R85A2 Assault Rifle Replica
A replica presented by Army Armament will definitely satisfy any fan of Great Britain – it is an airsoft equivalent of the well-known, British standard issue assault rifle. The replica was made with the use of materials similar to those used in the production of live firearm. Very good craftsmanship together with a massive, tight construction and weight that closely resembles that of the original makes this replica a truly impressive sight to see.
The body was made from an embossed steel sheet, other metal parts include the outer barrel, fixed iron sights, carrying handle and magazine. The stock has a thick, rubber pad. Parts made from a reinforced polymer include the handguard, pistol grip and cheek pad.
The bull-pup design allowed for the use of a 510mm long barrel, while the replica has a total length of 790mm. Once the carrying handle has been removed, the user gains access to a top, 20mm mounting rail, dedicated for SUSAT optical sight, as in the original firearm. Inside the pistol grip is a small compartment, which can store, for example, small tools or spare batteries.
The implementation of front, 22mm RIS rail conversion kit provides a base for attachment of a wide array of additional accessories such as flashlights, tactical grips and optical sights.
Hop-up system can be regulated after the cocking handle has been pulled back. The handle remains in the rear position and can be release upon the press of a bolt-catch button. The battery is stored inside the handguard. In order to remove it, a screw needs to be removed. The battery connectors can be accessed after opening the upper flap of the handguard.
R85A2 features a Blow Back system, which sets the slide replica in motion and provides the user with increased amount of realism and brings the replica even closer to the original.
The replica comes with a metal, hi-cap magazine with a capacity of up to 300 BBs.
The set includes:
- a replica- a magazine
NiMH, Li-Po and Li-Ion batteries charging tips:
Muzzle velocity [FPS] It is the spped of bb, while its leaving the innerbarrel of replica. This speed is measured in FPS (Feet Per Second). 1 FPS = 0,3 m/s 1 J = 99 m/s 1 J = 326,7 FPS | 400 |
| Gearbox version Indications v2, v3, v6 does not mean the level of advance, but only shape of gearbox skeleton which was used and selected by the manufacturer depending on the capabilities of the body of the replica. For example, a models of the M4/M16 family, MP5, have a v2 gearbox, while the AK family have gearbox v3. | Special Gearbox |

| Hop-Up Hop-Up system is used for overclocking bb during the shot (putting it in rotation), through which, it extends its flight path. Acting laws of physics make that bb lift up, while the gravitational force take it down. Appropriate adjustment of Hop-Up, will compensate for these two factors, which result in long and straight flight for longer distance and be greater focus shot (to improve accuracy). | Yes |
| Blow Back Blow back is a simulation system of the cocking lever - it imitates the work of it as the equivalent sharp. This system raises the realism and adds a lot more experience during shooting. | Yes |
| Made of | plastic + metal |
| Battery included NiCd
rechargeable battery is characterized by high efficiency
current-carrying capacity, but there are disruptive effect on memory.
Should be unloaded and loaded in the full cycle, ie, it is recommended
to fully discharge, and after unloading must charge the battery
immediately without leaving it for a long time in a discharged state. | No |
