- Steel Charging Handle Bars – robust steel components for reliable manual cocking and added durability in the field.

Compatibility & Upgrades
The M249 Para accepts standard P90 AEG magazines; King Arms branded mid-caps and hi-caps are recommended for optimal feeding reliability. The V6 gearbox is field-upgradable with aftermarket springs, pistons, and motor components to increase FPS or refine trigger response. Use 0.20 g, 0.25 g, or 0.28 g BBs depending on your site’s range and weather conditions. The 20mm RIS / RAS rail accepts compatible optics, red-dot sights, and tactical lights. A compatible battery (not included) such as a standard 8.4V or 9.6V NiMh or LiPo will power the AEG; consult compatible batteries to ensure safe charging and storage protocols.
UK Legal & Site Notes
The M249 Para is a Realistic Imitation Firearm (RIF) and is legal to own only with a valid UKARA defence or VCRA exemption. Owners must be 18 or over. A two-tone variant is available if you do not yet hold UKARA membership. Before attending any UK airsoft site, confirm the venue’s FPS / joule limit and chronograph your AEG using the BBs you intend to use in play; most outdoor sites accept 350 FPS with 0.20 g BBs (approximately 1.46 joules), but always verify locally to avoid site bans. The hop-up is user-adjustable, allowing you to optimise performance for your chosen ammunition weight and engagement distance.
