Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on ASG Action Army T-11 Spring Powered Bolt Action Airsoft Gun is light, short and crisp. There is virtually no take-up and the release point has no creep to it. I would say it is not too light but for sure one of the lighter trigger s I have tested on a Airsoft rifle.

Accuracy: I have not performed my Field Test Shooting Video for the ASG Action Army T-11 Spring Powered Bolt Action Airsoft Gun so stay posted for that. ASG claims around 400-430 fps velocity depending on the version which is kind of weird since both have the exact same barrel length internally and I would assume both use the same mechanical part throughout? I don’t have the rifle version to compare to but I will for sure test the velocity using my Chronograph for the pistol version when I do my Field Test Shooting Review along with accuracy performance.

Build Quality: The ASG Action Army T-11 Spring Powered Bolt Action Airsoft Gun is well built for sure, it feels really solid in the hadn't and has good overall weigth to it for it’s size. You will find lots of metal parts where they need to be as in the inner and outer barrel, receiver, bolt, trigger, magazine release and I am sure most mechanical internal parts. Fit and finish is also very good.

View fullsize

Realism: The ASG Action Army T-11 Spring Powered Bolt Action Airsoft Gun is not a replace of any gun I know of but does have tab least the pistol version does look like a sawn off shotgun more than a sniper rifle. The gun overall all is very modern and ergonomic looking but in terms of being a replica of any specific real steel gun in production I don’t know of any it would resemble?

Pros:

• Top and bottom rails for lots of accessory add on options.

• Can swap over to a rifle version by adding on an interchangeable but-stock.

• Mock magazine allows for storage and transport of tools plus extras.

• Safety switch is in a great location for right handed shooters.

• Comes with included hand stop.

• Solid construction with lots of metal parts where they are important.

• Ability to add side rails.

• Great option if you are looking for a more compact sniper rifle.

• Comes in Pistol and Rifle versions.

Cons:

• Has an orange tip.

• Does not come with sights, will need to add some sort of optical or red dot sight.

• Does not come with speed loader, would have been nice.

Comments:
I am looking forward to performing my Indoor Field Test Shooting Video for the ASG Action Army T-11 Spring Powered Bolt Action Airsoft Gun. I won’t be able to test it out perhaps as far range as I would like to since I will be shooting it in the Replica Airguns Indoor Shooting range which allows me to test at 30 feet. That should give us a good overall idea on at least what it may be capable of since if we can get a tight group at 30 feet we should also be able to get a tight group at longer ranges with proper hop-up and BB selection. I like the option of being able to choose either the Pistol or Rifle version and both should perform about the same. Having the Pistol version will allow for a much more compact Sniper Rifle option much better suited for shooting in a variety of situations.

Make sure to watch my Table Top Video Review where I go into more detail about the specifications and details along with some nice close up video of the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle.

In this Vimeo Video Field Test Review I test out the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle in the indoor Replica Airguns Shooting Range to see how accurate it is and what kind fo velocity we can expect from it.

View fullsize

Starting with the velocity test I averaged out 8 rounds through my chronograph using 8.18 grain lead pellets using the dual 12 gram CO2 setup and I was able to average 445 fps which is not bad as these are mid grain weight pellets, lighter weight pellets would for sure get closer to the 490 fps claimed by Umarex. The temperate was about average room temp so not overly cold or warm.

Moving on to the accuracy test I placed all 9 rounds from the rotary magazine into a fresh paper target setup 30 feet away. I use a reseted seated position in the back with the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle resting on a sand bag up front and I was using the 4 power scope for this test which I setup earlier. My final result was for sure an under one half inch grouping, I did feel like I pulled one shot a little bit but I am sure this Airgun can get quarter inch groupings at 30 feet and I would expect half inch groupings at 50 feet so perfect for mid range small pest shooting.

View fullsize

Umarex does adversities this Air rifle as being very quiet but in Canada we are not allowed to have any type of suppressor even on airguns so I believe this Canada version has been disabled in that regard but the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle is fairly quiet for sure with its long barrel and slightly lower fps than the US version. Overall the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle is a lot of bang for the buck with the added 4x scope, included magazines that hold 9 rounds each and the ability to use either a dual 12 gram or single 88 gram CO2 setup. It also looks really cool and performs just as good!

