This for the LT-15 Series Gen2. Vendor was very fast on processing & shipping, and added "thank you" cards and coupons to my package. Rifle came with one clip, battery pack, charger, 1,000 rounds of quality .22 ammo, and a small iron-on patch for a jacket. Overall, I like this rifle, it feels solid, well weighted – doesn't feel cheap, has realistic details, quality when holding it, and fires well in the very short time I've used it so far. Battery is located in the rear stock, which is great, and the full-auto mode is no short of exhilarating! Decent flip-up iron sights, standard upper & lower mounting rails for future accessories. Full battery-life yet to be tested.Rail/barrel alignment : Took a ton of adjustment on mine to get the iron sights dialed-in, as you can see (pic attached), the amount of left-offset that was needed for mine (you mile may vary). So looking a bit closer at the construction & design, I think free-floating rail might be a contributor to inconsistent and excessive sighting alignment. The rear rail section is well secured by the delta ring, but the front is just slip-fit around the mock suppressor (aka floating), and the problem I'm seeing is that it might be a bit too-loose. That means the forward sight (aka the entire rail) can drift away left-right from the barrel alignment. Okay, so in an attempt to stabilize this area up somewhat, I decided to wedge two rubber foam pieces (see pic) on either sides of the rail. Still free-floating, yet now no left-right slop. Sighting has improved and way more consistent now.Ammo delivery - a slight learning-curve : so I think another reviewer mentioned hearing a spring-breaking sound, followed by not shooting anymore. That might have been simply the ammo-clip unspooling. They way I observe this clip’s design, is that a minimum quantity of BBs are needed to FULLY occupy the clip's feed tube in order to get spring tension to wind-up. If you become one BB short of that (aka shoot that round), the spring will prematurely release inside the clip. That means you are technically out of ammo, even though you still hear ammo rattling around in the clip. In other words, it's simply not possible to ever empty the clip entirely. So, you hear that spring-pop unraveling sound ... it's time to reload and re-spool the clip tension. It's also a good idea to periodically add a few clicks to the spool between shooting, to insure the clip's feed tension is always adequate.Semi-auto "auto" ? : the semi-auto mode sometimes fires in full-auto mode. I experience this often when being intentionally too-soft on trigger-pulls. Yet, if I do very deliberate pulls, it indeed fires one round at a time, consistently. But if I pull too soft and slow, many rounds could get discharged. FWIW, I mainly choose soft-pull when I calibrate sight-in adjustments on a paper target. Again, I know this is airsoft - I'm just use to actual fire arms where one aims-in and slowly draws the trigger for utmost accuracy.Re-assembly woes : the super-short manual does show how to break this thing down for cleaning, but for reassembly, there were some gotcha-moments. So now being the wiser, I can share a few tips . . .1st up, was the thin metal piece in the Hop-Up adjuster window. This simply fell loose onto the floor when I separated the two receivers - my bad. Unnerving, because it's not illustrated in the manual, so it took me a good minute to figure how that goes back in properly. See attached pic of the correct positioning - in case anyone needs a future reference ;)2nd issue, was a point where I could not - for the life of me - fully mate the the upper and lower receivers back together. Something was “catching†at the last 1/4 inch remaining. It turns out, the very tip of the metal barrel gets hung-up and misaligned inside the muzzle/suppressor exit hole. So, as you slide the two receivers together, on that final 1/4 inch you’ll need to insert something (maybe the cleaning rod) down into the exit hole and into the barrel tube to help center the barrel and feed it through, all while sliding the receivers back together - can be a bit tricky, yet won't be done often.Again, it is a decent rifle for its price-point, I'd easily go out for a few rounds of airsoft play with it ... and while it does have some "qwerks", they are easy to overcome as long as you know what they are - and now you do. Have fun !
