Description
The Evolution Airsoft Recon S Carbontech is largely built from Evolution's own Polymer-Compound; Carbontech™. This gives the Gun a lightweight overall build that makes it perfect for getting stuck into the action, but means it is also tough enough to survive plenty of knocks. The Outer Barrel Assembly, Buffer Tube and Trim aspects of the Rifle have been made using Alloy to provide a strong core, and to give the Rifle as much structural strength as possible.
Externally, the Rifle features all the bells and whistles you would expect of a top-end Airsoft Gun, such as a 14mm CCW Threaded Barrel for the installation of Suppressors, Tracer Units and other Muzzle Devices. A 'Superlite Carbontech™ KeyMod Rail System' provides plenty of space for KeyMod accessories (Torches, Lasers etc.), but comes included with several 20mm RIS/RAS Adapter pieces, allowing you to use RIS accessories out of the box. The 20mm Rail continues on top of the Handguard to the rear of the Receiver, allowing the installation of Sights and Scopes straight away.
The rear of the Gun has a Six Position Sliding Crane Stock, which can be set to multiple lengths to suit different users. An Ambidextrous Sling Plate can be found on the Buffer Tube, allowing you to connect a Sling from either side of the Gun, making this a strong choice for both Left and Right Handed Players. There is also a QD Sling Socket on the Stock, which can accept a Quick Release Sling Loop.
The battery is housed in the buffer tube on this rifle, with a Mini Tamiya Connector inside, and as such would need a short 7.4v LiPo stick battery, and we recommend a 7.4V 1300mAh LiPo in stick configuration. The AEG uses a standard M4 style buffer tube so you could replace the stock with an aftermarket standard crane stock if you wanted to use a bigger capacity battery.
Internally is where this Rifle really starts to shine, and has a tonne of components and features that you would never normally see on a Rifle that costs less than £130. Starting off the list is a 6.01mm Inner Barrel that provides great consistency from your BBs, a set of Reinforced Steel Gears to ensure long-life performance, 8mm Steel Bushing, Steel Teeth Piston, Rotary HOP Unit and Sector Gear Delayer, all encased in a Reinforced Gearbox Shell.
Other features include a tool-less, quick-access Pistol Grip and a Quick Removable Spring Guide, allowing easy access to the Main Spring of the Gun, without disassembling the Gearbox. To access the HOP Unit, simply pull back on the Charging Handle and make adjustments to the Rotary Dial behind the Dust Cover. A Unique Serial Number can be found on the side of the Receiver to identify your Rifle should you ever need to prove that it's yours. As a final note, the Gearbox has an Integrated Slot for the installation of a MOSFET and/or Electronic Trigger Unit, should you wish to take your Airsoft Electric Gun to the next level.
Included in the box is a 300rnd High Capacity Magazine, which is filled by pouring BBs into the top Fill Window, and winding the Clockwork Wheel on the base of the Magazine to feed BBs into the Gun. No matter whether you're an absolute beginner or a well-travelled Airsofter, you can't go wrong with the incredible value for money offered by the Evolution Airsoft Recon S Carbontech.

Joule Charts
Special Instructions
These table can be used as a reference to see if the BB weight you are using will be over acceptable Joulage limits at some Airsoft Sites in the UK. To check if the weight can be used chrono your weapon using the BB you intend to use, and then compare it to the chart.
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.
This table should be used for reference, and cannot be used to check one weight against another, as the weight of the BB affects the power.
In order to check if the BB can be used with your replica chronograph using the weight you wish to use and then compare it against the table.
Every time you change weights you will need to re-chrono and check against the table. This is not a conversion chart between weights.
Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, and is the equivalent of 350fps, using 0.20g BB resulting in an upper limit of 1.14j.
