Cheek rest was more of a "nice to have" for me. Just seemed intuitive since PTS made it a separate piece. But again, it's not a must. I haven't commented much on the gearbox other than the fact it is rather heavy, the terrible motor and that the selector plate can slip. I'm staying impartial on the internals until I've spent more time skirmishing with it. One thing I did notice was that PTS went with a full length cylinder (type 0) on a 10.5" barrel. Hmmmm... I would've thought a 3/4 (type 1) or 2/3 (type 2) made more sense on a 10.5" barrel length. Interesting to see how people

So here's my list of pros & cons on the PDR so far: Pros: -Neat/innovative/compact design by Magpul (ie "cool" factor) -Ambidextrous mag-release controls -Uses standard Stanaz mags or equivalent -Easily accessible hop up adjustment -Quick-change spring design on gearbox -Spring release mechanism -Gearbox internal parts standard/replaceable. -8mm Bearings on gearbox Cons/Could have done better: -Short pistol grip / limited room for battery -Non-adjustable cheek rest -Long trigger travel -Heavy, proprietary gearbox which makes the entire gun very rear heavy. -Proprietary

Brilliant!

PTS offers a 30 day warranty so we shall see. Insides: Here is the fake charging handle/bolt mechanism. The handles can be removed with the two small switches on each side: Bolt is really not a bolt, but more of a bracket: Hop-up Mechnism: Front trigger/mag-catch mechanism. The trigger/mag-catch are controlled by 2 rods on each side of the PDR. Left side is connected to the selector plate/firing mechanism, right rod controls the mag-catch which is located on the left side of the gear-box but mechanically operated from the right: Mag-catch mechanism (right

Is your friend IBMedic? haha I heard he already broke his PDR within the first few hours. I haven't had a problem with mine just yet although I haven't had time to put mine through any torture test just yet. If mine does have the problem, I'll definately report it. EDIT: PTS POLYMER FAIL!! Turns out one of the retaining tabs that hold the upper and lower receiver together snapped off before I even opened the box. I noticed that there was only 1 retaining tab and thought i had broke it perhaps when opening it (which didn't make any sense to me), but upon closer inexpection, i not

There's nothing wrong with it. I just expected more for the price paid.

Oh the grip is much shorter than a KACSR36 or PDW. Here's a comparison vs the MIAD: Compared to the P90, the P90 has a much larger and steeper grip. I believe the overall size of the PDR is a bit longer. In terms of construction, the PDR uses a much more rigid polymer than the P90 (I'm assuming you're referring to the Tokyo Marui one). The PDR is also a little more rear heavy than the P90.

EBB perhaps? Or perhaps a more realistic bolt that travels full length and mimics the RS bolt a little more? They pull and spring back. Travel is about half the length. On that note, I wish the cheekrest was actually adjustable. Seems they designed it to perhaps have optional cheekrest pieces at different heights they may or may not release in the future. But an adjustable one would've seemed more intuitive (like their ACR stock). A note on ergonomics: I've noticed the pistol grip is very short (even for my small Asian hands) and holding the PDR-C with one hand can get

Most definately NOT. Definately not worth the price either. More pics on my review.

Long awaited???

Upper disassembly, 10.5" barrel tucked away: Proprietary Gearbox: Dial-style hop-up chamber: Short motor and quick-change spring hatch: Will field it tomorrow and then gearbox disassembly.

The long-awaited Magpul PTS PDR-C is finally out. Lucky to be one of the first to pick one up. MSRP is HKD2500 (USD320). Here are my initial impressions. Box set comes with: 1 x PDR-C 1 x PMAG 20 with dust cover 1 x Dummy Round 1 x Instruction Manual 1 x Warranty Card 2 x Packs of Silica Gel (BONUS!) To be honest I was a little disappointed that the package contents. For the price, I would have expected at least a pair of MBUS. Front Flashider comes off and is 14mm CCW (-) Battery goes into the grip will only take the short 4" Lipos (for t

Kojak, is that PEQ15 RS? EDIT: OOPS! Apologies for double posting!

Dude, airsoft is 90% looks. It's how looks on my AR that matter! ha ha ha

Yay! Thanks! I need more pics before I can consider getting it hahaha

Short mag...It's coming...

LOL, can you actually put it on some random rifle and show and tell? Thanks
-
Show and tell please.

@Akiraspeedster: A bit off topic, but how are you liking it? I know it's not that popular of an optic (probably due to it's price point) at the moment.
-
I haven't seen the retailers offer this online. I believe it's only for local sales. It should've said in the description where you ordered from anyways if it comes with 2 mags.
-
Remember to stagger/zigzag your bb's in the mag correctly. I found this reduces the jamming significantly. Also, don't forget to lube up the entire mech. A lot of GBB fails can be attributed for too much friction and not enough lubricant.

I'm pretty sure Li Cheng Technique Business Company (LCT) is NOT VFC. Whether they had any OEM dealings previously is one thing, but they have two very different factories in two very different locations.
