This one’s really growing on me because it’s not your standard AR platform. We review a lot of AR-style rifles (and there’s nothing wrong with ARs, they’re popular for a reason), but this one has a very different vibe. It’s based on the SA80 British service rifle design and comes in a compact bullpup layout that gives you a long inner barrel without needing a long overall rifle.
Today’s Table Top Review is the G&G L85A2 (A2 version) ETU Airsoft AEG Rifle — and yes, a full Shooting / Field Test Video will be coming shortly. I definitely want to get this one out and properly test it.
This model is available in our Canada store. At the time of recording this review, it wasn’t available in the US store, but I’ll add an equivalent/similar US option (or a list of comparable AEG rifles) in the post links.

Cleaning rod
Product brochure / extra paperwork
Transport muzzle cover / cap
Manual access via QR scan (links to G&G’s online manual)
Walk Around Notes:
A few highlights from handling it up close:
Bullpup layout: compact overall, but the barrel/inner barrel length is still substantial.
Sighting system: the carry handle doubles as the rear sight platform with flip apertures.
Optics compatibility: you can mount an optic on the top rail, but you’ll likely want a riser so your eye line sits naturally.
Dust cover + hop-up access: you can open the cover and access hop-up adjustments the normal AEG way.
Charging handle note: my rifle did not come with the charging handle piece. I checked my unboxing footage and it wasn’t on there and it wasn’t in the box. It’s not essential for function, but at this price point it’s something you’ll want to confirm is included on yours.
Battery Compartment:
The battery area is under the handguard, and here’s the main downside:
If you’re running a larger battery, you’ll likely need to remove hardware (including the sling mount and a bolt) to open the lower handguard section.
With smaller nunchuck-style batteries, you may be able to fit them in with less disassembly, but bigger packs will probably require tools.
So yes: it works, but it’s not a quick tool-free battery swap design.
Quick Function Check:
I did a quick dry-fire demo using a 9.6V battery, and honestly it felt a bit underpowered/odd (some partial taps and inconsistent behavior). That could be the battery itself (mine was not great), but I would suggest this rifle will really come alive with a proper 11.1V LiPo and hope to use this setup in the field test video.
I’ve seen demos where the rate of fire is very high using an 11.1V setup, so that’s what I’ll be testing with for the shooting video.
Pros:
Lots of metal in the construction with a super solid weight, feel, and balance
Unique bullpup British-style rifle (not just another AR build)
Simulated blowback adds a bit of feedback vs. standard AEGs
Works with AR/M4-style AEG magazines (easy to find replacements/midcaps/highcaps)
Good optics flexibility on the top rail (carry handle sight system included, or add your own)
Programmable fire mode: Full Auto or 3-round burst
No orange tip (and if you prefer one for visibility, you can always add your own)
Cons:
Limited accessory mounting options (mostly just the top rail; not a modern “add rails everywhere” setup)
Battery access can require tools and disassembly, especially for larger batteries
Priced on the higher side (around $600+ CAD)
My sample was missing the charging handle part, check yours when it arrives
Final Thoughts:
This is a really nice AEG. It feels premium in the hands, the two-tone green looks great, and it’s a cool change from the sea of AR platforms, while still keeping things practical with AR-style AEG mag compatibility.
The simulated blowback isn’t going to replace the feel of a true gas blowback rifle, but it’s a nice touch, and paired with the ETU/MOSFET system and upgraded internals, it helps justify why this model sits in a higher price bracket.
Next up: the field test / shooting video, ideally with a proper 11.1V battery so we can see what this rifle really does when it’s running at its best.
In this Table Top Review, we’re taking a detailed look at the G&G ESG B-10 2.0 Gas Airsoft Shotgun. This is a very unique Airsoft platform, as it’s fully gas powered—no spring, no AEG system, and no blowback. Just straight gas operation.
Gas-powered Airsoft shotguns are fairly rare, and this one stands out even more because it’s essentially a semi-automatic gas shotgun capable of firing five or ten BBs per trigger pull. That makes it a serious close-quarters option and something I’m genuinely excited to field test.
As always, this is a Table Top Review only. A full Shooting / Field Test Video will be coming later, where we’ll see how it performs in real-world use.
Links to purchase this product in Canada and the US will be included in the video description.

In the Box:
G&G ESG B-10 2.0 Gas Airsoft Shotgun
105-round AR-style mid-cap magazine
Product brochure
(Manual not present in this package, but typically included or available online)
The shotgun comes packaged in a large box with a sleeve that differentiates the 2.0 version from the original B-10.
Design & Layout:
The ESG B-10 2.0 uses a bullpup layout, which keeps the overall length short while still allowing for a reasonably long inner barrel. Despite its compact size, the gun feels very solid and heavy, likely due to its internal gas system and metal components.
