All references, photos and video claiming that any item in this review/video looks like a Glock or is a Replica of a Glock in any way shape or form have been removed from this post as requested by Glock"Renzulli Law Firm"

Type: Airsoft GBB Pistol.
Manufacturer: WE.
Model: G18C.
Materials: Metal & plastic.
Weight: 1.7 pounds (776 Grams).
Barrel: 4.5 inches, smooth bore.
Propulsion: (GBB) Gas Blowback.
Action: Semi & full auto.
Ammunition Type: Airsoft 6mm Plastic BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 25 rounds.
FPS: Up-to 380 with longer barrel attached.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the WE G18C is very nice and light since the blowback action does most of the work pre-cocking the action. There is a built in and working trigger safety like you would find on a real steel NAME REMOVED with about a quarter inch of take-up leading to a very light and crisp release.

Accuracy: Out of the Box the WE G18C shot great rather well for me when I did my pretest from the 20 foot mark, I found the WE G18C was dialed in pretty decent and shot very close to the bulls eye, maybe a hair to the left which is good since the sights are non adjustable. I shot a very respectable 5 shot 1.5 inch group in semi auto which opened up a great deal when I shot the remaining 15 rounds but at least they all seemed to stay pretty much on the paper which is not bad considering how much this gun jumps around in full auto.

Build Quality: The WE G18C Airsoft seems to be well made, and you will find lots of metal parts where they need to be, again similar as what you would find in a real NAME REMOVED. Fit and finish is nice but I did have an issue with the gas tube when I first got mine, it broke rendering the gun inoperable, a quick swap out with a new gas tube and all is well and so far after a number of magazine worth of shots the WE G18C is still working well and the new gas tube is holding up.

Realism: WE has taken some liberty with the markings on their WE G 18C copy, they are similar to what you would find on a real NAME REMOVED but not actually the same, as longs as you don't look too closely you will most likely be fooled into believing it's a licensed NAME REMOVED! As for how the WE G18C is built and how it operates, you will find it's a dead ringer to a real steel NAME RMOVED and even breaks down exactly the same.

Pros:

  • It's a NAME REMOVED Replica!
  • Lots of metal in this gun similar to a real NAME REMOVED.
  • Kind of licensed similar to a NAME REMOVED.
  • Semi auto & full auto selectable :)
  • Very solid blowback kick.
  • Field strips just like a NAME REMOVED.
  • Very good accuracy and power even with the shorter barrel installed
  • Comes with two barrels, one for use with the suppressor to increase fps for Canadian import.

Cons:

  • No real sight adjustments.
  • Had a problem with the Gas Tube cracking almost right out of the box.

Comments:
I have heard many people say they love WE products and then there are some that claim they are not all that well made! Other than my issue with the cracked gas tube, my WE G18C is holding up well and is working nicely, I think some earlier WE products lacked some refinement which may have led to problems but from what I have heard as of late, WE has stepped things up and is making a better product these days. My WE AK74UN is a testament to this as it is built like a tank and has tons of real stamped steel all throughout. Getting back to the WE G18C Airsoft GBB, it's really fun to shoot with it's amazing blowback and for a GBB pistol it shoots pretty hard and finds the target with easy.

WE AK74UN and WE G18C GBB Airsoft Gun Update Video

3 Comments

I have a couple of guns I wanted to share with you all and no we do not sell them at this point in time and I can not say if we will or not down the road.

There is just no way we can carry every brand of gun and every gun from every brand, that said I still sometimes have my eye on a gun and will pick it up even if I have to pay full retail juts so I can add it to my collection and also do a review for all of you.

Photo of WE G18C Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm" 

Today I showcase two Gas Blowback Airsoft guns from WE. I have been wanting to get an AK variant of some sort since there was a big whole in my collection after the RCMP came into my house and took my scary AK BB gun away. And if for some reason you feel this "again" legally imported through the CBSA non convertible airgun is in some way a concern, please feel free to come on over and have a good look, no SWAT team necessary this time. I am just around the corner from the police station and I make a good cup of coffee!

Getting back to this update, the other WE Airsoft gun is the WE G18C which like the WE AK74UN, also has semi and full auto select-ability. Both guns have excellent blowback kick with the AK74UN having a full travel blot which kicks like a mule and has a slower full auto cycle rate much like a real AK47.

Both guns have metal parts where you would find them on the real steel versions while the AK even goes so far to have actual stamped steel all over just like you would find on an AK.

I will be doing full reviews for both these WE GBB Airsoft guns so stay posted for those video reviews, in the meantime you can watch my Update Video showcasing both these WE Airsoft guns.

Umarex - KWA HK MP7 GBB Airsoft PDW Field Test Shooting Review

2 Comments

The rainy weather let up today so I grabbed up my Umarex - KWA MP7 Blowback Airsoft PDW and put it through its paces today. I was a bit surprised that my groupings from 30 feet away shooting from a semi-rested position where a bit spread out, mostly top to bottom. Perhaps the hop up was effecting the MP7? The good news is that shooting in full auto did not seem to make things any worse :) I was using .25 gram BB's for the accuracy test.

