Conceived in the years following the Korean War, the design drew heavily on the German FG 42 for its gas system and the MG 42 for its quick-change barrel concept, blending them into a belt-fed, air-cooled, gas-operated weapon that could serve as a squad automatic weapon, a mounted vehicle gun, and a helicopter door gun. It entered widespread service during the Vietnam War, where its sustained firepower made it a mainstay of infantry squads and special operations teams, even as its roughly 23-pound weight and cumbersome barrel change earned it the affectionate nickname \"The Pig.\" Decades of incremental improvement produced the M60E4 ? also fielded by U.S. Navy special operations as the Mk 43 Mod 0\/1 ? a refined variant engineered by Saco Defense that shed weight through a thinner barrel, added an improved handguard with an integral vertical foregrip, a redesigned lightweight bipod, and enhanced ergonomics for the modern gunner. Chambered for the full-power 7.62mm round and feeding from disintegrating-link belts, the M60 family became one of the most recognizable machine guns in history, its silhouette immortalized across war films and video games as the archetypal American crew-served weapon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003e\u003cu\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eLCT, the Taiwan-based airsoft manufacturer renowned for full-steel, high-durability replicas, brings the iconic M60E4 to the AEG platform with this Steel Version that leans heavily on real-steel construction for authenticity and heft. Long respected in the airsoft community for building guns that closely mirror their real-steel counterparts in material and weight, LCT has applied that philosophy to the M60E4, a light machine gun whose external identity is defined by its steel makeup. This AEG translates the Mk 43\/M60E4 profile into a battery-powered platform, capturing the silhouette of the Navy SEALs' favored GPMG while remaining skirmish-practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe externals are dominated by steel: a steel 355mm outer barrel is finished with a steel 67mm muzzle brake on a 14mm CCW thread, while the steel receiver forms the gun's structural core and the steel top cover ? steel at the front, polymer at the rear ? opens to reveal battery storage inside the stock. The polymer handguard carries an integrated foregrip at its forward end for a secure hold during sustained fire, and the polymer buttstock terminates in a steel hinged shoulder rest that folds for compact carry. Supporting the gun is a steel hanger assembly and a steel 3-position bipod that adjusts to multiple leg angles for stable prone or supported shooting. A polymer drum magazine holds up to 3000 6mm BBs and is powered by 4x AA batteries for reliable feeding, while the steel carrying handle is wrapped in a rubber anti-scratch layer molded with finger contours for protected, positive carry. Detailing continues with a steel dummy gas system beneath the barrel, a steel fixed front sight paired with a steel flip-up adjustable rear sight, a steel sling swivel set between the handguard and barrel, a steel trigger within a metal trigger guard, and a steel fire selector ? a near-all-steel control group that matches the gun's rugged character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInternally, the M60E4 runs a reinforced AEG gearbox built for the demands of an LMG. A 455mm inner barrel aligns with the outer for consistent accuracy, working with an adjustable hop-up chamber to tune trajectory. The gearbox uses 8mm bushings\/bearings for durability, a chrome-plated brass cylinder, CNC aluminum alloy cylinder head, piston head, and hop-up chamber, and a polycarbonate piston with steel teeth riding on a steel ball-bearing spring guide. A high-torque 26700rpm motor drives the system, and a quick-detach spring change mechanism lets the user swap the main spring through the gearbox without a full teardown to meet different field power limits. Power is supplied by a 7.4V or 11.1V 20C Li-Po battery stowed inside the stock after opening the top cover, keeping the battery hidden within the gun's profile. The combination of LCT's steel construction, the massive 3000-round drum, and a serviceable high-performance gearbox makes this M60E4 a formidable support-gun platform for players who want the look and presence of a real M60 without sacrificing AEG convenience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel 355mm outer barrel paired with a steel 67mm muzzle brake on a 14mm CCW thread, delivering the authentic long M60E4 profile and a functional muzzle for tracer or suppressor fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePolymer handguard featuring an integrated foregrip at its forward section, providing a secure, ready-made grip for controlling the light machine gun during sustained fire\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel receiver forming the structural backbone of the gun, giving the replica the weight, durability, and authentic stamping character expected of an LCT steel build\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePolymer pistol grip shaped for a stable hold, balancing the gun's weight distribution and reducing fatigue during extended carrying and firing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePolymer buttstock capped with a steel hinged shoulder rest, allowing the stock to fold or adjust against the shoulder for comfortable shouldering and compact storage\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel top cover with a steel front half transitioning to a polymer rear half, opening to grant battery access while keeping the upper receiver rigid and true to the M60 layout\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel hanger assembly and steel 3-position bipod, providing a robust forward support that adjusts to multiple leg angles for stable firing from prone or supported positions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePolymer drum magazine with a massive 3000-round 6mm BB capacity, powered by 4x AA batteries for reliable feeding without the weight of a metal drum\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel carrying handle wrapped in a rubber anti-scratch protective layer molded with finger contours, protecting the finish and improving grip when hauling the gun\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel dummy gas system mounted beneath the barrel, replicating the M60E4's distinctive underside profile for visual authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel fixed front sight paired with a steel flip-up adjustable rear sight, offering a robust primary sighting setup that can be flipped for optics co-witness or cleared from the picture\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel sling swivel positioned between the handguard and barrel, giving a solid attachment point for sling carry of the heavy LMG\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSteel trigger housed within a metal trigger guard alongside a steel fire selector, presenting durable, authentic controls built to withstand field use\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e455mm inner barrel matched to the 355mm outer for accurate shot placement, paired with an adjustable hop-up unit for tuning range and trajectory\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eReinforced internals featuring 8mm bushings\/bearings, a chrome-plated brass cylinder, CNC aluminum alloy cylinder head, piston head, and hop-up chamber, plus a polycarbonate piston with steel teeth and a steel ball-bearing spring guide for dependable AEG cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-torque 26700rpm motor driving a quick-detach spring change system, letting the user swap the main spring through the gearbox without full disassembly to tune muzzle energy for different field limits\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LCT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49809914659044,"sku":"LCT-M60E4-AEG-ST","price":919.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/1325\/2580\/files\/LCT-M60E4-AEG-ST-cover.jpg?v=1788760778","url":"https:\/\/www.ehobbyasia.com\/ko\/products\/lct-m60e4-airsoft-aeg-light-machine-gun-steel-version","provider":"eHobbyAsia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
