The Scorpion EVO is already one of the better CQB bodies in airsoft: short, light, and it feeds. What the HPA version changes is everything behind the magazine. Gas does not care how cold the hall is, so the first shot of the day and the last one land at the same velocity.
Fire control sits on the gun rather than in your pocket. A four-position selector gives you single, burst and full auto, the burst length is programmable from two to seven rounds, and the rate of fire sets anywhere between 15 and 30 rounds a second. No phone, no pairing, nothing to go flat at the wrong moment beyond the small battery the board needs.
One thing to be clear about before you buy: the tank and the regulator are not in the box. ASG say so plainly, and it is the part people underestimate. Budget for both, and for a line, because the air connection is in the grip.
What you need to run it

| Regulator | Not included and required — see HPA regulators |
| Air line | Grip-mounted, so you need a line to reach it — see HPA lines |
| Battery | The ECU needs one. ASG recommend a 7.4V 250mAh 20C LiPo |
| Magazines | ASG EVO 75-round mid-caps — the same ones the AEG EVO takes |

Good to know
The bolt catch behaves like the AEG. Run a magazine dry and the gun stops; seat a fresh one and you have to hit the catch before it will fire again. People either love that or disable it, and on this generation it stays on.
It folds to 425mm, which is genuinely small for a full-power SMG, and at 1.9kg it is light enough that the tank on your back is the heavier half of the setup.
Frequently asked questions
What else do I need before I can use it? A tank, a regulator and a line. ASG do not supply the tank or the regulator, and the air connection is in the grip so the line has to reach there.
Is there an app for it? No. Everything is set on the gun itself, through the four-position selector and the ECU board, so there is nothing to pair and nothing that needs a phone on a game day.
Which magazines does it take? ASG EVO 75-round mid-caps, the same pattern as the AEG. Empty-mag detection and the bolt catch both work with them.
Does it need a battery? Yes. The ECU board runs off one, and ASG recommend a 7.4V 250mAh 20C LiPo. It is small and it is not the thing that powers the shot.
How hard does it hit as supplied? 1.44 joules, which is 393.7 fps on 0.20g. Velocity is quoted across a 95 to 130 m/s range, so there is room to set it to a site limit.
