Not content with providing the fantastic external quality CYMA's CM.04X AK series is known for, the internals of this AK replica have been upgraded with a wide range of enhancements, including a silent piston head and cylinder head, high torque motor, 7mm ball bearing bushings and an alloy adjustable HOP-up unit paired with a 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel to top it all off. If you want a unique looking AK replica with loads of steel parts, wood furniture and the performance to stay ahead in game, the CYMA CM.048SU AEG is the perfect choice!
