This is the best Airsoft revolver out there, Ares 686 , received it a few days ago and wow, has the weight of a real steel , full trades, the ammo looks real, wood grips, what a lot of gun for the money, just bought the 2” version. love it

Is that a real HKS speedloader? Are the shells compatible? Very cool if so

 

[BIGwat]

what is the performance like?

Who's the OEM? I can't believe Ares has gone against 25 odd years of precedent and made something good.

Keen to know the performance too, like fps out of the box and what weight ammo it can hop. ? Looks lovely!

According to the listing on JD airsoft it comes with a full moon clip so I assume it's that.

An adjustable hop is good too

Also hoping they didn't OEM it or it is guaranteed to fall apart after a few games,

It is a real .357 speed loader, the shells in it are spare ones for the Ares which look like jacketed SP ones.

No the moon clip is a flat metal thing, this is a real speed loader I have from back in the day for my S&W .357

OK, but how does it perform?  Does the adjustable hop actually hop?  Is it consistent?  What are the energy levels like with properly hopped BBs?

Those are rather important criteria when deciding what is the best airsoft revolver.  I would want to use it quite a bit before making that claim.

Tanaka PC 629 with the Pegasus gas system.

Feed it propane and .36's.

Pretty much perfect.

Finally got a Umarex S & W M29 6.5 inch (Dirty Harry’s favourite weapon) shoots good but is CO2 only so limits on use but it is very heavy similar to the real thing so not field practical but it is quiet, only other revolver I have had was the awful TM Python.
