A&K M60VN Full Metal


The A&K M60VN is a full metal AEG version of the M60 machine gun used in Vietnam. The A&K M60VN features an auto-winding box mag and an adjustable rate-of-fire. The folding bipod and metal construction make this beast weight about 20 pounds.

Externally, this features fully adjustable sights and a folding bipod. The battery is stored inside the magazine sack on the side of the gun, and is easy to access. It fits a mini 9.6v easily, and could carry up to 2000Mah battery inside the cloth sack. The auto-winding box mag feeds along with the gearbox, ensuring the magazine feeds in sync with the gun.

Internally, the A&K M60 VN uses the same gearbox as the A&K and Classic Army M249, including the quick change spring feature. 8mm bearings and standard steel gears are the norm in A&K and Echo1 Machine Guns, and are found here as well. The rate of fire adjuster is unique to this AEG. The ROF is adjusted by turning the very front of the gas assembly. Once set, the adjustor can be locked with a threaded ring.

Our test model chrono'd at 360fps. With the hop-up set, it acheived above average range and accuracy. This is due in part to the 590mm inner barrel. With the Rate-Of-Fire adjusted down, this AEG maintains a steady, slow ROF very similar to the real M60. (It can even be adjusted slower, if desired). The outer barrel can be removed with the takedown lever, and allows for easy cleaning of the barrel or installation of a tightbore.

If you're looking for a unique support weapon, or if you've always wanted a replica of the Vietnam era M60, then try the A&K M60VN. It's solid, full metal construction is both durable and impressive to hold. The gearbox is more than capable of any upgrades desired, and the adjustable rate of fire allows for either high-performance or a realistic setting.

How is the quality of this gun compared to C&A? does it need repairs every 1000 shot? or is it reliable as a MACHINE GUN?
