ARCTURUS AK74U Custom AEG electric gun is an extremely compact and modern AK series airsoft rifle. The gun features a short barrel, an eye catching muzzle brake, and a compact folding stock. The front end includes an aluminum M-LOK and RIS compatible handguard. The top and side surfaces of the handguard feature standard picatinny/RIS rails for attaching sights or grips. On the left side of the receiver, you will find an AK style side mount for Russian type optics or accessory rails. The stock can be folded for easier transport or for use in very confined spaces.
The internal mechanism is equipped with a durable version 3 compatible gearbox featuring a quick spring change system. This allows spring swaps without fully disassembling the gearbox. The gun uses a T plug (Deans) connector as standard.
The battery compartment is located under the dust cover and fits AK style stick batteries or, for example, a Titan Power 7.4V stick battery.
External parts
Most external components on Arcturus AK series rifles are made of metal. Notably, Arcturus manufactures its airsoft guns using techniques similar to their real firearm counterparts. For example, the receiver, dust cover, safety selector, magazine release latch, and trigger guard are made from cold stamped steel sheet, just like on the real weapon. The flash hider, outer barrel, and other small components are also metal.
All these metal parts are protected against corrosion using an industrial coating process. However, drying and oiling the steel parts when necessary is recommended to maintain their condition.