Notable design features include:
Picatinny rails on the top and both sides
Ambidextrous selector switch for 5- or 10-shot bursts
Ambidextrous magazine release
QD sling mounts front and rear
Non-orange flash hider
Polymer butt plate with internal gas reservoir
Because of the low rail height relative to the grip, you’ll almost certainly want to install some form of optic or sight to get a usable sight picture.
Controls & Operation:
The selector switch serves as both the safety and burst selector, allowing you to choose between five or ten BBs per trigger pull. It’s ambidextrous and easy to reach from either side.
One thing worth noting is how the selector cycles internally. There can be a one-shot delay when switching between modes, meaning the first pull after switching may still fire the previous burst count before changing over.
The trigger is double-action only, as there’s no blowback system. While heavier than a single-action trigger, it’s not excessive—especially considering the amount of ammunition being fired with each pull.
Magazine Compatibility:
The ESG B-10 2.0 uses standard AR/M4-style Airsoft magazines, including mid-caps and high-caps. It ships with a 105-round mid-cap, but you can easily use other compatible magazines from your collection.
The magazine locks in securely but does require a firm push to seat properly.
Gas System:
The gas reservoir is housed in the stock and holds a substantial amount of gas. Based on initial handling and other reviewers feedback, you should be able to fire multiple magazines before needing to refill, despite the high BB output per shot.
This is something we’ll fully confirm in the upcoming field test.
Pros:
Unique gas-powered semi-auto shotgun design
Fires 5 or 10 BBs per trigger pull
Strong metal construction with excellent weight and balance
Compact bullpup layout for close-quarters use
Compatible with standard AR/M4 Airsoft magazines
Efficient gas system despite high BB output
Multiple rail options for optics, lasers, and accessories
Sling-ready with front and rear QD mounts
No orange tip, preserving realistic appearance
High-quality G&G build at a reasonable price point
Cons:
A sight or optic is essentially mandatory for proper aiming
Double-action trigger is heavier than single-action designs
Higher price compared to common AR-style AEGs
No hop-up adjustment (typical for Airsoft shotguns)
Final Thoughts:
The G&G ESG B-10 2.0 Gas Airsoft Shotgun is a standout platform in the Airsoft world. Its ability to fire massive bursts of BBs with each trigger pull makes it an ideal close-quarters and room-clearing tool, while the bullpup design keeps it compact and maneuverable.
If you’re looking for something different from the usual AEG rifles, this gas shotgun offers a lot of fun, solid performance potential, and serious intimidation factor.
A full shooting and field test video is coming soon.
I was away for a bit on a well needed vacation in Kona Hawaii but I’m back now and ready to dive back into things so get ready for more reviews! In this December Massive Mystery Unboxing, I crack open a stack of newer Airsoft and BB guns that landed in the Replica Airguns inventory. Full shooting reviews are coming later – this is your quick spec rundown so you can see what’s what at a glance.

If you want the full tabletop details on the G&G RK Beta AK AEG, check my Table Top Video, it covers features, controls and build in close-up. For this Field Test Shooting Video I moved into the Replica Airguns indoor sea-can range to run practical checks: chronograph testing to measure real-world velocity with field-weight BBs, then live-fire accuracy checks in both semi-auto and sustained full-auto to see how it behaves under realistic use.
Starting with the chrono work, for the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle I ran seven shots through my Chronograph using .25-gram BBs (I usually test with the slightly heavier .25s because they better represent what players use in the field rather than ultra-light test rounds). G&G rates the rifle at about 390 fps with .20-gram BBs, so I expected a lower result with .25g ammo, which is exactly what I got. My seven-shot string read: 371, 372, 370, 371, 349, 369 and 370, an average of about 367 fps. Only one shot dropped below 350 fps and the rest clustered right around 370, so velocity was consistent and predictable for a field setup and close to the claimed 390 even with heavier rounds.
For accuracy I placed a fresh pepper target to my ammo trap at 30 feet and fired a 10-round semi-rested string: hands braced on a sandbag up front and seated on a stool at the rear for a repeatable hold. Out of the box, using the open sights, I put most shots into a tight ~1.5-inch group with just one flyer just outside the main cluster. Hits were slightly high and a touch right of center, not surprising given there’s essentially no refined rear sight on this sample, so I was eyeballing the aim a bit. I then switched to full auto and basically shot until the spring tension softened, well over 100 rounds went into the trap. As expected the group opened up under sustained fire, but impacts still concentrated in roughly the same zone as the 10-shot semi-auto grouping earlier, roughly a 3-inch spread overall. Imagine how much tighter those strings would get with a proper optic or red dot fitted.
My take: it’s refreshing to test out an AK-style AEG instead of another AR-variant, the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle feels beefier and more planted, and that solid construction pays off in handling and perceived durability. The chrono numbers and on-target accuracy with .25g BBs put the rifle right in the sweet spot for short-to-mid-range field work, and performance remained respectable even without a precision sighting system. You’ll want to add a red dot or other optic to unlock the rifle’s full potential, but if you’re after a compact, rugged AK AEG that shoots consistently and groups well under both semi and full auto, the G&G RK Beta AK is worth any extra outlay.
