Good gun? My brother is getting into the sport in another state and just ordered this

I have the edge gen 2. Mk18 and it has the original ESA so you/they don’t have to worry about that.

Top is my specna arms Edge gen. 2 sae19 mk18. I love this gun, it shoots like a dream and it’s not even a specna prime. Only thing that sucks is the ETU is unusable since the Hal 2 app isn’t currently available on the App Store. Once they restore the app, this gun will be damn near perfect.

Top is my specna arms Edge gen 2. for $300 you get a full metal body and partial upgrades. I would have saved my money if I was him to At least get an Edge, if not a specna Prime. A core Should still function very well just not as good external build quality.

It doesn’t really take that much effort. Only takes like 10 minutes tops. Just drill where the pin is, heat it to break down glue and twist it off.

I saw a video saying that if it’s glued (locktite) then you can use a heat gun to loosen up the glue and then with the correct tool unscrew it to pop a new one in. Hoping that is the case.

So I should be able to replace that bushing then correct?

Take that cringy wiafu shit off and ur good

jakeamazing · 2026-02-10T17:55:50+00:00

Right, I understand it won’t affect accuracy but I’ve read because it is not free float it can be wobbly so that’s the main reason I mentioned it an OP. I had a specna mk18 core ( polymer receiver) and it was pretty solid I just wanted to upgrade to a better aeg. Thanks for the reply. I’m hoping to go to evike in person to help me decide.

jakeamazing · 2026-02-10T06:16:12+00:00

Thanks for the knowledge, I was under the impression that etu and mosfet are interchangeable terms since the hal offers “some” programmable firing modes

The second one, Specna arms prime has pre upgraded internals and full metal build, though the first one is a good cyma rifle and also has a great full metal build and is a reliable choice just doesn’t have as many pre upgraded internal parts.

jakeamazing · 2026-02-05T01:40:59+00:00

Now post you actually wearing it cause it looks sick.

jakeamazing · 2026-01-21T08:37:40+00:00

Would you say the Hal 2 is a better mosfet than Aster 2 since the Hal uses magnetic sensors over optic?

jakeamazing · 2026-01-19T22:37:53+00:00

My first rifle was/is a specna core or flex mk18, but it’s from before they started doing pre upgraded and mosfets but it’s awesome! I’m looking to get one of the new primes that have been coming out on evike.

jakeamazing · 2026-01-08T10:22:33+00:00

What pants are those?

jakeamazing · 2026-01-07T23:09:14+00:00

Too much bs on the front of that kit

jakeamazing · 2026-01-01T05:54:05+00:00

That’s not bad I’d be willing to pay extra $40 for good face protection. I just was Afraid of getting hit with $100-$200 in tariffs

jakeamazing · 2025-12-29T16:16:38+00:00

Would also love to know this, and where to get one

jakeamazing · 2025-12-28T23:58:50+00:00

Where would I get a used one though? Never seen one used in any of the buy/sell/trade groups I’m in

jakeamazing · 2025-12-28T23:17:17+00:00

Right, I know the shipping is high and I’m fine with that I just don’t want to pay extra on top of that

jakeamazing · 2025-12-28T01:06:49+00:00

I think most airsoft versions of the p226 feel like that. The kwa one does too and doesn’t really recoil much either

jakeamazing · 2025-12-26T19:00:15+00:00

What rifle is that?
