Description
Tokyo Marui M4 Patriot AEG (High Cycle – Black)
The Tokyo Marui M4 Patriot High Cycle is a compact, stockless M4-style electric rifle in black, built for high rate of fire close-quarters play. The Patriot concept strips the M4 back to its upper and lower receivers with no buttstock, creating a very short, quick-handling replica, and the High Cycle version is set up by Tokyo Marui to fire faster than its standard AEGs.
Tokyo Marui is the Japanese manufacturer whose AEG designs underpin much of the airsoft world, and its replicas are known for accuracy, consistency and reliability straight out of the box. The Patriot HC suits CQB players, back-up gun users and anyone who wants a light, eye-catching M4 that is easy to carry and fast to bring into action.
What’s in the box
- Tokyo Marui M4 Patriot High Cycle
- 190-round high-capacity magazine (listed with it)
Compatibility
The Patriot takes Tokyo Marui-standard M4 AEG magazines; fit varies a little between other brands, so test a spare before buying several. The top and side rails take standard 20mm accessories, and the muzzle accepts 14mm CCW devices.
Battery space in the front end is limited, so check size and connector against the manual before buying a battery. High Cycle gearboxes are tuned to their recommended power source, so check with us before fitting upgrades.
Care and maintenance
Take the battery out after every game and store it separately at a sensible storage charge, rather than leaving it connected inside the replica. Charge LiPo batteries with a proper balance charger, keep them in a LiPo-safe bag and never leave them charging unattended; NiMH packs should be charged with a smart charger that stops when the pack is full.
Run a cleaning rod with a lightly dampened patch through the inner barrel from time to time to clear dirt and residue, which keeps the hop-up consistent. Use good-quality seamless BBs, never reuse BBs that have been on the ground, and wipe the outside over after damp or muddy games. Leave gearbox work, shimming and spring changes to a competent technician.
High Cycle replicas work their internals hard, so let the replica rest between long full-auto strings and have it checked by a technician if the cycle sounds laboured or uneven.
Who is it for?
The Tokyo Marui M4 Patriot High Cycle is for CQB players and collectors who want a compact, fast-firing M4 with Marui’s reputation for consistency, whether as a main gun indoors or a back-up that is easy to carry.
Please note: A battery, charger and BBs are not listed as included. Always wear suitable eye protection, and full-face protection where your site requires it, when using or testing any airsoft replica.