If you want the complete specs and a tabletop walk-through for the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol-Caliber Carbine, watch my Table Top Video where I cover build, controls and features in close detail. For this Field Test Shooting Video I moved into the Replica Airguns indoor sea-can range to put the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine through practical shooting checks, chrono testing for real-world velocity and live shooting to see how it groups in both semi-auto and full-auto. The sea-can gives a repeatable, controlled environment that’s ideal for comparing performance to other AEGs I’ve tested.
For velocity I ran six shots through my Chronograph using .25-gram BBs — I generally prefer the slightly heavier .25s for testing because they better represent practical use than lighter .20 gram rounds. G&G’s spec is about 380 fps with .20-gram BBs, so I anticipated a lower number with .25s and that’s exactly what I saw. My six-shot string read 344, 342, 342, 342, 341 and 341, which averaged out to 342 fps. Those readings were very consistent with multiple duplicates in the string, so the ARP9’s output was predictable and stable for an AEG running typical field BBs.
Next I moved to accuracy: I placed a fresh pepper target to the trap at 30 feet and shot 10 rounds from a semi-rested position, hands braced on a sandbag up front, seated on a stool at the rear for a stable, repeatable hold. The main cluster landed just left of the bullseye; the densest portion of the group was roughly 1 inch and the overall group measured just over 2 inches. That tells me the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine is more than capable of tight, repeatable groups when shot carefully. I then switched to full auto and ran a mag dump of about 58 rounds from a full rest. As you’d expect the group opened up and shifted a bit (likely from my hold changing during sustained fire), but most hits still stayed within approximately a 2-inch radius, which is impressive for a compact, high-rate AEG under sustained fire.
My hands-on impression is that the ARP9 3.0P hits a very useful sweet spot: it’s compact and maneuverable for CQB but doesn’t feel like it gives up accuracy or usable range compared to larger AEG platforms. With the factory wide-open rear aperture I was getting solid contact on target, putting a red dot or small optic on the top rail would tighten things further and make follow-ups easier. Power and consistency are right where I’d want them for a short-to-mid-range compact rifle, and while it’s not the cheapest AEG on the market it feels well made and worth the price for anyone after a versatile, high-quality compact AEG. If you want both a practical CQB carbine and a reliable field performer, the ARP9 3.0P is definitely worth considering.
Type:AEG Airsoft Rifles Manufacturer: G&G. Model:G&G ARP9 3.0P Materials: Metal and plastic. Weight: 4.4 pounds (2 kg). Total Length: 16.5/21.3 inches (42/54 cm). Barrel: 5 inches (12.8 cm) barrel non-rifled. Propulsion: AEG. Action: Single action semi & 3 round burst. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s. Ammunition Capacity: Mid cap 68 round four channel magazine. FPS: 380 fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine is short and light as it is basically a simple electric on/off switch that completes a circuit and tells the motor to turn, this then activates the cycling of the spring piston. For this reason there is no real creep or feel of a release. When you get to a preset point in the trigger, the motor circuit is closed allowing for either semi or burst shooting modes, depending on your selector switch position at the time.The G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine does have a Vertical Trigger For Enhanced Shooting Control .
Accuracy: I will be making a dedicated Field Test Shooting Video for the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine to find out what the real word velocity is in fps. I will also test the accuracy shooting a paper target in both semi and full auto setup 30 feet away. For now I have no idea what to expect but as this is most certainly not a low cost Airsoft AEG Rifle, I am hoping for good results and generally with G&G products they perform well in testing.
Build Quality: The build quality of the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine is good, G&G Airsoft Rifles in general are well built and comparable to higher priced Airsoft rifles in terms of overall quality. The receiver is plastic but the weight feels good adn there is metal in the sights, hinges, trigger, magazine release, selector switch, magazine release, bolt release, dust cover, charging handled, the barrel assembly and other internal components.
Realism: The G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine is a 1 to 1 scale Airsoft reproduction of thea troika compact ARP9. I’m not sure if it is based on exactly one specific brand or type, but is more or less a stylized version designed and built by G&G. Most of the mechanical parts work similar to a real steel version so for training purposes it would function similarly. There is no recoil as it is an AEG Airsoft Rifle.
Pros:
Nice and compact fro any CQB style shooting.
Very sturdy polymer receiver.
Quad channel magazine for flawless BB loading.
Pre-Installed ETU 2.0 (Electronic Trigger Unit) And a programmable MOSFET that protects the battery from over-discharge.
Short M-LOK Rail System for easy attachment of tactical accessories, along with recessed threads for flash hiders or tracers.
Non-Retractable, side folding stock, allowing for seamless movement in CQB situations. Also conceals the battery.
Programmable firing modes: Full Auto Or 3-Round Burst.
Quick Change Spring Guide For Fast FPS Adjustment.
Cons:
No battery and charger included.
