Description
Used by a wide variety of military units across the globe, this is an accurate replica of the ‘Para’ variant of the M249 SAW, identifiable by its compact and retractable Stock. Just like the real thing, this Airsoft replica M249 is a weighty beast! With the Receiver, Outer Barrel, Bipod and Retracting Para Style Stock constructed from Alloy, this rock-solid M249 tops the scales at a hefty 5.7kg. The Para Style Stock is straight forward enough to use and operates by simply turning the locking lever and extending / retracting the stock to the required length. The M249 features a built-in bipod for firing from fixed positions, which folds up into the handguard when not in use. Each leg is height adjustable, and the bipod can rotate through its horizontal and vertical axis.
As befits a squad support weapon, the M249 is supplied with a box magazine that holds a total of 2,400 rounds. The magazine feeds the gun either by Sound Operation (winds the magazine when sound i.e. gearbox sound is heard), or a constant feed, selected by switching the button on the base of the mag. Whichever system you chose, the box magazine and the 2400 rounds will always be at your disposal. Should you (somehow) manage to expend all your ammunition, the M249 can also be fed from standard Airsoft STANAG / M4 AEG magazines, allowing you to stay in the game.
The top cover features a 20mm RIS rail, allowing the installation of any Airsoft optics or sights are you require. However, the M249 does possess built-in ironsights, which are fully adjustable for elevation and windage, and are very user-friendly. The integrated Carry Handle does fold out and function, however given the immense weight of this replica we strongly recommend NOT using the Carry Handle to move the gun, as damage could occur. The flash hider is removable, revealing a 14mm CCW thread, allowing you to install suppressors, tracer units and other muzzle devices to enhance the look or sound of this beast and truly make it your own unique Airsoft gun. The rear of the Receiver has an integrated loop which is designed for a sling, however due to the integrated bipod and vast overall weight, we would recommend that you fire this replica from a prone position and don't attempt to sling it / clear rooms.
During testing, the A&K M249 PARA achieved a stable 300FPS at 800RPM using a 9.6v 1600mAh NiMH Block Battery. Whether you're going for a contemporary and modern-day realistic loadout, or simply want the ability to fill the air with plastic rain at a moment's notice, the M249 PARA is definitely the way to go

Special Instructions:
Please note that the carry handle should be considered for display purposes only. As the M249 is so heavy we cannot reliably guarantee the ability to use the carry handle to move the weapon around safely.
To access the HOP unit, squeeze the two tabs at the rear of the upper receiver, lift the entire tray assembly and adjust near the barrel. To close the upper receiver, pull back the charging handle and allow it to close until it clicks in place. (A light tap on the top may be required once the charging handle has been pulled back and the loading tray able to close properly).
The externals of the replica are metal where they would be on the real world gun. This includes things like the outer barrel, handguard, and receiver. If a real world gun has polymer parts then the gun will still be marked as full metal externals, examples of this would be an M4, where the Stock and Pistol Grip are always made from Polymer.

Joule Charts
Special Instructions
These table can be used as a reference to see if the BB weight you are using will be over acceptable Joulage limits at some Airsoft Sites in the UK. To check if the weight can be used chrono your weapon using the BB you intend to use, and then compare it to the chart.
FPS, Power and Joule Limits can vary from site to site, so please get in touch with where you're going to play with in advance to avoid disappointment.
Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, with a 350fps limit for Automatic Replicas, 400fps for Semi-Automatic Replicas, and 500fps for Bolt Action Replicas.
Tap the tabs below to open the relevant chart for your replica.
This table should be used for reference, and cannot be used to check one weight against another, as the weight of the BB affects the power.
In order to check if the BB can be used with your replica chronograph using the weight you wish to use and then compare it against the table.
Every time you change weights you will need to re-chrono and check against the table. This is not a conversion chart between weights.
Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, and is the equivalent of 350fps, using 0.20g BB resulting in an upper limit of 1.14j.
