mightyjebus Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Ok, well we will start with pictures as everyone loves pictures. The Kart M668 EBR is a copy of the real steel M14 Enhanced battle rifle(EBR). It is nearly all metal, the only parts that are plastic are the foregrip, pistol grip, cheek piece and a rubber butt cap. Now before I continue heed this warning *it's not light!!!!!* I can't stress this enough. The EBR is a very heavy AEG. It is really suited to the role of either suppressing fire or as a sniper rifle. trust me you do not want to be skirmishing with this all day unless you have arms like arnie. The reason for the weight is because it is nearly completely full metal. Kart have done an excellent job with this AEG. The craftmanship coming out of china right now is fantastic. Gone are the days of cheap plastic AEG's from china with the Kalash and now the EBR things are looking up for us airsofters. Ok time for some more pictures. the following are a selection of up close pictures of the EBR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mightyjebus Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Ok well I decided to field strip the EBR and have a bit of a poke around. The following pictures show the EBR in bits. the top rail which is a really good cast bit of metal. the front side rail which again is well cast. the pistol grip the front assembly the gearbox the gearbox uses nylon bushings. to adjust the height of the stock you move this lever I chrono'd the Kart EBR at 330FPS and the rate of fire is not massive however I think it can be improved by changing the wiring and probably the motor as well. I tried TM locaps and Hicaps and they both worked very well in the Kart. I tried a couple of king arms hicaps as well but these didn't feed so well however these had been modded so mosy likely brand new king arms hicaps would work fine.

mightyjebus Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 the battery fits in the front foregrip. the hop is adjusted like all the other M14's on the market right now. the kart comes with a little rail for adding a scope. The only thing that i can find wrong with the EBR is that there is a gap between the lower reciever and the upper reciever. it's not really a problem but looks a bit unsitely. Ok well thats pretty much the facts about the Kart EBR now it's time to give you all my opinion. This AEg is a fantastic AEG. I can't believe you get so much AEG for so little money. Ok it's heavy but that shouldn't distract from the fact that Kart have pulled a rabbit out the bag eith this one. to be honest I wasn't expecting much from this but WOW! what a great AEG. I will leave you all with a couple of more pictures. enjoy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
otherrandomhero Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 How would you rate the ergonomics on it? The other review said it's really awkward, would you say the same? Also, how are the accuracy and range on it? Thanks! Oh, and good review too. Everyone loves pics ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mightyjebus Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 it is front heavy which is no surprise as its all metal aith nothing to balance it at the back. i bipod is a must. Accuracy and range is on par with my AGM M14 and my TM M14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
otherrandomhero Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Ergonomics=how comfortable it is to hold and use. Accuracy and range are on par with a TM M14? Seriously? So far nothing but the G&G M14 can match a TM M14 out of the box, or at least that I've seen. Hm, maybe I oughta get one of these. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TDS Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 hows the grip detach from the frame? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stealthbomber Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 hows the grip detach from the frame? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The foregrip or the pistol grip? The foregrip is held on by 3 allen screws. The pistol grip is held on by a single big allen bolt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tomster Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Nice one! Did you solve the hop up problem? Is it just the screw/pin that is too short? And did you encounter any problems putting it back together. Darklite from Hong Kong reported some guys broke their chassis when they tried putting it together again. :?

hitmanNo2 Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Jebus, could you give me the details of that huge scope you have on the first EBR? Also, what make the bi-pod is? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I felt like I had done 12 rounds with tyson once i got it back together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Renalan Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 This sounds nice, but do you have a scale to weigh the gun? Also, by front heavy, how front heavy do you mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wally squad Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Friend with a full metal m4+grenade launcher on front moaned it was heavy-think it weighs about 10-11lbs, and yes it is front heavy but at least having an adjustable *albatross* end means you can get it balanced ish... Probably not for the chicken armed out there... cheers d Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blink43va Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Trust me, that dissasembly is ALOT less steps than the regular TM... Wow that was a beezy... I kind of wish I would have not sold my SOC 16 after seeing this... but I dunno it was a bit uncomfortable... I may have to get one of these though... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jimisin73 Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 I weighed mine last night, fully loaded with a custom split large 9.6 V battery, a full highcap of .2s and my Eotech 552: 13.5 lbs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How does the flashhider get removed? Is it 14mm CCW or CW? I'd heard it has a set screw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AZN KID Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) I was about to get one from allizard on traders and when i stated i was thirteen he said this gun is really heavy i don't think this is the one for you. So i just baught a G&G full metal M4 and i am so happy i did cause i was at a skirmish recently and my freind just got this and a 20 mins into the game he started complaining about how heavy it was and asked if i wanted to switch with him for a little bit ie. 2hrs and oh dear god after that when he gave me my M4 back it felt like a plastic bodied M4 man that was one *beep* of a work out.
