Starting Airsoft - How does an AEG work (Automatic Electric Gun: Beginners Guide)
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 06. 2016
- A relatively quick look at the basics of getting started in airsoft: This time we look at the basics of how the most common weapon in Airsoft works, an AEG, using the M4 platform as an example. While this is using that as an example the information still applies to other platforms conceptually.

I love that fact that you stumble on you script a bit (it's harder than it seems!) but you don't let it stop you; you just carry on sharing your information. Thanks for these videos!
Agreed, it adds like an actual human aspect of the video
0:29 when i have to do a presentation infront of the whole class
lol... I understand!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
True... but I think it was an editing mistake
lol
@@paulgrote7139 Yup :( That shouldn't have been in there still, lol.
Again, how the hell can someone downvote this video? What is wrong with people? He's explaining how an AEG works. As far as I can tell, he presented a difficult (and frankly tedious) topic in an easy-to-digest format. Good work!
Thanks a lot, it's frustrating at times seeing all the negative feedback on something that's literally just supposed to inform... and always lovely to hear the other side :)
tad editing issue at 0:33 ?
For real lol

yes buy that battery if you want your face blown off when you try and charge it
No if you turn up the volume you can hear him inhale, I tho k he just forgot what to say lol
Take 46!! annnd action !!
Before we can kick off with anything else, it's time to talk the total basics.. We've done what to expect at a game, so how does the gun work? (with some slight fail near the start.. yeah, stumbling over words is a thing!)
Nice I have a pretty well made Thomson AEG. It's almost as heavy as the real one.
little more editing but its good man and the info is useful that's the point do you play playstation online? i think i saw wastedspace as a gamertag
Hey I'm getting into airsoft, and I'd really like if you could take your gun apart and show us how to rebuild it
w4stedspace THANK YOU SO MUCH
w4stedspace where do you get your Bb guns but if you don't do you know any Bb gun websites which are for uk
There is an oopsie at the start of the audio
These are the best, most detailed, technical videos I’ve yet found. Thank you for taking the time to make them, they are a HUGE help.
this was very useful actually and i thank you for making it as until now the gear box has just been this magic, anomalous, thing that turns motor spin into piston pull/release that i have been afraid to open up and look at for fear of R.U.D (Rapid Unplanned disassembly)
"rapid unplanned disassembly" lol, i like it
A good and entirely appropriate term for what happens when you open an AEG gearbox on your first time :) If ur lucky you find most of the springs..
Perfect video. I was watching some videos online of airsoft from pov and it is really fun to watch, but i wondered how these "guns" work. I looked so many dumb videos where they don't know how to explain and dont show anything. This video is perfect at explaining everything about the mechanism of the gun.
Excellent vid! Thank you for a good mechanical overview of a marker. I have watched too many vids trying to explain the same thing, but falling miserably short. You Sir, took the time and made the effort to produce a truly top notch explanation. Thank you.
This is definitely a worthwhile thing to watch. Been interested in airsoft for a while so this definately helps
Just started with Airsoft. But I'm very familiar with remote control cars in the motor is in the gears and everything also know about pneumatic air guns. What you just showed put everything together what I needed to know thank you so much I appreciate it
it is nice to have a video like this to show what a airsoft gun is for us new people
That was hugely helpful, thank you so much. I just got my first AEG and could not figure out what appeared to be a feeding problem. Once I understood the internals, I figured out the problem was actually not having the mag sufficiently wound up.
Just wanna say, great video. Very well explained for someone who loves to play airsoft and is barely getting into wanting to know what different components are and what they do!
Great stuff here. It’s surprising how often many ‘getting started’ videos assume that you already know quite a lot, or perhaps they skip and forget to mention many details. Thanks!
seriously this video is so well-made and easy to understand, thanks for showing how AEG works, hope you would keep posting similar video up in the near future :)
This was a one-stop shop to get my dad's Airsoft working again, thank you!
Fantastic. First explanation I've found that explains how the air doesn't just blow into the magazine.
Thanks for showing the internals, I've been trying to find a vid like yours that shows everything.
I love techy things, and while I could guess what was going on inside it is always quite interesting to actually see the insides and how they fit together.
This is probably just a matter of personal viewing preference, but in case you are looking for some constructive criticism, I think that the fact that the close up you cut in didn't match up with what you were talking about / doing in the non-closeup part made that part seem slightly disorganised. I loved the closeup, but maybe it would have been better to have it as a quick cut-to where you reiterate how it works before returning to what you were discussing (or alternatively if it were just a closeup of the things on the screen)?
I was impressed that you managed to do it all in one go :)
Excellent video. I love seeing how things work. Didn't find it boring at all myself.
Great video! I actually love that you added in the mistakes, makes the whole video better and feels human.
:) Can confirm, I am not just some disembodied hands!