As for the Chronograph portion of this field test shooting review, the Umarex - KWA MP7 Blowback Airsoft Machine Pistol shot a bit higher than claimed at just over 400 fps using .20 gram BB's with Propane Gas. I had no problems shooting a full magazine of 40 rounds with a full gas fill up and the cycle rate stayed nice and high with very little cool down effect.

I really enjoyed shooting the Umarex - KWA MP7 Blowback Airsoft PDW, it has a nice sound with just the right amount of blowback to give it a good feel without throwing off the sights, the trigger was very light and responsive and I ended up preferring to use the pop up sights over the pistol sights as I was shooting mostly with the stock and fore grip open. Those Cans never had a chance!

All in all the Umarex - KWA MP7 Blowback Airsoft PDW is one of the coolest compact and ultra modern Airsoft guns I have had the pleasure to review and test out.

Umarex - KWA HK MP7 A1 GBB Airsoft PDW Table Top Review

1 Comment

Type: Airsoft Machine Pistol (PDW).

Manufacturer:Umarex - KWA.

Model: H&K MP7 A1.

Materials: Metal & plastic.

Weight: 4 pounds, 7 ounces (2130 grams).

Barrel: 6.3 inches, smooth bore.

Propulsion: GBB - Gas Blowback.

Action: Semi-full auto selectable SAO.

Ammunition Type: Airsoft 6mm Plastic BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 40 rounds.

FPS: 370.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 is single action only as the charging handle has to be pulled back to open and release the bolt for the first shot fired. There is a trigger safety that must be engaged to fire, but it is not noticeable when shooting this Airsoft PDW. There is a short take-up and then a nice light release and short reset.

Accuracy: I was able to get decent accuracy in both semi auto and full auto burst with my H&K MP7 due to the mild to medium blowback. I would say I shot somewhere in the 2-3 spread with my 10 shot grouping from 20 feet out. When I do my full Field Test Shooting Review I will take it back a bit further and shoot form 30 feet out. I did get a bit higher then claimed fps right up into the 400 fps range when testing the Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 on my Chronograph.

Build Quality: The Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 Airsoft PDW is built extremely well, using near exact components that you would find on the real HK MP7, yes it has a plastic or polymer shell but that is what you would find on the 4.6mm x 30 real steel version. The Umarex MP7 Airsoft PDW does use lots of metal where it needs to be like in the internal housing, pins, bolt, barrel, rails and even the magazine. The fit and finish is bang on, this gun is as solid as they come!

Realism: I have to say the Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 is pretty much a bang on copy of the real steel H&K MP7. The only telltale sign is the Umarex branding and warning label on the right side receiver, even the 6mm caliber markings are near impossible to make out on the underside right beside the serial number plate. Of course the red flash hider is a big "red flag" that takes away form the realism but for us here in Canada, a bit of red paint is all that is needed to fix that problem. just be aware that the flash hider is really glued on tight so plan that project accordingly!

Available at the: Canada Replica Airguns Store, US Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • Excellent attention to detail with lots of working parts.

  • Full H&K licensing and markings.

  • Good overall 400 fps power for a short barreled gas blowback gun.

  • Very nice trigger with working trigger safety.

  • Lots of metal parts where they need to be and would be on the real K&H MP7 PDW.

  • Semi auto & full auto selectable.

  • High capacity GBB magazine (40 rounds)

  • Sights are fully adjustable and offer two positions.

  • Built in for-grip and rear slide-out stock

  • Easy access to hop up system.

Cons:

  • Came with the orange tip, you may want to  paint it. (hard to get off as it is glued on!)

  • May be too powerful for CQB skirmishes without some detuning.

Comments:

I really like the Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 Airsoft PDW, it's my kind of Airsoft gun! I love the modern look, I love the features and the price is also really good for what you are getting here, a GBB gun that is super versatile and can be used in close our out at range. The build quality is what impressed me the most, this Airsoft gun is super solid, that combined with the attention to every detail would fool just about anyone that it's not the real deal until a very close inspection is done:) The Umarex - KWA H&K MP7 A1 reminds me of the other ASG MP9 KWA built PDW I reviewed earlier, they are like two peas in a pod but both with their own unique personalities.

Umarex MP7 - Umarex P99 - ASG Dan Wesson 6 Inch Airsoft Gun Update Video

No Comments

Here is a quick Update video of three Airsoft guns, two of which I have touched upon before but have not gotten around to doing any actual Table Top or Field Test Shooting videos for you (The ASG Dan Wesson Airsoft Revolver and the Umarex P99 Blowback Airsoft Pistol). I also show you a new Umarex Airsoft Gas Blowback PDW, the H&K MP7 A1, a very realistic version I am sure will be of interest to many of my Airsoft fans.

