The "APS" AEGs.

Slash · January 24th, 2011, 21:24

Has anyone tested those APS AEGs?

They're EBB, Lipo-ready, full metal, shoots 430 FPS... they look awesome but I've never heard about them.

If anyone has info about it, please share!

You should also make use of the Airsoft Gun Discussion thread you may find what you need there as well

I found two different reviews

This one is very negative, perhaps he got a bad lemon

Here is a happy customer
APS AK74 full steel/wood with blowback - Zero In : Airsoft Forums

I have been looking into getting one of these myself to test out. So if you do get one be sure to review!

i believe there is already a thread on this. But iuno where. Hopefully someone can direct us there lol. anyways i have one and i have to say it is awesome. Their website is fully up and running. mines shot about 10,000 rounds and its still good. i replaced the stock internal parts half way. The stock green plastic stuff kinda sucks. Well the piston is actually pretty tough. Its still okay after all those rounds. I swapped the spring guide with a ball bearing one from Magicbox (taiwan brand that makes EBB aftermarket parts) and also the cylinder & piston head with also the same brand.
The blowback feature and the working bolt catch is kind of a cool gimmick

its full metal! Oh and i also switched the motor to a torque motor. But there is a lack of trades.....

Hope this helps

Edit: haha ok cool someone already posted the links

From what I've heard they've been around a long time. Just doing paintball stuff, and now they've gone to airsoft as well.
A store around here got a bunch of them, and I think at least 50% if not more of them were bad. They all came with warranties but I hear they're not giving the warranty offer any more.
The ones around here couldn't handle 9.6v batteries, they basically fried the internals. I also think there was problems with the motors.

ACCL · January 24th, 2011, 21:48

i've been running a 9.6V 3000mAh battery from the start and its never failed me. But i didnt get mine from PocoMilitary (cuz i know the had some) so maybe their shipment was just uber bad?

Space Bot · January 24th, 2011, 21:53

Possibly, I don't really hear anything from Warcraft, kinda prefer not to go there since it's so out of the way and they've labeled 2 of my friends guns as something completely different. Where did you get yours btw?
All I know is for the price they're charging for their guns, I want me an APS AK as a second primary haha.

ACCL · January 24th, 2011, 22:33

Yea man i really want the solid stock AK from APS. I've changed my APS M4 into a M16 now with a LaRue type front rail. That reminds me, i need to get a M16 length inner barrel....

Gunny_McSmith · January 24th, 2011, 23:29

Reminds me of all the China made aegs.... Some batches are "OMFG awesome!"... and some are just crap...lol

Unfortunately, I heard more crap about APS then good... :S

cbcsteve · January 24th, 2011, 23:48

Prices are a bit crazy though on MilSig its very close to King Arms and Classic Army pricing but these are not to their level.

They are pretty much cheap entry level although I haven't heard anything about the outer body breaking. I heard quite a bit about the internals were not that great.

Perhaps what got fried is just the motor or the fuse as lower end AEGs tend to use bad motors and fuses. I know back then with all the Cheap China stuff the gearbox itself would usually shred gears but after a few upgrades they should work fine

ACCL · January 25th, 2011, 03:05

APS in asia is about $120 so that is around JG's price. A local shop here sells them for $365.99 + tax. its kinda expensive but then again its canadian prices.

The internals are "okay" but i've already replaced them. The motor i actually lost believe it or not lol. So i got a torque motor by element and it is doing much better than it was originally.