These videos are awesome thanks for posting them I do hope you pick back up this series.
Great videos, Dude - I check back here regularly.
I've been playing for a little while now and 'have the hang' of the game itself but I do find your tech vids very informative and helpful.
A capital effort, Dear Boy!!!
I absolutely loved this video in every way, from in depth explanation and a clear love of the sport. Well done! 👏
Thanks so much! :)
Good video; Especially like the way you are going about introducing the game and the mechanics behind the game more so then just churning out all the game-play footage you can without nice information along side it.
Thanks dude :) That's exactly what I was hoping to achieve and also avoid so pleased to hear that someone appreciates it also! Gameplay is fun but I felt it both needed some context, but honestly, I also love both the teching side of airsoft and also sharing what I've learned with people :)
Thanks for the breakdown. As a first time beginner looking to get into the sport further this was very helpful.
I simply don't have the funds for doing Airsoft.
Or really the funds to do almost anything that involves money :/
Join the club :P
same. if I was financially able, I would do HEMA.
let me guess thats why you joined youtube
Sooo, I guess you are starving right now :c
Hetzer Hasser You would be suprised.
Such a great video! Just getting into airsoft and this is exactly what I was looking for, how the internals work so I know how to work on my guns. Thanks for the video great job!
Good basic explanation, that makes no assumptions about the level of knowledge of the audience.
Good job.
Thank you! This is exactly what I've been looking for, a concise informative breakdown of how an electric airsoft gun (pistol the same I guess?) works.
Wow, that was a nice explanation of how things work with a AEG. Thanks for the info
I am pretty new the AirSoft, use to compete in paintball. Thanks for showing how this works. It makes a lot more sense now.
Awesome dude, I really needed to know how those guns work, great explanation.
Great stuff! I've always been hesitant to crack my AEG open. I assume that at some point you will cover some of the thing to modify and improve the performance of a AEG?
I'm probably way too late on this, but these work the same way as spring powered Nerf Blaster, except everything is bigger and more powerful to shoot foam darts rather than BBs. There's a huge community behind modding and building those.
So AEGs are just upgraded stampedes?
this is helping me to understand more about guns and how they work I used to be the person who used the equipment but knew nothing about it but now I'm starting to understand it more it's actually really interesting and I'm quite lazy when it comes to learning so thanks WS
This was extremely helpful and the perfect length
My son wants to get into airsoft as he's about outgrown nerf. I am one who needs to know how everything works and this was a fantastic video. Thank you!
This is super informative and good. Would love to see a gas pistol run-through as well.
Good stuff. I love to know how these things work. Keep doing what you do.
Great video keep on teaching us noobs it’s great to go on CZcams and find videos like this that teach us that have never opened one how to mess with them if we ever needed to and it’s great to learn about the hop up a lot of people that get into this sport don’t even know anything about it I tell u I’ve known about airsoft and I’ve had a few guns in my time but never even knew about the hop up till now bcuz I just bought a G&G arp556 and I started looking on CZcams to learn a lot more about the sport so yea keep making tech videos a lot of us learn a lot from u 🙏👍
This helped me in my thermodynamics homework. Thank you
Very informative clip. Explains the basics that other websites and clips don't. looking forward to more of the same.
Thanks sir :-) more in a similar vein planned soon!
Oh good! Theres so many different weapons and manufacturers to choose from, even for M4 rifle for example. Thank you very much!
Thank you this helps so much I’m a beginner and really appreciate the sport
great breakdown, can you do one for Gas Blowback Rifles? co2 vs propane/mapp gass etc?
GBB is way more realistic, which is why all of my guns are GBB. One AK-74, one H&K m416, one Ruger 10/22 and one Beretta m9.
Vincent Van der velde I'm with u I wanna find sum good GBB rifles if u are kind enough to recommend sum
Dude......go to the top of the youtube page you are on and type in "gas blowback airsoft guns" and you will get more than you bargained for!
Raekwon McCoy If you want a solid and moddable rifle, you should go with a KJW KC-02 and an extended inner barrel.
@@undyingUmbrage problem is gas is more expensive than electric. gbb is pretty cool though. almost all the milsim guys at the field i go to use gas and theyre also quieter than the aeg dude.
Im prior military looking at possibly doing airsoft i have looked into some weapons but my lack of knowledge on them has made me hesitant on purchasing anything this video is not the magic bullet that answers all of my questions but it helped a lot thanks
Very helpful, thanks for uploading this!
Thanks for the explanation mate, you are still helping people 6 years on.
Love your content man! keep it up and thanks for all the insight!
I always thought they used little compressed c02 tanks this is pretty cool
Definitely some of the best detailed videos ive seen! :D
Learned alot ... Thanks... just new to this and trying to learn as much as possible before purchasing. Great Information!!
Fantastic video!!! Thank you so much for this detailed and simplistic explanation. 10/10!!!