I will be doing proper Table Top and Field Test Videos for each of these Airsoft guns as soon as I can get to them all, starting with the Umarex Gas Blowback H&K MP7 A1 Airsoft PDW so stay posted for these upcoming video reviews...

ASG - Marushin CZ 75 Blowback Shell Ejecting Airsoft Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

3 Comments

Testing out the ASG - Marushin CZ 75 Blowback Shell Ejecting Airsoft Pistol was not an easy one but I did manage to get thorough it! First there was the setup, I could not shoot the ASG Shell Ejecting CZ 75 Airsoft pistol on my deck or I would have fore sure lost most of my shell casings for it. So I decided to setup camp in my pool area where I have a nice large flat area off to one side, I put down a ginormous tarp in hopes to catch the radically flying shells but even this failsafe did not catch them all as I later found out ;)

As with most of my Field Test Shooting videos, I usually do a bit of a pre test to make sure the gun is functioning properly and so I shot a full magazine of my brass shells through the ASG CZ 75 and it worked like a charm, of course when I started recording the live video it decided not to work at all and I still do not know why? I was able to revert back to the plastic shell casing that came with my ASG CZ 75 Blowback Shell Ejecting Airsoft Pistol and they seemed to be working so I went with them for my testing. Interestingly enough the brass shells got much higher fps (around 300+) when I did my pretest compared to around the 250 average fps I was getting with the plastic shell casings.

Shooting on target proved to be better than I though once I raised my sight point up a bit, the gun likes to shoot a bit low but once I found the sweet spot I got three rounds within about 3/4 of an inch from just over 20 feet away in a semi rested position.

I would not recommend this Airsoft gun as an everyday shooter and there is no way you could use it in any type of Airsoft simulation as the ejected shell casings would get lost for sure and the cost to shoot the ASG CZ 75 would get very high indeed! It would be good for use in a movie or video where you wanted the realistic look of shells being ejected and did not want to use a blank gun or render the shells in post. And of course it is just really cool to have an Airsoft gun that has ejecting shells :)

Make sure to watch my Table Top Video Review for information and photos on the ASG CZ 75.

ASG - Marushin CZ 75 Blowback Shell Ejecting Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: Shell Ejecting 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:ASG.

Model: CZ 75

Materials: Plastic slide & frame, some metal parts.

Weight: 1.4 pounds (616 grams).

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: Propane, green gas.

Action: Blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 8 rounds.

FPS: 279+ fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ASG CZ 75 Shell Ejecting Airsoft Replica is single action only, unlike the real steel version that actually has a single and double action trigger. The single action trigger has a light to medium pull but does have a fair bit of take-up to it.

Accuracy: I did not pre-test the ASG CZ 75 as the shells fly everywhere and you really need to be able to retrieve them afterwards as the cost to replace the shell casing is rather high. I do plan to do a full Shooting Field Test where I will shoot the ASG Shell Ejecting CZ 75 through the chronograph, place some shots on a target and also capture the action of this pistol in slow motion with a high speed camera. So stay posted for that. I can say that from the few shots taken in my house, that it seems to shoot pretty hard and the shells really com flying out of this gun with force, I also noticed that a BB does have to be loaded into each shell for there to be enough back pressure to allow for a full slide blowback and ejection of each shell.

Click here to watch my Field Test Video Review for the ASG CZ 75 Shell Ejecting Airsoft Pistol.

Build Quality: Even though this gun is made mostly out of plastic and from what I can tell is also made in Taiwan, it has a very good overall fit and finish. The slide slop is next to none and the licensing and markings look great. There are metal parts where they really need to be like in the barrel, hammer, trigger, safety, slide catch, magazine and a few other internal parts.

Realism: The ASG Shell Ejecting CZ 75 Airsoft Pistol is one of the most ultra realistic Airsoft pistols I have seen and mimics a real steel gun right down to the shells being ejected, how cool is that! If it had more metal then that would really top it off. Even with the plastic slide and frame it is very realistic in almost every way and even field strips just like a real CZ 75 and is fully licensed. The only feature not true to the actual CZ 75 would be the single action only trigger.

Purchased from YouTuber: FuzzyDicePimp

Pros:

  • Very cool blowback with ejecting shell cases.
  • Excellent fit and finish - tolerances are very good.
  • Very believable working replica of the real steel CZ 75.
  • Fully licensed.
  • Fully field strip-able.
  • Nice heavy full size drop out metal magazine helps give it some needed weight.
  • Has metal parts where they need to be.

Cons:

  • Plastic slide and frame.
  • A bit low in the FPS department.
  • Only 8 rounds in the magazine.
  • Can not really use in the field, would lose too many shells.

