Maruzen makes two versions of this gun. Named SR-2 (Simple Rifle Version 2)

The first (and cheaper) one is a short range, target shooting rifle. No hop-up.

The second is a standard airsoft rifle. Hop-up (ASP2), bolt (ASP2) and compatible. The plastic quality is on par with any other Maruzen rifle, meaning that is is a high nylon polymer coumpound.

Magasine design is based off the L96 magasines, with an extra security on both sides to prevent the mag skipping that appears on older/worn mags or magwell.

The receiver is all polymer, so is the stock. The barrel group is still metal (uses any ASP2 barrel). The front stock section can be removed to acces internals easier.

The stock adapter lets you install any buffer-tub based AR stock. An adapter is probably available to install full stocks or the likes.


The Echo1/Well/china clone is basically the same, with cheaper tolerances. The plastic is cheaper, more of a shiny ABS thing. The mags are compatible between the two.

IMO it can be a very nice rifle for a DMR or as a secondary. Lighter than an APS-2/L96 while keeping the reliability. I am considering buying one just for that purpose.
