Accuracy: At this time I have not made my Field Test Shooting Video or even shot the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle, but plan to make my Field Test Shooting Video shortly. So stay posted for that video coming out soon. I do expected Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle to perform well as it is a high quality and not so inexpensive AEG Airsoft Rifle.
Build Quality: The Build quality on the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle looks to be really good, there are lots of quality metal parts throughout this Airsoft Rifle including the top and bottom receiver, rails, parts of the sights, flash hider, magazine, charging handle, selector switch, magazine release, forward assist, dust cover, buffet tube and trigger.

Comments:
The Umarex VFC H&K AEG Airsoft product line is going to be on the higher end of the price spectrum for sure but you are getting a really quality product here fully H&K licensed. The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416 V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle has a really nice form factor allowing for a full size rear adjustable stock which will make your shooting position a lot more comfortable while still allowing for a rather compact form factor overall. I look forward to seeing how well the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle performs in my upcoming Field Test Shooting Video.

Realism: The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle is a 1 to 1 scale fully licensed replica of the real steel HK 416 compact CQB styled rifles but in an even more compact design I believe specifically only found in Airsoft versions as I was not able to find the exact same model on the H&K Website. That said most part work in the same manner as you would find on the real steel version including the Charging Handle, Forward Assist, Bolt Release, Magazine Release, Selector Switch and Pop-up sights.

Comments:
The Umarex VFC H&K AEG Airsoft product line is going to be on the higher end of the price spectrum for sure but you are getting a really quality product here fully H&K licensed. The Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle is perhaps one of my favorites as I like more simplistic and minimalist styles of guns and this one for sure fits into that category. Even though it is small in nature it is super solid and heavier then it looks for sure when you pick it up with all the metal parts making up its build quality. I look forward to seeing how well the Umarex VFC Heckler & Koch HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle performs in my upcoming Field Test Shooting Video.
My Vimeo Table Top Review for the Umarex VFC HK416C V2 AEG Airsoft Rifle:
In this video I show you four Premium AEG Airsoft Rifles made by VFC and distributed and H&K Licensed by Umarex. This is not a detailed review but rather I focus on the basic specification and show my reaction as I take my first look at all four Umarex H&K AEG Airsoft Rifles. I do show off some close up photos so you can get an idea on the finish and what some of the components look like.
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!
Type: AEG Airsoft Rifles Manufacturer:Specna Arms. Model: RRA SA-C10 / RRA SA-E10 Materials: Fiberglass reenforced plastic and metal/aluminum. Weight: C10 4.9 pounds ( 2.2 kg) - E10 5.1 pounds (2.3 kg). Total Length: 21.7 - 25.2 inches (550 - 640mm). Barrel: 6.7 inch (170mm) inner 6.03mm tight bore barrel non rifled. Propulsion: AEG. Action: Single action semi & full auto. Ammunition Type: .6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s. Ammunition Capacity: Mid cap 120 round magazines. FPS: 375 - 390 fps with installed spring, included M90 spring will be lower fps.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on both of the Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge AEG Airsoft Rifles is similar to a light single action trigger as they are essentially an electrical on off switch. There is a little bit of take up with virtually no extra friction to let you know when the release is going to be, with a bit of use you will figure out exactly when the trigger will release the action.
Accuracy: At this time I have not made my Field Test Shooting Video or even shot the Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge AEG Airsoft Rifles, but plan to very soon. They are next on my list for Filed Test Shooting Videos so stay posted for that video coming out soon. I do expect them to perform well and will be shooting both of these models side by side to see if there is any noticeable difference between the lower cost Core versus the slightly more premium Edge Specna Arms versions.
Build Quality: One thing I can say is no matter which version of the Specna Arms AEG Air Rifles you deicide to go with (either a Core or Edge Series), you are getting extremely good value for your money and neither one is going to have any low quality parts in it. Even the lower cost Core Series will have fiber glass reenforced plastic and metal parts along with a metal gearbox and virtually almost the same build as the more premium and slightly higher priced Edge Series. You will get upgrades in the Edge Series such as a an aluminum receiver and buffer tube, a GATE X-ASR Mosfet, the New Orion Gearbox, deep laser engraved licensing and an additional magazine. All of this for the little bit more you pay for an Edge series Specna Arms AEG Airsoft rifle.