Lower capacity mid cap magazine requires more frequent loading.
Battery size limitations.
Comments:
The G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Pistol Caliber Airsoft Carbine would be perfect if you’re looking fro a full features AR styled AEG but want it in a more compact format. Not only is the magazine a lot less bulky but the entire Airsoft rifle is setup to be short and light weight with its folding stock and super short barrel. I hope the smaller size does not affect performance in any way but we will find out when I get to my Field Test Shooting video for it down the road. I do really like the l look and size and feel it is a very unique product suitable for just about any situation.
In this Unboxing Video I checkout a mid sized mystery box and find some new products inside that I will be making future Table Top and Field Test Shooting Videos for. In this Unboxing Preview Video I mainly talk a look at each item mostly for the fist time and I go over some of the basics for each of them. IN my upcoming full review videos I will go way more into detail so make sure to watch those videos when they come out.
So what did I get in this months box of goodies? The first item I unpacked was the KJWorks 1911-TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. A firmly traditional 1911 with a single stack magazine configuration at least in terms of external size. I am pretty sure the actual Airsoft BB’s will stack side by side to some degre as it does hold 24 rounds. It also comes with a barrel extension and the ability to add a much suppresser to it to cover the barrel extension I would imagine. It is also available in an OD green receiver version.
The next item I grabbed from the box was the NcSTAR FlipDot Mod. 02 Flip-up Red Dot Sight specifically designed with a MOS compatible mounting plate for Glock Pistols like the new Umarex Glocks I checked out at this years SHOT Show. You can mount this compact Flip-up Red Dot sight directly to the slide of these new Glocks and it also comes with some adaptor plate option for attaching it to a Picatinny Rail.
The next item I took a look at was the Umarex Combat Zone Enforcer Airsoft Pistol. A low cost adn simplistic mostly plastic CO2 powered lightweight Airgun with an all metal 15 round stick magazine and a 400 fps claimed velocity. It’s not going to be the most exciting Airgun but there is very little to go wrong and being so light weight makes it super durable in the even of a drop or fall.
Last but perhaps the oust interesting item that came in this months mystery box was the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Airsoft Rifle. I kind of butchered the name but I do talk a pretty good look at it in they video. The G&G ARP9 3.0P is a compact AEG Rifle (at least with the stock folded out). It has a unique magazine where the Airsoft BB’s load into 4 separate channels, I am assuming this helps to get more ammo in the magazine (300 rounds) and make it smoother so hopefully less or no jamming. The G&G ARP9 3.0P feels solid in the hand and well made, it also has a claimed velocity of 370 fps which is perfect.
I look forward to making my full Table Top and Shooting Review videos of each of these items so make sure to check back if you are interested in any of them…
Type:AEG Airsoft Rifles Manufacturer: G&G. Model:RK Beta AK Materials: Mostly metal/some plastic. Weight: 7.1 pounds (3.2 kg). Total Length: 28.5 inches (72.4 cm). Barrel: 9 inches (22.9 cm) barrel non-rifled. Propulsion: AEG. Action: Single action semi & full auto. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s. Ammunition Capacity: High cap 600 round magazine. FPS: 390 fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle is short and light as it is basically a simple electric on/off switch that completes a circuit and tells the motor to turn, which activates the cycling of the spring piston. For this reason there is no real creep or feel of a release. When you get to a preset point in the trigger, the motor circuit is closed allowing for either semi or full auto, depending on your selector switch position at the time.
Accuracy: I will be making a dedicated Field Test Shooting Video for the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle to find out what the actual velocity is in fps. I will also test what kind of accuracy I can get shooting a paper target in both semi and full auto from 30 feet away. For now I have no idea what to expect but as this is most certainly not a cheap Airsoft AEG Rifle, I am hoping for good results to justify the higher price point.
Build Quality: The build quality of the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle is very good, G&G Airsoft Rifles in general are well built. You are going to find metal in most of this AEG Airsoft Rifle including the receiver, dust cover, trigger guard, trigger, selector switch, barrel, front and rear sights and the magazine. The only plastic to be found will be in the pistol grip, rear stock and 3 of the picatinny rails. Fit and finish is very good but the stock and pistol grip material does seem to show scratches really easily.
Realism: The G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle is a 1 to 1 scale Airsoft reproduction of the AK 47/74 in a compact modernized version. I don’t believe it is based on exactly one specific brand or type of AK 47 or AK 74, but is more or less a stylized version designed and built by G&G. The G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle does have a lot of metal and weight to it adding to the realism and most of the mechanical parts work similar to a real steel version of an AK 47/74. G&G has added a bit of a bolt cycle motion with a motor that actuates it to some degree but this is not like the look and feel of a real internal bolt from an actual AK 47/74. Still a nice touch.
Pros:
Lots of metal in construction where you need it with good overall weight and feel.
6 rail attachment options up front for lots of mounting positions.
Left side option to attach an additional AK style sight mount.
Adjustable front sight for elevation.
