Those looking for a lightweight backup weapon with fully fledged special forces style looks you can't do much better than the ST46 from S&T. This AEG is designed to look similar to a popular real world platform we all know and love, and that is widely issued to special forces of almost every nation in some form.

High density polymer may be less realistic, but it will not show damage as readily as a full metal gun might thanks to its dyed nature allowing it to maintain its looks far better than a painted or anodised finish.

On the inside the ST46 has an alloy version 2 gearbox with a modern Rotary HOP-up unit, setting it up to be competitive and upgrade-compatible without overcomplicating things by reinventing the wheel. If you need a lightweight solution, either as a primary or a backup, the ST46 is the perfect thing!
