the strongest gears to start out with. I have a G&G and I don't even want to use a 10.8 on it. A 9.6 should give you all the ROF that you need. If anything go out and buy systema or prometheus HIGH SPEED GEARS, Your gun won't shoots as hard but you get the ROF, and you shouldn't but pulling a M120, 20 times a second.

[superultramegaman5]

then theres KWA :D

[XxsecretaznmanxX]

ooo eotech :P

[MrDipper]

What body it has ABS or Metal? I would like to know please

[xXrambo5432Xx]

abs plastic...but you can buy metal bodies.

[TRiGGAxHAppYx24]

hey i ordered this gun and i cant find the scope that it shows on the page do u know where i can get that scope?

[jokerXairsoft]

what size battery does it come with

[elmismofish]

Is it full metal because on airsoft gi it doesnt say anything and what type of rail system is it?

[UBCSWraith]

Since it's Echo1, I'd assume that everything is metal except for the receiver.

[TranSyygr]

Most echo1 variants are plastic. I don't know what your talking about.

[UBCSWraith]

Um, just about every Echo1 (non Vector Arms) gun I've EVER seen is all metal except for the receiver. You do know what the receiver is right? In case you didn't, its the body of the gun. Everything else on just about every other Echo 1 gun I've seen is metal. The barrel, flash hider, rails, delta ring, stock ring, stock tube, sights, ect are all metal.

[TranSyygr]

Well, my echo 1 p90, is anything but metal. the only thing that's metal is the barrel. Everything else. Pure, plastic

[Airsoft1218]

the real steel p90 has a polymer body

[TranSyygr]

I really don't care, because I love the heft in a gun

[NickDenning3]

i bet you think your cool after that dont you boy?

anyway dont go around with your ostentatious and crude comments trying to seem like you know; because you dont. I know a couple people that shoot real firearms stranger than what the man in this video demonstrated.

and finaly, dont go throwing your negitive self at everyone. just becase your bitter doesnt mean the world around you should be as miserable as you.

[Skatewakesno37]

what is the fps on this gun

[AIRSOFTGIdotcom]

if you don't like how I look, dont watch, its that simple....

[TheAirsoftmarine68]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom Thats exactly right Tim.

[AbleSquadSniper]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom You tell 'em, Tim. Your name should be Supreme Overlord Tim.

[SCARpmcAirsoft]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom

Haters hate because you have the coolest job in the world, relax Tim...

[BraVocompanyairsoft]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom

Tim, is this metal or plastic? I'm looking for a metal rifle with rails so I can put a 203 on it and not worry about breaking it.

[renegadeawesome]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom n1 tim i dont think you look wierd you look pretty cool

[RainbowsHaveEyes]

@AIRSOFTGIdotcom you've changed a lot over the year.

[Coltsmaniacdude18]

it is pronounced carbeen even though it looks different

[YouSoldMe]

No one likes a pretentious 15 year old trying to sound like they know everything. Vent your anger somewhere else

[DungeonKing213]

You should probally work on that.

[exdeeer]

Yes this is another Chinese clone, but in terms of quality. It's getting a lot better. For example, the Echo 1 g36c, is comparable to the CA g36c. It beats it in terms of internal quality...

[Epson5000]

Isn't CA Chinese as well?

[exdeeer]

Ethnically, I would guess so, but they're located in HK, which makes them legal. Same goes for Real Sword, and they have one of the highest quality AEGs on the market.

[Airsoftmikey1]

yeh it is. Hong kong i think

[airsoftguy111]

... Looks like the HK416

[dumpmasterflash]

can u put the peq box on the bottom rail? PLEEZ somone tell me!

[threebud]

yes

[dumpmasterflash]

THANK UUUUUUU!!!

[dh5567]

I grip from the receiver, makes me feel like I have more control

[ExistBMX]

Why only armalites? why not Non-Armalite guns?

[seran0]

i think ill keep my G&P

[KaneKahiko]

Its true about the rail setup, I have a 10inch Noveske Rail on my M4 and I find my self switching between different grips depending on what position I am and how far the target is. So basically long rail add up to more practicality.

[xXgoROTinAsack89Xx]

gah i wish they put a crane stock on that

[waddleg]

meow

[STORMAIRSOFT1]

Ive never seen anybody ever grip it from the top. Please check out the ER-25 I want to buy one.

[Hartman442]

That thing looks bad ass
