  • Adjustable Stock
  • Removable Carry Handle
  • Part of the SA Core Range

The SA-C02 is based on the CQB variant of the M4A1 used by the US Army and Marines. This CQB length rifle is a high quality replica built by Specna Arms as part of their CORE beginner rifles range, boasting pre-upgraded internals at a world beating price. If you are looking for a low cost AEG with low weight and a 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel for some impressive accuracy potential, this one would be a fine choice! 

Full description

Description

This rifle is part of the CORE range, targeted at beginner Airsoft players who are new to the sport, being a cheaper alternative to the full metal guns these replicas are made from high quality polymers to reduce the overall cost of the AEG without the loss of quality. The SA-C02 features a full polymer external design, except for the outer barrel and internals where strength is required. This gives this CQB optimised M4 a light feel, allowing for quick manoeuvring in CQB situations. We recommend a 7.4v Lipo stick or crane stock Tamiya battery for this rifle.

The SA-C02 features a removable top carry handle iron sight which when removed reveals a top 20mm RIS / RAS rail, 20mm being the most common type of Airsoft rail on the market today, giving you plenty of options for aftermarket parts from a wide range of brands. The top rail of the SA-C02 is designed for attaching sights and scopes, as well as red dot and holographic optics. 

The rifle features an Adjustable Stock, which can be adjusted up to six positions for different sized users and features a rubber butt plate to prevent slippage whilst shouldering the rifle. The Stock also doubles up as a battery storage compartment, allowing for larger 9.6v Ni-Mh to fit in, as well as the smaller 7.4v LiPo, giving plenty of opportunity to use the same battery between multiple AEGs.

The front of the SA-C02 has a barrel with a removable flash hider which when removed reveals a 14mm Counter Clockwise thread which can be used to attach a wide array of silencers, suppressors or even more advanced tracer units. The hand guard is also removable, which is done by  pulling back on the D-Ring and sliding the parts out of the way. This allows for aftermarket hand-guards to be attached, or for the tech enthusiast the entire handguard / d-ring and front post can be removed to attach a free float hand guard.

Internally the SA-C02 features a fully adjustable Hop Up unit, designed to add range and accuracy by adding stability to the shots, and can be adjusted to support a wide range of BB weights. The hop-up is also adjusted by a radial adjuster rather than the standard gear system seen in older AEG allowing for higher accuracy of movement when setting the hop-up. The SA-C02's gearbox also features 8mm slide bearings and steel gears to enhance the lifespan of the gun, and features Specna Arm's EAS Quick Spring Change System, allowing you to easily and quickly remove the spring and replace it with a stronger or weaker one depending on the FPS limits of your local game site.

This rifle is perfect for those Airsoft Skirmishers who are getting into playing, for those who are looking to get a great beginner rifle, or for those who are looking for a great low cost rifle as a base for modifications.

FPS, Power and Joule Limits can vary from site to site, so please get in touch with where you're going to play with in advance to avoid disappointment.

Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, with a 350fps limit for Automatic Replicas, 400fps for Semi-Automatic Replicas, and 500fps for Bolt Action Replicas.

Tap the tabs below to open the relevant chart for your replica.
