Evolution Recon MK18 Mod. 1
Full Metal
The Recon line is engineered to deliver high performance, precision, and absolute reliability. Entirely designed in Italy, the Recon is built for the most demanding players who expect the best from their gear in every game scenario – from CQB to the toughest and most extreme outdoor operations.
The Recon comes equipped with:
-
Aluminum handguard, completely CNC-machined for extreme durability, finished with Duralite™ for enhanced scratch and abrasion resistance.
-
Ergonomic grip and Tool-less Access Grip, TAG system™ for tool-free motor access.
Attention to detail is evident in every component: precision finishes, internal reinforcements, laser markings, steel sling mounts, and integrated flip-up sights. The construction is rock-solid and wobble-free – even after extended use, the Recon will feel as solid as day one.
Professional-grade internals for consistent performance
Under the body, the Recon rifles feature a reinforced aluminum gearbox with 8mm ball bearings, PM steel gears with delayer for high ROF, a high-speed piston with full steel teeth, and a spring guide with forged steel core and bearing. The rotary hop-up system allows precise tuning while maintaining shot-to-shot consistency with any BB weight.
Quick, tool-free access to the motor compartment and easy spring guide extraction without removing the gearbox make future upgrades and customizations effortless.
The 6.01 precision barrel with flared muzzle ensures tight and accurate shots.
A no-compromise magazine
The Recon comes standard with the Matrixx™ 140 BB mid-cap magazine – widely considered one of the best mags on the market. Its dotted texture not only allows full customization but also provides a solid, reliable grip, even with gloves on. The specially designed front section near the mag-well acts as a firm pull point for ultra-fast reloads under stress.
Its tempered steel spring ensures consistent feeding, even with heavy BBs and extremely high ROFs in advanced custom builds.
