Earlier this week I uploaded a new video to my Youtube channel. On the video I am talking about my two AEGs that I have, the M653 and the M727. It is not an in depth video about the two different carbines but rather an overview of them. I do point out the most obvious differences between these rifles on the video.
The M653 was an “as is” purchase from a local airsoft retailer here in Finland. I have done some small upgrades to the replica along the way, most notably the hop up. It’s a G&P and from what I have learned from them, the hop up is something that needs to be changed right off the bat to get better results. The replica will shoot, but shot consistency when taking range and accuracy into account will be a lot better when you change the hop up. On the M653 I have a Prowin rotary hopup and a Madbull hop up bucking. These work really well and the replica shoots better than it did out of the box. Some small internal tuning has also been done to it, but nothing ground breaking. Just enough to make it run smooth and be reliable.
The M727 on the other hand is not an “as is” purchase. The receiver is G&P as well as some of the other parts on the replica, but I also used random parts that I had around when building it. There were some G&P made M727 carbines for sale at an airsoft retailer online, but they were all out of stock at the time when I was looking at them. Nevertheless, making something yourself will make you have a deeper bond to it, right? It took me a while to source all the parts for the replica but when I finally finished it, I was using it in almost every game I went to. It has been my main replica for a long time now. There is just something cool about this specific carbine that pleases me aesthetically.
Here is a link to the video on my Youtube channel. I have another video on the pipeline as well and it should be released in the next few days. Stay tuned, like and subscribe!