Comments:

The ASG CZ 75 Shell Ejecting Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a very unique Airsoft gun, not very many Airsoft guns actually have ejecting shells. Just because of that I had to have it! Overall it is a pretty decent gun but I have yet to really test it out and that is the biggest shortcoming with this gun, you can't just shoot it anywhere as you need to shoot it in a place where you can recover your spent shell casings, unless of course you have all the money and shell cases in the world... That said it has a lot going for it other than the ejecting shells; Fully licensed and trademarked, blowback operation, full size drop out metal magazine and it's fully field strippable. I am sorry to say we don't offer it in out Canada or USReplica Airguns Store but we do have a similar all metal CZ 75 Airsoft offering in the form of the KJWorks KP-09 which I have done both a Table Top and Shooting Review for.

Multi Camera Test Tactical Shooting with WE SCAR Airsoft GBB

3 Comments

For the most part, this video is to test out some cameras and using them all together in a multi-camera scenario. I wanted to see how many camera angles I could shoot at one time and see how they would all work together when editing the video.

Cameras used:

  • My new Pivothead Recon Camera Glasses.

  • Sony HDR-AS15 Action Cam.

  • Drift HD170 Point of View Camera.

  • Nikon 1 with 10mm fixed lens.

  • Casio TRYX.

  • *All cameras where shooting in 1080p for this video.

I hope to use camera setups like this in the future, maybe not all at once but at least a couple at a time to give you some viewing options.

I picked out my WE SCAR GBB Airsoft Rifle for this test as it had a lot of mounting points and the Gas Blow Back makes for some great video action. Unfortunately My WE SCAR was not working at 100% but I still think I was able to pull off this test video either way.

Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 GBB Blowback Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

4 Comments

Type: 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:Cybergun

Model:Sig Sauer P226

Materials: Metal slide & frame.

Weight: 2 pounds (920 grams).

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: Gas Blowback (GBB).

Action: Single and double action.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 26 rounds.

FPS: 383 fps (Using .12 gram BB's).

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 Airsoft Replica is good in both single and double action. Once the slide is pulled back and released the first round is chambered and the hammer will remain back placing the P226 in single action mode, the pull is light and the take-up is fairly short, most of your shots will be in single action mode unless you use the de-cocker to lower the hammer for a subsequent double action next shot, double action shots are still pretty light but much longer in order to cock the hammer.

Accuracy: Shooting the Cybergun Sig P226 from 20 feet out in semi rested position I was able to get very good results. I placed 10 rounds in about 1.5 inches with the shot placement being a bit low possibly due to my barrel mod, adjusting the hop-up may bring the aim point back up to where it should be. The Sig Sauer P226 Airsoft Replica shot right around the 316 fps range while conducting my 5 shot average chrony testing which was lower than advertised but I was using much heavier .20 gram BB's. You can expect to get a full magazine worth of shots out of each gas fill-up but I did notice that as the magazine got colder it did tend to become much less efficient and also seemed to vent a lot of vapor.

Build Quality: The build quality is generally good and I was surprised at the finish on this model as the paint is not showing any wear marks so far, the fit is good with minimal slide and barrel wobble and everything is working very well with no problems so far with a fair amount of shots through it, guess you could say I like shooting this gun :) Most of the gun is metal with only the grips and a couple internal parts being plastic.

Realism: The Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 6mm Airsoft pistol is a replica of the real steel Sig Sauer P226 right down to the licensing and it really is a great looking and functioning Airsoft Replica. You can field strip this gun exactly like a real Sig and all the mechanical parts work just the same including a working de-cocker and adjustable front sight.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • All metal pistol with good overall realistic weight to it.

  • Very crisp and firm full blowback operation.

  • Excellent fit and finish - paint seems to be wearing well.

  • Nice accurate looking and working Sig Sauer P226 Replica with licensing

  • Working de-cocker.

  • White dot sights for quick target acquisition.

  • Front sight is adjustable for windage.

  • Full size drop out magazine holds BB's and gas.

  • Fully field strip-able.

Buy this Airsoft Pistol in Canada  -  Buy this Airsoft Pistol in the US

Cons:

  • Comes with an orange tip not required for Canada.

  • Seemed to shoot a bit low for me, could adjust with hop-up a bit?

  • Only one magazine per Gas fill.

Comments:

I am a big Sig Sauer fan so it would take a lot for me to not give this gun a good review, with that said it performed pretty well, sure it was not the most powerful but I was using gas over CO2 so I was not expecting too much, it also shot a bit low for me but again that may have been because of the barrel mod so who really knows for sure at this point ;) And yes it came with that unsightly orange tip that I took short work of removing. At teh end of the day I still love it and it performed well without letting me down, just like a would expect from a real Sig Sauer!

Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 GBB Blowback Airsoft Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

4 Comments

I usually do my Table Top Video Review first but this time around I did my Field Test Video Review first since I was all setup checking out a couple other guns at the time. When I do my detailed Table Top Video Review for the Cybgergun Sig Suer P226, I'll post the link here so stay tuned. If you have not already checked out my Barrel Mod Video for this same gun then check that video out where I remover the extended orange portion of the metal barrel and make the barrel flush with the end of the slide which is how the real steel version was originally made.

Getting back to the Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 GBB blowback Airsoft Pistol field test, as per usual I test this Airsoft semi auto gas blowback pistol on the Chronograph to see what kind of real world velocity I get and since I had some Green Gas on hand, I used it for this part of the review and got an average of 315 fps with a six shot string.

I also stepped back 20 feet and shot 10 times at my stationary target using a semi rested position (sand bag up front and kneeling in the back). Even though the Sig Sauer P226 shot a bit low I did get about a 1.25 inch group with the exception of one flyer that hooked down just a bit making the 10 shot group a bit wider at just under 2 inches. The low shot placement may have been caused by my barrel mod but since I did not do a before and after test, I can not say for sure?

Make sure to watch my YouTube Video of this Field Test as it also includes some nice slow-motion of the slide blowback at both 400 and 1200 frames per second.

Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 GBB Blowback Airsoft Pistol Red Barrel Tip Mod

6 Comments

I have not done my official Table Top and Shooting Reviews for the Gas Blowback Airsoft Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 but I really wanted to cut off the ugly orange painted barrel tip, it was kind of driving me crazy! keep in mind here in Canada we are not required to have orange tips on our Airsoft guns, most of the all metal or all black Airsoft guns imported these days fall into the "airgun uncontrolled firearms" category. If you live in the US or other parts of the world you could be breaking the law if you do this mod so be warned...

Your best best is to simply watch my Vimeo Video as I show you exactly how I removed the orange painted portion of the metal barrel using a hack saw, file, vice and some sand paper. All in all it was not too difficult and only took about 15 minutes to complete...

KJWORKS KP-09 CZ 75 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

3 Comments

Type: 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:KJWORKS.

Model: KP-09 (CZ 75 Replica)

Materials: Metal slide & frame.

Weight: 2.1 pounds (970 grams).

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Blowback, Single and double action.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 24 rounds.

FPS: 366+ fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KJWORKS KP-09 CZ 75 Airsoft Replica is surprisingly light in single action but incredibly sticky at first in double action, with that said you really will not be shooting very often in double action unless you happen to de-cock the gun for some reason, at least you have the ability to shoot with the hammer down in double action when required. In signal action it took me a bit to get used to the very light trigger pull as I was letting some shots go off early.

Accuracy: I shot the KJWORKS KP-09 from 20 feet out in semi rested position and got very satisfactory results. I was able to place 10 rounds under 2 inches almost getting a 1 inch group with the exception of one flyer. Shot placement was also well centered but just a bit high which could easily be corrected by adjusting my aim point just a bit down. The KJWORKS CZ 75 Airsoft Replica shot right around the 360 fps range while conducting my 5 shot average chrony testing which is right where this gun is supposed to be. I also got three full 24 round magazines worth of shots with a bit of CO2 left over for a partial mag, so this gun can easily get 75 shots out of a 12 gram CO2 - not bad at all for this style of full heavy blowback airsoft design.

Build Quality: I am extremely impressed with the build quality of pretty much all the KJWORKS Airsoft guns, the fit and finish is the best I have seen on any of my guns including my 4.5mm steel BB shooters. Even after shooting several magazines worth of BB's, the painted metal friction areas show very light wear which is not always the case with metal built blowback airguns. (there was some wear present within the ejection port but this is common even with real steel guns as metal on metal will wear down the finish). The tolerances between the moving parts like the slide and frame are very tight showing excellent workmanship and machining. 

Realism: The KJWORKS KP-09 6mm Airsoft pistol is a replica of the real steel CZ 75 and is a great looking and functioning copy. You will not find actual licensing on this version and the CO2 magazine does stick out a bit to accommodate the 12 gram CO2 but other than that this Airsoft pistol looks and works near exactly like the real mccoy and is full field strip-able. Even the safety operates just the same with safety available on half cock and full cock only.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • All metal pistol with good overall realistic weight to it.

  • Very crisp and firm full blowback operation.

  • Excellent fit and finish - best I have seen.

  • Excellent fps and CO2 efficiency (three plus full 24 round magazines)

  • Good accuracy and well centered on target.

  • Very believable working replica of the real steel CZ 75.

  • Fully field strip-able.

Cons:

  • Does not have official CZ 75 licensing.

  • CO2 magazine is long to accommodate the 12 gram CO2.

  • Did get some finish wear in the ejection port area.