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle feels pretty good, it is fairly short and light having a claimed 3.5 pound release which is believable. You will need to obviously work the bolt for each shot that precooks the internal hammer/striker allowing for the short and light trigger.

View fullsize

Accuracy: I have not performed my Field Test Shooting Video for the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle so stay posted for that. Umarex has claimed a velocity of around 490 FPS for the Canada version I will be testing, the US version has a claimed velocity of up to 700 for those in the US purchasing this Rifle. I am sure the included 4x32 optical scope once setup will help in the accuracy department when I test this CO2 Air Rifle out on a paper target setup 30 feet down range.

View fullsize

Build Quality: The Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle is a fairly low cost target pellet Rifle when you consider it comes with a decent optical scope along with two 9 round magazines but even so the build quality seems very solid coming in at 6.5 pounds. The stock is plastic of course but there is lots of metal where you want it to be as in the bolt, trigger, safety and most other mechanical parts.

View fullsize

Realism: The Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle is not a replace of any gun I know of but does sport a very modern ergonomic look with its pistol grip and molded full stock. I like the built in picatinny rail which even though it does not offer any type of open sight configuration will allow for a variety of scope mounting options for near or far shooting.

View fullsize

Pros:

• Low cost for a full featured Air Rifle with included scope.

• Nice ergonomic modern looking design.

• Ability to use either 12 gram or 88 gram CO2 cartridges.

• Comes with 4x32 optical scope and all mounting hardware needed.

• Come with two 9 round rotary magazines.

• May be very quiet if the SilencAir technology is not disabled here in Canada?

• Single action 3.5 pound trigger fells good.

• Safety is large and easy to use.

• M-LOK slots for mounting additional hardware.

Cons:

• No iron sight option if you would prefer that.

• Limited to under 500 fps (Canada version).

• Not sure about the functionality of the SilencAir technology in Canada?

Comments:
I am looking forward to performing my Indoor Field Test Shooting Video for the Umarex Fusion 2 CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Rifle to see if it performs as good as it looks. I’ll probably use the duel 12 gram configuration for this test since I don’t plan on shooting 300 rounds with it for my testing. We should also find out if the SilencAir technology has been disabled or not with my Canada version but even so, a 500 fps Air Refile is not going to be all that loud either way at the end of the day. There are not a lot of Bolt Action multi shot pellet Air Rifles out there especially in this price range so I am really hoping it hits a home run when I test it so stay posted for that video…

Today I decided to get outside since the weather was nice and make my Field Test Shooting Video for the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle (actually outside in the filed!) After all the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is a sniper rifle and so I wanted to test it out at longer ranges than my 30 foot indoor shooting range can allow for. So I setup two paper targets at around 40 feet and 80 feet out, the actually distance may have been longer than that?

Starting off my Field Test Review I placed five .25 gram plastic Airsoft BB’s through my Chronograph and averaged 446 fps which is 6 fps faster than the claimed 440 fps from ASG. And that was with .25 gram Airsoft BB’s so if I was using lighter .20 gram BB’s I would expect velocity closer to around 500fps so don’t be shooting anyone with this Airsoft Rifle at close ranges!

View fullsize

Next I proceeded with my accuracy test placing 5 rounds on the target setup around 40 feet downrange. I managed to get all 5 rounds within about 2 inches of each other, not bad since this is a good 10 feet more than I usually test my Airsoft Rifles at. With the remaining 10 rounds in my magazines I was hoping to get at least a couple shots on my paper target setup a good 80 feet away but did not have much luck, I even reloaded the 15 round stick magazine 2 more times and gave it a go but again with no success! The Airsoft BB’s seemed to want to angle off in all direction usually up and to the right or left right before the 80 foot target, perhaps I would have had much better luck at 60 feet?

All I can surmise from this higher range Field Test is that the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is not really a long range Airsoft gun at least with the .25 gram Airsoft BB’s I was using, maybe heavier Airsoft BB’s would settle down a bit more? I can say at ranges up to 40 feet the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle did perform just fine so keep that in mind when looking into buying one of these as smoking cans at 30-40 feet will be no problem and make for some fun times in the back yard or even basement makeshift gun range.

Make sure to also watch my Table Top review for the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle.

