EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol Field Test Review

No Comments

In this Field Test Shooting Video I put the EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol through its paces to see how well it performs in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range. I first place 5 rounds through the chronograph to see what the actual real world velocity is and then I shoot 10 rounds on my paper target 30 feet downrange to see how tight of a grouping I can get with it.

For my Chronograph Test I was using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s so the velocity will be a little bit under the claimed 370 using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. The temperature was average, not hot or cold so right around room temperature. My 5 shot sting resulted in an average of 312 fps so I would guesstimate an additional 50-60 fps using the .20 gram BB’s since the Airsoft BB’s I was using where ab out 20% heavier than what was claimed. So 370 is for sure possible with the EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol.

Going onto my accuracy test, again I used the same .25 gram Airsoft BB’s and placed 10 rounds back to back into my fresh paper target setup 30 feet away. As usually I had my hands resting on a sand bag up front and I was sitting in the back which helps get a fairly stable shooting position but not without some human factor involved. I did manage to place 4 rounds right inside the 1.5 inch bullseye but 6 did come out with my last shot being a bit of a flyer hitting rather low on the target. If I removed the flyer form the equation the EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol did mange to shoot a 3 inch grouping. I do feel I can do better with this Airsoft pistol when I dial in the right Airsoft BB’s, hop-up and of course get a bit more use to shooting it.

All things considered, I really like the EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol! It has one of the best triggers I have ever reviewed with a nice combination of short take up and light predictable trigger release. The blowback action is fast yet not overwhelming and the overall feel of shooting this gun is very satisfying. Make sure to also checkout my Table Top Video Review for the EMG TTI STI 2011 Combat Master John Wick GBB Airsoft Pistol where I go into more details about the specifications and features along with some nice close up video.

Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine Review Update

No Comments

Apparently I got it all wrong when I did my original Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine Review and several of my viewers where not hesitant to let me know :)

I thought when I read the one mag instruction guide that I had a good idea on how to use it but there was one area I misunderstood. I thought I needed to pull the tab in and out several times to reload the magazine but in fact I only needed to pull it out once, then shale the magazine back and forth horizontally a few times and then I was good to go.

I also read some other comments that mentioned I didn’t have to take the magazine out every time I reloaded so in this video I test that out to make sure and then one last comment that rather than pulling the charging handle back each time I reloaded I could simply press the bolt release on the right side of the Airgun, and yes this is the case with the Crosman Full Auto rile series.

So here I go a second time in making sure I do it right this time!

Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine Review for DPMS - MPW - R1 - A4-P

No Comments

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.

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?

Watch my struggle a bit to figure out the exactly how to properly use the Crosman Full Auto Quick Reload Magazine and then quickly eat through 300 or so BB’s blasting pop cans down range!

Sig Sauer ASP MPX .177 Cal. Pellet Rifle Canada vs USA Version Field Test Comparison

No Comments

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.

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?

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!

Compact CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field Test Comparison PPKS - PPS M2 - Mod 84FS - P365 - BP9CC

No Comments

This may the one of the most Airguns I have tested out at the same time here in the Replica Airguns Indoor Shooting Range. It took a little bit longer than normal but I go through it with only one of the CO2 Blowback BB Pistols acting up juts a bit at the beginning. After a quick fix the rest of the show went on the road you could say!

What exactly was the purpose of testing out 5 CO2 Blowback BB Pistols all together? I wanted to compare my most compact CO2 Blowback BB Pistols to each other to see which one performed the best in my Chronograph Velocity Test and 30 foot 10 Round Target Test. There was no definitive clear winner at the end of the day two of the Air Pistols performed almost the same and then the rest kind of lingered behind them to lesser degrees.

The Compact CO2 Blowback BB Pistol I compared in this Field Test Shooting Video are the same Air Pistols I did a Table Top Comparison earlier, so the:

See if you can figure out which of these Compact CO2 Blowback BB Pistols you think performed the best!

Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field Test Revisit

2 Comments

This is both a revisit and a comparison Field Test Shooting Video all wrapped up into one so hold onto your socks! Make sure to watch my Table Top Revisit for the Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 Blowback BB Pistol where I go over the importance of this gun and how it started things off not only for Umarex but also Replica Airguns!

