Type: Paintball air rifle.

Manufacturer: Tacamo (unbranded).

Model: T86 AK47.

Materials: Metal & wood build.

Weight: 8 pounds.

Barrel: 14 inches, non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 or compressed air.

Action: Semi auto blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: Paintball marker .68 caliber.

Ammunition Capacity: Dependent on hopper system used.

FPS: 350

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Tacamo T68 AK-47 is what you would expect from a blowback operated single action gun, easy and light with just a bit of creep to it. The action of the bolt gives the gun a nice little snap to it and with the extra CO2 needed to push out the large .68 caliber paintball markers you also get a little bit of recoil adding to the shooting enjoyment.

Accuracy: I'm not going to spend a lot of time talking about accuracy with the Tacamo T68 Paintball gun as I don't really have any other references to base it on but I can say I was pretty impressed with how well it stayed on target considering most paintball ammo is not really uniform in shape which effects accuracy a lot. I was also expecting lower FPS performance closer to the 250-300 FPS range but I got nice consistent 350 FPS shots with the Tacamo T68 AK47.

Build Quality: Very nice, the  Tacamo T68 AK-47 is made of mostly metal and wood with many actual parts from a real AK 47 including the wood handle and stock, rear sight, safety, magazine and authentic strap. The Tacamo Paintball rifle has some weight to it also making the AK 47 replica feel solid and durable.

Realism: Again the Tacamo AK 47 replica is made of lots of real AK47 parts making this gun very realistic, you can't really get around the telltale Paintball marker top loading tube and CO2 hookups but other then that the Tacamo AK47 really looks like a an actual AK47, so if you want to play the bad guy you can definitely pull it off with this replica paintball rifle.

Pros:

• Very believable AK 47 replica.
• Lots of real AK-47 parts
• Mostly metal and wood design.
• Magazine can be used for storage of tools or extra paintballs
• Adjustable sights
• 3 models to choose from with different styled stocks.
• Comes with genuine strap.
• Fun to play the bad guy with this villainous rifle.

Cons:

• Semi auto only, no full auto - would have been nice!
• May be a bit large and heavy compared to other more compact Paintball guns.
• A few paintballs broke in my barrel when shooting, FPS pressure may have been set too high?

Comments:

I really like my Tacamo T68 AK47 Paintball rifle, again I have virtually no experience with Paintball guns so my reasons for liking it are mostly based on the all metal and wood build and real AK 47 look of the Tacamo T68 AK47. That said I thought it performed pretty good overall getting decent accuracy and shooting well into the 300+ FPS. I may pull this one out once in a while even to shot some various targets just because it does have a more realistic recoil feel when shooting then my smaller caliber pellet and BB airguns.

You just have to have the classic AK47 and this one even has the wood foreword stock. I will be reviewing the Under Folding Stock version of this very realistic looking AK47 Paintable Assault rifle.

The Tacamo T68 AK47 Series of Paintball guns are based on the most widely used assault rifle in the world - the AK-47! Tacamo has taken the AK47's classic lines and melded them with the powerhouse T68 internals to create this powerful marker for scenario paintball and military training. The Tacamo marker is designed as the "opposing force” weapon to enhance military combat training, or for when you just want to play a bad guy for the weekend.

The Tacamo T68 Series Paintball Guns are manufactured at a registered weapons factory in the PRC using actual production parts from AK47's where possible!

I'm trying something new here by adding a few Paintball guns to the store and I do plan on reviewing one of the Tacamo Paintball guns, this will be a new experience for me for sure!

The Tacamo AK RPK Special Products Division-RPK is a real show stopper. The stock and fore-grip are real laminated wood, it comes with a real AK bi-pod, real AK rear sights, and a specially bored 20 inch barrel. The Tacamo AK RPK Special Products Division-RPK also comes with a 75 round drum magazine for that added realistic look.

Type: BB Machine gun.

Manufacturer:Baikal.

Model:IZH MP-661K.

Materials: Metal & Polymer.

Weight: 3.5 pounds.

Barrel: 8 inches, metal-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 or (Bulk air with adaptor).

Action: Electronic trigger with 1-3-6 round burst & 300-340-600 Rounds Per Minute.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 30 rounds.

FPS: 360-500.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the IZH Drozd is nice and light due to the fact that the trigger is not mechanical but is instead an electronic on-off switch that operates a solenoid. The solenoid pulsates in turn hitting the CO2 valve release. This is how the single fire and burst fire rates are achieved.

Accuracy: When I was sighting the Baikal Drozd in I got several 5 shot groups well within 1 inch 30 feet out from the target. But when I did my actual video accuracy test, the Drozd did not perform as well, getting more like a 2 inch group, still very reasonable for a gun that can shoot 600 rounds per minute out of the box and 1200 rounds per minute when modified. With metal streaming out the barrel like that you are pretty much going to hit what ever you point it at, the odds are in your favor!

Build Quality: This is a typical Russian made gun, all business and less importance put on looks but even so it is visually appealing, at least to me! Everything works exactly as it should and even though the main shell is plastic it is really a weapons grade polymer so there is no cause for concern here. There are a fair amount of metal components like the factory barrel, most of the magazine and many internal parts.

Realism: Again, the Baikal Drozd IZH MP-661K is not a replica, but it does look like a sub machine gun in many ways, I'm really just not sure exactly what it looks like but when you are shooting this gun you really don't think much about this point because you are too busy grinning!

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Very well made BB machine gun.

• Excellent power.

• Good accuracy in all shooting modes.

• Uses the 12 gram CO2 - a bit cheaper! (Can also convert to bulk air)

• Stock version can shoot up to 600 rounds per minute.

• Multiple stock lengths.

• Rifled barrel.

• Adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

• Removable magazine hold BB's and CO2.

• Many mods for this gun.

• Great for pest control, especially the ones that don't stay still.

• Made in Russia.

Cons:

• 12 Gram CO2 - you need to change it often!

• Top Accessory rail is a bit short and low.

• Rear stock can get lose sometimes (just add some tape to tighten it up a bit).

Comments:

The Baikal IZH MP-661K is one of the most fun BB machine guns out there and well worth the extra cost to get such a quality product that not only is great out of the box but can also be modified in so many ways to improve it's performance and looks dramatically. Sure the Baikal IZH MP-661K now has a big brother, the Drozd Blackbird, but the Blackbird may be just a bit of overkill for some, I kind of like the Drozd Classics more compact size and if you can't nail what your shooting at with 30 rounds then your doing something very wrong! The Drozd is really the epitome of extreme BB gun weaponry!

I already have a customized full auto Drozd Blackbird who can pass up another Dorzd when the price is right! I will be making a double Drozd video down the road :)

My new Classic Drozd came with the Full Auto mod chip, the JimC hand made barrel, a 68ci Nitro Duck 4500 PSI carbon fiber tank and bulk air hose.

I also got the Red Dot scope with my new purchase but used one of my rial risers that fit perfectly giving my new Drozd an AR look to it.

I just noticed that you can get Bulk Air-CO2 Adaptors on Amazon via a company called "Air Venturi". They have them for the Steel Storm, the Drozd and the Blackbird. The Blackbird one actually doubles as a stock mount for your CO2 or Bulk Air Tank.
