It is a shame that the A&K M249 MkII does not come with a box magazine as this part gives the weapon its character. I bought one separately, together with a decorative link of bullets which gives more than a hint of realism.

The easiest firing position is lying full length; I carried the A&K M249 MkII around using the carrying handle. The gun is quite a weight. I'm now wondering whether I need a sling: firing from the waist would be easier.

If you find guns fascinating, this gun will bring you much pleasure.

I finally got this gun for christmas and I have been wanting this gun for years!! And let me just say it is incredible! I love it! The build quality is 5* and the weight is not as heavy as everybody makes out, you do feel it after a while but it is not overly heavy. It is just right. Full auto only on this thing, just like the real gun itself.

The battery goes in the stock and it is very easy to get in. It is not a tight fit like some of my other guns. I really like the fold out bi-pod too; I think it's great. Power is excellent, around 380 fps. And the accuracy okay too. I bought a box magazine else where and will soon be purchasing some dummy rounds from this site to make it look even better.

Well over all I think you should buy this gun. You will not be disappointed! We all know you have been wanting to buy this gun for a long time ;) So just do it!
And once again outstanding service from airsoft world.

I used one of these for a few hours and it was fantastic, perfect weight, extremely powerful. I am waiting to order one for myself any day now.

I would like to know an estimate as to when it may come into stock, would it be possible to get a reply for one? Thanks.

AW answer: When A&K decides to start making them again :)

i bought the para version in two tonne,
a very well built weapon as i am a bit "heavy handed" the weight really did help. as other airsoft guns feel a little "light"
i have had it for about 6 months and no problems yet.
it is a bit expensive for what it is and what you get,. but all in all a good weapon.

again can not speak highly enough of the customer service at airsoft world,

I bought this AEG hoping it would be as good as they say it was and when i got it. it was great, not the fastest rate of fire to be honest but definitely a solid build.
it is also really quite heavy so not recommended for long game days or else your arms will become very tired unless you are quite strong also i found the box mag can fall out quite easily and also the Bi-pod is a bit crappy but still it look's good also the battery is quite small and rattles in the stock but i just put some foam in and it sorted it out, but at 350fps its not too bad.
not my favorite gun but if you like big heavy machine guns this is definitely for you and also it only has full automatic no semi just like the real thing !!!
pricing is quite high for what it is (£199.99 i would only buy if you really really want it )

AW answer: No :) They will be increasing in price VERY soon....

bought one from Airsoft World, the two tone version and it was delivered in like 3 days, all the old problems with these had been fixed such as dry gear box etc, the only problem i had was the hop up was terrible but i simply bought a new hop up unit for the classic army M249 now it works like a dream, heavy but not as heavy as everyone says, it is an amazing airsoft gun

i realy like the look of the gun but i wounder if it comes with a battery and mag hodler

AW answer: It comes with a mini battery, box magazine and the 'hodler' also takes standard M16 mags.
