ELAK702 Steel Custom (Gen.2)
Assault Rifle Replica

GF Custom Division is an idea born in the heads of the Gunfire airsoft team. We want to
offer you the highest-quality replicas modified and configured by our team
using the best, tested parts and accessories. No element of the replica is
there for no reason – these are exactly the kind of configurations that we
would like to use in the field. In custom work on replicas helps our many-year
airsoft experience and it can be easily summed up that GF Custom Division is
a project created 100% by players for players. 

This time we have chosen an
excellent replica in a tactical version
for customization – ELAK02 Custom by E&L.

The replica has undergone a
professional, visual modification in order to provide it with a unique
character. As the replica was made practically entirely of steel, we have
decided to make use of that and utilize light “aging” procedures. Part
of the original oxidization has been professionally rubbed off revealing
beautiful, raw steel that the replica was made of. The process covered
also the steel magazine – the entirety looks spectacular. The replica will look
great on a wall display as well as in the field. Of course, we have also taken
care of the adequate coverage of the replica’s surface in order to minimize the
risk of rusting of steel elements. 

E&L Airsoft is a new quality
on the airsoft replica market. The manufacturer has decided to create replicas
that will resemble live firearm originals in terms of material quality and how
well parts are aligned together as much as possible and made strides in that
direction as far as possible – by launching production in the very same
factory that manufactures live firearms! The replicas were made using the
same materials as in the originals: steel, hand finished wood elements or
high-quality polymer. Also, some of the
external parts are identical to those of the original and come off the
very same production line.

This allowed E&L to
significantly move ahead of its competition among the manufacturers from behind
the eastern border. It can compete (and win!) with the best brands on the
market – also when it comes to prices. Its quality and specification make it
not only a beautiful wall decoration but also a very effective field replica.

Outside, a maximum amount of
elements that is possible in a replica was made in a 1:1 scale in comparison
with the original, according to the military specification. This means
that it is possible to change parts between the replica and its live firearm
counterpart! This concerns, among others, the front cradle, gas pipe
cap and iron sights. Little to none other manufacturers offer such
possibilities.

Wooden elements have undergone
hand processing, which on the one hand assures high quality and on the other
hand uniqueness. This model features wooden cradle and gas pipe cap.
One-of-a-kind character was achieved also due to an individual serial number
located on the receiver. Steel elements have undergone anodizing, which
makes their appearance even more realistic, also sometimes the process of
abrasion of the anodizing gives a much better effect than in the case of
painted or lacquered replicas.

ELAK02 Custom features a
handguard lacking any sort of mounting rails – its profiled shape, lack
of any insets and light, but durable polymer construction provide
comfort and ergonomics of use. On the other hand, the gas pipe
feature a metal cover with long RIS 22 mm mounting rail that enables the
attachment of a wide array of accessories, for instance, a reflex sight or
a tactical scope. Apart from that, we also get a very comfortable and pleasant
in use, made from durable polymer, telescopic stock known from
American AR assault rifles.

Great effort was also made to
make the replica’s weight as close to that of the original as possible. It is
heavy and additionally, correct balance is guaranteed by a steel, external
barrel. Worth noting is without a doubt the option of partial disassembly of
the replica, like its live firearm counterpart – without the need for tools. Everything
is based on pins and levers. The manufacturer has taken care of the smallest
details in order to bring the product as close to the original as possible.

All E&L replicas are covered
with thick, technical oil, which safeguards the product during transport
against humidity and other possible impurities. A mix of oil, steel and lacquered wood emits a unique smell that is
well-known to people having contact with firearms.

The battery is located beneath the dust
cover. The cover is held by a single latch, which
allows for a rapid disassembly and the change of the power source at any
moment.

Also internally the product appears superb.
E&L engineers have collected from the market the best solutions and also
added some of their own. The pneumatic system consists of a set of a
silent piston and cylinder heads, which prolongs the lifetime of the system and
provides a better absorption. The replica has a ball bearing spring guide and
the sector gear has an enlarged delayer clip. It provides the BB with more time
to be introduced into the chamber, which is especially important when dealing
with configurations with a high rate of fire. A high accuracy and tight
cone of fire provides the implemented
internal barrel with a diameter of 6.04 mm.

What is Generation 2
characteristic for?

Generation 2 replicas are
equipped with a new standard gearbox! Most importantly, it received a rapid
spring change system – Quick Spring Release. It allows for a quick adaptation
of the replica’s power to the needs of the User via the main spring exchange
without the need to unscrew the gearbox and, as a result, the need to have
access to a workshop or special tools. Once the gearbox has been taken out of
the replica’s body, the process of spring change lasts literally mere
seconds thanks to a special construction of the frame and the guide.

Generation 2 has a perfected, even more durable gearbox, which in
comparison with previous models has
replaced with new ones, among others: the frame, gears, cylinder, nozzle,
spring guide and wiring. The new solutions guarantee a better reliability,
higher ROF and smaller energy drain.

What components exactly will we
find inside E&L Gen 2?

– the new type, reinforced
gearbox frame is mounted on 9 mm ball bearings and adapted to the Quick
Spring Release system
– ball bearing spring guide QSR (Quick Spring Release)
– a set of steel gears made with the use of precise CNC machines.
– one-piece, steel cylinder made with the use of precise CNC machines 
– a sealed nozzle with additional O-ring
– a set of 9 mm ball bearings
– a reinforced, POM piston with three steel teeth
– a muffled piston head
– an efficient High Torque M170 motor on neodymium magnets
– a low-resistance, silver-plated wiring

Generation 2 also features an
interesting addition – a magwell spacer for
the magazine well, whose implementation realistically simplifies and speeds
up the magazine change process!

Replicas come in brand new,
practical and elegant boxes. The boxes are fully filled with a hard foam which
safely and firmly holds the replica and all of its accessories in
place. Each replica comes with an oilcan, while models featuring a fixed
stock additionally come with a cleaning kit, the very same as the one intended
for a live firearm.

The replica comes with a Hi-Cap,
steel magazine with a capacity of up to 150 BBs. 

 The set includes:
– replica