As always with my Indoor Filed Test Shooting Videos I test out the velocity of each Airgun along with the accuracy but in this case I want to see how a nearly 20 year old Blowback BB Pistol stacks up agains a much more modern similar BB Pistol. The closest CO2 Powered Blowback BB Pistol to the Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 Blowback BB Pistol as far as I could tell was the KWC Makarov Full Blowback BB Pistol since both are about the same size, share a similar look and design, have similar velocities and should perform relatively the same.

I’m not going to give it all alway in this written version of my Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field Test Revisit, so you will ahed to watch my YouTube Video to find out. I will say both guns performed well and for the first ever working slide with simulated blowback action BB pistol ever made, I would say it holds its own against todays more modern airgun designs.

ICS CPX-APE SF1 AEG Airsoft Rifle Field Test Review

No Comments

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!

ICS CXP APE AEG Airsoft Rifle Right Side Angle.png

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.

Which Full Auto BB Rifle Performs Best - Full Auto Rate of Fire and Accuracy

No Comments

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:

Outside Shooting the G&G SMC-9 with Insta360 Camera Mounted to it

No Comments

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.

KWC Cybergun Taurus PT 24/7 G1/G2 BB and Airsoft Field Test Comparison

1 Comment

I wanted to compare the KWC/Cybergun PT 24/7 G1/G2 BB and Airsoft Pistols to each other in the Replica Airguns Indoor Airgun Shooting Range to see how they compare side by side not only in terms of accuracy but also what their Feet Per Second Velocity performance would be.

Like all my Field Test Shooting Videos I place 5 rounds through my Chronograph and average out the fps to see what their real world velocity is using a brand new CO2 along with standard 4.5mm Steel BB’s and .25 gram 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB’s. I then place a paper target 30 feet down range and proceed to put 10 rounds from each gun into a fresh paper target to see not only how close the Airguns shoot to the bullseye out of the box but also how close each 10 round grouping is.

All of the KWC Cybergun Taurus PT 24/7 G1/G2 BB and Airsoft Pistols performed fairly well, the KWC PT 24/7 G1 NBB Steel BB Pistol as expected had the highest velocity at close to 400 fps while the KWC PT 24/7 G2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol with the slightly heavier then normal Airsoft Plastic BB’s shot closer to 300 fps. The KWC PT 24/7 G2 Blowback Steel BB Pistol shot just over 300 fps.

In terms of accuracy The KWC PT 24/7 G1 NBB Steel BB Pistol had one of the tighter grouping close to 2 inches but shot a fair amount to the left of the bullseye. The KWC PT 24/7 G2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol shot well centered left to right but low on the target with a spread of just over two inches and the KWC PT 24/7 G2 Blowback Steel BB Pistol was the most centered on target getting again close to a two inch grouping.

I do like the KWC Cybergun Taurus PT 24/7 G1/G2 BB and Airsoft series of Airguns and personally prefer the newer Blowback G2 models but to each their own.

G&G SMC-9 GBB Airsoft Carbine Field Test Review

No Comments

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.

BB - Pellet - Airsoft - Paintball Pistol Power and Accuracy Test

No Comments

I often have people ask me what is more powerful in terms of one gun over another and which Airguns have more raw power, BB versus, Pellet, versus Airsoft, versus Paintball?

Well in this indoor field test shooting video I compare all of the above head to head to see which Airgun not only has the most raw power but also how well they perform on a target setup 30 feet down range since after all what does it matter how powerful a gun is if it can not hit the target!

The Airguns I used in this head to head shooting performance test where as follows:

Keep in mind the ammunition for each Airgun is very different not just in terms of materials but also their weight which will have a big effect on the energy they produce. For example for this test I used 4.6 grain 4.5mm Steel BBs, 4.6 grain 6mm Aluminum Airsoft BB’s. 6.9 grain .177 cal. Lead Pellets and 17.7 grain .50 cal. Rubber Paintballs.

Watch my YouTube Video to see how well each Airgun did in this comparison shooting test!

G&G Piranha MK I & TR GBB Airsoft Pistol Field Test Review

No Comments

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.

G&G GPM92 GP2 GBB Airsoft Pistol Field Test Review

No Comments

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.

Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle Field Test Review

2 Comments

So here it is, my Field Test Shooting review for the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle. Crosman let me in on their upcoming AK1 BB rifle at SHOT Show this year even though no sample was available at the time but since then I have been eagerly anticipating its arrival!

For this Field Test Shooting Review I test out the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle as I do with all my Airguns by first finding out if the velocity matches up with the claimed fps by the company. I do this by using fresh CO2 in the Airgun and making sure the room temperature is in or around the mid temperatures, in this case just over 20 degrees Celsius or just over 68 degrees Fahrenheit. I follow up my velocity test with an accuracy test shooting 10 rounds at a paper target from 30 feet away using a rested and seated shooting position. With full auto Airguns I like to follow up with some full auto shots in this case I did a full mag dump of 28 round to see how well the BB’s stayed one target.

For my velocity test I placed six 5.1 grain steel BB’s through my Chronograph using a mostly brand new pair of CO2 cartridges. I had shot around 8-10 BB’s before hand to make sure my Red Dot was sighed in close to the bullseye. The shot fps spread was 427 as the fastest and 407 fps for the slowest averaging 415 fps which is fairly close to the maximum fps of 430 claimed by Crosman. I can see the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle easily hitting 430 fps or even over in warmer conditions.

Next I setup a brand new paper target 30 feet downrange and carefully placed 10 rounds into the paper using my Red Dot sight. The Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle grouped right around 1.5-2 inches, I’m pretty sure it is capable of getting even sub 1 inch groupings with a little bit of time behind the trigger. I then did a full 28 round magazine dump which the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle unloaded in just under 2 seconds and as expected the groping did spread out a bit more to perhaps 4 inches or so. The grouping did also drop down a little bit compared to the semi auto grouping but this could be from the full auto blowback rocking of the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle.

As kind of expected the Crosman AK1 CO2 Blowback Full Auto BB Rifle performed a lot like the other Crosman AR line of Full Auto BB Rifles which is a good thing since so far none of them have let me down. Now we have yet another choice in Full Auto BB Airguns, so if you’ve been waiting for or looking for an AK version this may be your only choice to date in a steel BB Blowback version, that said it is not a bad choice at all!

Umarex Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol Field Test Review

2 Comments

I have been wanting to revisit the Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol for some time and looking back I just released I never did in fact make an accuracy shooting video for it. I did make YouTube Table Top Video and a YouTube Chronograph Video but never an actual Target Accuracy Shooting Video. Well it was time to fix that even though the Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol is now discontinued.

I purchased my Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol around 10 years ago but it has been on the market since I believe 2006 and was the first pellet firing blowback CO2 Air Pistol. It’s a mostly plastic exterior Airgun but still has some good weight to it and compared to today CO2 Blowback Pellets Pistols it actually performs just as well if not even better as my Complete Field Test Shooting Video demonstrates.

In my Velocity and Accuracy test for the Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol I compare it to two other more modern Pellet firing CO2 Blowback Air Pistols to see how it compares 15 years later. My selection to test agains was the Sig Sauer M17 and the Umarex SA10 which I have already done full reviews for so check them out if you re interested inmate info on those two models.

As always I put 5 rounds through my Chronograph to see what the average fps. I used a brand new CO2 along with 6.9 grain lead pellets in all airguns for all of the tests. For my accuracy test in this case I shot 8 rounds (8 round magazines in 2 of the airguns) at a paper target setup 30 feet down range using a rested and seated shooting position for stability.

I usually tell you the result in my written Field Test Shooting Articles but this time I am going to make you watch the video to find out for yourself. Let me just say the Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle .177 Cal. CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol did not let me down isn was just as good as I remembered it to be shooting it over 10 years ago.

Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle Field Test Review

In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the Velocity and Accuracy of the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle by first placing 5 rounds through my Chronograph and recording the feet per second for each shot and then averaging them out. For the second portion of my Indoor Shooting Performance Test I setup a paper target 30 feet down range followed by shoot 10 rounds back to back to see what the spread or grouping size is. I followed this up with a nice long full auto burst just for fun to see if the grouping still remains nice and tight.

For my Velocity test I used .25 grain Plastic Airsoft BB’s rather than the normally tested .20 in the claimed fps of over 366 fps so I was expecting to get a little bit lower velocity results. I did manage to average right around 304 fps with all shots fairly consistently with the slowest being 302 fps and the fastest hitting 305 fps.

