Ok, to start things off, I am not including the MP7 and Mac10 in this FAQ, because personally, I don't think that they belong in the Automatic Electric Pistol category, they are more of a low FPS AEG.

AEP stands for Automatic Electric Pistol.

The current AEPs in production are the TM G18c, TM USP, TM M93r, CYMA G18c, DE M92 and the DE USP.

AEPs are a good cold weather alternative to GBBs, and they don't require you to keep buying gas.

AEPs have low power (220 FPS tops) unless upgraded. However, because they have an excellent hop up unit, they achieve ranges of 120 feet. Fully upgraded, an AEP will shoot about 250 FPS with a maximum range of 130 feet.

Read this for the performace of an upgraded AEP:

The cheapest place I could find to get either of the Tokyo Marui AEPs was: http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Home

Takedown Guides

Here is a guide for taking a TM G18c apart. It will also work for the CYMA G18c clone:

I am unable to find a take-down guide for the USP. If anyone can, please PM me and I will add it to this post.

One more thing I thought was worth mentioning about AEPs that may help some new AEP users. During the break in period, my TM G18c would make a dull thumping noise and the bb would fly about 20 feet forwards and drop. This was because the hop up wasn't quite broken in yet. If you have this problem, try firing about 500-1,000 shots through your gun and it should fix it.

This is my first FAQ, so any feedback and advice would be appreciated.