Type: Airsoft Rifle.
Manufacturer: ASG.
Model: TAC-6.
Materials: Plastic with some internal metal parts.
Weight: 3.5 pounds (1588 grams).
Barrel: 12 inches, metal non-rifled.
Length: 36 inches.
Propulsion: 12 gram CO2 x 1.
Action: Semi auto, double action only.
Ammunition Type: 6mm BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 15 round metal stick magazine.
FPS: 440.

View fullsize

Trigger Pull: The double action only type trigger pull on the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is not too heavy but it is rather long so really quick rapped fire shooting will require some finger work. The trigger reset is right at the begging of the pull so you need to make sure you allow the trigger full range of motion or you may miss the odd shot.

View fullsize

Accuracy: I haven't done my Field Test Shooting video just yet for the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle but will shortly so stay posted for that video. ASG claimed the fps to be right around 440 and I am assuming with .20 gram Airsoft BB’s, I will most likely busing .25 gram Airsfto BB’s for my testing so I am hoping for around 400 fps or so. With the fiber optic front sight and fully adjustable rear peep sight I shoudl be able to get some decent rounds on target downrange and hopefully get a nice grouping.

View fullsize

Build Quality: The ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is mostly plastic but feels pretty good in the hand with decent fit and finish. There are some metal internal part along with the outer barrel and top rail but for the most part the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is all plastic including the trigger and front and rear sights.

View fullsize

Realism: The ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle is not a replica of any modern rifle that I know of but it does look a bit like a Beretta CX4 Storm especially the back half of it. The flash hider and top and bottom raise add to the realism.
Available From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Very customizable with rails top and bottom.

• Comes with a rather nice Bipod that can be used with other rifles.

• Front and back removable Iron sights are very usable, fiber optic in front, peep in back.

• Safety switch is in a great location for right handed shooters.

• Canada version comes with black flash hider.

• Mostly plastic but solid construction.

• Rubber Butt Pad is nice and thick.

• Removable barrel to reduce size for easier transportation.

• Also come in 4.5mm Steel BB version.

• Optional Integrated laser can be added.

View fullsize

Cons:

• DOA Trigger pull is a bit long which will slow down rapid fire shooting a bit.

• Mostly Plastic Polymer build.

• Why not a longer inner barrel for possible more fps?

• CO2 is in the Pistol grip and not the magazine so may not be great for on field battles.

Comments:
This may not be the most exciting Airsoft Rifle I have reviewed, it does look kind of cool and the price is right compared to other Airsoft Rifles. Who is it really for? I would say someone looking for an Air Rifle for plinking in the backyard or basement that perhaps want's a little bit more safety in terms of using plastic BB’s rather than Steel BB’s. Sure you can use the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle for Airsoft wars but most people want something a bit more realistic in terms of looks and function. Because the ASG TAC-6 CO2 Airsoft Rifle does have built-in Popup it shoudl be able to reach out to longer ranges so we will have to see if it can perform decent at longer ranges when I do my Field test Shooting Video.

I will say right off the bat this Field Test Shooting Video for the Air Venturi 3000 PSI Aluminum HPA Tank with Stock and Adapter did not go as well as I would have wanted it to! The HPA tank itself worked really well but I believe the adapter was faulty as it was destroying the seals on my tank and not regulating very well.

I still wanted to publish this video regardless as not all reviews go as planned, some fail horribly but I would rather be honest and transparent about it rather than have you believe every product is a perfect.

There will always be problems even with really great products there can be defects. I plan to get a new adaptor and try this Field Test Review Video again but for now you can have some fun watching me at least have some success using the Air Venturi 3000 PSI Aluminum HPA Tank with Stock on my Rap4 Rap5 MP5.

You can also watch my Table Top Review Video for more details and info on this product!

Type: Airgun Accessory.
Manufacturer: Distributed by Air Venturi.
Model: Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank.
Materials: Aluminum.
PSI: 3000.
Capacity: 13 CU.
Output PSI: 1100.
Diameter: 2 inches.
Length: 10 inches.
Features: Two ASTM burst disks, integrated pressure gauge.
Accessories included: Buttstock, CO2 Adapter.

In this Table Top Review Video I go over the features and benefits of the Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank system, what to expect and some of the Pros and Cons for it.

