This is a review video of the '08 Systema PTW M4. I have owned the gun for almost two years now, and other than the motor trouble, it has served me well. In the video I forgot to include that I had also added a Magpul ASAP sling mount.

MOTOR MOD:
If you know someone who is into electric RC cars, it would be better (and cheaper) to ask them if they know how to rewind motors before going to systema-ptw.com. If you don't know anyone, go to the Systema PTW User Group and PM the user "Tackleberry." He has made modding PTW motors part of his business. The cost is about $180 plus shipping. It sounds expensive, but would you rather pay $180 one time, or $230 (the price of a new motor) every 6 months or so?

  • hey dude, im sure you know what your doing and all.

    but ive had a friend who used BIO' bb's in his PTW and the gun crushed em like candy.

    just a friendly warning. not trying to be prick or anything.. GREAT review!

    ive been considering buying one. since my ugraded magpulls. GG guns keep braking on me.

    and by now ive could have had 2 PTW due to repair cost's

    but you convinced me. thanks ALOT MAN!

  • @SlumUnge For me, G&G and Bioval bios have had no issues. I even mix various types of .25 black and white to get a "tracer" feel and have had few feeding problems.

  • Is that a Tanaka l96 in the back there

  • @twmw2011 No, it's an ARES AW .338. Funny you mention it, I just uploaded a review of it if you want to check out my channel.

  • is it possible to change the stock with a normal M4A1 stock?

  • @TheRadiationCat The stock, yes. The stock tube, I am not sure.

  • @modoudrammeh Actually, none of the parts are compatible. It uses a proprietary gearbox and cylinder system.

  • @twmw2011 lol tanaka those were the days.

  • @SlumUnge about the BB, ptw has a steel nozzle and chamber, which is the reason why those BB were crushed like candies, do not use cheap BB, if you want bio BB, go with green devil, A good test for compatibility is a crush test. Put a BB in a pair of pliers and crush it. If it flakes, chips or shatters, don't use it in a PTW. If it squashes and deforms, but stays intact, you're good to go, KSC bbs are known for chopping in PTW for example.

  • Its a Buffer Tube just informing, great review!

  • the motors, used in PTW are not crap, they are made by systema and their performance is not bad, being able to pull a m150 at 20+ r/s with 9.6v, its only just the pf490 motor, the ones that came with max 2, which are PTW manufactured post 2007 had problems and can be fixed by rewinding.

  • @1:23 descusting (don't know how to spell it)

  • i have also had t20 of these rifles as well as all the cylinders that was a lot of money spent

  • mooches off parents gets a job, all money goes towards a 1400 dollar rifle

    trolling achieved