Comments:

The KP-09 CZ 75 is another wonderful full blowback Airsoft pistol from KJWORKS. The CZ 75 is a classic semi auto pistol and deserves the attention to detail the KJWORKS version demonstrates. I found the CO2 usage to be very good on the KP-09 considering the rather high 360+ fps I was abel to get with it. Top this off with high marks in the accuracy department and you have a real winner here. So if you're looking for a quality Airsoft Replica of the classic CZ 75 that shoots straight and hard and looks and operates just like the real steel version then the KJWORKS KP-09 should just do the trick for you.

Replica Airguns at SHOT Show Vegas 2013 Highlights

10 Comments

I am happy to report back to you on all the new cool stuff I got to see at this years 2013 SHOT Show in Las Vegas. Make sure to also watch my Vimeo video at the bottom of this post for some first person styled play by play of my experience at the Vegas SHOT Show 2013. (like you're there with me ;)

First up I want to cover a new gun from ASG, I have been wanting to get my hands on the 4.5mm Bersa BP9CC and I finally got to, not only did I get my hands on it but ASG was kind enough to supply me with one to take home for review. You can get the Bersa BP9CC in both Blowback and non-blowback versions and also in either BB or Airsoft. I opted for the 4.5mm BB Blowback version. I will be reviewing this BB gun very soon!

ASG also had a very cool prototype of an Airsoft CZ Scorpion EVO 3A1 hopefully coming out soon.

While roaming around SHOT Show 2013, I came across an interesting booth from FlashFog Security. I often get people asking me about using an airgun as a home defense weapon and I strongly advise against this. If the intruder is not scared off by the gun there is little an airgun can do to actually stop them. The FlashFog system works by rapidly filling a room with dense fog combined with a strobe light effect which blinds and disorients intruders completely. There is little an intruder can do other then try and get the heck out of there!

UPDATE: FlashFog just added a new section to their website specifically for School Security to help keep our schools safer from potential safety threats! So check it out: School Security Smoke Screen

I was a bit surprised by Gamo this year, they tend to stay away from actual Replica's and generally make BB/Pellet guns that look like popular guns but not any gun in particular. Gamo has a new BB/Pellet MP9 based machine pistol that uses a similar mechanism to their P-25 and PT-85 so it can shoot both 4.5mm BB's and .177 caliber Pellets using a double ended 16 shot rotary magazine. It also has an internal blowback system so it should have some recoil feel to it! I am pretty sure it is semi auto only but still a nice addition to their lineup!

Gamo also brought out a new 4.5mm BB Blowback pistol called the C-15 which has a metal slide and plastic frame, it kind of reminds me of the Umarex HPP in how it looks and feels.

Umarex had several new products that I am sure everyone is going to like! One that I think will do really well is the Steel Force, the Steel Force is designed around the 4.5mm BB shooting Steel Storm platform so it has a 6 round burst blowback operation and holds the 2x12 gram CO2 in the magazine while the BB's go in a 300 round hopper that feeds into a 30 round spring fed internal magazine. Like the Steel Storm it will shoot around 430 fps. The Steel Force has the advantage of being styled after the AR platform so it has a collapsible stock which will make shooting very easy.

Another often asked for airgun replica is the historic German Luger. This year Umarex stepped up to the plate and introduced the Umarex P.08 4.5mm BB pistol. Sorry, no blowback or even a working slide on this one but it is all metal and has a very good weight and feel to it.

If you're a fan of the entry level Umarex XBG then you may be interested in the new Umarex T.D.P. 45 which is very similar to the XBG in looks and features but with a slightly different look to it.

If you've ever wanted to turn your pistol into more of a PDW styled gun, you may be able to depending on which Umarex gun you have? Umarex added a very cool accessory called the T.A.C Converter that converts your Umarex HK USP (BB-Airsoft), SW MP40 (BB), XBG (BB), CZ Enforcer (Airsoft) and Walther P99 DOA (Airsoft) into more of a tactical (PDW) or Personal Defense Weapon complete with for-grip, adjustable rear sight, lots of rail options and a foldable stock.

I am assuming the Crosman M4-177 Pellet/BB Rifle has been doing well for Crosman as they have expanded with some more similar assault styled air rifles. The Crosman MSR77NP pretty much looks like a classic M16 but is in fact a Nitro Piston break barrel pellet rifle able to shoot .177 caliber pellets at 1200 fps (I hope there is a 499 fps Canada version planned too?).

A new takeoff of the M4-177 is the MK-177 which also shoots .177 caliber pellets and 4.5mm BB's using a multi-Pump System but it uses an upgraded more efficient pump system that squeaks out more fps with less pumps. The Crosman MK-177 is designed after the FN SCAR and is available in an adjustable iron sight version or a Red Dot equipped kit version.

One thing you can never get enough of in my opinion is another 1911 pistol! Crosman is introducing their GI Model 1911BB Blowback 4.5mm CO2 pistol, the one they had on hand was more of a prototype so the slide was not operational but it will feature an all metal design, blowback operation, 450 fps and a 20 round drop out magazine. I am sorry to say but it looks like the Crosman C51 has been dropped from Crosman's lineup but if you want a similar styled gun you can checkout the KWC SW40F which is a very close airsoft version.

