RED STAR CSR-A WYVERNOV AEG BY ECHO1 USA – GEARBOX
What is this? A bullpup AK sniper platform? Yes that is what it is! It has been a while since JAG Precision and ECHO1 USA has released anything new on the market and this looks great for those players that want to stand out and use a Russian type platform.
First question we all ask: Can we upgrade it?
Answer is YES but it is already pre-upgraded to be ready for the field with 450fps out of the box so only a little is needed to max it out. I will link a gearbox video below for the RedStar CSR.

Being that this is not a crowd favorite due to it’s bullpup design and AK themed but for those looking for a compact sniper platform and to be different those players will definitely enjoy this rifle. That’s the best part about the Airsoft Community since everybody can do something that makes them happy and still be a part of something bigger.
