Bolster Tuned Airsoft Platforms

The sneaky counterpart to the Bolster Tuned CM.041 upgraded SMG-5 AEGs has returned and it's better than ever! Enter the CM.041 SD5 SMG-5 Upgraded Edition; a full metal SMG-5 SD5 replica built by the same team behind the ultra-high-end Bolster Armouries AEG series and previous Bolster Tuned AEGs.

As with its less discrete brethren, the first thing the Bolster Armouries team do with the CM.041 SD is to tear it to pieces and build it back up to fulfil its true potential. This new generation of Tuned SMG-5 is rocking a Warhead 27K Brushless Motor, Bolster Armouries EZO bearings, and a Bolster Armouries AOE Correction Washer along with complimentary parts to keep it running reliably long term. Replacing the basic CYMA ETU, we have the space-aged Gate ASTER™ ETU, offering a wealth of programming options and equipped with the latest EXPERT Firmware.

The HOP-up has been modified with Bolster Armouries HOP-up screws for better air seal and setting retention and a 4UANTUM Friction Pro High-Performance Hop Up Bucking was added to extend the range out to 60 meters and beyond. An FPS Softair Carbon Fibre Reinforced Tappet Plate ensures reliable feeding with the powerful Warhead brushless motor and an SHS Hardened Steel D Type Pinion Gear was added to cope with the higher levels of torque and speed. Unlike other custom Airsoft gun services, Bolster Tuned platforms are all pre-built and ready to ship the next day with no lead time!

A lot of work was put in to refine the mass-produced CYMA gearbox and make it run like a Bolster. The inner surfaces of the gearbox have been polished for reduced friction and modified to house the ASTER™ ETU. The cylinder windows have been radiused to increase the strength of the shell to withstand the force of repeated piston impacts, and the bearing holes in the gearbox shell have been smoothed out. The angle of engagement has also been corrected, meaning 11.1V LiPo's are a go for the Bolster Tuned CM.041 SD5 so you can hose the enemy down with a torrent of BBs like a fireman hoses a blaze.

With upgrades added and work done, the price has increased, but by a far smaller margin than it would if you took a stock CM.041 SD to a technician and paid for this amount of work to be done. Finally, we can pick up and play with an exceptionally well-built AEG with all the fine-tuning necessary for exceptional performance already complete, and done with care, to an exacting standard.

When we tested the Warhead Edition we were absolutely stunned; it's even faster than the original Tuned CM.041 SD! 320 FPS on the dot with remarkable consistency, 60m+ effective range and an absolutely scary rate of fire of 27 rounds per second; more than enough to outshoot anything else you can buy off the shelf!

If you always wanted an MPX but you want it to shoot as good as it looks, this is the one to go for! The Bolster Tuned Sig Sauer MPX Upgraded AEG is based on the SigAir MPX but has all the creases ironed out, and is thoroughly upgraded on the inside with some of the best parts in the business.

Inside, you will find the phenomenal Gate TITAN MOSFET making its first appearance in a Bolster Tuned build, providing exceptional trigger response and rate of fire while adding a plethora of customisation options and eliminating the potential of trigger contact corrosion. The TITAN is paired with a Warhead 27K Base Brushless motor for guilt-free full auto mayhem thanks to its low heat build-up and exceptional reliability.

To make the most of the TITAN and Warhead combo, the team added Laylax EG 13:1 High-speed gears, further increasing rate of fire into the realms of the incredible. Laylax gears have a superb reputation amongst techs and were an essential replacement for the stock SigAir gearset. The Laylax Prometheus Purple HOP-up Rubber and Nub makes an appearance, as we might expect, and the usual Bolster Tuned internal polish and expert shimming process has also been carried out, with phenomenal results.

There is more going on with the Bolster Tuned MPX than we can list here (see the Full Description for more details), but check out our YouTube review to see this thing doing its good work. If you've been held back from buying an MPX because you have high standards when it comes to performance, this is the MPX for you!

If you have plans to upgrade an SMG-5 to shoot like a laser beam, with the rate of fire of a minigun, why bother doing all the legwork and fine-tuning yourself? The Bolster Tuned CM.041 SMG-5 Upgraded AEG; Warhead Edition is the latest generation of the well-received Bolster Tuned CM.041 series, put together by the same team that built the ultra-high-end Bolster Armouries ONYX AEG series and benefits from all the experience and expertise gained from a lifetime of Airsoft tech work and several successful Bolster Tuned AEG drops.
