I think the real question is.. How Is Eric, Cory and the rest of the GAMERS holding up in 2020?
hello there
So sweet
Better if we were chilling with Uncle Alfie
I needed drunk Corey this week
Haven’t watched airsoft vids in years. This pops up in my recommended and I see dudes ive played with/against at river city half a decade ago when I was 16. Holy crap I hope you all have been well. I miss the airsoft days
I play at rca too
And I’m 16 lol
It's been six years since Krytac became a thing? HOLY SHIT I FEEL OLD.
I got my Krytac Alpha CRB a year ago and the first time I took it out to have a small scrimmage with some buddies, I ate this while running and slammed it into the ground. Only some dirt and scratches. It’s a damn good gun. Ive banged it around a couple of other times but it still runs damn good after a year. Good vid guys.
They are nice af the alpha line up the spr is beyond great all my friends are jealous of my 😅. Have you done anygrades on you're crb
Holy shit ... It's buff Seth Rogan
Thank Jeebus he doesn't have the same personality as Seth Rogan.
You're only about the 900th person to make that comparison.
1.2 joule, i can use it wherever i want
Me that live in Italy: cries in 1 joule max
I love my krytac crb, I’ve owned it for over 5 years and it’s never failed me. All I ever had to do was switch out the fuse and the spring, well as r hop the stock barrel. It’s super competitive and works well. I’ve changed the externals to make it fit my style and that’s it. I’m able to hit head size targets from 200 ft with .30’s and that’s all I could ask for. I just want a reliable gun that’s consistent and lasts me for years.
What battery do you use I plan on getting one but I don’t wanna battery to big
I've owned a CRB Mk II for 3 years. I play at an outdoor field and I've dropped it on concrete (twice when I didn't put the sling on correctly) and have ran into door jams, and my Krytac hasn't broken. It's a good gun, but I got an Avalon right before Covid hit, so I'm bummed I can't compare how that performs compared to the Kytac. I also had gotten a Specna Edge around the same time just to see if it would be a good "back up" but I havent' fielded it. And my backyard is way too small to test them out.
This week on “death metal and airsoft”.....🤘🤘🤘
Rivers of nihil and Fit for an autopsy shirts? Yup, ok, finally someone i can trust when it comes to airsoft on youtube.
I would personally go VFC Avalon's or the Maple Armories guns. The stock issue and some proprietary internals are the main put off's from krytac. They work amazingly don't get me wrong but still things to think about
Nah dawg, that’s totally fair. Those guns rock. Honestly I think we did a bad job covering the state of the rest of the high end AEG market in this video. Might have to rectify that in another video.
thats a great opinion! mas guns are great.
> VFC Avalon
*Negative Airsoft has left the video*
True, Avalons also have full ambi controls. Only reason I didn't buy Krytac.
I remember a decade ago, VFC was the cream of the crop, right besides KWA and G&G. Since then, Krytac has taken over, and I honestly wasn't a fan of the looks of them. Some of them use proprietary parts too, which is a big no no for me
my next AEG is a krytac. I have no broken cymas, VFCs, G&G, Echo1 etc etc. I just want something that works on 9.6v batteries and doesn't implode after 5,000bbs.
Love your videos, give us more, please!
I recommend upgrading to 7.4v LiPos, they'll make such a difference
I still use 9.6s and my g&g 416 had alot of rounds put through it and still ran awsome for 5 years the only issues were trigger spring tappet spring and contacts fryed out mind u i shot it alot in that 5 years
I'd be lying if I said I wouldnt watch the uncut Ramble Edition of you guys' videos.
2024 and my krytac spr is doing very well. changed to 416mm prommy barrel with blue prommy bucking, stock nub and guns shooting great.
I agree with you on just about everything including that it's a player's gun. I bought my first Krytac, the LMG largely because of your review. I had a Krytac SPR for a bit and it was nice but I ended up selling it. I might consider the vector at some point. But I think what you guys were eluding to at the end is totally right, there aren't a lot of choices. There is the vector, the LMG, and varying lengths of M4s (I forgot the Krytac 47 existed haha).
Ran my 3 Krytacs for years, HPA’d them and both the heavily used internals and externals still are great. It’s just too bad they’re not releasing interesting new guns on a more regular basis. Another M4 is cool and all but I waited 8 months on the Vector and I haven’t been that excited for years now. Also the vector is really good performance wise. Love these vids. Always miss the live stuff because of time difference.
