The JG company’s replica is made mostly of plastic, this excludes the RIS rail and the outer barrel which are made of metal. the replica is equipped with a pistol grip which is borrowed from the P90 replica what allows for a stable and certain grip. It is equipped with an adjustable stock and a cheek pad which consists of four overlays. This allows to adapt the replica’s dimensions to the needs of the user. The scope is equipped with a magnification adjustment what allows for a accurate shot. The set also includes a plastic made bipod. It is fixed on the front-grip. Thanks to its dimensions, and predominantly, the long barrel (550mm) the JG1838 replica is a perfect base for power tune up what will make it a para-sniper rifle replica.
The set includes:
- The JG1438 electric rifle replica with integrated bipod, - a low-cap type magazine holding 20 BB pellets, - a 8,4V 1100 mAh battery, - a charger, - a 3-9x40EG scope, - 4 cheek-pad adjustment overlays, - 4 stock adjustment overlays,
Battery included
NiCd
rechargeable battery is characterized by high efficiency
current-carrying capacity, but there are disruptive effect on memory.
Should be unloaded and loaded in the full cycle, ie, it is recommended
to fully discharge, and after unloading must charge the battery
immediately without leaving it for a long time in a discharged state.
NiMH batteries have a higher self-discharge over time and shorten the
life - on the other hand, they earn about 30% more capacity.
Yes
Blow Back
Blow back is a simulation system of the cocking lever - it imitates the
work of it as the equivalent sharp. This system raises the realism and
adds a lot more experience during shooting.

Muzzle velocity [FPS]
It is the spped of bb, while its leaving the innerbarrel of replica. This speed is measured in FPS (Feet Per Second).
1 FPS = 0,3 m/s

Gearbox version
Indications v2, v3, v6 does not mean the level of advance, but only
shape of gearbox skeleton which was used and selected by the
manufacturer
depending on the capabilities of the body of the replica. For example,
a
models of the M4/M16 family, MP5, have a v2 gearbox, while the AK
family have gearbox v3.
Gearbox v3
Hop-Up
Hop-Up system is used for overclocking bb during the shot (putting it in rotation), through which, it extends its flight path. Acting laws of physics make that bb lift up, while the gravitational force take it down. Appropriate adjustment of Hop-Up, will compensate for these two factors, which result in long and straight flight for longer distance and be greater focus shot (to improve accuracy).
Gun is good, but the out of the box the shots tilt towards right side constantly, don't know how to adjust hop ups either; morever the mag will always leave 3 BBs behind in the end and drop as I withdraw mag... this is a huge deal as the original low cap mag only holds 20 BBs per refill, thus without the 3 extra BBs... the amount of time spent reloading makes ruins the practicality a little
*so I asked a question regarding mag purchases and possible mag. extensions, still waiting on an answer. Let's say Mag extension is possible, it'd do the job of a decent mid-ranged assult riffle. (I wouldn't persinally snipe with it before modding the barrel and hop-ups)
the scope is 10/10 for it's price (no complaints)
the battery slot is slightly designed awkwardly, but its possble of installation still with the help of some tapes.
the bipod however is of lower quality, I had to spend another 15 eur to get it filed in a shop for it to smoothly fold back (otherwise it wouldn't).
Fortunately it is not quite necessary in a game.
overall I give it a 3.8 ~ 4.2 stars out of 5
For my one week experience with this gun.
Good replica, excellent scope. Works fine. Be careful if you want to install M4 mag, JG's M4 adapter for g36 doesn't fit, lips are missing to bring BB in hopup. A good choice for player!
This gun is awesome ! Looks great, shoots great, feels great ! Very glad i bought this gun and will buy for sure his "Brother" in the same line of guns. This is my 4th rifle and i am very pleased with it ! Thumbs up !
Great is the word. Very impressive, very good scope. Suggestions : change barrel and hop up joint as soon as possible to gain precision and power. Be very carefull with bipods : need to be filed otherwise you will not be able to fold it. Th inner barrel is not 550mm but mostly 510 mm. All other aspects are normal and works fine.
I just recommend it if you can make some minor modification. This replica is quite rare and you will see surprise in your mates' eyes
