[@facundocorradini]

I think the review is quite fair, but they can become the best airsoft sidearms ever with some work. We've been using these as the official gun for our team, so let me chime in with some experience from 5+ years on a dozen of these guns: - Replace the inner barrel with a RA-tech 6.01 x 84mm, the bucking for a Maple Leaf Autobot, add a spacer below the hop arm (can be a glued-in I-key or DIY), put a shim between the inner and outer barrel from the front (a cutout from the old bucking works great for this) and shim the space between the outer barrel and the base that holds it to the frame with an alluminum cutout from a soda can to prevent any wobble. That's $30-40 in upgrades, but really turn these things around. With it, the power goes to 300-310 FPS with .20, which puts them on par with most airsoft pistols, and they become the most accurate airsoft GBBP ever, as the barrel is fixed instead of tilting and the hop is a TDC design that's not subject to sidespin. Using .28 they are reaching into the 50m mark and are more accurate than most shooters. I have personally won airsoft IPSC matches with this thing, competing against 100 dudes armed with $1000 hi-capa space guns. - Loctite the screws holding the barrel assembly and the fire control group to the frame, before making a single shot. This will prevent lots of issues, primarily the premature wear of the slide lock and the decocker. Talking of which, you should loctite the screw that actuates the decocker too, but use a lower torque threadlock for that. - Replace the buffer with a urethane bumper glued with 415. This helps function and helps with reliability of the slide lock. - Replace the screws that hold the plug to the main body on each of your mags (as they are super soft) and loctite them to prevent them from walking out. Otherwise, you'll be dealing with incredibly frustrating leaks every other game. - As for spare parts, it will be really useful to have a spare or two for magazine catch leaf spring, as bumping on it can break it. This is by leaps the one part that's most prone to breaking, I think 90% of our guns have had that replaced at one point or another, always because of a bump. Other than that, one of the guns required a spare trigger connector bar, another a sear, and we had to replace the nozzle on two of them, which happened to be the ones that we bought in the US and had the "WE USA Upgraded nozzle" out of the box (the blue nozzle). The original black nozzle never seems to give up, but I would still have a spare one just in case, as with any GBB. - They work with real Makarov holsters btw, which is not something that can be said from any other manufacturer. Strongly recommend Stich Profi's Alfa holsters. With a little bit of work and a few bucks these guns change entirely. They become the most accurate and further-reaching airsoft GBBPs ever, work super-reliably, and are a blast to shoot.

[@ExplosiveEnterprises]

Thanks for the feedback! We'll see what we can do to salvage this pistol and the other Makarov in our cohort. To be honest, the accuracy of the gun itself seems fine, it's rather the play between the slide (with fixed sights) and barrel that seems to produce problems with consistent shooting. If you have any ideas there, we're certainly open to suggestions.

@@codemy666 yeah but not nearly to the level of Glocks, Hi-Capas or AAPs. Most of the time there will be one or two aftermarket manufacturers (maybe three), those parts may or may not be in stock on a site with translations to your language, and they absolutely will have massive shipping costs attached to them because thanks to licensing agreements, TM parts can only really be found in the far east.

[@jonmoss5026]

I think it's a fair review, out of the box they need work for sure. I ditched the awful hop and barrel for a Maple Leaf one and a TNT hop rubber and now it's very accurate. Locktite the screws as you say and lube the wear points with your magic ptfe grease / oil blend and it's actually a lovely little gun. The biggest irony I find is as it's a replica of a Russian gun it cannot handle cold temperatures like AT ALL. Below 12⁰C it fires maybe twice with less power than you can fart a BB out then simply vents off. At room temp its a snappy little thing. For all it's flaws I still cant help but love it. A 14mm ccw thread adapter paired with a Nuprol Viper silencer makes a cool assassin piece.

@@ExplosiveEnterprises I highly recommend you guys tackle a Golden Eagle GBBR for that video. They are truly dogshit guns and people new to GBBRs need to understand that. I personally dropped $185 on a Golden Eagle M16 Ris GBBR, and it catastrophically failed literally while chrono graphing during it's first match.

As someone who uses a WE AK PMC regularly, I can say that WE does make really good stuff, but they cut corners in major places and do require RA Tech upgrade parts to function past 2000 rounds. The stock internals of their trigger packs are often zinc, and they simply DO NOT hold up to sustained use. However, upgraded WE's outshoot and outperform TMs and VFCs in almost all areas. The pure potential of their guns is what has made me a loyal customer, even if work needs to go into them in order to realize that potential.