I will also be following up my Table Top video with a Field Test Shooting Video to see what possible advantages and disadvantages the Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank has in a real world test of its performance, hopefully all advantages!

View fullsize

Pros:

• Compact and is the perfect size to use as a rear buttstock for various 88 Gram and or HPA rifles.

• Smaller tank means if you are using a foot pump it won’t take all day to fill up :)

• Comes with adapter so can be used with regular HPA and 88 Gram CO2 systems.

• Regulated to 1100 psi so should perform better in terms of max velocity and consistency compared to CO2 which is around max 800-900 psi with velocity being effected by cool down.

• Not effected by colder temperatures compared to CO2.

• Once you have this tank the cost is virtually nothing to shoot compared to expensive 88 Gram CO2 cartages. You just need to buy your pellets or BB’s.

Cons:

• Still takes a while to pump up using a foot pump system.

• Higher initial cost ($195) than simply buying 88 gram CO2 cartages when you need them.

• Will need access to a pump or compressor to use it.

• Doesn’t look as good as the supplied buttstock at least with the Sig Sauer MCX and MPX.

Comments:

I guess the question is who is this for? If you are a casual shooter that perhaps owns the Sig MPX or MCX or even another 88 Gram CO2 Air Rifle that the Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank would work with then this may be a bit expensive especially if you don’t have a way to pressurizer the tank at home. On the other hand if you already have a foot pump or air compressor or easy access to one and maybe you have other HPA or CO2 based airguns this tank will work with then it’s kind a no brainer to get it. Maybe you juts want a system that gives you maximum and consistent velocity no matter how cold it is outside. All good reasons to get one in my books.

First I show off an HPA tank from Air Venturi that works perfectly for the Sig Sauer MPX and MCX Pellet Rifles allowing for more consistent fps and I would image a higher overall fps? We will find out when I test it out in the replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Range.

Next I take a look at the KJWorks M9A1 GBB Airsoft Pistol, I hover revived the CO2 version before but this version comes with the Gas magazine rather than the CO2 mag for those that prefer gas operated Blowback Airsoft Pistols. Because of the slightly lower FPS the Gas version comes with a barrel extension to make it Canada import friendly.

Probably one of the most interesting product I look at in this video at least for me is the EMG JW3 Combat Master GBB Airsoft Pistol. This Airsoft pistol is mainly aluminum with some polymer based off of the 2011 STI and was featured in the 2019 John Wick 3 Film. I’m really looking forward to testing this one out in the Sea Can Replica Airguns Airgun Range!

Moving along to another Air Pistol I finally get my hands on the Crosman P1 which is really just a KWC PT92 4.5mm Blowback CO2 BB Pistol but with Crosman Branding and an included laser. Since I have never shot a PT92 BB Pistol with a laser I will probably make a Field Test Shooting Video to see how well it performs.

Last up I take a look at the ASG TAC-6 which is pretty much the exact same ASG TAC-4.5 CO2 Air Rifle I tested a while back but in this case the 6 refers to it being a 6mm Airsoft Rifle rather than a 4.5mm Steel BB Riffle. I am not sure I will do a full Table Top Video since these guns are virtually identical but just in different Ammo types but I hope to get outside and see how well it performs shooting at a bit more distance than the 30 foot indoor range I usually test my Airgun in.

I have been wanting to test out the Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine for a while now and finally got around to it. The weather was cooperating with me so I went outside for this one and setup a bunch of cameras to make the many many magazine reloads a bit more interesting for my viewers.

View fullsize

The Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine has a hopper that is said to hold around 300 4.5mm Steel BB’s which I can attest it does in fact hold at least 300 BB’s. The Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine like their regular Crosman Full Auto Magazines holds two 12 gram CO2 Cartridges, so the question is, will I be able to get through most of the 300 BB’s without reloading the CO2?

Looking at the 2016 US version of the Sig Sauer ASP MPX .177 Cal. Pellet Rifle verses the more resent Canada version we have in our Canada Replica Airguns Store it is hard to really see any difference other than my US version is all black and Canada version is two tone desert tan with black highlights. To be honest I really like both color schemes but that will be a personal preference.