We recently started carrying G&G Armament Airsoft guns, you can checkout my review of the Xtreme 45. I did stop by their booth and they had some new products on display, the M1 Grand (all wood stock) Airsoft had it's magwell all wrapped up as G&G had a propriety magazine system they did not want their competition to see. G&G also had some very interesting targets that light up, when shot they would react by individually turning off so you could see if you hit it or not.

There was a rather large crowd at the KWA booth but it was a shared booth so it's hard to say what everyone was looking at, the KWA area was pretty full, I did talk to the KWA rep and asked him point blank if KWC and KWA where the same or sister companies and the answer was not at all. There are often a lot of guns that look like they could be from the same company, I guess there is a lot of copying going on ;) One gun from KWA I would love to get my hands on is the Kriss SMG!

Now keep in mind many of these guns I have highlighted today are not available yet and a lot of them should be coming out in the spring time frame so please try to refrain from repeatedly asking when I will review them and have them in the store, it takes time and as much as we all want them now, they get here when they get here!

KJWORKS KP-05 KP-09 M9 GBB Airsoft Pistol Preview

5 Comments

I've already done a KJWORKS review on the KP-02, KP-07 and Elite 1A and they turned out to be very high quality Airsoft pistols so the extra price does get you a higher quality gun. So in this preview we are simply looking at some more models that from the looks of things I expect to be more of the same in terms of high quality and excellent functionality.

The KJWorks models we are looking at today are the KP-05 (1911 HI-CAPA), the KP-09 (CZ 75) and the M9 (Beretta M9). Even though none of them are licensed, they are very detailed and realistic copies of the original real steel versions with full blowback operation, heavy metal drop out magazines and lots of metal throughout. You would be hard pressed to tell them apart from the real powder versions.

All version in this preview load CO2 in the magazine along with 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB's, none of them have any orange markings or translucent parts as they fall into the uncontrolled firearms category here in Canada.

I look forward to doing my full review of these three very nice KJWorks Airsoft pistols.

My Airgun, Airsoft Gun and Blank Gun Collection Favorites for 2012

13 Comments

It would not be the end of another year without another Airgun, Airsoft Gun and Blank Gun Collection video for you. This year I'm not showing all my guns, I started to take them out and quickly realized there where just way too many and this years video would have been several hours long and would have taken most of the week for me to shoot and edit...

So this year I have hand picked some of my top favorites and most notable replica Airgun, Airsoft Gun and Blank Guns. They may not all be the best made or hardest shooters or even all that accurate but each one has some significants to me.

So if you have about 30 minutes to kill, then join me in this years roundup of my most favorite Collection of guns for 2012!

KWC Silver Desert Eagle - KWC Model 1911 - KWC Taurus PT99 - G&G Xtreme 45 Update Video

No Comments

This Update video addresses the similarities between the KWC and Cybergun product lines, specifically the KWC Model 1911 vs. the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 and the KWC Taurus PT99 vs. the Cybergun GSG 92. In a nutshell, they are all made by KWC and are exactly the same with the exception of some of the licensing and branding that goes on the slides. Cybergun simply contracts KWC to make the guns for them and add some slight different printing. All parts are interchangeable.

I also show you the Silver Finish Blowback Airsoft KWC Desert Eagle and mention again that the licensing on this one is kind of hit and miss depending on what KWC sends us. So when you order one there is an additional surprise waiting for you when you open the box :)

Lastly, I show for the first time a G&G Airsoft product, the G&G Xtreme 45 Blowback that looks an awful lot like the Umarex Colt Special Combat chambered in 4.5mm Steel BB. The main differences are that the Colt Special Combat is a BB gun and the Xtreme 45 is an Airsoft gun. The G&G has blowback where as the Colt Special Combat does not have blowback.

Make sure to checkout my Vimeo video of this product update for even more info!

ASG/KWA MP9 A3 GBB Gas Blowback Airsoft Machine Pistol Review

5 Comments

Type: Airsoft Machine Pistol.

Manufacturer:ASG.

Model: ASG/KWC MP9 A3.

Materials: Metal & plastic.

Weight: 3.9 pounds.

Barrel: 5.5 inches, smooth bore.

Propulsion: GBB - Gas Blowback.

Action: Semi-full auto selectable SAO.

Ammunition Type: Airsoft 6mm Plastic BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 48 rounds.

FPS: Up-to 375.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ASG/KWC MP9 A3 is single action only as the charging handle has to be pulled back to open and release the bolt for the first shot. There is a trigger safety but it is not noticeable when shooting this Airsoft machine gun. There is a short take-up and then a light release and short reset.