Nice and compact for easy maneuverability.
Rear stock has lots of room for battery sizes and options.
Dust cover comes off for easy access to internals.
G&G high quality build.
Comes with sling mounting options.
Super easy hopup adjustment slider.
Nice high capacity 600 round metal magazine.
No orange tip.
Cons:
Rear sight is all but useless.
Stock and grip scratch really easily.
Priced on the higher side.
Comments:
The G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle may be priced a bit on the high side for some people but it is a solid AEG Airsoft Rifle and it seems there are not as many AK options out there so it is nice to have an offering from G&G. I like the almost full metal construction and I find the modernized styling and compact size to be appealing and would make it a great option for CQB Airsoft games. I am not sure what is going on with the rear site, as it looks like it is a sight, but does not have the sight grove in it? Maybe I am missing something here but other than opting to put a red dot way up front, your only other option is to put an AK side rail and mount a sight on the rear just above the metal dust cover. I am hoping when I make my Field Test Shooting Video for the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle, it performs well for me to justify the higher price point.
My Vimeo Table Top Review for the G&G RK Beta AK AEG Airsoft Rifle:
Here we go with another unboxing video this month, and this is a big box, so no doubt the mystery items are going to be big too! As always with new products, I will be following up with dedicated Table Top and Field Test Videos for each of them so make sure to check down the road for those videos for a lot more information and actual performance results…
Don’t look below if you want to just watch the video and be surprises by what’s inside the mystery box but if you want a quick peak before hand then checkout the basic specs below for all three new items I will be reviewing soon.
In this Field Test Review Shooting Video I take the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol through its paces to find out what we can expect in terms of velocity and accuracy. I perform two main tests, the Chronograph Test where I shoot around 5 rounds and average them out to see what the real world fps is and then I shoot 10 rounds at a paper taggert setup 30 feet downrange to see how tight of a grouping I can achieve with the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol. I don’t talk much about the specifications and details in this video so if you are interested in that information you can watch my Table Top Video for this Airsoft Pistol here.
Starting first with the Chronograph Velocity Test I loaded .20 gram Airsoft BB’s into both of the supplied magazines and filled them up with propane gas. Often times because the valves may be tuned just a bit differently, you can expect each magazine to shoot a slightly different velocities or fps. This was the case with the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol as the shorter double stack 25 round magazine averaged 353 fps while the longer single stack 20 round magazine shot a 328 average fps. So 25 fps difference between the two.
Moving on to the accuracy portion of the test I was able to get close to a two inch grouping fairly well centered shooting at a fresh paper target setup 30 feet away from a rested shooting position with my hands on a sand bag up front and sitting in the back. I was having some problems with the shorter double stack 25 round magazine not chambering rounds consistently which meant I had to reset my shooting position many times but even so I was able to get close to a two inch grouping. I did load up a different 25 round magazine from another Piranha Airsoft Pistol I had around and this magazine shot perfectly without any chambering problems so there must be something not exactly right with the short magazine that came with my G&G Piranha SL.
Other than the feeding issue I had for the double stack 25 round short magazine that came with my G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol, the Airsoft gun performed well. It for sure made for an entertaining video spraying Airsoft BB’s all over the Sea Can and trying o figure out why the Airsoft Pisotl was not working as it should. Such is life and at the end of the day it was simply something going on with the one magazine which seemed ot have a problem releasing the Airsoft BB’s into the gas chamber. All that was needed was a new magazine and we where back in business!
Type: Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer: G&G Model: Piranha SL Materials: Metal & Polymer. Weight: 1.85 pounds (838 grams). Length: 10.3 inches (262mm) total. Barrel: 5.6 inches (142.5mm),Metal non-rifled smooth bore. Propulsion: Green gas or propane. Action: Blowback, single action only. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 20/25rounds. FPS: 370+ fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol is typical single action only with a super easy short take up (some of which is the trigger safety engaging), followed by a crisp predictable light release. The quick slide cycle allows for some quick semi auto shooting with the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol making it a great fast action shooter with quick target acquisition.
Accuracy: I have not done my actual Field Test Shooting video review for the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol but I expect it to perform similar to the G&G Piranha MK I and TR GBB Airsoft Pistol I made a Field Test Shooting Video for earlier and shoot consistently in the mid to high 300 fps with a 10 round grouping around 1-2 inches. Stay posted for my Field Test Shooting Video where I will confirm these predictions…
Build Quality: Like pretty much all G&G Airsoft guns including the Piranha series, the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol build quality is really good. Fit and finish are excellent with virtually zero slide wiggle, I like the two tone stainless slide and chrome finish barrel version but the all black looks really good too. As with the entire Piranha line, the SL also has an updated Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve technology from G&G that should significantly help with freezing in colder or fast shooting situations along with a new Hop-up system you can easily adjust without taking the Airsoft gun apart by using the bullet shaped tool.
