Echo 1 G36C airsoft?

Question

I am looking for an airsoft gun. The Echo 1 G36C is right in my price range. It would be my first good (over $40) AEG. I have never really played airsoft but I hope to someday. Does anyone recommend this gun for a good mid range first AEG? thanks

Answer 1

Yes.

Answer 2

I think I would buy the JG.  This is coming from a guy that owns the Echo1.

This site will test fire it so you know it works.   Unless you don't want to order online.  The Echo is a great first gun.  My son uses one every weekend.

Hey

I personally have this gun and you have no idea how excited I was to get it. Here's my review. If you live near seattle I recommend you get it from Airsoft Northwest: http://www.airsoftnw.com/

Here's my review, I'd give it 9.5/10 and definitely recommend it.

1. First off, the box:

The box is very neat. There's a plastic cover over the gun, and everything is neatly tucked aeay. There's no info on the box, but the gun has a metal gear box and goes 360FPS with 0.20 gram pellets. The box includes the gun, cleaning/jamming rod, 8.4V 1100mAH battery, 8.4 Volt 250mAH charger, very well written instructions (out of China and well translated?! Thank GOD!), and 200 low-grade 0.20 gram BBs you shouldn't use (use high grade BBs, such as TSD or KSC).

2. The Body:

The body is extremely strong ABS plastic, and is very sturdy. There's a few metal parts, such as the trigger, fire selector switch, and flash hider. There's even a cover for the muzzle, like barrel bags for paintball guns. The stock is foldable, and is locked in place (both folded and extended) very securely. No worries about the body. Very durable. Comes with a bottom RIS rail and one on the top, so you can mount your laser and red dot sights. The stock sites (Also metal) are good too.

3. Battery Compartment, Battery, and Charger

The battery compartment is in the front foregrip and is very well designed and the battery fits snug. It doesn't take to long to figure out how to put the battery in and it's very easy to do so (unlike the *cough* Well R8 *cough*). The battery is faily high powered, it lasted me through out a 2 hour airsoft war. The charger should charge the battery in 4.4 hours (4hrs 24min). The charger isn't a smart charger, so you're going to have to be there when the charge is complete because the charger will keep trying to charge the battery and the battery will melt.

4. Performance:

Gun shoots REALLY hard at 360FPS with a 0.20 gram. Use 0.20 gram through 0.25 (I haven't tried 0.23 or 0.25 gram yet), do NOT use 0.12 gram. WILL damage your gearbox/motor and just curves way up. Use high quality BBs to prolong the life of your gun.

The BBs left a huge welt on my buddy's arm at about 75 feet. It leaves pock marks in my wood fence from about 35 feet. The gun is also very accurate. I recommend a red dot sight or a laser sight.

Pros

-Heavy Weight

-Velocity is very high at 360FPS

-Nice sound when firing

-Gun is very sturdy and durable

-Internals

-Accurate

-Intimidating

-The whole design

-Heavy weight (6-8lbs, I'm not good at estimating weight)

-Gun is just s**y looking!

Cons

-Heavy weight (would be remedied with a strap)

-No strap

-Fire selecter switch is sloppy

OVERALL: 9.5/10

NOTE: Make sure you adjust the hopup if the accuracy is bad and I recommend lubricating the gun with 100% silicon oil every 3000 rounds.