Realism: The Specna Arms RRA SA-C10 Core and E10 Edge AEG Airsoft Rifles are based on the AR15 or M16 platform of course in a very modern and PDW styled look. They look and feel the part for sure with lots of working parts including the safety, selector switch, charging handle, dust cover, adjustable rear stock, pop-up front and rear sights as you would expect. Most of the hardware should be interchangeable with a real steel AR if you want to personalize the look of your Specna Arms Rifle.
Pros:
Super affordable yet very high quality product for what you pay.
Two options to consider, both with good price points and value.
Quality components throughout both the Core and Edge series.
Rock River Arms Licensed with hologram on receiver.
ESA™ quick spring change system makes spring changes quick and easy.
Comes with two springs for potential indoor and outdoor usage.
Plastic parts are fiberglass reenforced making them very durable.
Quick release fully adjustable pop-up sights.
No orange tips on our Canada Store versions.
Lots of rial mounting options even on such short PDW styled AR’s.
Metal gearboxes with metal gears and mostly all metal parts inside.
Easy access to motor for any possible trouble shooting you may need to do.
Cons:
Popup sights are mostly plastic..
Need to hold back charging handle to access the hop-up wheel.
Comments:
Value for your money is what comes to mind when I think about the entire Specna Ams AEG Airsoft Riffle product line. And this goes for not only the lower priced Core Series but also the premium Edge Series. Both version are built supper tuff with quality components throughout. You are just getting upgrades you are probably going to do at some point in time with the Edge Series and of course more metal components when you spend about $100 more for a similar Edge version. I figure if you can muster up the extra cash then go with an Edge Specna Arms AEG Airsoft Rifle, that said, any of the Core models will be money well spent.
Make sure not also watch my previous Specna Arms YouTube Video where I introduce the product line, show you around several models and talk about the key differences between the Core and Edge versions.
My Vimeo Table Top Review for the Specna Arms RRA C10 Core & E10 Edge Airsoft Rifles:
We have a new line of Airsoft rifles from Specna Arms I am super happy to be introducing to the Replica Airguns Airsoft Community.
Specna Arms AEG Airsoft Rifles are extremely cost effective and offer value for what you pay that is amazing. In this YouTube Introduction Video I go over the main differences between the Core Series (lower priced) versus the Edge Series (mid priced) so that you can understand what the extra cost will get you when buying a Spenca Arms Edge Series AEG Airsoft Rifle over a Specna Arm Core Series AEG Airsoft Rifle.
I also show 12 different versions from the Specna Arms Core and Edge Series some with Rock River Arms licensing and some without.
Specna Arms Core Series
Price: Mid $200’s (CAD)
Materials: Fiberglass Reenforced Plastic & Metal
Mosfet System: No
Gear Box: Ver 2 Metal Fully Upgradeable
Spring System: ESA Quick Change - 2 Springs (380-310 fps)
Unfortunately the microphone system I was using for some reason did not record the Lapel Microphones we where record the audio with for this ASG SHOT Show 2020 Interview Video. The Camera we where recording video with did record audio but as there is so much back ground noise going on at large show like this, the audio is far from good. That all said try do you your best to listen to what we are discussing. There are sections where the audio is fairly distinguishable and sections in the video that are not due the proximity of the camera.
Bob from ASG and I go over serval products for ASG at SHOT Show 2020 this year. We first take a look at the new ASG Shadow 2 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol. One interesting fact about the new ASG Shadow 2 is that it has an internal Hop-up system that help BB’s travel further out for longer range shooting. The ASG Shadow 2 also has a fully adjustable rear sight making this Blowback CO2 BB Airgun a potentially pretty decent target pistol.
