IM IN THE BACKGROUND, I was at the field lol. Got to meet him, great guy, super chill. Love the video, keep up the great work 1:35 I’m there in camo 13:12 I’m the guy he lets use the rifle 17:37 Sorry lol I’m just excited 12:12
Bought my LWT September last year. Without a doubt the best gun I've ever bought. Never had any problems with it, its really good considering I play outdoors. Stellar gun in all honesty.
my first gun was a arcturus nyo6. shoots amazing and sounds great to shoot, and it set the bar high when i found out not every gun can run an 11.1v out the box. my second gun was the pp19 ztac by the same company, so i think that makes me an arcturus fan lol
Got my Arcturus about 5 days ago in tokyo, got back to the US and its snappy AF. Got the pdw and it came with grips for bigger hands which helped with finding the gun with thicker gloves its awesome. You can tell they care about you and the product.
I watched so many video's on begginner AEGs. Trying to find the right one for me to start at. This and a few other videos really sold me on this one. I went for the starter package, which is a really solid deal considering what ive seen around. Im super excited :D Ty for your great honest reviews
As someone who started airsoft only a year ago I wish I picked this as my first gun. I got a ICS MP5, it's great, it's beautiful but it also set me back 400 bucks. Which really put me in a tight spot for the rest of my gear.
Just picked one of these up. To replace my dead jg ak47. Should be here on Saturday. Looking forward to finally getting to play airsoft with my son. He is running a colt m4 and a h&k usp co2. While i will be running this and my we-tech dragon hi-capa 5.1 with fully auto.
Thats actually a pretty good deal especially for what you get for as a beginner. I'd say the next other budget friendly gun would be a Cyma Platinum. You can literally get one for like $200 on Taiwangun right now (not including shipping). Doesn't come with a battery though.
Your videos have been extremely helpful. This review is so well done. I've narrowed it down to an Arcturus M4. Im curious if you think I should for this guys at $165 (in that slick grey.) Or spend a little more and go for the Arcturus Sword Lite ME Mod1 for $60 more at $225? I do like the fact that it has a metal handguard. Although I like how this one is grey and separates itself from the sea of black M4's. If you think the extra cash is worth it. What exactly makes you think that performance wise? Hopefully you see this (or someone more educated than myself about airsoft in the comments.) But either way keep making great videos and thorough reviews man.
Honestly I’d go with this only because a metal handguard won’t be leaps and bounds better than the polymer one even if you’re clumsy. The extra cash can be sent on some better gear so you’re more comfortable on the field. Performance wise, I can’t speak for the Sword Lite so I’d say compare the performance you see in other people’s videos to the performance you see in this video to see if one significantly outcompetes the other.
@@USAirsoft appreciate the insight! I was moreso into the metal handguard because of the way it would feel. But thinking more about it, I would be wearing gloves anyway so probably very little difference lol. Yeah no doubt I'll see if there's anything else that really differentiates them. But I do like the savings since I'm planning to pickup some decent quality accessories (chest rig, Valhalla mask, extra mags, etc.) I mean I could afford a much more expensive setup but I don't feel it's necessary. Yet at least lol. Used to play tournament paintball a lot on a sponsored team growing up. Quit for years and had a short stint with airsoft like 5 years ago. Decided to get back into it. Went to a CQB field a week ago with some buddies with rentals and had a blast. Definitely getting into it more this time. Hell, might even checkout a milsim event somewhere down the line, sounds fun. Again, appreciate it man. Your videos along with others have been very helpful in getting me back up to speed 🤙
The fact that beginner guns are getting cheaper and better instead of actually more expensive is awesome. With real steel i remember 10 years ago a beginner AR was around 400 usd. If you wanted high quality it was 700-800 bucks. If you wanted super high quality gucci rifles you had 1000-1500ish guns. Now, the 400 usd guns cost 800, the good enough high quality ones cost 1500s and gucci ARs are 2000+ some times. Not because the materials are more expensive, just because the market went into a 'dont be poor boi' type of mindset so a 500ish gun became a poor people gun.
What type of grip fits on this? I’m new to airsoft, got this rifle but I don’t know what kind of afg will fit because there are a few kinds. Looks like you got some kind of grip on yours. Thanks, and great video!
tbh, I like the polymer rails. If the gun is decently solid internally, I like all the lightweight plastic for those long days when you want to take it easy.
I got a JG M16A1 for $160 that I plan on playing with, (I haven’t played yet but I’ve been interested in Airsoft for about a year now) but obviously can’t put attachments on it, is that gonna be a bad way to start Airsoft?
I have an Arcturus AK-12 with the Perun mosfet and it's amazing. That being said, of all the AEGs I have there's only one of them that has performed flawless since I've bought it. It's the oldest of my AEGs, which is my Gen 3 Lancer. No feeding issues, no battery issues, very consistent and reliable. People are so easy to dog on cheaper guns just because it isn't rocking the newest and best internals, and yet these cheaper guns just become more reliable and affordable than some of the more high end ones. Even the first time I fielded my AK-12 I was having some issues, it doesn't have a flawless track record on it. Sometimes just having a decent M4 that works can be better than having a great anything else that has more possibility for failing parts, especially for beginners
Would you recommend this Arcturus for a MilSim event. Going to attend first MilSim with DesertFox. I'm still a noob airsofter and have a GBB Radian, but think AEG is more practical for MilSim
This would do you well before you decide to dump $400+ on something full metal and more high end. Performance wise you’ll do great without breaking the bank.
@@USAirsoft you have no idea how much i appreciate your response. Been doing so much research and haven't been able to make a final decision on what AEG to get. Love the channel and looks like the sun burn was worth it!
Hey I’m looking for starter guns to get my girlfriend into airsoft and this is perfect, do you know where I can purchase it with the battery and charger? I’m having trouble finding it. Slipknot for life btw
Check my loadout video, I explain everything there so people can look into everything I use: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R7bmY2JnbPY.htmlsi=mwtTeBUiPNIlIr9m
If you’re playing at a field I’d suggest you save your money and go with a primary first. The $130-$200 you might spend on a sidearm can go towards some really good eye protection or basic tactical gear.
I uh… don’t think that’s how that works. Not only have prices stayed the same for this gun, I also don’t think big companies would find U.S relevant (No offense U.S)
0:53 this is meant to the beginners. *video clip of a guy WHO OWNS AN HPA UNIT gripping the mag well instead of his actual, FUNCTIONAL VERTICAL FOREGRIP* 😂😂😂
I would probably buy a Cyma M16A2 or A3 clone myself. I'm a bit larger framed and want something different than 15 million other players running shorty M4s or AR based SMGs. Unless someone builds a Colt Canada C7 clone.
