Remarkable! That’s what word to start this article with! It’s been a long time since we talked about some nice replica of machine gun for airsoft and this is the right occasion. Just in these days requests of this kind have arrived and we must necessarily quote this reply by Thompson M1A1 by Ares.
Let’s start from the aesthetics, a beautiful reproduction ARES with a length of 840 mm and an important mass of 2920 grams, it has a black and wood color (real walnut wood) and has a very attentive to detail execution. The stock can be disassembled to save space. Born as a weapon for explorers, patrol commanders and officers in the First World War, the replica has a body with metal mechanics and electric operation, then has a particular system that generates the knockback (recoil) making this ASG truly unique and exciting. It has system adjustable hop-upof low resistance electrical wiring, electronic trigger, walnut wood stock, grip and handguard, barrel thread +14.
The electric motor is of the hi-torque type connected to a full metal gear box with metal reinforced gears which acts both on the air group and on the particular system “Electric Blow Back” to generate the recoil of the weapon.
This Thompson M1A1 airsoft electric machine gun shoots in single shot or automatic mode by drawing on a magazine increased by ben 380 rounds. Shoots the classic 6 mm pellets for airsoft, for example ceramic or biodegradable 0.20 grams, 0.25 grams, 0.28 grams, etc. The package does not include the battery and charger, which must therefore be purchased separately if you don’t already have them.
Better to also order a good pack of pellets since this airsoft electric machine gun shoots with so much energy by taking the pellets from its large magazine. Remember as always to protect your eyes with ballistic goggles; a few euros and the game becomes safe!