Another new product from ASG we focused on is the Airsoft ASG B&T Universal Service Weapon designed for first responder situations. The ASG B&T USW has an extended rear frame allowing for a non-recipricating red dot sight placement. The ASG B&T Universal Service Weapon has a built in folding stock and you can trick it out with all kinds of add ons to make it your own.
Near the end of the video we took a look at some new ICS Airsoft offerings from ASG.
This year Sig Sauer was showcasing their Airsoft Pistols with a new line called the Proforce series geared towards high end training. Sig has also included new Reflex Red Dot Sights that can be ordered already on the gun or as an add on accessory. The Proforce Pistol line includes both the M17 and M18 series Sig Sauer pistols.
Last year at SHOT Show 2019 Sig had introduced their Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Semi Auto Rifle but it was not ready at that time. Well now the Sig Sauer Virtus is ready to ship and yours truly will be getting one of these bad boys for review! Since the .22 caliber PCP Sig Sauer Virtus shoots around 700 fps with a 12 foot pound energy level you will need a PAL firearms license if you live in Canada but the Sig Sauer Virtus is a considered a “long gun” so no registration will be required in Canada.
Watch my Sig Sauer SHOT Show 2020 Las Vegas Interview for more info and cool stuff presented by Stephanie from Sig Sauer.
In this Field Test Shooting Review I test both the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 & 3 Airsoft Rifles out putting some rounds through my Chronograph to see what the actual fps is. I also put some rounds down range to see how the accuracy is for both of these KWA AEG Airsoft Rifles is.
Starting with my Chronograph test, I was using heavier than normal .32 gram Airsoft BB’s to see if this would help out a bit with the accuracy but keep in mind it will slow the fps down a bit compared to using standard .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. My results for both AIrsoft guns where pretty close with the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 Airsoft Rifle shooting slightly faster at around 324 fps versus the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3 Airsoft Rifle coming in with a velocity of 314 fps. The KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 Airsoft Rifle can be adjusted for 320-380 fps by accessing a screw situated at the end of the buffer tube. The KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3 Airsoft Rifle does not have this feature since it has its recoil system setup inside the buffer tube. You can swap out springs if you want to adjust your fps on the TK.45 3 Airsoft Rifle.
Moving on to the accuracy test. I know 30 feet is not really a great range for testing out an AEG Airsoft rifle but it does give us an idea of how tight it will shoot at this range and then all we need to do is expand that a bit as we get further out. But a tight group at 30 feet should mean a decent group even when shooting further away.
I do have to say I was having some difficulty with the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3 Airsoft Rifle using the same ammo in both guns so this should not be a problem if it works well in one but not the other? That said I was getting misfeeds followed by double shots using the .32 gram Airsoft BB’s in the TK.45 3 Airsoft Rifle. Even in full auto it seemed to misfeeds for a bit but then cleared up at the end. Maybe a different ammo choice or some break in time is required? That said both Airsoft guns seemed to shoot low so perhaps a hop-up adjustment is in order. The KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 Airsoft Rifle seemed to shoot the lowest even requiring me to retest it since my first go around shot below the range of the camera. When I sighted in at the top of the target the second time I did get a very tight 1 inch grouping just below the bullseye. In full auto both guns punched nice 2-3 inch holes through the paper targets.
Other than the strange miss feeding issue I had with the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3 Airsoft Rifle, I found them to be very nice rifles. The simulated blowback recoil action felt nice on the shoulder so personally I would go for the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3 Airsoft Rifle, I would just need to workout the miss feeding issue for sure. Maybe even a shorter version of the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 3.0 Airsoft Rifle would be nice? You can purchase one of these KWA Airsoft Rifles over in our Canada Replica Airguns store!
This is going to be the only video this week. I’m turning 50 on Friday April 5th and had a goal that I wanted to complete before I reached 50. I wanted to get my 1993 Ducati 750 Super Sport all fixed up and ready to go, and it’s been a lot of work cleaning, fixing, painting… Perhaps it’s a bit of a mid life crisis sort of thing but at least it’s gotten my but in gear :) Stay tuned till the end of the video for some video of what the mighty Ducati looks like today if you’re into that sort of thing!