Realism: The G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol as far as I can determines not an exact replica of any specific real steel gun in production but it does share its looks and feel to that of the Glock but perhaps with an even more modernized look to it. Of course the SL version is elongates. You will find realistic function to the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistoling terms of it’s operation with its full blowback action, working slide catch release, magazine release trigger safety and takedown lever allowing for it to be field stripped easily.
Pros:
Good balance of metal and plastic for a balanced and light feel.
Partial slide Blowback operation should allow for even better gas performance and snappy operation.
Fiber optic sights front and back for easy target acquisition.
Has a working trigger safety.
Smaller grips perfect for people with smaller hands. Larger hands work just fine too!
Comes in a well presented soft foam form fitted box case.
New Hop-up system for quick and easy fine adjustments with no need to field strip the gun.
Long bottom rail for adding accessories.
Comes in all black and two tone black and sliver.
Comes with two magazines (20 round short and 25 round extended with fake bullets)
Comes with high quality speed loader.
Threaded barrel tip for add on mock suppressor if you want to.
Cons:
Sights are non adjustable.
Not an actual replica of any specific gun I know of but does share some Glock attributes.
Wish the extended mag held more rounds?
I like the hard shell case better that comes with the other Piranha versions.
Comments:
The G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol is for sure the flashiest version of the Piranha series of G&G Airsoft Pistols with its extended barrel and extended magazine with the fake bullets. I also imagine the extra barrel length will add some addition fps to the velocity and we will find out when I make my Field Test Shooting Video for it shortly. I am hoping the extended magazine holds more than an addition 5 rounds but again we are going to find out in my my Field Test Video so be sure to watch that one! If you don’t mind the additional bulk of the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol over the MK 1 and TR than you will get an extra magazine and I a bit higher velocity.
My Table Top Review Video of the G&G Piranha SL GBB Airsoft Pistol:
I have a nice Airgun Pistol Update Unboxing video to checkout where I take a look at 5 Airguns four of which are Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistols and one is a CO2 BB Revolver. I don’t go into a lot of details here on each Airgun as this is mainly just a preview video to let everyone know we have these products in our Online Replica Airgun Stores and give a you a quick look at them. I will be following up with individual Table Top and Field Test Videos where I go into more details and also show you how each gun performs in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Shooting Range.
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.
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.
Type: Gas Blowback Airsoft Carbine. Manufacturer: G&G Model: SMC-9 Materials: Metal/Aluminum & Polymer. Weight: 4.7 pounds (2125 grams). Length: 410/620mm folded/unfolded length Hop-up: Yes - 120 click adjustment. Propulsion: Green gas or propane. Action: Semi & Full AutoBlowback, single action only. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 50 rounds. FPS: 366-375 fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine is typical single action only with a soft short take-up and light release point. I would not call this a crips trigger since it does have a rather spongy feel to it but this is only noticeable when you are easing the trigger slowly. In reality you will be engaging the trigger quickly when shooting it on the field and won’t notice any of the creep or take-up. I would consider it to be a decent trigger pull over all.
Accuracy: I have not done my actual Field Test Shooting video review for the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine but as with most of my Full auto Airguns I find it hard not resist going outside and blasting off at least one magazine in full auto. Of course this was the case with the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine and I can tell you I went through all 50 rounds in not time and the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine rounds went exactly where I pointed the gun short and long range so I expect my Field Test Shooting video to produce good results.
Build Quality: The G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine feels amazing in the hand with a lot of metal going on in the upper Carbine conversion kit portion, the front rail assembly is CNC Aluminum and the Pop-up iron sights are actually metal. The rear fold out stock is plastic but it is sold and just like the rest of the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine very well made with great fit and finish. Of course the lower polymer frame is from the G&G GTP9 and just like all of the G&G pistols is very well made.
Realism: The G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine genuinely feels like a real steel firearm when holding it in the hand. Shooting it feels much the same but obviously with a lot less recoil than a powder burner. Just like a real steel 9mm Carbine the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine mechanically works virtually the same with working slide catch release, charging handles, magazine release, and duel safeties, all ambidextrous by the way. As expected you can fully field strip the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine.
Lots of metal parts giving the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine really good weigth and feel.
Fold out stock sits nice and tight using magnets when not in use.
Integrated QD sling swivel.
Comes with two different sized Back-straps to accommodate small and larger hands.
Super high capacity extended 50 round magazine that holds a ton of gas for consistent power and lots of shots per fill.
Converts the standard GTP9 semi auto pistol into a full auto Carbine.
Almost everything is ambidextrous.
CNC 20mm / MLOK Rail for lots of accessories options.
Actual metal pop-up fully adjustable sights.
Easy to adjust hop-up without disassembly.
Dual safety system, cross bolt on frame and trigger safety.
Cons:
Fold out stock is not adjustable which makes the sights are a bit tight.
Does not come with the pistol slide if you want to covert it back to the GTP9.
