Airsoft rifle GC16 Predator, Full metal, Electronic trigger
There is a wide range of the M4 AEGs on the maket. Cheaper or more expensive, plastic or metal, black or TAN..etc. GC16 Predator rifle is one of the best rifles you can get in this segment. G&G Armament (Taiwan) is a manufacturer with a long tradition. It offers high quality workmanship, performance and reliability.
The most interesting is inside. Trigger contacts have been replaced by electronic micro-switches, and electronic circuit is hidden in the stock tube. It is called as E.T.U. (Electronic trigger unit).
Advantages:
• Ultra-fast trigger response!
• More sensitive trigger with a shorter stroke.
• MOSFET - protect trigger contacts against burning and worn.
• Ability to set BURST instead of full auto mode. It means three shots per one
trigger press. (Set by holding the shutter mode dose for more than 10 seconds
after disconnecting the battery goes off)
Metal upper and lower receiver perfectly fit. There appear to be no burrs or
traces of casting. The body has modern shape. Magazine can be released from the
both sides of the receiver. Also selector switch is on the both sides of the gun.
The bottom part of the body is laser marked with the manufacturer's logo and a unique serial number.
The gun is fitted with KeyMod foregrip, which is very popular and advanced system when using locks easily and quickly attach the mounting RIS rails. The system is very flexible and it is up to the user how much, how long and where the rail is fitted. These rails needs to be purchased separately according to user needs. The advantage of this system is its low weight. Barrel, which passes through the foregrip, firmly bolted and there is no absolutely wooble.
The battery is inserted into the body of the plastic sliding butt style Crane LMT. The gun has a classic MiniTamyia connector. The stock is obviously sliding, six-position, with the locking mechanism.
Magazine is plastic, high cap - 300 BBs. It has ergonomic rubber cover, so no slip during re-load and ensures fast charging. It is also possible to use it as a front grip.
Inside the gun is metal gearbox with an 8mm ball bearings, steel gears and
M120 spring. Velocity of this gun is about 125 m / s (410 FPS). Suitable
ammunition is 0,25g BB. Use battery min 9,6V NiMH or 7,4V LiPo. Best is 11,1V !
ATTENTION
Once you set up the hop-up alway set the hop-up to minimal - the adjustment knob is turned to the left.
Shoot several BBs, gently pull the adjustment knob to the right.
Repeat the process until you reach the desired hop-up effect.
Too much hop-up (knob turned right) can cause the BB jam and, in the extreme case, piston damage.
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE.
