Echo1 / Nemesis Arms "VANQUISH" Take Down Bolt Action Airsoft Sniper Rifle w/ Hard Case

"Awesome gun, accurate, full metal, and if you’re not convinced buying it watch The Killer on Netflix and you will fall in love with it.

"It’s a great gun but, when I first shot it it didn’t have enough power to see through my scope. And It is very hard to find comparable parts for so that something to keep in mind with this gun. But overall I love the quality and performance of the gun

"Amazing accuracy straight out of the box. Love the weight and the ability to take it down so easily makes transporting it to and from the field a breeze.

Those with larger hands like myself may find their trigger finger rubbing against the safety (which is just in front of the trigger) a little bit, but it's not an issue after using the rifle for a while.

The bolt takes a little bit to learn to operate effectively. Draw weight is fine, but you need to make sure you've fully actuated it in order to load the round correctly. Also, the magazine that came with mine required a few times of me taking it in and out of the gun in order to continuously seat correctly, but I think that was just a minor hiccup with mine. Mag now loads fine and bolt operates wonderfully after a few draws.

Buy yourself some .43 bb's, trust me.

"First off, I've encountered the bb problem that others have already addressed, except that I only lose two bbs every time I take out the magazine. There are maybe a dozen in the feeding tube, but only two drop out, which is pretty reasonable considering that my AEG loses four on average in the same situation.
The bipod could be more securely fastened, but it doesn't feel like it's going to fall off or anything. It just slides a few millimeters forward and back when the respective force is applied. However, it's worth noting that the bipod itself (along with the rest of the gun) feels durable, like it can take some punishment, within reason.
I measured about 493 fps on average using .20g bbs, which is excellent. The bolt feels great to operate, though it can be... fickle at times, loading two or three bbs due to needing to pull it back again because the first didn't lock the spring. That said, with just a few minutes of practice shots, I was able to eliminate this problem almost entirely.
Even with .20g bbs, each shot was very consistent when it came to trajectory, with some margin of error that is to be expected with any airsoft gun.

"Best out of box sniper under $500. The sears are 90 degree and come with a hybrid aluminum and polymer piston. The piston has a rubber damper preinstalled and the parts that need to be metal are metal. The spring is an AEG spec spring so adjusting FPS on the fly is easy with the included cylinder head tool. The cylinder is larger in diameter than the VSR 10 so cylinders cannot be swapped. What is VSR compatible is the inner barrel and bucking. To access the METAL hop up chamber is as simple as removing 4 Allen screws. The inner barrel comes preinstalled with barrel spacers. Out of the box this gun can hit a man sized target at 70 meters easily. It can easily hop .46 gram bbs out of the box as well. If you want a straight out of the box sniper that's more affordable than an SSG or Silverback but has comparable effectiveness, this is it. Advantages of this gun also include the fact that it breaks down easily to fit in a day pack. I will be carrying this gun in a rucksack in my next milsim.

Upgradeability - 3/5 already out of the box field ready. 1 point for AEG spring compatibility. 1 point for VSR inner barrel compatibility. 1 point for VSR bucking compatibility. -1 for proprietary cylinder and piston. -1 for proprietary sear set(I doubt these will fail 90 degree)

Accuracy - 4/5 70 meter hits with .46 g BBC's out of box

Reliability - 5/5 All metal construction, seat set is large and chunky with 90 degree engagement, hop unit is metal, flash hider is metal, zero wobble in skeleton stock.

Overall I love this gun.

"Does not hop 43 gram bb don't bother buying them on the other hand loaded with 32s can't be beat for the price

"Straight up lazer beam didn't even have to adjust the hop or or anything to get it to shoot straight and hit my target

The only con I have is what most other say with this rifle is the 5 bbs that get wasted when you load it if it wasn't for this Id give it 5 stars

"I’d like to staT off with the mag. Yes it’s hold around a 100 bbs, but!; the mag feeds into an elbow in the gun which feeds to the HopUp unit this takes up about 7 bbs they you’ll never be able to shoot. On top of that if you pull the speed loadEr out too quick you’ll loose about 20-30 bbs. Which is a lot when it’s all .40+

The spring guide has no bearings and it’s too wide to throw on v2 spring guide bearings and washers.

Case is not good first one I received was broken. It’s pretty brittle, and th foam inside is light and super soft quality, which means it rips easy but it does a horrible job of holding things in place.

It’s a short stoke pull about 3-4 inches so this I consider bad, because even though it’s an aeg springs it’s one one of the longer types 7in / 18mm you need this length for the piston to reach to the end of the cylinder.

However I still think this is a great fun for the price. 295

I just want to warn you of the stuff I disliked as this is a personal review. I am still happy I purchased this rifle.

Everything else you can get on a YouTube review.

Side note the manual does show an mlok free-float rail should be come out soon along with extra mags