Getting back to the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 & AEG 3 Airsoft Rifles. You may remember my Shot Show Interview with Jonathan, well he went front to back and up and down the entire KWA product line ending with the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 & AEG 3 Airsoft Rifles and boy does he know his stuff, I will be adding the portion of Jonathan’s interview that deals with these rifles at the end of this video also.
Here is some info on the KWA Ronin TK.45 Tekken AEG 2.5 & AEG 3 Airsoft Rifles…
Being that KWA is a new product in our Replica Airguns Online Stores, I wanted to go over as much of the KWA product line as possible and really not only learn for myself but be able to share all of this information with everyone. I have to thank Jonathan for spending so much of his time really diving in deep to what KWA has to offer.
There really is an absolute ton of info in this video that in no way I can put into words so you’re going to have to watch this KWA SHOT Show Interview from start to finish. So go get yourself a snack and something to drink, cause it’s going to be a long one!
This year at SHOW Show 2019 Bob from ASG had a lot to show me so make sure to watch the full Interview Video for all the details and information.
Bob and I first go over a new ASG CZ Airsoft Pistol called the Shadow 2 kind of like a modernized SP-01 Shadow. The ASG CZ Shadow 2 is a competition stile pistol with adjustable sights and trigger and will come in both CO2 and Green Gas magazine options.
Next up Bob showed me the CZ75 SP01 ACCU Shadow with some special edition features like: Ergonomic anodized aluminum grips with grip tape, match style high sights, oversized slide release and ambidextrous safety and a tunable anodized aluminum trigger.
ASG being the exclusive partner with ICS had some new ICS Pistols to show us. First up was the Airsoft ICS XPD, a compact Gas Blowback System that will come with shorter compact magazines and extended magazines that will hold more green gas. Both Gas magazines will feature a new valve system called the Revo system.
If you like the feel of a 1911 but perhaps want something a bit more modern then checkout the New ASG Korth PRS Airsoft Pistol, you can even put real 1911 grips on it!
Not new to ASG this year is the CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 but ASG has enhanced this Airsoft rifle by working with a designer to adding an M-Lok Handguard, Magwell Grip and Fore Grip that will be a three part system you can customize.
Last Bob showed me around the CQR Hera Arms Airsoft Rifle that is a collaboration of ASG, Hara Arms, ICS. It will come in standard Mosfet and Triple-S (Smart Shooting System).
Looking forward to getting my hands-on some of these new ASG
I stumbled on what I thought was one of the most interesting new Airsoft products at SHOT Show this year. A company by the name of American Airsoft Factory has made an AR styled Airsoft Rifle that is completed Battery/Electric operated but acts and feels like a Gas Blowback System. They use a computerized fire control system to operate a mechanical Open Bolt with full Blowback operation. The American Airsoft Factory AR system will auto decide when the your standard Hi-cap or Mid-cap AEG magazine is empty and the bolt will lock back ready to swap out a full magazine, just press the bolt release and you’re ready to engage your target!
The American Airsoft Factory product will not be cheap but it is incredibly high end and features real steel compatibility. I see this being of interest to military and police organizations along with serious Airsofters that are looking for the ultimate Airsoft Rifle.
So now I just need to get my hands on an American Airsoft Factory rifle so I can test it out and make a review! Maybe we can even add them to our Online Replica Airguns Stores?
Here we go, the first SHOT Show Interview for 2019 and why not kick things off with Sig Sauer. After all Sig Sauer has been super dedicated to bringing new Airgun designs to the airgun community year after year and this year at SHOT Show was no exception!
My favorite item from Sig Sauer this year at SHOT Show was the Sig Sauer P365 ASP, as the name suggests it is based on their 9mm firing real steel Sig Sauer P365 and somehow similar to how they fit 10 rounds of 9mm ammo into such a compact magazine and gun, the BB version also manages to jam a 12 gram CO2 cartridge into a very tiny drop out metal magazine! Really looking forward to getting my hands on this one!
