LCT LCK12

Brief History

The AK-12 is one of the most recent and unfortunately among the last Russian projects developed by Mikhail Kalashnikov, Vladimir Zlobin, and Sergey Urzhumcev based on the well-known AK platform. The first designs date back to 2011, but production began in 2018 at Izmash (Kalashnikov Concern). The caliber of this weapon is 5.45x39mm and it is designed to offer as many customization options as possible for the modern soldier.

Exterior of the Replica

This airsoft replica is manufactured by LCT and represents the LCK12 model. It is a toy worthy of admiration with exceptional finishes and the quality of materials is outstanding. Notable is the manufacturing and assembly method. The airsoft replica is coated with the specific oil used in machining tools, eliminating the risk of corrosion during transport while also providing an air of authenticity. All components are assembled with precision, eliminating play between parts, and the sensation during operation is that of a solid body without compromises.

The body of the airsoft replica is made from thick steel sheet, riveted. The markings are stamped. The handguard, grip, and stock are made from ABS plastic. The joining parts of the airsoft replica are made from quality steel, contributing to good durability. The stock of the replica is adjustable and also folds to the side, making transport easier.

Interior of the Replica

Inside this replica, the heavy lifting is done by a version 3 metal gearbox, equipped with premium components. The motor of the airsoft replica is of the High Torque type, and the installed spring generates approximately 105-110 m/s using 0.20g BBs. The hop-up chamber is adjustable, and the inner barrel has a diameter of 6.08mm; once the hop-up adjustment is correctly set, the effective range and grouping of the airsoft replica are impressive. The adjustment of the hop-up chamber is inside the ejection port, and to access it, simply operate the fake cocking lever.

Power Supply

The package of the airsoft replica does not include a battery or a battery charger. You can use NIMH batteries of 8.4V or 9.6V in mini stick type or 7.4V or 11.1V LiPo, but also in stick type, which will be mounted inside the stock. To access the space designated for the battery, it is necessary to remove the metal cover. Do not exceed the voltage of 11.1V 20C as the toy may get damaged. Use quality BBs and do not reuse BBs; otherwise, the toy may get damaged.
