MC6917M 16.5" Airsoft Rifle (Green Gas Powered) - Black [Golden Eagle]

The MC6917M 16.5" gas-powered airsoft rifle by Golden Eagle is a Green Gas-powered replica based on the 416 rifle family, equipped with a Gas Blowback (GBB) system and capable of both semi-automatic and fully automatic fire. The rifle combines a ~340 mm M-LOCK handguard with a top RIS rail, a 55-round metal magazine with Dry Fire functionality, and a 410 mm brass inner barrel with a 6.01 mm bore diameter, offering features suited to airsoft gameplay.

Construction and Mounting System

The Golden Eagle MC6917M replicates the design of rifles from the 416 family, featuring a 16.5" outer barrel and an extended handguard measuring ~340 mm. The receiver is made of metal, while other structural components incorporate steel, ZnAl alloy, and polymer.

An individual serial number is located on the upper receiver.

A RIS rail runs along the top of the upper receiver and handguard, allowing the installation of compatible accessories such as red dot sights, magnifiers, and flashlight pressure switches.

The handguard features an M-LOCK mounting system with 7 slots at both the 3 and 9 o'clock positions and 8 slots at the 6 o'clock position. This allows the installation of compatible foregrips, mounts, and other accessories using this standard.

Additional cutouts between the main mounting positions accommodate angled mounts, allowing accessories to be positioned at different angles.

The handguard also features two QD mounting points designed for attaching tactical sling swivels.

The outer barrel features a 14 mm CCW (counterclockwise) thread, allowing the installation of compatible muzzle devices.

Ergonomics and Stock Adjustment

The replica features a five-position adjustable stock, allowing the rifle's length to be adapted to the user's body type, tactical equipment, and preferred shooting position.

The overall length is 885 mm with the stock in its first position and 970 mm when extended to the fifth position.

The rear stock plate features attachment points for a tactical sling. Combined with the QD mounting points on the handguard, they allow users to adjust the rifle's carrying configuration to their preferences.

The rifle weighs ~2388 g without the magazine and ~2878 g with the magazine inserted.

Gas System and Dry Fire Function

The Golden Eagle MC6917M uses Green Gas as its power source and features a Gas Blowback (GBB) system that operates the bolt during firing. This mechanism replicates the bolt's cycling action and supports realistic handling of the airsoft rifle.

The rifle supports semi-automatic and fully automatic fire, allowing users to adapt their firing mode to different situations during gameplay.

The included metal low-cap gas magazine holds 55 BBs and features a Dry Fire function, allowing the replica's mechanism to cycle without feeding BBs.

This function enables users to practice rifle handling, trigger control, and weapon manipulation without using airsoft BBs during training.

Inner Barrel and Adjustable Hop-Up System

The rifle is equipped with a 410 mm brass GBB inner barrel with a 6.01 mm bore diameter. Its dimensions support BB guidance during firing and operation with the hop-up system.

The replica uses a dedicated polymer hop-up chamber and a dedicated hop-up bucking. The adjustable system allows users to adapt the amount of backspin applied to the BB according to the weight of the ammunition used.

The factory muzzle velocity in the STOCK configuration is ~350 FPS.
The hop-up system is adjusted using a dedicated key included in the set.

Before adjusting the hop-up, make sure there is no BB in the chamber. Next, remove the magazine, pull the bolt to its rear position, and lock it in place using the bolt catch.

Insert the adjustment key through the ejection port, then position its guiding section inside the simulated barrel locking extension. This allows the key to be properly aligned with the hop-up adjustment mechanism.

Rotate the key according to the markings on the adjustment mechanism to change the hop-up setting and adjust the BB's flight trajectory to the ammunition being used.