View fullsize

In this Field Test Shooting Comparison video my main goal was to see if there is any significant performance difference between the two versions. Did Sig Sauer perhaps detune the Canada version as is often the case with Canada versions of Airguns? Did Sig Sauer make any changes internally and improve the accuracy or shooting characteristics of their newer Canada model?

View fullsize

I am happy to say both version performed really similar, maybe the US version shot just a little bit hotter but they where within around 5 fps of each other so the same test on a different day could yield the opposite results. The same is true for my accuracy test shooting 10 rounds 30 feet downrange on a paper target. This time the Canada version shot just a tad bit tighter I would say just under an inch grouping but then again the US version was really close with really only 1 pellet extending the grouping out just over an inch. A different test I am sure and the results may be switched? After all I am only human and this was all shot using the open sights on both guns using a sand bag as a rest and sitting in a chair in the back to help with stability.

The good news is we have the Sig Sauer ASP MPX .177 Cal. Pellet Rifle available in both our Canada and US online Replica Airguns Stores so where ever you buy them from you are basically getting the exact same gun!

This Table Top Comparison video is also a bit of a revisit since I reviewed the US version of the Sig Sauer ASP MPX .177 Cal. Pellet Rifle back in 2016 when it first came out. I actually had to go across the border and bring it back across with me which can be a lot of fun dealing with Canada Customs border agents. They are well meaning but often don’t fully understand their own import guidelines for Airguns. After about an hour or so I was able to convict the CBSA officer that no my Sig Sauer Airguns where not regulated Firearms and no they did not require any registration or transfer permits.

View fullsize

Anyway that was 5 years ago and now we have the Canada import version which makes purchasing one of the Sig Sauer ASP MPX .177 Cal. Pellet Rifles so much easier and to be honest there really isn’t any difference as far as I can tell since my original US version even though it had a claimed fps of up to 600 was actually closer to somewhere in the mid 400’s using standard .177 caliber lead pellets.

In this Field Test Shooting Video I perform my usual Chronograph and Accuracy tests in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Shooting Range to find out what the actual feet per second velocity is and how accurate the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is in both semi auto and full auto. Watch my Table Top Video if you are looking for more info on Specifications and Details along with a full tear down of the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle.

First up I place 6 rounds through my Chronograph to see what the real world velocity is and the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle was able to average 391 fps using .25 gram plastic Airsoft BB’s. ICS claims the ICS CPX-APE SF1 is capable of fps up to 460 fps but this would be using lighter .20 gram Airsoft BB’s which I believe is entirely possible!

Next I put a fresh paper target on my metal backstop 30 feet downrange and proceeded to shoot 10 round in semi auto to see how tight of a grouping I could get. I was happy to see that 7 of my 10 rounds all grouped nicely within the 1.5 inch bullseye and only 3 came out just slightly increasing the grouping to around 2 inches but still closer to 1.5 inches. When I switched over to full auto and emptied the 300 round magazine into the target, amazingly the grouping still seemed to stay pretty close to 2 inches in diameter with some stragglers. The ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle punched a satisfying hole in my target going through several layers of cardboard.

As you can see in this YouTube Field Test Shooting Video the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle performed very well for me living up to its pristine price point. You will pay top dollar for the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle but will also get top quality with a ton fo features including an almost all metal/aluminum build, ambidextrous controls throughout, tons of add on capabilities using the 5 sided Keymod hand-gurd, fully adjustable folding stock and exceptional performance.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is pretty much like most AEG Electric trigger operated Airsoft Rifles. Usually mid range, light and with no real noticeable release point since it is an electric on and on switch at the end of the day and not really mechanical. Of course you can elect between semi and full auto operation at will.

Accuracy: I have not done my actual Field Test Shooting video review for the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle but plan to tackle this video next on my list so this week for sure, stay posted of this one as I have not Field Tested any ICS Airsoft Rifles to date and really don’t know what to expect!

Build Quality: The G&G ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is extremely well made as the price tag would suggest. You are going to find metal almost everywhere on this product including the all aluminum upper receiver. The only plastic I could find on the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle was in the magazine and the folding butt stock. Everything else is metal/aluminum including the upper and lowe receivers, the sights, the rails and all of the controls. Fit and finish feels great as-well!

