G&G Armament TR16 7" GMS MK.II GT Advanced G2 M4/AR-15 AEG

This compact M4-style platform from G&G is one to watch! The TR16 7" GMS MK.II comes from G&G's new line of performance-enhanced AEGs, which feature a plethora of upgrades and reinforcements to ensure that these rifles shoot their absolute best, straight out of the box.

Starting at the front of this stubby beast, we find a uniquely styled flash hider. It is constructed from steel and looks like it is designed for some sort of QD suppressor setup. However, we can say for sure what it, if anything, is compatible with. You will be happy to know that underneath this flash hider, there is 14mm CCW threading for another tracer unit or suppressor. Just remember to undo the grub screw first!

Moving rearwards, we reach the 7" aluminium M-LOK handguard. This boasts M-LOK attachment slots on the 3, 6 and 9 o'clock positions, and short sections of Picatinny rail at the front of each. Up top, there is a 20mm Picatinny rail that runs back to the 20mm railed receiver, creating a long section of attachment space for any manner of optic setup.

Included in the box is a pair of iron sights. These boast G&G's most recent iron sight design, a combination sight which offers a light-enhancing open sight when flipped down or an adjustable aperture sight when flipped up. The front light-enhancing insert is red, and the rear inserts are green, ensuring you never mix up the sight index points when shooting pumped with adrenaline. When raised, the aperture sights can be adjusted for windage and elevation without tools via the drum on the right side of the rear sight and in the centre of the front sight.

The handguard has QD sling sockets on either side, at the front and the rear. These sockets are functional with traditional QD points. This is perfect for setting up a two-point sling to help carry the rifle around the battlefield. Just above the QD points, there are G&G trademarks along with others.

As we come to the receiver of the G&G Armament TR16 7" GMS MK.II GT, you will notice the familiarity of the M4/AR-15 style layout, making it an easy transition in terms of training if you're already accustomed to running an AR platform in-game. The charging handle has an extended design, positioned at the top rear of the receiver, which can be pulled back to lock the mock bolt carrier back. To release the mock bolt carrier, hit the "ping pong paddle" style bolt release on the centre left of the receiver and enjoy the satisfying metal-on-metal clank of it closing!

The fire selector features the standard M4/AR-15 layout, but is ambidextrous, with a 3-position selector switch located on both sides above the pistol grip, offering safe, semi-automatic, and full-automatic modes. The selector has a 90-degree throw between each fire mode, allowing the control to be used swiftly while minimising the chances of accidentally knocking the selector out of place. Being equipped with the GATE ASTER ETU, these fire modes can be programmed with alternatives, from burst mode to binary trigger and more!

The pistol grip has a unique G&G design, boasting a grippy external surface, a low-profile palm rest that reduces wrist fatigue when shooting with modern techniques. With its unique style and pattern, it's perfect for gripping in all weather conditions. Although it is a great design, the grip can be swapped out for any M4/AR-15 AEG pistol grip, an ideal feature for the customisation addicts!

At the rear of the receiver, we're equipped with the standard M4/AR-15 buffer tube, a 6-position example made from alloy, allowing the pre-installed GOS-V16 compact sliding stock to be adjusted to suit any body type or loadout. Just in front of the buffer tube, we're treated to an ambidextrous sling plate made from steel, ideally suited to conventional slings and those equipped with an HK hook. As it is made from steel, this sling point is easily sturdy enough to support the weight of the rifle, even when decked out with accessories.

On each side, the GOS-V16 features steel QD sling sockets, ready for QD sling swivels to be added to mount an ultra-modern, quick-removable sling setup. The butt plate is textured and made from grippy rubber for maximum wet-weather traction. Its short size matches the compact nature of this AEG. For a comfortable cheek weld, there is a detachable extended polymer cheek rest.

The battery compartment is inside the buffer tube and accessible through the rear of the GOS-V15 stock. To access the compartment, push the adjustment lever in more than usual and take the stock off. Inside the buffer tube, you'll find a mini-Tamiya battery connector to which you connect your choice of battery. We recommend an 11.1V 1450mAh Stock Tube Battery for an easy fit and solid performance.

On the inside, the G&G Armament TR16 7" GMS MK.II GT pairs 8mm ball bearing bushings with a 25,000 RPM high-speed motor and a new G&G reinforced gearbox. It keeps the replica performing well and reliably. G&G rifles are well regarded for their solid internal parts, which perform consistently even after many game days.

The highlight of this platform is its GATE ASTER MOSFET/ETU, which provides superior electrical efficiency, protects your battery from reverse polarity and has a whole host of advanced smart functions. They can be unlocked by using the Gate Control Station app, the Gate Blu-link, the Gate USB-link or the Gate Programming card (available separately).

This Airsoft platform is the perfect solution for CQB. Its compact nature with upgraded internal parts makes for an incredibly amazing performance, whilst not sacrificing any of your agility or ability to duck and weave. The G&G Armament TR16 7" GMS MK.II GT Advanced G2 M4/AR-15 AEG with its GATE ASTER ETU should be at the top of your shopping list!