There is that Ak M4 hybrid there made which is certainly interesting haha
Rhop is a serious upgrade for accuracy as well gents. Completely eliminates fliers
I know this is from 3 years ago but I am BRAND new into airsoft, like haven’t played one actual game yet. Looking to get the krytac trident mk2. I know they touched on the upgraded hop up but I don’t understand that well. Is “Rhop” the brand or is that a model?
@DrMantisTobogganMD13 neither. It's a type of modification. Just fire it into CZcams. There are a ton of videos
Krytacs are a decent value if you don’t mess with them internally because generally their qc is pretty good and they tend to like oem parts. Once you open them up and start changing shit is when they no longer are worth the price and you’re better getting a cheaper base gun
I like my Krytac, I've done a load of stuff to it so it'll do exactly what I want, but I like to tinker so that's partially on me.
The only things I'd like is an ICS style split gearbox and deans out of the box.
Also the OEM gears should not cost more than the fucking Prometheus upgrades.
Also maple leaf MR hop (220mm crazy jet, stock hop unit, Prometheus Bridge tensioner) w/ .30s @ .8 joules will consistently hit torso shots at 50 metres.
My trident mk2 CRB-m came with deans. Just arrived last week
@@duallydude7470 I bought mine maybe a year ago, no such luck for me
Late to this discussion, but providing a review nonetheless.
I purchased my Krytac Trident Mk II two years ago (June 2019).
Being new to the sport, but being an avid shooter, I wanted to mimic my real-steel rifle as best as possible. The Krytac is almost identical to my real-steel setup, regarding barrel length, total length, and even close to weight (empty).
In an early game in the "woods" of central Texas (yes, they exist; barely), I had to cross a heavily vegetated creek. In order to be able to better catch myself on the far side, I tossed my Krytac across the creek so that I would have my hands free. That toss resulted in the cracking, and the ultimate destruction, of my Haley Strategic Inforce Light. My Krytac, on the other-hand, didn't even seem to have a scratch on it.
I have since replaced the internals with a Polarstar F2 and UGS in-line tank and I absolutely love it. It always turns heads at fields and events. I've not had any serious issues with the gun itself.
The platform lends itself well to upgrades, while also holding its own if you choose to stay stock. The only reason I swapped was for dumb personal preference (I hate the sound of AEGs - sounds like nails on a chalkboard to me).
10/10, I am a Krytac fanboy - I tell my friends getting into the sport to buy them and I would buy my Krytac again.
How is it only one year old CZcams???? This is 2022!!!
DI = Direct impingement
Caliber: Multi = it's chambered for 5.56 and can also accept .223
Multi also covers 6mm creedmoor, 6.5 grendal, 300 blackout, I think you can get 224 in there as well as .458 socom and .50 Beowulf. Most of them not cheap though
just decided to pick up a krytac mk2 crb since i'd heard praise, saw eric's video on the issues, saw this, looks great to me, i think i'll be happy.
I love you guys sooooo long
Above all krytac is a workhorse. It takes a couple basic upgrades well but it doesn't need a lot.
A lot of brands have (a line of) guns that have the same performance. Difference is krytac doesn't do budget etc. G&g G2 series are very decent, but also have small issues. ICS are pretty good but pricy. Specna have a very good pricepoint but need to be opened and worked on. TM is to expensive for what it is honestly. Maybe KWA but it doesn't have some features other stuff has.
Can confirm the Trident MK3 is a amazing gun i was sliding all day from cover to cover at my most recent game and it had no issues keeping up
I dream of the day the Origin 12 is released:)
I find it curious how people drift towards one brand in one country and towards another in another country in general...
I'm actually a huge CYMA, VFC, Echo 1, and G&P fan
@@coryzuhlsdorf3770 Me too, except the money pit that VFC is.Really, I´d rather use a UK-Arms, because it has better value for money.The value is still 0, but it is cheaper.
And CYMA and Echo 1 are super cheap and reliable brands, and G and P is like the pinacal of mid-range AEGs´-
It's called how much $$ a company willing to invest in certain regions.
@@iammrbadguy9706 this comment. 100%.
@@iammrbadguy9706
Echo 1 is basically JG
I found your channel about a year ago. It looks like you guys have a blast at games, and I’ve been debating making an airsoft purchase for a while now. If you guys are ever in Florida I would love to shoot some real steel with you!!
I've kept my krytac crb mk2 bone stock for the past 2 years I've had it, only cleaned the barrel once recently, its the nokia of airsoft and is more reliable than my highly upgraded guns
Ps. backwards bcm foregrip is big pp energy
you're gross unless you have the backwards krytac front sight as a hand stop then its not big pp energy!
