Everything You Need to Start!

Get started in airsoft the right way. Our starter kits set you up with all the equipment you will need to use your airsoft gun. Whether it is just to shoot in the backyard or to go compete at your local airsoft field, we’ve got you covered. The basic kit takes the fuss out of looking around for every individual piece of equipment required to operate an airsoft gun by getting you a package that includes the correct, high quality BB’s, a high quality battery, and smart charger. The complete kit adds high quality ANSI-rated goggles for eye protection, a hybrid steel and nylon mesh mask for lower face protection, and a discrete nylon padded gun case to responsibly transport your airsoft gun. If you are brand new and starting out or are buying this as a gift, all these items are essential to not only operating the airsoft gun but also to use it safely.

Q&A:

Q: What kind of battery do I need?

A: With the kit, we will preselect the appropriate battery that fits your gun. Airsoft guns come in all shapes and sizes and so do the batteries, making it a little bit tougher to figure out which battery you need. We’ll take care of that for you in both the Basic and Complete Kits. You will start out with a NiMh style battery which is the safest and easiest to use for beginners.

Q: What kind of BB’s should I get?

A: In our kit you will be supplied with 2500 rounds of high quality precision airsoft BBs. Using only high quality BBs ensures that your gun does not jam and break. We will select the best of what we have available for you to use. Please use high quality ammo that you can only get from a dedicated airsoft store.

Q: How long do I charge the battery?

A: With the provided smart charger, it is normally going to take about 2-3 hours to fully charge. Plug in your battery and wait for a green light and you are all set. Do not ever leave your charger and battery plugged in and unattended. Typically some low quality chargers will do the job in about 5-6 hours but require you to time it yourself and unplug when you think your battery is done. We highly discourage using cheap chargers out of the box for beginners.

Q: What type of warranty is offered on this airsoft gun?

A: Fox Airsoft offers our 30/30 warranty and the manufacturer may offer their own separate warranty as well. The Fox Airsoft 30/30 warranty covers manufacturer defects and performance issues out of the box. Airsoft gear is personal equipment so once you start using the rifle it becomes your own equipment and it cannot be exchanged or returned. The warranty is void if the product has been modified, abused, or the orange tip has been removed. If you should encounter an issue with your airsoft gun out of the box, please reach out to us so that we may help and resist the urge to take apart the gun. If you decide that you want to return the gun for a full credit or refund, the gun must be brand new, unfired, unused, unopened, unmodified, with the orange tip intact for us to accept it back. If any of these conditions are not met we reserve the right to refuse returns or may issue a restocking fee.

Q: What comes included in the complete starter kit for the Lancer Tactical M4 Mk18 Mod 0 Gen 2?

A: The complete starter kit comes with the Lancer Tactical M4 Mk18 Mod 0 Gen 2 airsoft gun, a 300 Rd. High Capacity Magazine, removable vertical grip, installed rail covers, a 9.6v 1600 mAh Butterfly Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) Battery, a standard wall charger with an output of DC 9.6v 250mA, a 9.6 Volt Enhanced Airsoft battery, 2500-count high-quality BB’s, an Auto-Stop Smart Charger, a hybrid steel mesh mask, full-seal ANSI rated goggles, and a padded nylon gun case.

Q: How does the basic starter kit differ from the complete starter kit?

A: The basic starter kit includes the same gun, magazine, vertical grip, rail covers, battery, standard wall charger, enhanced battery, high-quality BB’s, and auto-stop smart charger as the complete kit. The primary difference is that the basic kit does not come with the hybrid steel mesh mask, ANSI rated goggles, or padded nylon gun case.

Q: What are the notable features of the Lancer Tactical M4 Mk18 Mod 0 Gen 2?

A: The gun has a quick-change version 2 gearbox, a nylon fiber body and outer barrel, a high-capacity metal magazine, a rail interface system, a removable plastic rear sight, a 6.03mm tight bore barrel, a metal single-point sling adapter, 8mm metal bushings, a long type torque motor, a ported piston head, and a one-piece rotary hop-up.

Q: Can you provide some technical specifications of this airsoft gun?

A:  It has a muzzle velocity of 370-390 FPS with .20 gram BB's. Available colors are black and tan. It uses a 9.6v Nunchuck Battery with a Mini Tamiya battery connector. The magazine can hold 300 rounds. The gearbox is version 2, and the motor is long type. The barrel diameter is 6.03mm, its length is 275mm, and it has a 14mm negative barrel thread.

About the Lancer Tactical M4 Mk18 Mod 0 Gen 2 AEG Rifle:

The Lancer Tactical Gen 2 series of M4 style guns is a great place for any beginner to start. All Gen 2 guns feature a very durable nylon fiber body that is going to hold up to the rigors of airsoft skirmishes while keeping the weight and overall cost of the gun down. Inside features a version 2 gearbox which is a common style of gearbox with a ton of upgrade and repair parts available. The gearbox has a quick-change spring guide which allows you to swap springs and manipulate the velocity that the gun outputs. This is handy if you plan to go from being set up for outdoor fields to go play at an indoor field. Designed for both novice and seasoned airsoft players, the Mk18 Gen 2 strikes a balance between realism, durability, and performance, ensuring an unparalleled airsoft experience.

On the performance front, the Mk18 Gen 2 packs quite a punch. Its 6.03mm tight bore barrel is designed for precise shots, ensuring players don’t waste ammunition on missed targets, which is already an upgrade over many stock barrels. However, players desiring even better accuracy or a different barrel length (to change the weapon's profile or range) can easily swap this out for another aftermarket barrel. The 9.6v 1600 mAh Butterfly NiMH Battery is reliable, offering consistent power for prolonged skirmishes. Enhanced firing rates are possible thanks to the long type torque motor, ensuring players can maintain the upper hand during intense exchanges. Players looking to increase rate of fire or trigger response can opt for LiPo batteries or even consider upgrading the electrical wiring to a low-resistance variant and add a MOSFET to handle the increased electrical demands. Additionally, the gun's rotary hop-up and ported piston head further refine the firing consistency and accuracy.

Usability is another area where the Mk18 Gen 2 shines. Its ergonomic design, complete with a removable vertical grip, ensures comfort during play. The adjustable length caters to players of various builds, and the removable rear sight provides added flexibility for those who might prefer custom sighting options. With the addition of a metal single-point sling adapter, carrying the Mk18 becomes a breeze, especially during longer matches.

The M4 Mk18 is a short version of the M4 SOPMOD designed for CQB (close quarters battle). Where you trade off in range due to having a shorter barrel, you gain in mobility as short guns are very easy to maneuver quickly. A popular addition to the Mk18 (pronounced Mark 18) is a suppressor. The added length puts you at the same size as an M4 SOPMOD. 

The M4 Mk18 comes equipped with a quick-change version 2 gearbox. This is one of the most commonly used and versatile gearboxes in airsoft. Its popularity means there's a plethora of aftermarket parts available, from upgraded gears to high-speed motors and improved piston setups. This allows for both performance enhancements and easier maintenance.
