[Set] AK Carbine AT-AK04 [Arcturus] + Airsoft DK-9 Style Russian Red Dot Sight for AK [JJ Airsoft]

This DK-9 style red dot really performs well in airsoft! It’s easy to mount, stays steady, and gives you a clear view of the target. The lens protector is a handy addition, and the battery lasts longer than you’d expect. If you’ve got an AK replica, it’s definitely worth trying out – a lot of people praise it, and for good reason.

It's sturdy enough, being built out of metal and quite heavy, but:
- dot intensity is quite low. During day time I have to set it to penultimate or even ultimate position;
- dot can't be adjusted too much. For example, horizontally I maxed it out to right, but it's still off by a few meters from target center;
- drains battery really fast. During winter time, a battery lasts 2-3 game days.

This AK is really good replica, it’s authentic and well crafted.

Pros. Authentic, sturdy, almost full metal. While wielding AK you gain 5+ manliness. In the box you will find some patches, magnets, stickers from the manufacturer.

Cons. One of the main minuses for being an authentic replica is the weight it’s really heavy, could be too heavy for younger or lighter players..
Due to the original design the firing mode is on the right side of the gun and not the left like most western AR’S you have to get used to it and it’s not so comfortable. The magazine that comes with the gun is flimsy and is low in quality. Oh and one more quite big con for the AK family is the lack of decent BB speed loader.

Therefore I would suggest to buy some additional attachments together with the gun that will fix the cons and will fit perfectly.

1. 130RD AK74 REINFORCED POLYMER MAGAZINE - BLACK [CYMA]. Magazine is good quality plastic, with good grip and fits the gun very well.

2. HEAVY DUTY 1-POINT BUNGEE SLING - BLACK [CS]. Due to the heavy weight of the gun sling is a must. This sling fits the gun well for me.

3. SUPPORT FORE GRIP - BLACK [FMA] I would recommend to buy a fore grip as well for the better control of the gun and more comfortable carry.

4. GENS ACE 25C 1400MAH 2S1P 11.1V AIRSOFT LIPO MINI T-PLUG the gun comes with no battery, this battery fits the gun and it’s really powerful.


Conclusion, the gun is a great buy, it shoots very well, it feels sturdy and well made. Heavy build simulates real AK and it’s not for weaklings, but it’s fun to feel your hands sore after full day skirmish. I will also buy a red dot for the gun but have to do a research.

Sturdy build with a included killflash makes this a great addition no matter your loadout.
The dot is clear and helps aiming with no major adjustment needed right out of the box. It flips clock-wise between different brightnesses but can also flip to full brightness from "OFF" instantly if you flip it counter-clockwise. Helpful for those tight situations where you don't want to fidget with the settings.
Beware that it will not fit properly on uneven RIS such as the CYMA AK-mount (FBP0372) due to it being fastened with two screws. Make sure it is even 22mm.

This gun is fantastic. From the rock solid build quality to the laser beam performance. All the party are solid and of high quality and even at 1 J of power It shoots straight at 55/60 meters. Basically is one of the best stock AEG that money can buy.

+ looks great
+ Can use a rechargeable AA battery
+ Comes with a kill flash
+ Very sturdy build, with the metal construction

- bit on the heavy side

Note that was a little bit bigger than I expected

Arcturus impresses

This was my first ever purchase with Arcturus. I've read decent things about their airsoft replica quality, and their new Ak's have caught my attention lately. The box itself is very nice, and it came with lots of unexpected goodies in the box. The replica is heavy duty, rock solid, and overall well built. My only complaint is there was some rust in my inner barrell strangely enough, and it took a lot of barrel cleaning before it looked clear shining a light through. Here's my breakdown:

Pros
-rugged, solid Externals (heavy gun)
-(shimmed by TG) Very clean and quite gearbox. Sounds very smooth and well shimmed.
- easy hop up adjustment wheel that's arguably the best ak hop up made right now.
- shoot very well on a 7.4 lipo

Cons
- the only con I have it's going to be that this ak is going to be very tedious to dissasemble in the future for upgrades. Not any easy gearbox breakdown, and it's even a but of work to get to the inner barrel.
