Specna Arms SA-F14 FLEX™ M4/AR-15 AEG; X-ASR MOSFET

If you need a modern M4 platform, ready for any situation, then the Specna Arms SA-F14 FLEX™ M4/AR-15 AEG; X-ASR MOSFETis one to keep an eye on. Constructed to Specna's FLEX™ standard, the SA-F14 boasts a lightweight but durable high-density polymer receiver, handguard, buffer tube, stock and pistol grip, giving you optimal ease of use.

Starting at the front, we find an M4-style Bird Cage flash hider attached to the outer barrel, which sticks out from the front of the CNC aluminium quad-railed handguard. This gives the SA-F14 a classic military look and replicates the real steel platform perfectly. The outer barrel features the common 14mm CCW male threading, ideal for swapping to a sneaky suppressor or tracer unit.

Moving rearwards, you will find the M-LOK handguard, which is made from a durable and lightweight high-density polymer. The handguard is also equipped with attractive angular vent ports to give the replica a cutting-edge look. The M-LOK slots are present at the 3, 6 & 9 o'clock positions with a 20mm Picatinny rail up top.

Up top, this rifle is equipped with flip-up aperture iron sights. The benefit of a modern M-LOK handguard is that, in its slick configuration, the handguard is lightweight and surprisingly ergonomic, meaning you don't need to add rail covers to avoid the discomfort as you might with a 20mm quad rail.

Next up, we reach the receiver, which is instantly recognisable as the common M4/AR-15 configuration, with its controls laid out in a considerate and ergonomic manner, allowing the SA-F14 to be manipulated quickly and instinctively by veterans or learned rapidly by new users.

The fire selector lever is situated just above the pistol grip, on the left side of the AEG, providing 3 modes of fire: SAFE, SEMI, and AUTO, with a 90-degree throw between each. The fire modes are helpfully marked in bold recessed text on the receiver, and the selector switch locks positively into each mode with the help of texture on its surface. The magazine release is on the right side of the magazine well.

Pulling back the extended charging handle, at the top rear of the receiver, will open the dust cover and retract the mock bolt carrier, which allows access to the rotary HOP-up adjuster. This HOP-up design provides fine increments of adjustment and holds its setting effectively. The charging handle has an extended latch for easier access, allowing even gloved users to access the HOP-up unit, though you may need to remove your glove to adjust the unit!

The pistol grip of the SA-F14 is an M16A2/M4A1 style pistol grip, also known as the "A2" finger ridged grip. The A2 has diamond checkering on either side and linear texture on the back strap to provide excellent gripping qualities. The finger ridge helps you keep hold of the rifle and prevent the grip from slipping out of your hands when held in a single hand. As with most M4/AR-15 AEGs, this grip is compatible with aftermarket M4/AR-15 AEG grips, ideal for customisation addicts!

The battery compartment is inside the crane stock, accessible by squeezing the two tabs at the toe of the stock together, after which you can lift the butt plate off, remove the battery plug and make use of the stock's built-in battery compartment to house a chunky nunchuck/crane-style battery. For the SA-F14, we recommend a 7.4V 1300mAh LiPo crane/nunchuck battery for an easy fit and great performance.

The Crane stock also includes a pair of QD sling sockets, one on each side, allowing for QD sling swivels to be added for a quick, removable sling setup. Conventional sling slots (aka "footman loops") are also present for those who want a two-point sling but prefer the old-fashioned way. The butt plate is also made from grippy rubber, ensuring your SA-F14 doesn't slip off your shoulder at a critical moment.

Inside the Gen.2 SA-F14, we are treated to the Aether-enhanced gearbox shell, the same reinforced V2 shell used in Specna's top-tier PRIME series. The Aether features a reinforced spine and ports throughout the design to allow for easy tuning, ideal for the techy types. Also inside are 18:1 ratio steel gears running on 8mm bushings. The spring guide is an ESA quick-change example, making power tuning a breeze for those who want to get as close to site limits as possible.

The inner barrel is a 6.03mm tightbore paired with the Magnus TDC rotary HOP-up unit, giving you superb accuracy potential and the most up-to-date HOP-up unit style for M4/AR-15 AEGs. All internal parts are Tokyo Marui AEG spec, meaning aftermarket upgrades are a go for the performance seekers!

This revamped SA-F14 is also equipped with the Gate X-ASR MOSFET, a "Smart Fuse" type device designed to provide diagnostics and warn the user of certain errors. The X-ASR also enhances electrical efficiency and is pre-wired to a Deans battery connector, offering lower resistance than the mini-Tamiya connector, which results in a snappier trigger feel and a slight boost in rate of fire.

This lightweight platform is the perfect introduction to Airsoft for any new player who wants a multi-role rifle that is lightweight and extremely beginner-friendly. Plus, the added protection of the X-ASR means you can rest easy knowing that your internals are safe at all times.
