    Awesome look and great performance
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2012*

This is a steal.  Thompson machine guns are the coolest looking assault rifles on the airsoft market today.  Normally this gun sells for $220 but the gun constantly goes on sale on Amazon.  I bought the thompson before Christmas when it was on sale 40% off for $135.  I'll list the pros and cons then describe in detail the reasoning.Pros:Looks awesome, 1:1 replica of the M1A1Full metal body constructionGood FPS with 0.20 g bbsExtremely accurate for a machine gunGreat range of fireHigh cap metal stick magezine (380 rounds)Easy to reloadPlenty of room for battery storage in the stockGood feel, heavy and sturdyCons:Slower rate of fire than other AEGOrange safety cap is very largeShoulder strap is very weakWood parts are made of ABS plasticStock is big, harder for smaller people to holdSmall battery includedMade in ChinaI own an Orphus Socom Special Operations Full Metal Tactical M14 AEG, Kalashnikov Full Metal Real Wood AK47 AEG, Full Metal Tactical Shotgun, K&W P30 AEG pistol and a Full Metal Double Eagle pistol.  So I have some experience with different types of AEGs.-The overall look of the gun itself is great.  Looks exactly like the real M1A1 and the ones in the movies.-All black parts of the rifle are metal.  There is no plastic on the gun besides the orange tip.-The FPS is around 340-370 fps with 0.20 g bbs.  Do not use anything lighter than 0.20.  You can find cheap 0.20 g bbs on Amazon so don't say that 0.20 bbs are more expensive than 0.12s.-The sights on the gun are dead on.  Do not mess with the sight before using it. There are two sight options: The standard rear sight and a circle sight similar to that of an MP5.  The rear sight is dead on every shot.  The circle sight is much more spread for close quarter firing situations.  If you want distance, use rear sight, if you need close shooting, who really uses the sights anyways.  Point and shoot.  Overall the accuracy is better than my AK47 for sure and even more precise than my M14 which is very surprising.-Can definitely shoot on target up to about 50-60 yards with power.  After that, you're not really doing any damage with the gun.  But great distance for a machine gun out shooting my M14 sniper rifle.-The stick mag that comes with the gun is a high cap magezine.  All the other reviews basically say it comes with a low cap mag, it doesn't.  380 high capacity metal magazine.  As all airsoft clips and magezines, the mag needs wound at the bottom about every 100-150 rounds and will not shoot the last 30 bbs even if you hear them bouncing aroung in there.  This is normal for all AEGs.  The stick mag looks cool on this thompson model but you can always purchase drum mags.-You don't need two hands to reload or take the mag out.  Push up with your right thumb and drop the mag out with your left hand easy.  Do not hit the mag up into place with your hand, it will damage the mag and the feed in the gears.-When you get the gun, open the quarter size circle on the butt of the gun, put your index finger through and pull the whole back plate out and twist it to the side.  Now remove the gray/black foam with pliers from inside the stock.  Now place the battery on one side of the compartment and the wires on the other.  Plenty of room for a small or large battery.-Gun weighs about 7.5 pounds with a full mag and battery.  This is the average weight on an AEG as well as real rifles.  All my AEGs weigh over 7 pounds.-The rate of fire (ROF) is noticably slower than that of other AEGs.  This is what gives the gun such good accuracy though.  A P90 or MP5 for example have some of the fastest ROF in airsoft but horrible accuracy at distance.  Choose based on your type of battle needs.-Orange cap is the largest I have ever seen on any AEG, however the design is made for it to almost fall off in two pieces up and down.  Against state laws so taking this off is all your choice and yours alone.  But its possible on this model.-Shoulder stap sucks.  Its the same one that came with my M14 and that one broke in the middle of battle and almost broke my gun.  Do not trust this $2 strap to support your $200 AEG.  Don't use it, buy heavier connectors or buy a whole new strap.-The wood parts are made of ABS plastic.  It is fairly noticable that the wood is fake and made of plastic.  I don't know why other reviews say the wood looks so real unless they have never seen real wood in their life.  And very noticable when you feel it.  I however like this because it keeps the weight down and the real wood they build airsoft guns with is not always the best.  My AK47 is made with some kind of pine wood and kind of takes away from the gun a little bit.  Plus real wood chips and scratches easier than the ABS.  Just don't abuse the gun or these parts may brake and don't expect the plastic to look like real wood.-I am six foot tall and the gun stock is perfect for me.  But it is very different than other AEGs in that the shoulder stock is low on the gun so the sight line up and that makes it hard for shorter people to handle and shoot.  Got to have long arms to effectively use the gun.-Very small batter included, same one that came with my AK47.  May want to upgrade to a larger for faster ROF.-Made in China, but what isn't these days.  Almost all airsoft gears, stocks and parts are manufactured and assembled in China.  Big companies just stamp their logo on their and call it licensed to charge more for it.  This is the same gun.The package includes:Rifle without magezine in the gun380 round high cap metal stick magezineGreen shoulder strap (There are rings mounted on the gun for straps to be attached)8.4V batteryBattery charger compatable with the 8.4V battery includedBarrel clearing rodTwo page manual with pictures (not in depth)Cyber Gun catelogSome people say tighten the screws on the stock or it will fall off, but just check them to make sure they're not loose.  If you tighten them and it's already tight, it may break the stock.  No place to mount scopes or tactical gear (This gear would make the gun look dumb anyways).  Safety switch on the gun is easy to use and is the same set up as the semi/auto switch, both are metal switches you flick before firing.  White printing on the gun to imitate that of the real M1A1 and looks good except for the Made in China one right under the USA print.Gun is great.  Congratulations to Cyber Gun for producing a high end AEG let alone a full metal thompson.  I love this gun and I would highly recommend it, but buy it on sale.  The prices on the gun vary daily, just keep watching for it to drop below $150.  Have fun.

