Very quiet if shimmed correctly.

I wanted to try the Perun V3 because I've heard many positive reviews and opinions on it. For context, I installed this into a Classic Army UMP-45 and combined it with a 13:1 SSG and a ZCI 22TPA motor. I have to say that the V3 is solid. There's a lot to like about this. You get:
- Very consistent precocking.
- Ability to toggle off active braking.
- Can decompress your spring with holding the trigger down on semi-auto.
- Reliable trigger sensitivity calibration due to using a magnet instead of a button. On a V3 gearbox, this is fantastic because it allows for a hair trigger sensitivity even with the two-piece trigger. I have mine set to 3 which is in the middle and it's already *very* sensitive with about 2mm of pull. At a setting of 5, the pull was about 0.7mm which is crazy short. This part will probably depend on the specs of your gun's trigger. The UMP-45 trigger is basically like a G36 although not 100% the same. They're interchangeable, but the UMP trigger is slightly longer.
- I was able to fit the selector sensor insert into a UMP-45 selector plate with only very minor modification. All I needed to do was extend the cutout towards the front of the gearbox. The UMP-45 selector plate is close to a G36, although not quite. Your model will vary and the manual tells you this.
- Thin wire makes it very easy to maneuver into a receiver.
- Very low amp draw when I hooked it up to a volt meter. It doesn't seem to have any issues in that regard.
- Can also run a 14.8v LiPo, but that's totally unnecessary unless you want to have some fun. I never run more than a 11.1v anyway.
The functionality of the Perun V3 is more than worth a 5-star in my opinion. Realistically, that's how we should be reviewing something like. However, there are a few things I don't like and it all comes down to installation:
- While the wiring for the V3 is universal, it requires soldering the gate wire to the positive terminal on the battery. It's easy to do and I simply soldered the gate wire to the battery connector itself, but I don't understand why it wouldn't come attached if the V2 is a complete and doesn't require soldering. The universal wiring is actually nearly a perfect length to be front-wired or rear-wired. I tried both in my receiver and it worked flawlessly, so it's a bit strange to me.
- The wire itself is very soft and can get squished and nicked very easily. It's like G&P 'noodle wire' so to speak, but it being on the outside of the V3 gearbox means that you need to be careful.
- The selector sensor system works fine, but it requires you to manually guess and check the correct positions. At the same pricepoint, Gate Asters allow you to calibrate this with the GCS App. But the positive to the Perun is you actually can assemble your whole gearbox and do the selector calibration after you're done. Your gun can also fire on semi auto without a selector plate, so it gives you a baseline.
Alright, so that's a lot to cram into a review, but I try to give as valuable of information as I can. Overall, the Perun V3 is excellent and I'm really liking it. Most of my experience with ETUs comes from Gate, T238, and the older BTC models. But this made a great first impression with me. It gives me the same options for programming and the consistency I'd expect out of an ETU at this price point. I'd consider another one for something like an AK or give the V2 a shot.
We are currently pushing a NGRS build very hard. The retro arms tappet is the only thing on the market that can handle the abuse. Highly recommend this to anyone. Also, Brill armory is awesome for any Airsoft need. Best company around for Airsoft.

Fits in my De n4 perfect. Functions as should and is built really well from what I can see/feel.
I would recommend replacing your De n4 charging handle as it is made of pot metal and will break.
In my opinion its better than gate with the hall effect nagnets
Very helpful, easy to deal with and fast shipping. Could not ask for better.
I've used these with .32s in several different platforms, and they work super well. Ability to hop without tanking the fps is great, and so is the precision
This thing is beautifully crafted. Only issue I ran into was that you have to have the CNC upgraded hop up before installation. Aside from that though. Absolute must get
These guys a lighttight fast with their shipping. The ASA motor magnets will pull a tool from about 3 inches away. Significantly increased trigger response and RPS over the stock motor. Stupid easy upgrade. Drop it in and adjust motor height and go play!
Mostly only interested in the prices and the compatible mounting with the fps piston.
The main O-ring doesn't seal at all. Replaced with Viton O-ring and it works properly. The front O-ring drags really bad and doesn't aid in sealing so I removed it
Leviathan V2 best mosfet IMO
Also wanted to make a note that Brill Armory is #1 when it comes to prompt shipping and great customer service.
Seems really good. Took some fanagling to get right,but over all pretty good.
Tried this bucking out of curiosity and it did not disappoint! The performance exceeds the 4UAD Quantum bucking and Maple Leaf Macaron 70 degree at 110ft. I tested with both a maple leaf omega nub and the infinity nub. The difference was pretty minimal but the infinity nub was noticeably better since it's supposed to be paired with it.

The difference between the two was minimal, though the Infinity nub performed noticeably better. Alignment is critical, as noted by another reviewer. If the bucking is not properly aligned with the nub, shots will curve to the left or right pretty drastically.

Lonex nozzles are great and provide a terrific air seal, but the actual measured length on this nozzle is 21.15mm, not the advertised 21mm.
Fast delivery and fit item for TM NGRS MP5.
Vfc Avalon 416 spring guide gave out as expected. These are made 💯 better than the stock ones, with reinforced ears, which is what sheared off the stock one.
Also, being made in Italy is a great sign of a quality made product just saying. So, all in all, they fit great, they are built great, and will more than likely last a long time. I would suggest buying two or more just in case.
These FPS cylinders are the best out there while being cheaper than most.
The bore quality is the best iv seen, while also having ribs for heat dissipation.
Last one I used in a build I gained .2J with just swapping to this cylinder,squeezing out even more efficiency to the system.
Assembled and sealed like a charm; with experience in the bolt-action world, it did drop about a joule, which didn't surprise me too much. The frontmost o-ring is picky with cylinders, and can affect piston speed and cycle time if not careful. The airbrake pin does protrude into the cylinder head quite a bit and does slow it down, so expect a drop in power. Otherwise, does as expected and cuts a lot of the slap sound inside the gearbox.