Accuracy: Right away I put my NcSTAR 1x25 Red Dot sight on the ASG/KWC MP9 A3 as it was a perfect fit for this small and compact machine pistol, it did not take long to sight it in and I was able to get decent accuracy in both semi auto and full auto burst due to the mild but very fast cycle rate. I was able to get a 2 inch grouping at 30 feet out using a rested position. In full auto mode the grouping did not really get too much wider. I also got between 350 and 370 fps when testing the ASG MP9 on my Chronograph.

Build Quality: The ASG/KWC MP9 A3 Airsoft Machine Pistol is built very well, using similar components that you would find on the real steel version so yes it has a plastic shell but that is to be expected. The ASG/KWC MP9 A3 does use lots of metal where it needs to be like in the internal parts, pins, bolt, barrel, rails and even the magazine. The fit and finish is near perfect!

Realism: I have to say the ASG/KWC MP9 A3 is pretty much a bang on copy of the real steel Brügger & Thomet MP9 A3. The only telltale sign is the ASG branding on the right side along with the 6mm caliber beside the ASG logo. One other small detail is the magazine which is metal on the Airsoft version where as you would find the real version uses a transparent polymer magazine.

Available at the:Canada Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Extremely fun to shoot and it sounds awesome!

  • Rate of fire is very fast and does not slow down much even when the gas is running low.

  • Good overall power for a short barreled gas blowback gun.

  • Very nice trigger with working trigger safety.

  • Excellent replica of the real steel version in just about every way.

  • Can add a lot of gear and make this gun your own.

  • Decent price for all you get out of the ASG MP9!

Cons:

  • Bolt didn't lock back for me when the gun got really cold?

  • Real magazine would actually be transparent polymer.

Comments:

I really like the ASG/KWC MP9 A3! I love the look, I love the features and the price is also really good for what you are getting. I was really impressed with the super high cycle rate and because of the small low weight bolt the gun does not move around too much or slow down in rounds per minute even when you do a full mag dump. There is however just enough blowback recoil to give you that GBB realistic feel! I also found that the magazine holds a lot of gas so it is possible to get two magazine worth of shots out of a single fill, that's around 100 shots. I also like how easy it is to add to the ASG/KWC MP9 A3, I had mine pimped out and looking amazing right away and suggest if you get one you do the same :)

WE G39C GBB Airsoft Assault Rifle Full Review

7 Comments

Type: Airsoft Assault Rifle.

Manufacturer:WE.

Model: G39C.

Materials: Metal & plastic.

Weight: 6.1 pounds.

Barrel: 9.5 inches, smooth bore.

Propulsion: (GBB) Gas Blowback.

Action: Semi & full auto.

Ammunition Type: Airsoft 6mm Plastic BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 32 rounds.

FPS: Up-to 420.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the WE G39C is about what you would expect from a Single action only Semi Auto rifle, it has a very slight take up and then about a 4 pound trigger pull that is crisp and smooth.

Accuracy: Out of the Box the WE G39C shot great up close and farther out, the hop-up seemed to be already dialed in, and even though I was using only .20 gram BB's which is a bit light for this gun, I still found they tracked well and stayed on target both near and far. My 30 foot semi rested testing produced a nice 2 inch grouping. Shooting the barrel out on the tactical range I did have to aim just a bit higher when back out at 60 or more feet away. Maybe a slight bit more hop-up would do the trick.

Build Quality: The WE G39C is very well made, yes it has lots of polymer but so does the real version and the plastic seems very durable, The fit and finish looked great and there is a lot of metal in and around the G39C where it would be on the real steel gun and where it is really required to be. Like the trigger, flash hider, rails, pins, switches, rear sight, magazine and most internal parts also.

Realism: I bet if you had the real G36C sitting beside the WE G39C you would be hard pressed to tell them apart? WE did a great job making this Airsoft version very believable not just in appearance but also when field stripping it and shooting it with it's heavy bolt and felt blowback recoil.

Available at the:Canada Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Amazing attention to detail, just like the real H&K G36C.

  • All metal internals and metal external mechanical parts.

  • Semi auto & full auto selectable.

  • Awesome blowback kick really hits you in the shoulder.

  • Field strips just like the real steal version.

  • Nice high 400 FPS and good accuracy near and far.

  • Full ambidextrous, even the charging handle can be switched side to side.

  • Can get up to three magazines per propane fill up.

  • Very well priced for how awesome it really is.

Cons:

  • Some people may not like that it is a polymer built gun externally but it is what it is!

  • And that's it!

Comments:

So far I have been impressed with We an Airsoft company, they really know how to make very realistic and high quality products. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the mostly polymer external build on this gun but the sheer quality and solid build took away any ideas that tis Airsoft gun would be anything like a toy. The WE G39C is one of the best performing GBB Airsoft guns I have tried out getting up to 90 shots per gas fill on a magazine which is very impressive. We was also able to keep the price down which means more people can get into one of the G39C's. If you've been thinking about adding one of these to your arsenal I don't see any reason why not to!