Realism: The ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is not a replica so to speak of any one particular gun in production but does have some AR and perhaps SCAR attributes to it. Perhaps there needs to be a real steel version of this gun as it does combine a bit of the best of a both platforms. The ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is sold for sure with great weigth and feel to it being that it is mostly metal. All the controls work exactly like you would expect on a the real powder burner and you can totally take this Airsoft rifle apart in just a minute or two with virtually no tools.

Available in the: Replica Airguns Store

Comments:

The ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is not an inexpensive product and may be a bit out of touch for Airsofters on a tighter budget. That said it is really well thought out and well built Airsoft product that is ready to go with no real upgrading required. You may want to show on an optical or red dot sigh, perhaps a tac light or fore grip? Nothing you need right away. There really isn’t one thing I can point out that makes this gun so great, it is a combination of everything. when it comes down to it the ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle kind of has it all going for it. I am looking forward to seeing just how well it performs during my Indoor Field Test. I have high hopes!

This is a bit of a different test than my usual Indoor Field Test Shooting Video I make here in the Replica Airguns indoor shooting range. I don’t test the feet per second with my Chronograph, I don’t test how accurate each gun is shooting in semi auto. Instead this Full Auto BB Rifle comparisons is to find out which Full Auto BB rifle has the highest rate of fire and which one stays on target the best shooting 25 rounds in full auto, all in one burst.

The guns I use of this Full Auto BB Rifle Full Auto Rate of Fire and Accuracy Test are:

• Crosman DMPS SBR Full Auto BB Rifle

• Crosman AK1 Full Auto BB Rifle

• Umarex Legends Thompson M1A1 Full Auto BB Rifle

• Umarex Legends MP Full Auto BB Rifle

• KWC Mini UZI Full Auto BB Gun

Make sure to watch my Vimeo Full Auto BB Rifle Full Auto Rate of Fire and Accuracy Comparison to see how they compare!

It was a decent day today, not too cold and not raining at least at the time I and ethics video :) I figured with my new Insta60 One R and iVUE Vista cameras it would be a great day to test them out outside shooting with my G&G SMC-9 Full Auto Airsoft Carbine. I like the bak for more regulated Indoor Field Tests, these outside usually clay pigeon shooting videos are a lot more fun and I think a nice break for everyone.

So in this video I have three cameras rolling and switch camera switch back and forth throughout the video to make the experience more immersive. I have cameras setup front and back (Sony RX100 IV in front & Sony HDR-AS15 Back), along with my iVUE camera glasses and my Insta360 One R mounted to the barrel of my G&G SMC-9. All in all I think the video turned out well. It may be time to upgrade my Sony Action Camera as it is probably the oldest camera in my collection and you can see in the video it does not look as good as the other cameras.

I made a video a little bit ago talking about how Canada’s new Bill C-21 will affect pretty every gun owner in Canada including even airgun owners of BB, Pellet Airsoft and even Paintball Guns. Make sure to watch that video first called Bill C-21 Canada is Going After Your Red Ryder BB Gun.

This video is all about how you can get involved in making some waves by signing two online petitions along with contacting your local Member of Parliament and letting them know your disapproval of Bill C-21 and all that it imposes on law abiding Canadian gun owners.

Probably the most important online petition to sign would be the House of Commons Petition E-3201 Bill C-21 so make sure to sign that one!

The other online e-petition we need to sign is the change.org petition.

And lastly but also super important is to send an email to your local member of Parliament again let them know your disapproval of Bill C-21. I have included a link to the web[age where you can locate your local MP and below that is a template of what you could include in your email to them.

Dear (MP),

I am a constituent in your riding. I am writing to you to voice my concerns over the new provisions that were announced under the proposed Bill C-21, and how this will impact myself, my community and many other Canadians.

