I just placed an order on EVIKE for this Airsoft RPG by Matrix...
So far other life sized RPG were either too expensive, didn't work at all or looked inacurate....they were going for over $750.oo or $400.oo and just didn't seem worth the reason to splurge.
The EVIKE Matrix RPG is about $250.00 or less depending on if you look for sales.
This item is full metal and actually does have airsoft operational parts so its not some dumb prop!
Comes with a single airsoft grenade round...you must assemble this kit, about 10 minutes and no instruction manual!
Fairly easy to assemble.
The Airsoft RPG is said to be simple and light with virtually no breakable moving parts...just load it and pull the trigger.
This is more like a sexy shot gun and will fire a blast spray area...you will need to buy more grenade rounds and for this, take care not to buy the ones that will not fit inside this item....in fact, you will need to possiblly grind down any metal on the shells so that they will be compatable to fit inside the barrel of the RPG...there are issues here, but all could be resolved thru customization of the rounds.
The missle is some piece of plastic that looks good but only flys about 10 feet...just use it for display and not play!....you will need to build and test your own custom football missles.
I would very much like it if anyone who buys this, post their own test results here.
Another idea is that the plastic missle unit hides an extended barrel tube that will fire a more accurate moving airsoft missle or bb spray given that the RPG barrel is very ,very short.
that way you could always walk around ready to fire it with the asthetic warhead still on!
The Rocket launcher tube in the rear is basically just a hollow useless area...there is actually room here for potential custom gear...maybe firing off baby powder or an electronic blastoff sound effect.
This item is a great addition to airsoft warefare now that the price has finally gotten down to earth...I highly recommend you also buy a gun bag to carry it in -less the general public may become highly alarmed if you are seen walking around town with it!
