The Double Eagle M86 AK-47 marks a major turning point for China-made airsoft guns. This is the first high end production AEG from China and we must say that Double Eagle has outdone themselves on this one. First Impressions The Double Eagle M86 AK-47 is modeled after a Romanian made AK-47 variant, so the first thing you will notice is the difference in selector pattern from the traditional AK. One click down from safety is semi-automatic for controlled, accurate shots. Drop the selector down another click to full auto and at the squeeze of the trigger the M86 fires 13 shots in under a second. The overall finish of the gun is outstanding as you can hopefully tell from the image. It is extremely hard to tell the plastic parts from the metal parts because the finish is that good. Boasting an extremely high metal content the Double Eagle M86 AK-47 weighs in at just under 7 pounds fully loaded. Metal parts include: •muzzle/front sight •barrel •mock cleaning rod •front sling mount •click adjustable rear sight •bolt •upper receiver cover •trigger guard •trigger •selector switch •rear sling mount •butt plate The upper receiver cover has a plastic tri-rail mount attached to it with three screws. However, this can be removed for a more traditional AK look, although it does leave three holes in the cover. Mounting a red dot and bi-pod does make a pretty mean looking RPK wannabe though! The imitation wood finish on the M86 Double eagle AK-47 has a less reflective, more wood-like appearance than the Marui, and even when handling and tapping on it with my nails, I still cannot believe it’s plastic. Technical Specs Some details on the Double Eagle M86: •Muzzle velocity: Approx. 300+ fps w/ .2g •Rate of fire: 825 RPM •Weight: 6.75 lbs •Magazine capacity: 240 rds •Length: 34.5 inches •Battery: Large type 8.4v Conclusion After an extensive performance testing session, we have come to the conclusion that the Double Eagle M86 AK-47 offers very close performance to a Marui for half the price. The trigger is very responsive with very little delay. The M86 uses a standard Version 3 metal gearbox with metal gears which is compatible with most Marui upgrades. The largest battery you can fit into the stock is an 8.4v 1800mah however with a 30 second modification you can shoehorn in an 8.4v 3300mah. Behind the spring loaded bolt lies the adjustable hop up just like on the Marui. The hop-up adjustment slider has a very solid feel to it and does not vibrate out of position even during full-auto firing. The M86 magazines are also compatible with Marui magazines, and every magazine that is compatible with a Marui will work in the M86 Double eagle AK-47. Included with the M86 will be a 340 round high capacity magazines, 8.4v 1100mah battery pack, (The loading tool is not needed to load the included high capacity magazines, but is a nice feature in case you order some standard magazines for the gun.) Overall, this gun has the weight, strength, durability, and accuracy that can hold its own against any other airsoft gun brand, and at half the price of a Marui! Now, that’s what we call “Value for Money”!
