Specna Arms M4 SA-V02

Presentation

Worthy of the 21st century, this replica offers a perfect advantage in close-quarters battles due to its compact size and good accessorization options. The materials used are lightweight and durable, and the execution quality is very good considering its price category. The airsoft replica package includes almost all the necessary elements to get it operational.

Exterior of the Replica

Impressive.... We can only praise the gentlemen at Specna Arms for the quality-to-price ratio they offer with their replicas. The exterior of the airsoft replica is well-made, and the materials used are of high quality. Aluminum and aluminum alloys are utilized, greatly easing the "user's" task, with maneuverability significantly improved. The design of the airsoft replica is both attractive and efficient. The front rail system is of the Free-Float type, providing ample space for all kinds of accessories. On the upper part of the body, there is a standard rail running almost the entire length of the airsoft replica, allowing for the mounting of an advanced sighting device.

A large part of the airsoft replica is made from metal, with the ABS plastic elements being the grip and the stock of the airsoft replica. The stock is adjustable with 6 positions and features a rubber pad for improved grip, and due to its considerable dimensions, crane batteries can be accommodated. The airsoft replica is equipped with a classic foldable sighting system to allow the use of other sighting devices. Note that to operate the sighting system, the button on the left side must be pressed.

To add a touch of realism, the manufacturers have installed a system that mimics an active bolt catch, allowing for much easier hop-up adjustment. The airsoft replica can be secured using the 4 quick-detach points located on both sides of the front rail system and with the sling swivel. Please note that the strap included in the package is not intended for supporting the airsoft replica.

Interior of the Replica

The airsoft replica is equipped with a nearly standard version 2 gearbox, the only difference being the ability to replace the spring without opening the gearbox shell, but don't get too excited; the gearbox still needs to be removed to perform this operation. Regarding the internal components, we can say they are of good quality. The piston, its head, and the cylinder head are made of polycarbonate, while the gears are made of quality metal. The shimming of the replica is well done, and the sound of the functioning gearbox is good. The motor of the airsoft replica is standard but successfully engages the internal mechanism, with a consumption of only 10-11A, indicating that it is a well-optimized gearbox. The performance is certainly aided by the 8 mm bearing gears.

The hop-up chamber is metal, and the adjustment is located inside the ejection port. It can be accessed by operating the cocking lever of the airsoft replica. The grouping is good even though the inner barrel has a diameter of 6.08 mm. When properly adjusted, the hop-up allows the airsoft replica to achieve quite large engagement distances. The speed of the replica is approximately 110-115 meters per second measured with 0.20g BBs. The package also includes a spring that achieves approximately 90-95 meters per second.

Power Supply

The package includes a 9.6V 1100 mAh mini crane battery that is mounted in the stock. It is recommended not to use batteries larger than 9.6V as the toy may malfunction. LiPo batteries can be used but not larger than 7.4V. Only use quality BBs and do not reuse BBs as this may damage the airsoft replica.