1:24 I hope I don't mix it up with anything but I believe I read once that the more powerful round got cancelled because while they could make the PMM able to handle the more powerful new ammo, there would be no way to prevent people from loading the more powerful ammo into older guns and blowing them up

[@ThatOneFriendlyDude]

As someone who recently purchased an SRC USP Tactical after absorbing as much admittedly-limited info as I could about the things, I understand the "clones are often as good as their designs" thing - it being a direct 1:1 clone of the TM USP design to the point that it allegedly tends to be bought by TM USP owners as parts guns (though in hindsight, I wish I'd considered the reason for this being that there aren't a lot of spare parts available from retailers for it (seems to only be some rather specific parts - trigger assembly, magazine gas valves, that sort of thing), especially replacement feed lips as I now have a gas mag that has broken ones after it made a daring bid for freedom onto a tile floor and being a Canadian means my options are at most extremely limited and sketch and more likely nonexistent - without contacting retailers, anyways), it seems to be leagues ahead of previous clones by the company solely because the design they cloned is a lot sturdier than old-school TM and their in-house designs. Sucks that the WE Mak has its issues out of the box, especially since the KSC one is unobtainium despite the trigger problem IIRC being a one-piece fix that could literally be made with shim stock - would be cool to see someone step up to the plate and make a decent Mak or Tok, but for now they really do seem to just fall into the category of poorly-designed iterations of an otherwise-interesting historical pistol, much like the shown WE BHP or the not-shown WE Luger. Edit five months later: adjusted section about spare parts, and also the idea of VFC eventually releasing a Makarov of their own is extremely promising, so I do hope a review of that comes out to follow this one.

After that i switched to marui and then to VFC glocks. My vfc g45 is going to hit 2 years of service soon and its doing great. Recently i got a gbb G36k from We and its great. Parts are crap still but they are easy to find in my country, cheap and avaible in almost any airsoft shop. Gonna put ra tech npass in, buy some mags and use as a back up.👍

[@elek101]

I used to have a CZ83, but i sold it to my grandpa recently. Honestly a really nice gun, and the grip fit my hand super well. The only thing i disliked about mine was the vague trigger break, basically surprising me with every trigger pull. I wouldve kept it if the trigger had a clear break.

[@yoloman3607]

I have a silver model that I like, its got some metal defects on the slide and the magazines have slowly started to fail over the years but it is a generally nice gun to use and the best of the airsoft makarovs, which is an extremely low bar.

[@yoloman3607]

Having watched the video, mine is in nowhere near as bad shape. Lot less wiggle, the inner barrel extension works and the accuracy is quite good, slide catch is still mostly working. The only thing is it usually only goes to 40 rounds per magazine.

[@BlackeRaven25]

the low power is actually good if you play in Germany. lots of fields only allow 0.5J in buildings. Very good review!

[@JHKartingUK]

as for the grips, i had to learn this the hard way since i have one, they're really fucking stupid, theyre based on the airgun, but are still proprietary, meaning all pmm or baikal grips need some filing/sanding to fit flush, they really couldn't have just used slightly less plastic to accommodate traditional grips. I do really love my makarov, but it is also a piece of shit and there are so many screws i had to thread lock including the one you mentioned, the trigger mechanism screw under the grip, the slide release screw, pretty much every screw eventually comes loose and breaks it, also minor issues as mentioned with accuracy and such, it even started to lock shut because the slide spring was going over and getting stuck behind the hop adjustment, scratching the shit out of the outer barrel and almost breaking it trying to get it off, alas, it is my funny little makarov and i will always love it regardless

[@properrrprop2653]

My friend has one of these. It looks and feels so different in hand than a real PM! Nothing like the original, seriously. Different weight and the springs are all featherweight weak compared to the original. Even for an airsoft gun it feels too much like a toy :D We also had the fire control group try to catapult itself out of it's place so if you ever buy this make sure to tighten that hammer housing screw immediately!

[@aarnojamsa3395]

Putting the inner barrel extension in also means that it will shit itself after shooting 6 bb's. I just run it with the suppressor without the inner barrel extension to better fit a holster.

[@thesonexboy]

coincidentally I just praised my WE makarov for its surviveability. i've used mine for several years as a standard secondary with barely any maintenance, i lost it in a field for a year, found it again. wiped off the dirt and regreased it, ran flawlessly again. only thing i had done to it was reshape the nozzle as it was getting pretty worn.

