Full description

Description

Part of ASG's SportLine Sl beginner's range, this is both a highly authentic Airsoft replica of the M40A3 rifle and an affordable bolt action Airsoft sniper rifle which boasts great perfomance out of the box. Based on a rugged military design which has seen service with the United States Marine Corps since 2001, the ASG M40A3 is a 1:1 scale spring powered bolt action Airsoft sniper rifle. 

Just like the real M40A3, this quality Airsoft replica from ASG features dual alloy and polymer construction. Accurate to the real design, the Airsoft M40A3 uses a lightweight and durable polymer Stock, which holds the alloy barrel, receiver and bolt. To top it all off, the replica features fully licenced and accurate markings and branding from McMillan, making this Airsoft replica almost indistinguishable from the real thing. 

A 20mm RIS rail located on the upper face of the receiver allows users to attach a wide range of sights and scopes as they wish. The lower face of the handguard features a short section of 20mm rail, providing ample space to install tactical accessories such as a bipod or foregrip. User comfort can be improved thanks to the stock’s adjustable cheek rest and buttstock. The cheek rest can be raised or lowered without tools, to ensure that users are able to get the best possible eye relief when aiming, whilst the stock’s length can be adjusted to ensure that users can comfortably hold and aim the rifle. 

The rifle features an adjustable Hop Unit, which makes a positive click when it is being adjusted, and allows for a wide range of BBs to be used, including heavy weight BBs designed specifically for use in sniper rifles. Straight out of the box the ASG M40A3 is an excellent performer on the Airsoft skirmish field, able to hold its own next to some of the more high end Airsoft sniper rifles. However, for those of you wanting to get the best possible performance, the M40A3 is completely upgradeable, and is fully compatible with ASG SSG aftermarket parts, such as replacing the barrel and spring to greatly enhance the gun’s range and accuracy. 

If you’re looking to get into sniping, either as a new Airsofter or veteran skirmisher, then the ASG M40A3 is a great place to start – for a sniper rifle in this price range, we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the performance. For anyone attempting to create a USMC marksman loadout from 2001-2015, then the ASG M40A3 is both an excellent and accurate choice.
