CM.356 Tactical - Black [CYMA]

TLDR: gun = good, try 0.23 BLS BBs


Pros:

+ Features other similarly priced shotguns don't offer
+ Reliability
+ Cheap, ubiquitous shell mags
+ Weighs nothing
+ The breacher muzzle goes hard


Cons:

- The fiber optic front sight is pointless. It sits way too low in relation to the top rail and the receiver.
- The shell holder peels off the paper from the shells, sometimes even resulting in shells getting stuck. Remove the paper from your shotshells before use.
- Hard to disassemble, repair and especially upgrade possibilities very limited. However, if the internals fail and you need a new gun, you could get a much cheaper plain model and transfer the tacticool bits to it.


The build quality is ok in relation with the price, but DE level of quality would be nice and not too much to expect. That being said this is the only trishot in the price range that offers as many 'tactical' features.

In my experience, the fixed hop up likes 0,23 g BLS BBs.

Overall this is a really fun shotgun, which can have a bit more effective range than most others due to it's optics rail + fixed stock combo. I also like to put the railed pieces to my stockless version, as a red dot allows me to actually hit something with it. I recommend it for shotgun enjoyers and those in need of a trusty, viable back up for a reasonable price.

Great replica out of the box, sturdy and fun to use.
The loading gate takes a while to wear in and you need to heat the front sight to fit it on the barrel.
The side shell holder is a bit tight and will scratch your shells if not worn in.

This shotgun is awesome! It is lightweight, has a nice Picatinny rail, and comes with a 6-shell holder, 1x CYMA shotgun shell, speed loader, unjamming rod, as well as a fiber-optic sight. Regarding the performance, mine was great right out of the box. I was able to shoot 180 rounds consecutively with no jamming problems & it has a nice fixed hop-up tight spread. I would also like to mention that this gun can slam fire. Another cool fact I forgot to mention is that the muzzle brake can be removed by unscrewing. Lastly, I believe that this gun is a must buy and the price is quite reasonable.
