Cybergun (FN Licensed) M249 MINIMI “Featherweight” Airsoft LMG — Para (400 FPS) — Complete Kit with 1500-rd Tan Sack Magazine

Bring true squad-level suppressive power to the field without the fatigue. The Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI “Featherweight” converts the legendary M249 platform into a player-friendly LMG that sacrifices almost none of the performance while shaving serious weight. Built under official FN license and engineered for endurance, this Para variant pairs long-run reliability with user-focused ergonomics — and ships with both a 300-rd M4-style mag and a 1500-rd electric sack magazine for extended play.


Lightweight, durable, combat-ready design

Weighing roughly 8.15 lbs (3.7 kg) without magazine, the Featherweight M249 uses a fiber-reinforced nylon polymer receiver, handguard, top cover, stock, and bipod to cut heft while preserving strength. The result is dramatically improved mobility in CQB and field environments: you get the suppression role without the back-breaking weight of full-metal LMGs. The aluminum barrel assembly and metal locking mechanism retain ruggedness where it matters most.


Out-of-the-box performance & serviceable internals

This M249 ships pre-tuned with a tricked-out Version 2 metal gearbox that’s lipoly-ready and built for fast, dependable cycling. Highlights include:

  • Aluminum alloy gearbox shell and 8mm metal bushings

  • Sintered steel 18:1 gear set for robust torque handling

  • Aluminum cylinder and quick-change spring guide for easy FPS adjustments

  • Polycarbonate piston, tappet plate, nozzle and high-compression piston head for consistent air seal

  • Plastic delayer chip tuned to optimize full-auto cycling

These internals support rapid, reliable fire and sensible upgrade paths when you want to tune performance further.


Feeding & compatibility — ready for many setups

The M249 accepts common M4/M16 AEG style magazines, and this package includes a 300-rd M4 mag for immediate use. For sustained suppression, the included 1500-rd tan “sack” magazine features electric winding with a pressure-switch activation for smooth delivery without bulky box mag weight. The platform is also compatible with most A&K and A&K-clone metal M249 components and drum mags, giving you flexibility to tailor capacity and handling.


Accuracy & adjustment

A rotary dial hop-up provides quick, precise adjustment so you can dial in consistent groups with heavier BBs at distance. The inner barrel and hop-up setup are designed to perform reliably in full-auto engagements, helping you maintain effective suppressive fire on objective-based scenarios.


Realistic ergonomics & field features

  • Para configuration shortens overall length for maneuverability (790mm folded / 930mm extended).

  • Included bipod for stable mounted fire.

  • Folding stock and polymer top cover keep handling intuitive and close-quarters friendly.

  • Uses common 14mm negative thread for muzzle accessories.

  • Nominal FPS: 380–400 (field dependent).


Power & battery

This M249 is LiPo-ready and the gearbox supports a 7.4V LiPo (1500mAh recommended) for reliable sustained fire. Wiring is routed inside the feed tray and uses a small Tamiya connector — choose a battery that balances runtime and desired cyclic rate.
