There’s no doubt that an airsoft assault rifle is on of the baddest things on the planet.  There’s no better feeling than mowing down your friends in a milsim exercise with a fury of pellets.  Assault rifles are some of the best airsoft guns money can buy and we review the best ones below:

Best Airsoft Assault Rifles

Soft Air COLT M4 CQB Automatic Electric Airsoft Gun

Here we have what is quite an expensive airsoft assault rifle; it’s one of the pricier ones out there right now. Although it is expensive, it’s also one of the highest quality options out there — and is one of the best airsoft assault rifles on the market. Unlike many other airsoft assault rifles, the Soft Air COLT M4 CQB features an all-metal body with mostly metal components.

Simply put, this gun is much more durable than most others out there. Most airsoft guns are made mostly with plastic, but not this one, and that’s a pretty big deal as far as we are concerned.

 The Soft Air COLT M4 CQB takes the form of an M4 Carbine, which is a really nice rifle indeed, and it definitely looks the part. Besides the orange tip on the barrel, this thing looks like the real deal, and it has the weight to match.

Another really cool thing about the Soft Air COLT M4 CQB Automatic Electric Airsoft Gun is that it comes with a 350-round magazine. Yes, that’s right, you can pour up to 350 BBs into the clip, put the clip in the gun, and fire them all off in a single go.

A small downside to this rifle is that it does have a tendency to jam, especially when continuously firing. For the most part, it works just fine and can pound out a heck of a lot of shots in a limited amount of time.

 Keep in mind that the Soft Air COLT M4 CQB is electric and spring powered, so it doesn’t exactly have a lot of power.

PROS:

• Fully Automatic
• Electric (Charger Included)
• Huge Mag Capacity
• Very Realistic and Highly Durable
• Includes Sights and a Scope

CONS:

• May Jam Sometimes
• Battery Life Isn’t Great
• Not Much Power

Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 Electric Powered Airsoft Rifle

If the above M4 was the gun of the good guys, here we have an airsoft AK47, so you can be the bad guy too if you so choose.

What’s nice about the Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 and what makes it part of the list of the best airsoft assault rifles in our book, is that it’s significantly cheaper than the M4 above, which is always nice, as you can save a bit of money and still get a high-quality product.

 Another really awesome thing about the Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 is the fact that it comes with a massive 600 round clip, so you can fit 600 BBs in it and fire them all off until you are out.

Something else that stands out about the Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 is that it can fire at up to 380 FPS, which isn’t as much as some other options out there, but then again, for a fully automatic airsoft assault rifle it’s actually quite impressive.

The effective range of this rifle is about 60 yards, which isn’t great, but you can’t expect much more from an airsoft gun with plastic ammunition.

 We like how the Soft Air Kalishnikov Tactical AK47 Electric Powered Airsoft Rifle is made of durable materials. It also looks very real and even comes complete with a folding stock, which definitely comes in quite handy at times.

PROS:

• Durable Build
• Looks Realistic
• 600-Round Magazine
• User Friendly
• Folding Stock
• Removable Foregrip

CONS:

• Poor Battery Life
• Not Very Accurate

Umarex HK Heckler & Koch HK416 Airsoft Gun

When it comes to things that go bang, Heckler & Koch has always been a big brand name, and they definitely don’t disappoint with the Umarex HK Heckler & Koch HK416. Apart from the orange tip, this thing looks a lot like a real HK assault rifle.

 A small downside here however is that this product has a lot of plastic and non-metal components, so it isn’t the most durable option out there right now, and it can break relatively easily. However, it’s definitely not the least durable option. One advantage of its design is that it is very lightweight and easy to maneuver, making it one of the best airsoft assault rifles today.

The Umarex HK Heckler & Koch HK416 comes with a 250-round BB magazine, which as you can tell, is not as high capacity as either of the other options reviewed today. Then again, 250 rounds are still quite a lot.

 What’s quite impressive about this item is that it can fire BBs at up to 340 FPS, which is actually more powerful than the M4 or the AK reviewed above, so if you want power, the Umarex HK Heckler & Koch HK416 is the way to go. The flip-up front and rear sights are nice additions too, and we have to say that this rifle is quite comfortable and easy to use.

PROS:

• Decent Mag Capacity
• Affordable
• Lightweight and User Friendly
• Lots of Power
• Decent Accuracy

CONS:

• Not the Most Durable

Final Verdict

What it all comes down to here is the model of assault rifle you want. Do you want an AK, an HK, or an M4? They are all perfectly fine options to go with, just pay attention to factors like power and durability, as well as the magazine capacity. Take your pick from our list of the best airsoft assault rifles — you won’t be disappointed.

I am an outdoor nut and love researching and testing new gear. For me its about finding that diamond in the rough…not just shelling out $$ for the sake of it. Its tough to decide between the mountains and the ocean so I try and travel alot and bring my Australian Cattle dog where I can (but he does not like boats).