Comments:
I am a big fan of the full line of G&G Airsoft guns and so far their GBB pistol lineup has been a treat to review, adding their new G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine to the lineup for me is the perfect mix between their GBB Pistol lineup and their mostly AEG Rifle lineup. I am hoping to see if I can acquire the drum magazine and eventually see how that works with the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine, for now the 50 round extended magazine will have to do. Really looking forward to testing out the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine so stay posted for those results shortly!
My YouTube Table Top Review of the G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine:
In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the G&G Piranha MK I & TR GBB Airsoft Pistols in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see what the real world performance is for these very similar Airsoft Pistols. I first place 5 rounds through my Chronograph for each Airsoft Gun using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s with fully gassed up magazines to find out what the actual fps velocity is. I then shoot 10 rounds from a seated and rested shooting position into fresh paper targets setup 30 feet down range to see just what we can expect in terms of accuracy from the G&G Piranha series.
Starting with my Chronograph test, a placed 5 rounds through my Chronograph with both the G&G Piranha MK I and G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistols. Technically they should have performed nearly identical but not all guns are setup exactly the same out of the box and so the G&G Piranha MK I GBB Airsoft Pistol did shoot a bit hotter than the G&G Piranha & TR GBB Airsoft Pistol averaging 290 fps versus 257 fps. As a quick test I placed the magazine from the MK I into the TR and the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol did shoot much hotter and very close to the G&G Piranha MK resultsI. I would assume the valves in these magazines where perhaps not letting out the same amount of Gas hence the difference in velocity. The velocity was well under the claimed 370+but I was using slightly heavier BB’s and it was a little cold in the Sea Can on this testing day, not quite room temperature. Around 19 degrees Celsius or 66 degrees Fahrenheit.
Moving onto the accuracy testing for the G&G Piranha MK I & TR GBB Airsoft Pistols, they performed pretty well shooting 10 round 2 inch groupings with both Airsoft Pistols shooting on the money vertically while the G&G Piranha MK I shot a bit to the left and the G&G Piranha TR shooting well centered all around.
All in both of the G&G Piranha MK I & TR GBB Airsoft Pistols performed good for me, I would have liked to have seen the fps higher since both guns where well under the claimed 370+ fps but for close quarter shooting you should have no problem with either of them and again maybe your magazine will shoot a bit hotter than mine did. The partial blowback action is snappy and quick with just enough recoil action to give that realistic shooting experience. The triggers on the G&G Piranha MK I & TR GBB Airsoft Pistols are really nice allowing for quick tight followup shots and again if you like the look and feel of a Glock but perhaps want something a bit more unique then you will want to consider one of the G&G Piranha series Airsoft Pistols know doubt.
In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see what the real world performance is for this Beretta 92 styled G&G Airsoft Pistol. I first place 5 rounds through my Chronograph using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s with a fully gassed up 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 in terms of accuracy from the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol.
Starting with my Chronograph test, the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol averaged 275 FPS with the fastest shot recorded at 278 FPS and the slowest being 274 FPS, so very consistent in terms of sustained FPS doing my testing. The velocity was well under the claimed 366 but I was using slightly heavier BB’s and it was a little cold in the Sea Can on this testing day, not quite room temperature. Around 19 degrees Celsius or 66 degrees Fahrenheit.
Moving onto the accuracy testing for the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol, it performed pretty decent shooting about a 10 round 1.5 inch grouping if I removed one flyer that pulled a bit to the left. The grouping was a little bit low but well centered left and right so even though the sights are none adjustable I should be able to pull up the shot placement a bit using the hop-up adjustment.
All in all the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol performed well for me, I would have liked to see the FPS just a bit higher but for close quarter shooting you should have no problem with it. The blowback action is nice and firm and the typical Beretta single and double action trigger is true to form allowing for a round in the pipe with the hammer safely decocted but ready to go with a quick release of the safety and a double action pull of the first round. The G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol may be a bit bulky and heavy for some smaller handed shooter so keep that in mind.
Type: Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer: G&G Model: Piranha TR Materials: Metal & Polymer. Weight: 1.5 pounds (670 grams). Length: 7.8 inches total Barrel: 4.01 inches,Metal non-rifled smooth bore. Propulsion: Green gas or propane. Action: Blowback, single action only. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 25rounds. FPS: 370+ fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol is typical single action only with a easy short take up (some of which is the trigger safety engaging), followed by a crisp predictable light release. The quick slide cycle allows for quick semi auto shooting with the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol making it a great fast action shooter with quick target acquisition between shots.
Accuracy: I have not done my actual Field Test Shooting video review for the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol but I expect it to perform similar to most G&G Blowback Gas Operated Airsoft Pistols and shoot consistently in the mid 300 fps with a 10 round grouping around 1-2 inches. Stay posted for my Field Test Shooting Video where I hope to confirm these predictions in the Sea Can indoor Airgun Shooting Range.
