Arcturus AK12 FE™ Carbine RIS - Black

AK12 FE™ Carbine by Arcturus

The AK12 FE™ by Arcturus is a high-end airsoft rifle from the latest AK12 2024 series, combining modern technology with the updated AK design. Thanks to its precision manufacturing and robust construction, it delivers top-tier performance straight out of the box. The body is made from stamped steel with QPQ surface treatment, ensuring superior durability and longevity. Simply put, it’s a solid piece of steel, far superior to competitor alloy bodies.
Arcturus rifles aren’t just impressive on the outside – the internals are premium as well. The rifle is equipped with an ARC FE electronic unit (ETU), which allows for fire mode customization (Semi, 3rd Burst, Binary, Full Auto), pre-cocking (pre-cocking) for an ultra-fast trigger response, and an active brake, which prevents unwanted piston movement after firing. Additionally, the electronics feature overvoltage protection and a low battery warning.

Internal Components

Inside, you’ll find an upgraded Version 3 gearbox with a quick-change spring system (QSC), allowing for easy power adjustment based on the requirements of your airsoft event. The gearbox is built with CNC-machined steel 18:1 gears and a 24k high-torque neodymium 21TPA motor.
The hop-up system utilizes an ARCTURUS RS™ rotary polymer chamber, ensuring precise hop-up adjustments. The inner 6.03 mm precision barrel is 450 mm long, making it perfect for long-range engagements.

External Build

The rifle’s body is constructed from stamped steel with a QPQ surface treatment, providing protection against corrosion and wear. The classic nylon RIS handguard features CNC-machined RIS side rails. The top cover is also fitted with a RIS rail for mounting optics.
The folding AK12-style tube stock is made of nylon polymer, reducing the overall weight of the rifle while maintaining durability. The package also includes a muzzle brake, which can be easily swapped thanks to the standard 14mm CCW left-hand thread.