"Criminal Code 1 (1) The definition replica firearm in subsection 84(1) of the Criminal Code is replaced by the following:

replica firearm means any device that is designed or intended to exactly resemble, or to resemble with near precision, a firearm that is designed or adapted to discharge a shot, bullet or other projectile at a muzzle velocity exceeding 152.4 m per second and at a muzzle energy exceeding 5.7 Joules, and that itself is not a firearm, but does not include any such device that is designed or intended to exactly resemble, or to resemble with near precision, an antique firearm; (réplique)

(2) Section 84 of the Act is amended by adding the following after subsection (3.1): Certain firearms deemed to be prohibited devices

(3.2) For the purposes of sections 99 to 101, 103 to 107 and 117.03, a firearm is deemed to be a prohibited device if

(a) it is proved that the firearm is not designed or adapted to discharge a shot, bullet or other projectile at a muzzle velocity exceeding 152.4 m per second or at a muzzle energy exceeding 5.7 Joules; and (b) the firearm is designed or intended to exactly resemble, or to resemble with near precision, a firearm, other than an antique firearm, that is designed or adapted to discharge a shot, bullet or other projectile at a muzzle velocity exceeding 152.4 m per second and at a muzzle energy exceeding 5.7 Joules."

The long and short of it, Bill C-21 is an attack on law abiding Canadian gun owners and goes so far as to include the Daisy Red Ryder BB gun and many other Airguns as a Prohibited Firearm in Canada.

I am not a Lawyer or Bureaucrat so this video is my personal take on how I perceive the new Gun laws and Bill C-21. Please do your own investigation on these new laws and come to your own conclusions.

I don’t ask this often, please like and share this video with as many people as you can in Canada and outside of Canada. This is a new level of attack on Canadian Gun rights and we need to stand up for our gun rights or there will be no more guns in Canada eventually. This could happened in your country and has already happened in many others.

So how did we get here… Back in May of 2020 Trudeau (without going through Parliament) banned some 1500 (what he referred to as) Assault rifles. For the most part but not exclusive to, anything that looks scary with a semi auto action. Many rifles with semi auto actions that did not look scary where not on this banned list. Some bolt action rifles and even shotguns made it to this banned list of guns deemed by Trudeau as dangerous Assault Rifles.

Bill C-21 is now going after handguns in a similar capacity along with any Airgun that looks like a Firearm. 

In this video I am going to focus mainly on the Airgun side of how Bill C-21 effects Canadians so we are talking about BB Guns, Pellet Guns, Airsoft Guns, even Paintball Guns. But do understand if you own a handgun or even a rifle, Bill C-21 is coming after many of those guns as well making them literally impossible to own and use in any capacity other than keeping them in a safe at all times until you die in which it has to be relinquished without payment to the government.

How does Bill C-21 effect Airguns? Previously most Airguns where classified as Firearms but where unregulated so they didn’t require registration or even a Firearms license to sell, buy, own or use. Bill C-21 wants to make any Airgun that looks like a firearm (other than an antique firearm) prohibited. This means you will not be able to import, sell, or buy them in Canada. You will be able to keep your existing Prohibited Airguns but with extensive limitations on how you can keep and use them. Basically no use at all.

For the most part you will want to keep your now prohibited Airguns in a gun safe at home at all times or you risk having them confiscated from you since if you are transporting or using an Airgun, the police have the right to ask you to produce a Prohibited Firearms license which if I am not mistaken has not been made available since 1991, so the vast majority of gun owners especially none license holding Airgun owners do not have a Prohibited Firearms license nor is there any way to obtain such a license. How convenient!

Who does Bill C-21 effect? Firearms in Canada is a Multi Billion dollar industry and Airguns are an ever growing part of that industry. Bill C-21 effects Importers, Wholesalers, Retailers, Gun Ranges, Airsoft Fields, Gun Organizations, Gun Groups and of course every Firearm and Airgun owner in Canada. Bill C-21 wants to eliminate many aspects of the firearms Industry in Canada putting large and small business out of business. Replica Airguns will be gone if Bill C-21 passes in Canada, a business I founded and have been part of for over 15 years affecting many employees, families and of course customers.

How will Bill C-21 by eliminating the vast majority of Airguns in Canada keep Canadians safer and save lives as it proposes? I’m tryin to wrap my head around this one… So please tell me how many Pellet Rifles where used in mass shootings? How many drive by shootings involved Paintball guns? How many suicides have there been with BB pistols? How many police officers have died at the hands of an Airsoft wielding mad person? I’m going out on a limb here to say probably zero. And if any of these Airguns had been used in any of these situations that would have been a good thing because no lives would have been lost perhaps except for the user of the Airgun.

