Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI “Featherweight” Airsoft Machine Gun (Model: M249 E2 / 400 FPS / Performance Package)

Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI “Featherweight” Airsoft Machine Gun (Performance Package)

Dominate the battlefield with the Cybergun FN Licensed M249 MINIMI “Featherweight” Airsoft Machine Gun — a lightweight powerhouse built for serious support gunners who want LMG firepower without the bulk. Officially licensed by FN Herstal, this M249 E2 variant delivers authentic detail, high-end performance, and rugged durability, all while weighing nearly half as much as traditional full-metal M249 platforms.

At just 8.15 lbs (3.7 kg), this “Featherweight” version is crafted with a fiber-reinforced nylon polymer receiver, handguard, stock, top cover, and integrated bipod, providing strength and rigidity while shedding unnecessary weight. It’s designed to be combat-tough and mobile, giving players the speed and stamina to stay in the fight longer, especially during long ops and objective-based skirmishes.

Under the hood, this airsoft machine gun is anything but light. It features a tricked-out, fully upgraded Version 2 gearbox that’s lipo-ready and built for high performance. The gearbox includes:

• Aluminum alloy shell with 8mm metal bushings

• Sintered steel 18:1 gear set with plastic delayer chip

• High-compression polycarbonate piston and piston head

• Aluminum cylinder and polycarbonate cylinder head

• Quick-change spring guide

• Lightweight polycarbonate nozzle and tappet plate

This advanced setup delivers a reliable 380–400 FPS, with smooth, consistent cycling and full-auto firepower that’s perfect for suppressive roles.

Unlike traditional M249 platforms that are limited to box mags, the Cybergun M249 MINIMI is M4/M16 magazine compatible, meaning you can use your existing mags without modification. Included is a 300-round M4-style AEG magazine, and this gun also comes with a 1500-round electric “sack” mag activated by a pressure switch — providing a great balance between capacity and profile.

This model also features a rotary-style adjustable hop-up, allowing for precise tuning of your BB flight path and giving you an edge in long-range engagements. Additionally, the Performance Package includes a Lambda precision inner barrel pre-installed, boosting accuracy, shot-to-shot consistency, and effective range right out of the box.

The outer barrel is full aluminum alloy, complete with a durable locking mechanism for added realism and stability. It maintains the iconic silhouette of the real FN MINIMI while offering practical features for modern airsoft gameplay.
