Mine is still working after 3 or 4 years of good use. It has been dropped a couple of feet left in the cold/snow and smacked against a tree. The only damage done to it is a crack on the receiver and the fake safety broke of off the top

It is very durable and mine only got a little crack on it that did not affect the function of the gun after it had been drop of of my deck and on to concrete

I use with 7.62x39 ar15 and have had no problems in over 500 rounds. Holds zero and no evidence of any stress breakage. I have destroyed other red dot sights with this rifle so I am impressed with the durability of this one.

I have it mounted to a Keltec KSG shotgun shooting just about everything including some 3" and it has held up just fine. Maybe 500 rounds or so I'd say.

The majority of the gun is plastic, but the cocking assembly, the rear sight (and sight knobs), the outer barrel, inner barrel, the front bottom rail, and front sling mount are metal. The magazine is the most durable feeling of the plastics, because I honestly thought bit was metal for a little while. The plastic on the body does feel a bit on the cheap side, but it is pretty durable. But like all plastic bodies, if you care for it, it will be fine.

No this is a very sturdy gun, personally I had to purchase two because one was stolen, but I abuse the heck out of them and haven't had it break yet!

SPIG. But if u want an airsoft gun, just save up some money and buy a g and g or an echo 1. Thats what i eventually did and my echo 1 ak47 still performs as well as it did out of the box two years ago.

It won't break if you take care of it. If you treat it like crap it will be crap. I got my walther p99 from big 5 about 3 years ago and its still working well.

Most definitely. There's also a review online where one guy was throwing it up and down the roof, freezing it, etc. Also, if the Mossberg kills it, Vortex will send you a new one if that was even a possibility. It is a lot more resilient than people give it credit for.

500 aprox. if i was you, save your money and spend it on a real, high quality gun. I had it for less then a month and it broke.

The target disk would hold up to almost anything short of a 155mm tank sabot round but the framework will probably be destroyed the first time you put a round into the tubular steel. And you will surely do so sooner or later if you shoot at ranges that challenge your ability. The plate is extremely durable, the frame is not. The plate is worth the price, though, and the frame can be rebuilt with other materials.

Yes but FYI I had the gun for about a year and my friend dropped it on the grip and the screw keepin the hammer in place broke. But it is a good gun.

I'm going to say right now that I have never seen a fully automatic Airsoft gun that shoots around 80-100 feet per second. Meters per second is another thing. This Airsoft AK47 has a muzzle velocity of roughly 350-375 FEET per second (that is roughly 117-150 METERS per second). Not sure what "diabolol" pellets are. This Airsoft gun fires .6mm plastic bbs. You can use glow in the dark, colored, marking (usually voids warranties though), biodegradable bbs, and different weighted bbs (.2 gram plastic bbs seem to work best, but I have heard that .23 work well too). At the time that I purchased this particular model, I paid roughly $125. For $150 (not including tax) you can go to airsoftmegastore.com and get a G&G M4. I think the M4 would be a better option because it was A) nicer quality B) better performance and C) a more durable gun. This AK47 fell apart after a while, and I am now just attempting to salvage parts. However, my M4 is working splendidly and has suffered much misuse and still continues to function well. All in all, this was a decent gun for the price. I don't regret buying it, but I wouldn't buy another. Also, I bought this gun three (and a half I think) years ago. I used it many times and enjoyed using it every time, but I personally prefer my M4. It is better and has a different feel. That being said, I was never disappointed when I traded and got the AK instead of the M4 during our little skirmishes. I believe this answered your question. If you have more, please feel free to ask.

It's worth it if you want a really cheap gun. If you are planning on using it in hardcore airsoft fights, definitely don't rely on it to be our primary weapon. It doesn't have a very high FPS (feet per second), meaning it's quite slow. Because of this, any ammunition launched from it might be swayed by the wind or not hit the designated target. I haven't actually been shot by one, so I don't know how painful it is, but it probably isn't that painful. This gun shoots 6mm BBs, which you can buy for a very cheap price on Amazon. I hope that I helped. :)

Its still going strong. I just built an AR, so it will be going on the new platform until I buy another one to put back on my shotgun.

This light is very durable, uses an LED bulb and has a lifetime warranty (http://www.surefire.com/warranty). Thus, I think it should hold up and last. However, you might consider the Surefire forend weapon lights (http://www.surefire.com/dsf-500-590-shotgun-forend.html). After you take into consideration the cost of the light, the mount and the pressure switch, coupled with the placement of each, the cost of the single unit may be more palatable.

Yes, it is very durable and holds zero excellent. There is a video on youtube of a guy torture testing it, and its amazing the abuse it can take! I encourage you to check it out.

I've had this thing a year now and it still works fine just don't over use it, it shoots 6mm airsoft bbs.
