ARES/EMG Helios EV01 Bolt Action Sniper Rifle in Urban Grey
Key Features
- Inspired by the classic M40 chassis, this EV01 stands out with modern touches and built on the enduring ARES Striker platform
- Durable hybrid build: lightweight polymer stock with a metal receiver, bolt, and fluted outer barrel—strikes the balance between robustness and carry comfort
- Compact Striker-style bolt, dubbed the “Compact Power Bolt,” delivers full power with a noticeably shorter bolt pull
- User‑centric safety features include an ambidextrous magazine release, a trigger‑guard safety bar (let your finger rest on the trigger), and a loaded chamber indicator
- Tool‑free adjustments: hop-up and internal access via hex keys conveniently stored in the pistol grip
- Customization‑ready: fluted barrel, metal 20 mm top rail for optics, and compatibility with AEG springs and quick-disconnect power tuning allow versatile performance tuning
- Comes with a direct‑feed 55‑round magazine—a significant ammo capacity for prolonged field use
- Sniper-worthy performance: stock FPS rated between ~415–420 fps using 0.20 g BBs; weighs ~2.61 kg and measures ~1085 mm in length
Take the legacy forward—bolt‑action precision with modern perks and upgraded fire control.
Description.
Built for snipers who love classic styling but want modern ergonomics and adaptability, the EMG Helios EV01 (Urban Grey) brings the best of both worlds. Inspired by the legendary M40 chassis and refined through ARES’s Striker DNA, it balances solidity and ergonomics like a pro.
That smooth “compact power bolt” gives you power without long pump drills—faster second shots, less downtime. The trigger‑guard safety lets you stay ready without risking misfires, and the loaded‑chamber indicator keeps you field‑smart. Storage of essential tools right in the grip? That’s clean, thoughtful design.
Customization isn’t an afterthought. The fluted barrel looks sharp and sheds weight, the 20 mm rail lets you run a scope or offset optic, and the spring/Power tuning system means this rifle can adapt to your field’s chrono rules or your personal style. That 55‑round magazine ensures you aren’t reloading on the fly—and the ambidextrous release keeps both lefties and righties in rhythm.
Out of the box, it’s sound—precision and usability with solid FPS and a respectable build weight under 2.7 kg. Whether you’re starting with bolt action or building a dedicated DMR, the Helios EV01 gives you head start and wiggle room to upgrade over time.
Other Great Features are,
- Harris‑style bipod mount ready—steady shots, fast setup.
- Safety‑drop tested for real‑field toughness.
- Compatible with existing STRIKER parts—upgrade paths are plentiful.
In the box:
- EMG Helios EV01 Bolt‑Action Sniper Rifle (Urban Grey)
- 55‑round direct‑feed magazine
- Cleaning rod, Allen keys, and instruction manual