[@BaliSeoul]

I would like to see a video about the KWA lm4 in this style. It was my first gbbr so seeing an in depth look at it would be cool. Thanks.

[@ssebah]

The problem with the decocker is that the slide screw and the safety selector itself are mare out of a cheap material which in time will "wear out" and when released, the hammer will actually hit the mag valve slightly but enough for it to release the whole gas in the mag. The screw has a tendency to bend and/or snap while the safety selector will break slightly over time. Replaced them 2 times now and there's no real replacement that would hold over time. Overall, I love this little pea shooter.

[@simon_96]

Some We tech guns are earlier design and some are later guns Later guns are better than early ones usually but one should check online to see if something they want to buy have a glaring design flaw or not M9 hipower Luger 1911 etc are earlier guns while the makarov Masada mp5 are later ones

[@Schrodingers_kid]

A few points to add: 7,62x25 was replaced because it was not a good cartrige for police in cities, because it would easily overpenetrate and hit whatever is behind the suspect. Actually, part of the reason USSR police and special forced would take off their soft body armour (it was primitive) is overpenetration - you had better odds of survival if the bullet made a clean hole through you, compared to surviving internal bleeding from blunt force trauma, as it was also more difficult to detect to take care of. Another reason why Soviets didn't go with already existing .380 is they didn't want allies to be able to use their guns if a coup were to happen and they had to go to war with one of their ex allies - they wanted to be able to use their ammunition, but not the other way around, which is why 9x18 is one way compatible with .380 guns And a fun fact I learned from my dad, that he learned while he was in the military: 9x18 has such low penetration power that it will only kick loose thick plastic bottles, without punching holes in them. One day they had ammo they needed to get rid of so they played "football" with a dish soap bottle and a couple of Makarovs

[@tyler1768]

Omg obviously never shoot a Makarov or prob any gun biggest bullshit post ever if a 9mm Makarov has no penetration then reg 380 has none 😂 your soon full of shit

[@Malikyte13]

Two myths in one post, impressive. For anyone considering using 9x18 in a .380 gun, .380 in a 9x18 gun, or any other caliber in any gun not specifically made for it - don't. Use the proper ammunition for the firearm you're using lest you end up on an episode of Brandon Herrera's Darwin Awards videos. And if 9x18 couldn't penetrate a plastic bottle, it wouldn't be able to penetrate a human body. And I assure you, it will absolutely put holes in you.

[@Schrodingers_kid]

@@Malikyte13 Incorrectly correcting other people, huh? I never said you should or that it would be effective to use .380 in 9x18, you're putting words in my mouth. It's fairly common knowledge that 9x18 is bigger so you won't get any kind of seal and accuracy with .380, that's for one. Secondly, it's easier to penetrate a human body that has mass to it and doesn't jump out of the way, isn't it? 9x18 is SLOW, and it needs SPEED to penetrate something that isn't secured. Especially with round bullet that it, conveniently, has. So it kicks the bottle more than it penetrates. Obviously, the bottle would get deformed and compressed over time, making it easier to penetrate. However, all of 120 lbs of your flesh are much heavier than an empty plastic bottle and your flesh doesn't take deformation so kindly.

[@s_vb2220]

idk man, from what i heard 9x18 was developed and adopted to allouw the PM to be as simple as possible, by having it at a low enough pressure they where able to have the PM be a simple blowback with no need for a locking mechanism. the Russians realised that you will be carrying it a lot more than you will be shooting it, so they made it compact simple and light (for the time) at the cost of power.

Super cool design, seals as well as a sieve, but a unique offering many people wanted, they would come up with new GBBRs models few times a year, endless new pistols that beats TM's schedules. Then nothing, for years now we've had nothing from WE. Did VFC steal all their engineers? What happened.

[@ExplosiveEnterprises]

WE actually just revised the P90 (which we'd like to try) and just released a V3 of their AR platform. We've definitely noticed a slowdown in the pace of brand new releases, though.

[@facundocorradini]

looks like they (rightfully) dedicated the last few years to redesigning the lacking features of some of their products rather than developing new ones. They redesigned their 1911, released a complete redesign of their AR platforms, and are now coming out with a revised P90 and SMG-8. Not to mention silent fixes, such as small changes in their G18s that mean they no longer eat nozzles for breakfast, a small change on the tolerance for their SVD magwell which fixes pretty much all of its issues, or the redesigned firing pin and trigger housing for their AKs that prevents two of the most common breakages. It seems someone decided to greatly increase the quality of their lineup rather than coming out with new guns that would die off months after their release. All of this after wasting a couple years making double-barrel everything, of course.

