    Description

    The Edge series are a new line of replicas from Specna Arms which combine their usual hardy build-quality on the externals with uprated internals, and a Gate MOSFET as standard to squeeze every drop of performance out of these rifles. The metal parts of the rifle are finished to an amazing standard, and have lovely engraved trademarks. The MOSFET is an X-ASR module from Gate which serves to protect your circuits and batteries, and allows basic troubleshooting on the board thanks to status indicator LEDs. The Edge series also feature an ESA™ quick change spring system which dramatically reduces the amount of time to change the output power of your rifle, allowing you to change the main spring via the Buffer Tube.

    The externals are made from a mix of Aluminium and Zinc Alloy which undergo a rigorous course of Sand Blasting, Powder Coating and then Anodising to achieve a world-class finish on their metal-work. This finish is then protected by a 'Nano Coating' finish that reduces scratches. The external trim parts of the rifle such as structural screws and supports are made from Steel to ensure a long-life performance. The Polymers used throughout are an exceptional quality and feel really good in the hands, the Pistol Grip being textured to promote grip in all conditions. The pistol grip has a neat design which allows you quick access to the motor without the need for tools. The 'ventilated' design adds an extra modern touch to the Rifle, and exposes the gorgeous blue-coloured metalwork underneath.

    At the muzzle end of the replica, the included amplifier can be screwed off to reveal a 14mm CCW thread underneath. This lets you attach other Suppressors, Tracer Units, Muzzle Brakes or any compatible muzzle device to further enhance the looks or performance of your AEG. Just ensure that they will fit inside the Handguard as the thread is recessed.

    The top of the rifle features a full-length 20mm rail which is ready to take any RIS compatible sights or scopes. The handguard is a KeyMod design that saves on weight by having reductive rail slots, instead of additive (the rails slots are cut away rather than extra material being added). The Handguard comes supplied with 20mm RIS Adapters, so that you can attach RIS accessories if this is all you already have. The six position Adjustable Stock at the rear is where the battery is housed, and connects to a Deans connector (Mini Tamiya adaptor included), and you will also notice an Ambidextrous Sling Plate for left and right handed sling users.

    The quality continues internally with a wealth of parts which would be considered an 'upgrade' on any other AEG. A rotary Hop Unit gives you fine and precise control over flight path, and being coupled with a precision 6.03mm barrel makes for a very pleasant firing experience. The 'ORION Gearbox' featured inside has a reinforced frame to handle high power springs and is designed around their quick change spring system. Other perks of the ORION Gearbox are: Reinforced Polymer Piston with Steel rack, Aluminium sealed Nozzle, Aluminium double sealed Cylinder Head, Aluminium double sealed Piston Head w/ bearings, Steel Gears and 8mm Bearings. All of this comes together to seal the perfect package for those who want the best of external and internal quality.

    Included in the box are two Mid Cap 125rnd Magazines of a modern P-Mag design, which have tiny Specna Arms logos used as a stippling pattern that look absolutely fantastic! Whether you're brand new to Airsoft or you have been playing for years, Specna Arms offer something for everyone, and with all the features you could ever need, as well as rock-solid construction and a head-turning design, the SA-E40 EDGE™ should tick all your boxes.

    Special Instructions

    The externals of the replica are metal where they would be on the real world gun. This includes things like the outer barrel, handguard, and receiver. If a real world gun has polymer parts then the gun will still be marked as full metal externals, examples of this would be an M4, where the Stock and Pistol grip are always made from Polymer.

    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.

    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.