@@josh3638 it has been done
@@BroadwingAirsoft I need a loadout by tomorrow where you refuse to mention it the entire video.
@@josh3638 I'll post it on my Instagram
@@BroadwingAirsoft I’ll be waiting.
My field/group/team that I was a part of used krytacs as rentals. Out of about 20-25 alphas/tridents, we had zero problems for the year and half that they were used heavily as rentals.
Only time we had a “problem” was when one of our team mates gun case fell off a moving truck and it heavily broke the lower receiver, (the cheapish hard case was basically destroyed from the fall)
Other problem was the shitty pdw battery cap that required a tool to remove the screw (granted they finally moved over to a tool-less one now)
The other “problem” was the Tamiya connectors being bad and having the wiring come out of the connectors, we quickly fixed that by converting all of them to deans.
Well, Tamiya connectors are basically build to fail that way after a while. They all do it...
i'v upgraded my krytac that i'v had for 2 years, new barrel, max hopup, maple leaf bucking, new spring (shoots right at 400), new air seal components. my gears and motor are stock tho.
what springs did u install bro?
@@mikoteevee just saw this lol. I put a prommy non linear M120 in it. I actually am in the process of getting and installing a gate, new motor and high speed gears, its soon only going to have a krytac shell lol. The gun itself as it sits is still running perfectly, I just want pre cocking and I am going high speed gears and high torque motor so I can get really good trigger response. it's not bad as it is, but I want to be able to "spam" it better, or at least closer to my real firearms.
@@MrSolLeks haha no problem bro.. i asked cause i was planning to install a M140 spring.. which I did.. and is shooting 500fps and i liked it hehe.. i also chamged the piston, piston head, cyl and cyl head and Nozzle.. all Slong... i also installed a Tienly 40k motor but im using the Stock krytac 18:1 gears.. you think my setup is ok?
@@mikoteevee I don't see anything wrong with your setup but it all depends what you are doing with it lol. for my setup, im going for mainly a really good semi auto rifleman. the motor I ordered is a lower speed one but with more torque, higher TPA than most of em (it's a SHS / rocket airsoft one, the 28k iirc). mixing that high tpa with a high gear ratio (13:1, also shs / rocket) should in theory do what I want it to, though as i'v not gotten those parts yet we will see. I don't know slong parts but if they give a good airseal than your golden. most of my airseal parts are laylax.
sounds to me like you are going for a DMR setup so as long as your motor can pull your gears fast enough for ya, then your golden. IMHO the motor seems like its more of a high speed one and while it will pull the m140, it won't give as good of trigger response than a lower speed but higher torque one. granted im not the best tech and I largely learned what I know from youtube channels like the airsoft tech.
@@MrSolLeks thank you for your inputs bro... i think i have a problem now... i just chronoed my krytac this morning.. and its just giving me 380fps with .2g bbs in semi auto... is this right? as i said im using a M140 spring.. what could be the problem?.. but when i switch to auto mode.. i could reach 470fps.. weird...
Overall I do agree with they are still some of the best ootb aegs you can get. Like you said, not much to really upgrade.
My only issue with Krytac, is their decision to only go through evike as a distributor. Exclusivity is never the answer...
how long do hey take to deliver compared to Airsoft station or GI?
@@jerseyltd I've bought a couple big orders from them recently, and it doesn't take any more than a week and a half between purchase and the items showing up at your door. At least that's my experience with their free shipping. I know I'm a little late to this comment, but I hope this helps.
Haters are gonna hate, and the fact that there are so many haters trolling Krytac just shows how good Krytacs are. There's definitely other great guns out there, but my CRB is my main because it shoots really well and it always shoots. I've had numerous problems with my Elite Forces, Areses, ICSes, and Classic Armieses, and even my G&Gses, but my Krytac runs like a 1980s Toyota pickup.
I have a crb mk2 keymod for 4 years and it has never ever failed yet. A few months ago i started to upgrade the gun just becausw i like to tune anything i own.. warhead brushless motor, begadi pro cnc HU, prommy 387mm tbb, gate titan, begadi bucking and nub, retro arms 14.5 T piston, begadi cnc pistonhead and cylinderhead with a matching o ring nozzle. Let me tell yoz i love my gun and it fuking rips 🔥
The saving grace of the Krytac gearbox is that the "quick change spring system" makes the gearbox remarkably easy to put back together. I didn't realize how poorly shimmed my CRB was until I recently reshimmed everything. Pinion gear on motor didn't have enough contact with the bevel gear. My CRB sounds like a completely different animal now.