Build Quality: Like most off theG&G Airsoft guns, the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol build quality is really nice. Fit and finish are excellent with virtually zero slide wiggle, you can also get the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol in a two tone stainless slide and chrome finish barrel that looks really sharp. It also has an updated Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve technology from G&G that should significantly help with freezing in colder or fast shooting situations along with a new Hop-up system you can easily adjust using a special tool without taking the Airsoft gun apart.
Realism: The G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol as far as I can determines not an exact replica of any specific real steel gun in production but it does share looks, size and feel to that of the Glock but perhaps with an even more modernized look to it. You will find realistic function to the G&G Piranha MK I GBB Airsoft Pistoling terms of it’s operation with its full blowback action, working slide catch release, magazine release trigger safety and takedown lever allowing for it to be easily and quickly field stripped.
Good balance of metal and plastic for a balanced and light feel.
Partial slide Blowback operation should allow for even better gas performance and snappy operation.
Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve should expect to get decent amount of shots per green gas fill.
White dot sights front and back.
Nice two tone slide.
Has a working trigger safety.
Smaller spit grip perfect for people smaller hands.
Comes with hard shell case.
New Hop-up system for quick and easy fine adjustments with no need to field strip the gun.
Dual 20mm top and bottom Rails for accessories.
Comes in all black and two tone black and sliver.
Comes with high quality speed loader
Threaded barrel tip for add on mock suppressor.
Cons:
Sights are non adjustable.
Not an actual replica of any specific gun I know of but does share some Glock attributes.
No actual frame safety other than the trigger safeties, (not always a bad thing).
Comments:
Overall I really like the new G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol, it has a really modern look to it yet has a familiar feel. The G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol is fairly light weight with that quick and snappy partial slide allowing for very quick follow up shots. Combine all of that with the new Gas saving Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve I expect the G&G Piranha TR GBB Airsoft Pistol to perform really well when in action. I like that you have the option of the more subdued all black version or if you like your guns to be a little bit more flashy you can also get it in the two tone with black and stainless version. The TR version over MK 1 does allow for optics on top which personally would not be my choice for this gun but it’s nice that you have this option.

My Table Top Review Video of the G&G Piranha MK I GBB Airsoft Pistol:
Type: Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer: G&G Model: GPM92 GP2 Materials: Metal slide & frame, real wood grips. Weight: 2.3 pounds (1040 grams). Length: 8.9 inches total Barrel: 4.6 inches,Metal non-rifled smooth bore. Propulsion: Green gas or propane. Action: Blowback, single and double action. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 28rounds. FPS: 366+ fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol is very good in both single and double action. Double action is a bit longer but not that much heavier when shooting in single action. Single action shooting is short, light and crisp as you would expect when shooting a real steel Beretta 92 style pistol.
Accuracy: I have not done my actual Field Test Shooting video review for the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol but it should perform similar to my earlier review of the G&G GPM92 GBB Airsoft Pistol where it performed fairly well shooting in the mid 300 fps with a nice under 1 inch 10 round shot placement for 30 feet down range.
Build Quality: Like pretty much all G&G Airsoft guns, the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol build quality is right inline. Fit and finish where excellent and a lot of attention to detail was seen all over this Replica Airsoft Pistol. It also has an updated Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve technology from G&G that should significantly help with freezing in colder or fast shooting situations along with a new Hop-up system you can easily adjust without taking the Airsoft gun apart.
Realism: The G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol is an excellent replica of the real steel Beretta Mod. 92FS, the safety even acts as a working de-cocker. You'll also find 5, 10, and 15 numbered markings on the backside of the magazine that would normally indicate how many bullets are in the magazine, a nice touch for sure! Everything works pretty much the same as it would on a real Beretta M9 including the ability to fully field strip the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol. I like the addition of th real wood grips that are a bit thicker than the plastic ones but if you ahed decent sized hands this shoudl not be a problem for you.
Ceramic Whirl Cylinder Valve should expect to get decent amount of shots per green gas fill.
White dot sights front and back.
Nice real wood grips.
Comes with hard shell case.
New Hop-up system for quick and easy fine adjustments with no need to field strip the gun.
20mm Rail for accessories.
comes in three different color schemes. Black, Silver, Gold.
Comes with high quality speed loader
Safety also works as a de-cocker.
Threaded removable barrel tip for add on mock suppressor.
Cons:
Sights are non adjustable.
Wood grips make the grips a bit thicker than plastic grips.
Price does go up especially if yo want the silver or gold version.
Comments:
I would have to say the new G&G GPM92 GP2 is one of the nicest Beretta Model 92FS Airsoft Pistols you are going to find out there, even a step up over the previous GPM92 model. There is a ton of attention to detail for sure, You also get the hard shell case with included high quality speed loader and G&G's updated Ceramic Valve and Revolutionary Whirl Cylinder Valve that help with freeze-up issues. It’s also nice that you no longer are required to filed strip the G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol in order to adjust hop-up and the real wood grips just really finish off this quality product from G&G.
