CYMA Platinum 9mm "Rapid Strike" Pistol Caliber Carbine (Color: Black / PDW)

"Love this gun. 11.1 lipo goes brrrtt. And it's always nice to hear someone scream after u hit them. 10/10

"This has been my weekend hun for a couple months now. With an 11.1v Matrix battery it will run for an entire 3 hour game. I’ve had 0 issues with it and it shoots fantastically.

The SMG version is absolutely ideal for indoor/CQB fields and allows me into tight spaces and generally lets me peek angles that a full size/SBR size gun wouldn’t let me into. Not only that, it can fit into a backpack without any takedown, making storage and carrying a breeze.

The gearbox is snappy and responsive, and the trigger feels fantastic out of the box. The micro switch lets me feather the trigger and get good, consistent follow up shots without having to do another long pull.

The externals are extremely high quality, with the upper and lower receiver being full metal. It has survived a couple pretty hefty drops without any issues.

However, if you’re going to play indoors/CQB, you’ll need to swap out the spring. Out of the box it shoots 350-370, which is too hot for most fields. I slapped an M95 Evike spring in and have no issues passing chrono, and other players feel their hits just fine.

As for mags, it comes with 2! One stick mag and one cyma windowed mag. The windowed mags are the play, as you do have a physical loading indicator at the top of the magazine that lets you see when you’re full, and they look much better in the gun.

All in all, stock, this gun is a great value for what you get out of it, and I’m extremely excited to start modifying it. However, with how good the gearbox and motor are, I think I’ll only need to swap the inner barrel and hop-up to have a fantastic weekender gun. Would recommend for anyone looking for a unique, well built and easy to use gun. I get compliments all the time on it, and people are always asking “what is that?”

"Purchased it for use at SF-V at d-14. was surprised by the over performance. I used it stock and it had a really good fire rate and response time on semi- auto. Range wise, it was able to compete with many of the upgraded rifles on the field. I primarily ran .32's through it and used 11.1v lipos. Worked better than I could have imagined. The only thing I had to change was the stock to allow more room for the batteries. All in all 10/10 would highly recommend.

"Great pcc. Mosfet is meh. Dropped a Gate Titan with a asg infinity motor in it. And dropped a lancer tactical rotory hop in it. Runs like a dream now. Best pcc due to the fact it takes mp5 mags not proprietary mags. Highly recommend.

"Overall quite pleased with this purchase, however...a review to cover the good and the not so good. First of all, mine was 'previously owned'. This was evident by the orange tape on the muzzle device, as opposed to the original orange plastic. The muzzle device also bore scratches from attempted removal, and the hex set screw head was stripped on the muzzle device. The original warning stickers and 'made in china' sticker were removed from the gun, and stuck to the foam packaging in the box; the sticker residue was still on the gun. Perhaps this is why the price was lowered on the gun when I bought it? Anyway...It has a reasonable trigger board mosfet that saves space in the buffer tube, where a 1200mah 11.1 Lipo battery fits just fine. Trigger response is not the snappiest, but acceptable. ROF is also fine: not the highest, but I play semi most of the time. Mine shoots 1.45 joules out of the box with .28's. That's a pretty ideal velocity. Externals are solid and good looking. Buffer tube access to the QC spring guide is idiot proof and a great convenience. Accuracy and range were sub par; I had to crank the hop to maximum to lift .28's. I replaced the hop with a Prowin rotary, and installed a Maple Leaf bucking and a slightly longer tight bore barrel. It uses a standard version 2 hop and is accessed/removed in the same manner as any M4 variant, so it's very easy. Range and accuracy are now very impressive. Be advised that the space for rotary hops is limited and the adjustment wheel could not turn on the Prometheus hop I tried first. My only gripe thus far is the mag catch design. Simply put, it sucks. The included Cyma mags work fine, but all the other mags I've tried have a hard time staying in due to an unusual and frankly weak design they came up with for the 9mm meets standard AR type receiver style of the gun. Stick with the Cyma windowed mag and you should be fine. It's a great looking package and I'm looking forward to some field time with it.

"very nice gun, however here are some things everyone should know:
-theres a grub screw on the compensator, which isnt specified in the manual. remove that if you want to remove the compensator

-i dont believe it has the quick change stock??? the stock is held in with a screw and washer like every other gun ive owned.

-most batteries wont fit without the battery compartment extension.

other than all that stuff, the gun is pretty decent. i like that it doesnt use proprietary mags.

Solid aeg.
Crisp trigger.
PDW stock does NOT quick disconnect.
Must use included buffer tube extension to fit ANY battery. Buffer tube length without extension is only 53mm.

I also own the SBR and really like this AEG, but am not a fan of the PDW stock.

SBR gets 4.5 stars. PDW gets 3 because the stock does not quick disconnect and ends up being same length as the SBR stock once buffer tube extension is installed.