I have 250k bb through my krytac Spr that I got in 2018 and she's still rocking , just upgrading it now just incase she poops. Going motor piston,head,and cylinder mosfet snd brushless with a promie with a flat hop because I don't need more than 300 feet.
I would love to see Krytac Origin 12.
Off topic, but love the shirts gents. Big fan of both of those bands
Come down to Southern Utah and play with Desert Ghosts Airsoft!! My buddy Derick was talking to you guys awhile back about coming down, we need to get you guys down here 👊🏼😎
Love my MK2 SBR, changed to a couple PTS exterior parts for ergonomic reasons and an SHS high torque motor for a little better trigger response. On a side note is it too early to start a petition to bring back the discord?

@@whitmills6691 Thank you, random citizen 👍
Shoutout to Omega!^^ Loved the slim look of that rifle when I saw it then!
Nice Rivers of Nile shirt, my band opened for them a couple times.
And your band is...? (Genuine curiosity)
My favorite part is when the orange guy starts talking about his shorts, his eyes meet with the combover dude, and then the combover guy whips those little shorts down and pumps him over the table. He looks over at the camera just before completion, takes a swig from his orange pop and loudly grunts "ahhhhhhhhhh, REFRESHING!"
Since they made the rec 7 they should make the rec 10 (308 version of the rec 7). Also for impression kits unless your doing a seal kit or old military kits couldnt you get away using krytacs for the kits?
The new krytacs also have a cnc air nozzle.
Good to hear, my 4 year old have had a plastic one. It was leaking all the air lol
can you confirm this? I might be deciding between a CRB-M and a G&G SR30 (with alum o-ring nozzle)
@@Bandit213 I'll talk to my contact at krytac to confirm. Comment in a few days if you don't hear back from me.
@@Bandit213 well your lucky day. He just got back to me. Currently pdw-m and barrett series only have the cnc nozzle. Everything will follow eventually but wasn't given a timeline.
Ive eaten absolute shit and slammed my krytacs into the ground and never got the kry cracks lmao
ive legit busted two VFC's lol cracked in the same spot of where you cracked your krytac.
Check out cyma qbs is really the best bang for you buck at this point. I would have to say after using one it rivals krytac performance for around 280.
The mosfet is garbage and will kill themselves on a 11.1 otherwise they are great.
@@Mebbwebb agreed, but throw a aster or titan in it and your about the cost of a krytac then
Bit of off-topic, but why does Evike have to come up with such retarded names for Cyma guns? QBS, Sportline, etc.... Just write the damn model number.
097/098 aren't the only Cyma guns with quick spring change, 009 lineup has that feature too.
@@dainiusvysniauskas2049 so evike doesn't name cymas guns, cyma does. Second the 009 has a different quick change system. Qbs stands for quick buffer system. Because you unthread the buffer tube and take the spring out, completely tooless. The 009 takes tools to take the spring out. So you may not like their naming system, but it's a major differentiator on the market and it makes a lot of sense.
@@dmoose7066 czcams.com/video/N-GkleJSxUo/video.html
There's no "QBS" name anywhere on the box, only actual model name (097B).
Just got into airsoft recently and thought Krytac is top tier brand. So if it is mid tier, then what is top tier in 2021?
I just bought the CRB-M, wich is the mlok version of the mk11 Trident and it came with deans connect and a deans to tamiya adapter.🤙Sadly due to the lower manufacturing evike informed me that krytac is not including the extra black flash hider. Overall I love it, only fielded once but it's great so far out of the box.
an airsoft video yay!! glad to see it back. now I just have to pray for speeds next.
Am I hearing that a Trident takes a BCM rail?
My krytac cracked from falling 3 feet inside a padded gun back on soft grass. My only other m8 that runs Krytac had the same happen to him... Still love em though, bought a new lower and since then it's been great!
CYMA platinum anyone? On 7.4 it is beautiful.
So glad to see the old gang back during these dark times, FUCK COVID!. Anyways, I bought the Krytac SPR Mk 1 a few years ago and still runs good today. The only issue I had right out of the gate was trying to find mags to feed this beast in full auto as my collection of mags could not keep up but did work in semi. I found that PTS EPM mags only worked well in this format either semi/full auto. Not sure about other brands for this platform, but these worked the best. As for the new Krytac, wtf is this hot garbage with flat triggers...ugh, I hate flat triggers, reminds me too much about Paintball for fuck sake. So glad to see ya guys, hope more vids and or podcast live is in the near future, cheers and stay safe .