*by T***T on Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2012*

Just to offer a bit of background, I am a formally trained gunsmith (now a hobbyist only) and an engineer (definitely not a hobby yet). I bought this Thompson to use in a carnival-type booth for an upcoming Halloween party.  I planned to project a video image of on-coming zombies onto a roll of butcher paper suspended from the ceiling and allow the costume-clad children to mow down the living dead with the full-auto Thompson.  I only had one chance to get this right, with hundreds depending on and looking forward to my booth, so reliability was absolutely essential; muzzle velocity and rate of fire were only secondary considerations. I had visited a number of brick-and-mortar establishments seeking a recommendation, but none were as helpful as the many reviews here.  The overwhelmingly positive reports compelled me to go with the Thompson, even though it is probably one of the heaviest options and could pose a problem for smaller children. So, here's how it played out.I ordered an extra battery and stick magazine with the Thompson, since, if either failed, the booth would be a bust.  The box was marked "King Arms" and, surprisingly, came with a 8.4V 2000 maH battery (the literature indicated a 8.4V 1000 maH battery).  After charging the battery with the trickle charger for the specified time (the battery will start to get warm to the touch when fully charged), I loaded the approximately 60-round magazine, set up a sheet in my living room, and fired a short burst.  Quite unexpectedly, the BBs zipped right through the sheet!!!  While impressive, this posed a problem, since I planned to use a sheet as a back stop to prevent ricochets.  By increasing the distance, hanging the sheet at an angle, and shooting through butcher paper first, no more holes appeared in the sheet, and the BBs were directed to roughly one corner of the room with almost no ricochets.  The full-auto rate of fire was also just about right, sounding very realistic and allowing about a 6 or 7 second turn for each child, longer if using shorter bursts.To my great delight, at the booth, the Thompson proved utterly reliable, even when, as feared, many of the children just held the trigger down until the magazine was empty (the muzzle crack is very different when a BB does not come out, clearly signaling an empty magazine)...the Thompson did not skip a beat!  The weight was an issue for a few smaller kids, but just a little hand to help steady the gun was sufficient. A few of the kids unexpectedly elected to shoot semi-auto only, I guess to prolong their turns.  Without exception, each finished his or her turn beaming from ear to ear.  Disneyland-class lines started to form at my booth (there were 6 other attractions), and so I started to worry about running out of battery, even with the spare. My worries were unfounded, however, as, just as the last child completed his turn, I heard the rifle's action slowing...and we were still using the first battery. Judging from the number of BBs left in a the 5000 BB bag, I estimate we shot about 3500 rounds on one 2000 maH battery charge, almost entirely on full-auto mode. This equates to about 60 kids.Just to set the record straight, the rifle I received definitely was not all metal, as many here have suggested.  The stocks are very well molded wood-grain plastic, as reported, but the lower receiver, that houses the trigger mechanism, safety and selector switches, and the magazine well, and to which the pistol grip and butt stock attach, are also molded plastic.  The difference in temperature when touched is the first give away, and, when tapping on both, the upper receiver and barrel give a metallic ping, while the lower gives a plastic thud. There is even a molding seam on the trigger guard. I don't really care at this point, since I am so impressed with the Thompson's performance, but buyers need to be aware.  I suppose it's possible earlier versions did feature aluminum lower receivers, but mine does not, and it weighs about the same 7 lbs, just like the other reviewers indicated.  And, regarding weight, I've owned real Thompsons, and they weigh more like 11 lbs, unloaded, which I suspect would be way too heavy for Airsoft games.I've since used the Thompson to riddle bug-eaten fruit on our apple tree into apple sauce (great fun for the grand kids), and the rifle just does not fail, in full auto or semi-auto modes, and I can hit a smallish apple from 60 to 70 feet away, every time. As an engineer, I would characterize the design of this Airsoft rifle as "thoroughly debugged."If reliability, performance, and realistic appearance are important to you, this is the one to buy. I can recommend it without reservation.