I want to end this video off with an example and an analogy of just exactly how ridiculous Bill C-21 is and how it will do absolutely zero to protect Canadians from criminals.

• Daisy Red Ryder BB Rifle (1940) Will now be a Prohibited Firearm in Canada

• Crosman 38T Pellet Revolver (1964) Will now be a Prohibited Firearm in Canada

• Crosman 357 Pellet Revolver (1983) Will now be a Prohibited Firearm in Canada

• Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Caliber Full Auto Machine Gun (Modern Airgun) Currently and even after Bill C-21 will be an Unregulated Firearm in Canada with no license or registration required.

Analogy of how Bill C-21 is supposed to Make Canadians Safer:

Bill C-21 is going after law abiding Licensed and Registered gun owners and only allowing them to keep their now Prohibited Guns but not allowed them to use their prohibited guns in any capacity. Prohibited guns must be in a safe at all times unloaded and locked. You are not allowed to transfer them anywhere, you are not allowed to sell, loan or give them to another person, and upon death the prohibited gun/s must be relinquish to the Government. According to Bill C-21 this is apparently going to help stop non license holding non gun registered criminals from committing gun related crimes that for the most part do not obtain their firearms legally.

This is like saying that ICBC (Canadas Vehicle Insurance Agency) has looked into motor vehicle accidents and found that a high majority of vehicle accidents are caused by people that do not have drivers licenses and that do not have registered or insured vehicles, furthermore ICBC has come to the conclusion that vehicles related to these accidents often times are import sedans that have been lowered and tuned. So in order to reduce car accidents ICBC will be focusing on drivers with drivers licenses and registered and license vehicles that fit this description and any other vehicle they deem a possible threat , these registered and licensed vehicle owners will still be allowed to own their vehicles that fit this criteria and have them registered but they will not be allowed to drive their vehicle/s anymore. Their vehicle/s must be kept in the garage at all times and never driven. You can not sell or loan your vehicle/s to anyone and these vehicle/s will not be allowed to be imported, bought or sold anymore in Canada. Once you die your vehicle/s are relinquished by the Government without payment no matter what their assessed value.

In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see if the real world performance matches the manufacturers claims. I first place 5 rounds through my Chronograph using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s with a fully gassed up extended magazine to find out what the actual FPS is. I then shoot 10 rounds from a seated and rested shooting position into a fresh paper target setup 30 feet down range to see just what we can expect and then just for fun I shoot the 40 rounds left in the 50 round magazine in full auto to see how this also effects accuracy.

Starting with my Chronograph test, the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine averaged 339 FPS with the fastest shot recorded at 350 fps and the slowest being 324 fps, so very consistent in terms of sustained fps during my Chronograph velocity testing. The velocity was a bit under the claimed 366-375 fps but I was using slightly heavier BB’s and it wasn’t super warm temperatures in the Sea Can on this testing day, around room temperature, (20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit).

Moving onto the accuracy testing for the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine, it performed pretty decent shooting about a 10 round 4 inch grouping but if I removed two flyers top and bottom the grouping would have been loser to 1.5 inches. The grouping was well centered on the target but I did adjust the sights up a bit as initially out of the box the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine was shooting fairly low at 30 feet out. The good news is the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine has fully adjustable sights for windage and elevation along with the 120 clicks of hop-up adjustment. When it came to my full auto testing I found I was shooting really low, perhaps from the blowback recoil pushing me of target? This was the case at least when I did a 40 round mag dump. When I performed the test using shorter bursts I was able to keep more rounds centered on the target for sure but accuracy in full auto was not nearly as good as in semi auto because of the heavy blowback.

Over all the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine performed decent for me, the velocity was bang on right around what is claimed by G&G allowing this GBB Airsoft Carbine to shoot targets at further out ranges. Accuracy in semi auto was also very good but again shooting in full auto will take a bit more of your attention keeping the blowback recoil under control, for this reason burst fire in full auto will give you better accuracy which is more than likely how you would be shooting the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine anyways. I really like the diversity you get with the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine and if you are into Gas Blowback Airsoft guns, then I feel you get similar performance to an AEG but with a lower capacity magazines, but then again I may just have to get my hands on a drum magazine for the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine and see how that changes things.
