Take your airsoft game to the next level with the ARES Advanced Full Metal AR-308 AEG Rifle with ETU (Model: 308S) — a powerhouse platform designed for serious players who demand realism, reliability, and cutting-edge features. This modern battle rifle replica combines rugged full-metal construction, precision CNC machining, and ARES’ renowned electric fire control system (EFCS) to deliver exceptional performance both on the field and at the range.

Elite Construction & Realistic Design

Built from high-quality aluminum alloy, the AR-308S boasts a durable, full-metal exterior that replicates the weight and feel of a real steel .308 platform. The rifle’s standout bronze finish sets it apart visually, giving it a distinctive tactical aesthetic that matches its battlefield capabilities. Reinforced with steel components—including the selector switch, magazine release, bolt catch, and trigger—this rifle is made to handle the rigors of active gameplay while offering a realistic shooting experience.

The CNC-machined M-LOK handguard offers multiple mounting points at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, as well as a bottom partial 20mm RIS section, allowing you to customize your loadout with grips, lights, and other accessories. A full-length 20mm top rail gives you ample room for optics, backup sights, and other mission-critical attachments.

Performance-Driven Internals

At the heart of the AR-308S is the ARES EFCS Version 2 programmable gearbox, complete with their Rapid Velocity Tuning System (RVTS). This feature allows for easier spring swaps without full disassembly, making it easier to fine-tune your FPS for different field limits. The one-piece cylinder improves compression and shot consistency, ensuring stable velocity across all your engagements.

With a muzzle velocity in the range of 390–400 FPS, this rifle is ideal for outdoor engagements, offering long-range accuracy and high-impact shots. The rifle uses an ARES High Torque Long Type motor, delivering snappy trigger response and excellent rate of fire when paired with a recommended 11.1v LiPo battery (wired to the rear with a Deans connector for better efficiency).

User-Friendly Features & Tactical Flexibility

Designed for both right- and left-handed shooters, the AR-308S includes fully ambidextrous controls—selector switch, bolt release, and magazine release—for maximum versatility in high-stress scenarios. QD sling mounts located on the stock and handguard ensure convenient carry options, whether you're running a single- or two-point sling.

The adjustable Amoeba Pro stock enhances ergonomics and battery storage space while maintaining a sleek profile. Whether you're laying down fire from a distance or maneuvering in tight environments, this stock helps keep you agile and well-prepared.

The AR-308S comes with a 130-round mid-cap magazine that fits all ARES SR25/M110-style AEGs. It also includes a durable tactical hard case, perfect for secure storage and transport between games or events.