Informative vid, thx GG.
I am so torn between getting a VFC M27 or a Krytac LMG. If VFC and Krytac have the same amount of issues, which issues are tge easiest to fix?
Both are about the same
Got a vector this month. My emg dd sa-e19 works great my go to and full loaded.
I kept watching because I care more about your metal opinions than your airshaft opinions.
Lower cracking.... my Krytac LMG lower cracked on day one of gaming and no. I did not abuse the gun. It was the first Krytac gun that had the lower receiver broke on me out of 8 Krytac. But the G&G new SR15 are pretty good.
My lvoa is still running the contacts look almost brand new everything still looks pretty clean after opening it up over all there awsome but a little over priced but there pretty good for what there worth
i was looking at getting an lvoa s here in the uk and i’m coming from a g&g tr4 top tech would it be worth the trade (up)
@@cinspain08 i have my lvoa and the toptech 416 and g&gs 416 is a slept on gem had both for sevril years and both were ran hard and still proformed well
@@cinspain08I bought 2 new out the box crbmk2 the 10 inch converted them to mk18s internally I replaced the shitty motors with warhead brushless and perun v2 hybrids and holy moly there silky smooth on the trigger pulls
I have a Specna edge 2.0 and it works very well.
Thumbs up For Rivers of Nihil shirt
Yeh I had the problem with every bolt and screw getting rusty from the flash hider to the sling plate
Got a VFC vr16 Caliber rhopped and a Rapier. I love these guns they are amazing. Looking to get a samurai edge m4 next.
Multi caliber on real m4 platforms stand for the chamber can handle pressures of .223 and .556
And the trigger guard thing on real weapons is dual purpose. Snow gloves and a shot to the hand so your finger doesn't get stuck in the guard. From what Iunderstand
Between my CRB and PDW, one of them is always down. I think I just have sheeit luck when it comes to Krytacs. Krytacs have become ubiquitous where I play - most of the time I do admit that Krytac is probably one of the best "out of the box" guns.
Eric thanks for showing up today, Corey awesome video lol. JK bros. Great video. Yeah I'm a believer. Can't beat a Krytacs out the box performance.
CYMA platinum on sale with a gate titan/aster is the best value gun atm if you know how to tech or a maple armouries gun. I think Krytac and VFC are really midrange/mid low value now a days for what your getting/payed for internally performing.
Bahahaha XD great jager reference there 😂 I haven’t heard his name in a LONG TIME!
If they sold Krytacs with a gate titan or similar electronic trigger unit, I couldn't see a reason not to buy one. I mean, I wanna get an LMG anyway, but it would be so good to get one with a etu fitted
I got the carbine length in the titanium color and check the hop up unit and it comes with the new blue bucking by krytac
Had my MK1 CRB for 4-5 yrs. My lower cracked just from holding the gun - right after the end of their BS 6 month warranty LOL. Had to buy a receiver set from my buddy cuz I couldn't find a new lower from a retailer. Another time I dropped the gun and the gearbox locked up. HUGE FPS loss every few months, always had to frequently change the spring. From 370 FPS to 350 to under 300. I also own a PDW and on both guns, the gearbox screws have broke at the top.
My stock broke other than that still using my original krytac from 2015
How do you guys feel about ICS guns? and maybe ICS vs. Krytac? :)
I own a few ics and krytac guns with a rec7 hopefully soon and if it helps in any way the krytacs have been much more reliable in terms of the gear box and my ics cxp ape with its collapsible stock cut the battery wire twice which was surprising since i rarely fold the stock and the battery wire looks really sturdy
Honestly I’ve had 1 krytac and now I have a specna arms h20 and I much prefer specna
Just bought a Rec 7, it's my first Krytac. Thanks to this channel! Yet to use it I'm but curious to know if it will need an upgraded inner barrel? Since a lot of guns do... They should come with the Prometheus Krytac spec tightbore barrels out of the box!
Did u get the 400 fps or 350 fps if so how do they chrono with .25 bbs ?
@@HarryPNess90057 I’m from the uk so mine is coming in very consistently at 335. I did get the Krytac spec Prometheus inner barrel. The gun was a little underwhelming until that upgrade. It’s phenomenal now

push receiver pins like on a real AR
an anti reversal latch release just like on the auctruis AK's
deans