I then setup my brand new paper target and using a rested and seated shooting position from 30 feet back I placed my first 10 rounds into the target. The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle did shoot a little bit low close to the bottom of the rings but not as low as when I tested the Heckler & Koch HK416C version, I am sure some hop-up adjustment will get this closer to the mark. I did mange to get a really tight 10 round grouping of close to half an inch with most of the BB’s hitting one o top of the other I would ahed to say this is the best 30 foot accuracy results I have gotten from any Airsoft rifle to date! Full auto was as predicted, lots of fun with a nice hole in the paper/cardboard leaving about a 2 inch opening.

The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle performed really well for me and as already mentioned is crazy accurate. It had a slightly lower fps than the Heckler & Koch HK416C version which was a bit of a surprise but at 304 fps using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s this is about perfect for close quarters shooting adn even out to medium distances. Make sure not checkout all of our Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch over in the Replica Airguns Canada Online Store.

Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle Field Test Review

1 Comment

In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the Velocity and Accuracy of the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle by first placing 5 rounds through my Chronograph and recording the feet per second of each shot then averaging them out. For the second portion of my Indoor Shooting Performance Test I setup a paper target 30 feet away and then shoot 10 rounds back to back to see what the spread or grouping size is. I follow this up with a full auto burst just for fun to see if the grouping still remains nice and tight.

For my Velocity test I used .25 grain Plastic Airsoft BB’s rather than the .20 in the claimed fps over 366 fps so I was expecting to get a little bit slower results. I did manage to average right around 325.5 fps with all shots consistently hitting either 325 or 326 fps so super consistent.

I then setup my brand new paper target and using a rested and seated shooting position from 30 feet back I placed my first 10 rounds into the target. This is when I discovered the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle liked to shoot fairly low even when using the raised elevation option on the rear sight. Because of this I had to aim a little bit higher on the paper target to place shoots more centered. Once I figure out my aim point I did mange to get a fairly tight 10 round grouping of close to an inch with a couple of stagers pushing it out to 2 inches. Full auto was as predicted, lots of fun with a nice hole in the paper/cardboard leaving about a 3.5 inch opening.

The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle performed well for me once I figured out that it liked to shoot rather low. I would suggest placing a bit of a spacer or riser under the rear sight to bring up the barrel at least for closer in shots where hop-up may not ark the Airsoft BB enough at that point. Other than that the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle had super consistent performance in terms of both FPS and accuracy.

Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge Field Test Review

No Comments

For this Field Test Shooting Video I put the Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and Specna Arms RRA SA-E10 Edge head to head to see just how they will compare in terms of FPS and Accuracy at least out to 30 feet. If you want to know more about each of these AEG Specna Arms Airsoft Rifles then checkout my Table Top Review where I show them up nice and close and also talk about their specifications and how they both compare to each other.

For my Chronograph test, I decided to go with .25 gram Airsoft BB’s, a little bit heavier than what was used for the claimed FPS of around 380 using the M120 spring which by the way is preinstalled in these guns for import into Canada. Both the Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge shot pretty similar with the C10 Core averaging right around 300 FPS and the E10 Edge shooting a little bit faster with 318 FPS. Throw some lighter .20 gram Airsoft BB’s into the mix and these numbers would go up for sure. I was using the same 11.1 volt Li-Po battery for all of my testing in this video.

Next I placed a fresh paper target 30 feet downrange and placed 10 semi auto rounds into it using a seated and rested shooting position. Both Specna Arms AEG Airsoft Rifles shot about a 1 inch grouping. I did find with both of these Specna Arms rifles that when using the peep sight they shot too low and when using the top notch sight they shot too high at least at this distance. Of course the sights are fully adjustable so this can easily be taken care of and you can adjust the hop-up for even more elevation considerations. After my 10 shot semi auto test I placed both Specna Arms Airsoft rifles in Full Auto and let the paper have it! As expected the groupings did spread out a little bit but not all that much, perhaps opening up to around 3-4 inches.

After testing both the Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge AEG Airsoft Rifles side by side you really can’t go wrong with either version as they performed very similarly on the Chronograph and on Target. If you can afford to pay the little bit more than I would go with an Edge Series Specna Arms product since you do get a lot of extras for the little bit more you pay. Well worth it!