Very informative and well explained, thankyou very much! Really enjoyed this video!
I'm literally doing my first game this weekend and I've been binge watching ur vids from gear to first gun and how it all works and u have no idea how helpful this is thank you for doing thsi
Helpful vids for a beginner! Thank you
awesome explanation , I was really curious about how it worked :)
Excellent tutorial for us new to airsoft.
I will recommend this to newer players, thanks for the vids
Thank you. Very helpful. Wish people would do more vids like this
Clear as water. Thanks a lot for the info sir.
So THAT'S how they work! Thank's for finally getting me to understand how thy work.
wow so simple, thanks BROTHER!
Very good explanation
Love the vids, good sir, glad to see more airsoft stuff again. Excellent per usual. I've fiddled around with Nerf foam dart guns, basically a simplified version of these, for a while now. I love the mechanical aspects of learning how things tick by tinkering with them. Can't wait for more!
Thank you for a very informative video
Excellent for me the new to all this guy
Thanks a lot this video had resolved my curiosity
Fantastic airsoft videos and really good infomation too, look forward to more. what upgrades have you done to your m4? maybe a upgrade video. Thanks keep up the good work.
Great explanation, thanks!
What an amazing video! Are there more videos in this series on your channel? I couldn't find a playlist on them... So well explained, very talented.
Not many at the moment, I ended up taking a year away from airsoft, but am starting to release new episodes again the last few months. Thanks for the compliments sir! :)
Excellent video!
Haha I had to make a video presentation a year ago and made many more mistakes than your little goof half a minute in. But it brought that memory back haha. Nice video.
perfectly explained, thank you 👍
So helpful thanks. Good video.
Great job man, thanks!
Well explained. Thank you.
Thanks for awesome video; Great invention the AEG...You have great knowledge...
This was an amazing vid, ive now subscribed.
Amazing. You did a very, very good job of explaining this. I feel like I understand something now :D
Thanks, nice demo
What you need to do to improve is release a load more of these videos! You are by far the most clear, concise and interesting youtuber explaining these airsoft systems. They are interesting to listen to and easy to process. Airsoft has grown so much since you put this video out, please make more airsoft videos!
Heard loud and clear :) More vids incoming soon!
@@w4stedspace 2 years ago it was these very videos I first watched before my 1st ever game day as a rental down the local woodland. I've since had an absolute blast of a time to this point and loved every second of every site I've visited, love the community, me and my friends and brother who I started with still going strong (albeit some of them inconsistently!). I came back to reminisce via the vicarious medium of these videos, and I just remember feeling exactly like you did through your starting with a CM16 raider element of series. Hell, I waited after my rental days and saved up to buy a GC16 Predator for my first RIF (mainly because the rental guns at the local site I started at _were_ CM16 raiders, so I felt I just wanted to step it up a notch but not stray too far) because of this series. I point those who start off who I know to this playlist because a lot of it still holds true X many years down the line now. You did good, and you should be really proud of this and what it's done for likely thousands of players at this point. I look forward to move vids in the future - and hope to see you on the field and buy you a burger sometime.
@@dalejones6248 I'll take you up on that burger :) Love reading these messages, thank you... just wanted to give people a sensible look at the hobby and avoid people spending loads of money unnecessarily and apparently that was the right choice! Working on some more ideas now for this year as I'd love to continue this playlist but wanna make sure the new videos are the 'right' sort also, good advice and hopefully on topics that people actually care about.
Thanks for the kind words, it's not hard to get motivated to do more when people are saying things like that :)
At 2:27, it is kind of peanut gallery, but the technical term is pistol grip. Cool video! Loved the explanation.
Absolutely helpful thank man
Thank you so much! This is so helpful!
nice explanation bro. thanks!
This is an excellent video
Very insightful thanks!
Great video! Can you do the same skeleton video, but with details that breakdown the internal upgrades? Gears, piston, R hop up, etc.
Thank you for an excellent video!
Thankz a lot for sharing this information its really useful for bigginers
always love taking stuff apart xD but also nice to know some info and what can be the problem when your dubble feeding or others xD thumb up
Thank you a lot for this video !
Much appreciated the demo and breakdown. Learned a new term. AEG. Here its usually "airsoft" but I do have one of those. Dont know what they are actually called as airsoft is a catchall term used for both the gas powered and actual AEG. Hopefully with the proper term I can find them better.
Well THAT was extremely informative ...thanks.
That video is super great! :) Nice pacing for teaching :)
Thanks, this is very informative!
Instruction videos like this are only interesting to those who want to learn something. You cant change a thing as you have done a great job. Thanks so much. When I stop learning then Im dead.
Great video, loving all the info your giving, I'm looking to get into the sport soon and these are the best tutorials i have seen by far.
I live in Carshalton Surrey, any tips for good sites.
