Partial data ARES AEG (electric)
ARES VZ58 LONG, AEG: 1.56 J, 410 FPS, 160 rounds. Full specs from the official source, with FPS for every BB weight.
Power
Above Italy's 1 J limit
Italian shops sell versions tuned below 1 J: ask the shop which version they ship.
Energy computed from the velocity with 0.20 g BBs, the standard weight manufacturers and shops use to measure FPS.
The main source does not give the velocity: FPS taken from the page of the same model on www.redwolfairsoft.com.
For information only, based on the source's data for this version. Not legal advice: always check current local law and the version the shop sells.

|---|---|---|
| 0.20 g | 410 | 125 |
| 0.25 g | 367 | 112 |
| 0.28 g | 347 | 106 |
| 0.30 g | 335 | 102 |
| 0.32 g | 324 | 99 |
| 0.36 g | 306 | 93 |
| 0.40 g | 290 | 88 |