[@jacobagnew8111]

My WE gen 5 G17 has been excellent. The build quality, finish and accuracy are far better than that of your gun. Only negative thing about it is that after about 4000/5000 rounds, the back of the nozzle housing broke.

ive been looking to buy a Makarov/PMM or eastern style gas pistol for a new loadout to replace my glock/AAP01, but i just cant seem to find any good ones

[@TheTeeWorldsfreak]

The obvious answer to the mediocre PM is the Nagant Revolver

[@cypressmarch6632]

Thank you for your reviews! They are always interesting to watch. I have WE PMM and МР659К in my collection. Gotta say WE did a garbage job on copying the pistol (it's rather IJ model than PMM). The steel MР659K just feels ten times nicer. I guess there's no good airsoft Makarov on the market right now?

[@facundocorradini]

you mean the shape? the WE PMM resembles the production version of the real PMM, not the IJ

[@cypressmarch6632]

@@facundocorradini No, EP said it in the video and got it right. WE Makarov is based on MP654K. MP654K is based on non-lethal IJ pistol, and not on PMM or PM, but looks similar. It got PMM frame and PM slide.

They're Pyramex Monitors.

This is off topic but where can i get a vfc gbbr shipped here in the united states with the trademarks? Edit: specifically the mk18 mod 1 v3

[@Womolik]

I have it, my first gbb, range and accuracy is not best let's say, but it's job is to keep me alive ine situations where i have to hit my enemy at 1m maybe 3, for this job it's good enough, funny to watch reviev of the gun i have. I bought it for larping, and adding +10 to charisma during negotiations

[@Mr_LH1980]

But they make a double one!

[@fnord4960]

Double the failure.

[@PotatoGaming3464]

Could you do a review on the emg dd mk18 (gbb)

[@YoChocolate]

I once had this thing in the shopping cart already but decided to do some more research and what I found out made me quite angry: This isnt an actual replica of a Makarov PMM. WE (most likely accidentally) replicated the popular Russian Baikal airgun MP-654K. And they got away with it. Its not much of a difference but I cant unsee it now. Edit: I... should have watched to the end first.

[@easter3000]

I want to point out your pronunciation of Russian words - outstanding. For real.

[@blacktuesday7427]

No tt33?😢

[@okroon256]

Do WE AK while yes its cheap it's only full travel AK on the market as far as I know and has good verity and compatibility with aftermarket parts that can fix it

[@gunsmoke132]

"pot Metal extravaganza" so TM guns?

[@Gassygemareld]

Do you have any experience with the tt33’s?

[@OtakuMeister]

what would you recommend for a good gbb pistol brand?

[@Sakurazaki1023]

Buy Tokyo Marui if you can afford it. If not, go with any of the ASG CZ guns. They're made by KJW and good quality for the price.

[@alexandoro7438]

You're good at speaking Russian! Thank you for the video, it was a pleasure to watch!

[@munk7120]

very cool video, I've had a KWC mak for a while now and i loved it until it shit itself and died.

[@tokiokai4510]

can you do AK mainentance video? pleaaase

[@samuelmarak2327]

in life you rarely get proper closure. and holy shit did i end a chapter on a good note my first gbb was their meu 1911, basically lasted 5000 rounds and took a shit on me, fast forward 2 years later, i was in the market to buy a historic Russian pistol and found like you said, there are no alternatives throughout the picture. I ended up buying a gletcher nagant rifled pellet pistol and I've had nothing by fun with it. If you wanted to give the 1911 fair game you could say i used it in harsh games, but in reality, there were no fields near me in a 100 mile radius and basically bought it to get more familiar with real handguns so i am not totally new to them when i purchase my first. Don't. Gamble. Durability.

[@trtl_playz]

"i came for a gun review not a history lesson" lol side note: should i refer to Explovive Enterprises as "EE" bc my brain tells me so think/say "Ep"

[@hitman.fb_100]

Is that a gen 1 or 2 glock

[@sogerc1]

But even after watching the video you know there's gonna be some people who want a Makarov so much they'll buy it anyway. I might've done something like this in the past. A few times.

[@Armo1997]

If you want some fun, then do one on the god awful WE Luger.

What is the worst pistol you've owned?
