Airsoft assault rifle replica ELS-74UN Platinum GATE ASTER SE V3

Brand E&L Airsoft, known for producing realistic and indestructible wood and steel replicas, with this one presenting a refreshed version of the AKS-74UN replica.

The best guarantee of realism is the fact that E&L airsoft guns are assembled in a factory dedicated to the manufacture of firearms, and consequently, some external components are identical to their firearm counterpart and come off the same production line. The manufacturer has taken care of the smallest details to bring its replicas as close as possible to the original.

The carbine belongs to the Platinum series where the level of attention to detail has been brought to perfection. Inside the replicas of this series, you will find a number of high quality parts to improve both performance and durability, characteristic of high-end tuning replicas.

Steel components have been oxidized, which makes them look even more realistic. Also, the attrition process which takes place over time makes oxidized surfaces look much better than it happens by painted or varnished guns.

Also in terms of weight all was made to ensure realism. The replica is heavy, and a full steel outer barrel ensures proper balance. A notable feature is certainly the possibility of a partial field-stripping of the replica, like it takes place with the a real steel - with no tools required. Everything is based on pins and levers. The manufacturer paid attention to even of the smallest of details to make their product as close a resemblence to the real steel as possible.

Taken straight from the box, the replica is secured in a thick, technical oil that safeguards the product from humidity and possible contamination during transport. A mixture of oil, steel and lacquered wood emits a unique smell, well-known to people in constant contact with firearms.

The replica's battery is located under the lock chamber cover. The cover is mounted on a latch, which allows its rapid removal and replacement of the power source at any time.