Sig Sauer launched several Airsoft guns, an AEG Airsoft Rifle called the MCX Virtus and two GBB Airsoft Pistols, the M17 and P226. All of them fully licensed and also should be Canada import ready.
Last up but something that we have all been waiting for in an ASP Pellet firing rifle, the Virtus 22 Caliber PCP Rifle. Well the name says it all. It’s basically an MCX Pellet Rifle but now in 22 caliber and with a PCP tank built into the rear stock. In Canada you will need a PAL to buy one but import into Canada should not be a problem for license holders since the 22 Virtus PCP will quality as a long gun.
I’m back from SHOT Show Las Vegas 2019 and as always I had an awesome time. I love January since I get to go to SHOT Show each year. What an awesome job!
This year was another great show with lots of new products from the Airgun companies. I managed to get seven interviews in this year so I have my work cut out for me editing and uploading all of these informative YouTube Videos.
For now here is a SHOT Show Las Vegas 2019 Teaser Video along with some photos…
My Field Test Shooting videos for blank guns are pretty basic! I can’t test for accuracy since there is no bullet hitting a target and similarly since there is no bullet I can not test the velocity or feet per second power. SO what is there really left to test?
I guess will the blank gun I am testing fire when I pull the trigger? That’s all there is to really test. You may ask why even make a Field Test Shooting Video for a blank gun if you can’t test accuracy and power. I’ll tell you why… Because it’s just fun and it looks good on camera :)
So watch my YouTube video of me popping of some .380 caliber blanks with my ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver inside the Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range.
Type: Blank Revolver. Manufacturer: ROHM (RÖHM). Model:RG-89 Materials: Mostly Metal. Weight: 1.45 pounds (658 grams). Barrel: Front firing designed for attaching a flare adaptor. Propulsion: Gun powder. Action: Single & double action. Ammunition Type: 9mm / .380 caliber crimped. Ammunition Capacity: 6 rounds. FPS: N/A.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver in single action is fairly light weight with virtually no take up at all as you would expect from a revolver. The double action trigger pull is much heavier with a smooth release. Mechanically the trigger feels really solid.
Accuracy: NA.
Build Quality: The overall build quality for the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver is excellent, being German made its built to last and the fit and finish is typical German quality. There are steel parts where they need to be like in the barrel, pins, screws and reenforcing parts, the rest of the gun is generally made out of a zinc alloy otherwise know as pot metal with only the moulded grips being made out of plastic.
Realism: The ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver is not an exact replica of any given gun in production as this would make importing it into Canada even more difficult, but it is styled after a Snub Nosed type Revolver. As for looking like and working like a real gun, the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver looks and sounds as loud as a real gun, of course with the exception of the dangerous bullet coming out of the barrel!
All metal gun with reenforced steel in some areas.
Front firing gun.
Large caliber makes a bigger bang.
Higher 6 shot capacity over RG-59.
Chrome (Silver) finish is very nice.
Also like the moulded grips on the Chrome version.
Comes with Flare Adaptor & Cleaning Rods.
Comes in a nice foam lined plastic hard shell case.
Right now Rohm is the only blank gun brand we can get in Canada.
Cons:
Double Action trigger pull is a bit heavy.
Have to make sure you only shot them where you will not get in trouble. Very loud!
Expensive due to them being harder to get and in high demand in Canada.
Comments: I think the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver especially in the Chrome (Nickel) version is one of the nicest looking ROHM Blank guns we stock. The additional size over say a ROHM RG-59 makes it feel a lot more beefy in the hand, you also get the extra 6th 9mm / .380 caliber blank with the larger cylinder of the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver. Anther bonus with the Chrome or Nickel version is that you get moulded grips that again I feel looks and fells better in the hand. Along with the ROHM RG-88, the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver is one of my Top ROHM Picks!
My Full Video Review for the ROHM RG-89 .380 Caliber Blank Revolver:
In this December Update Video I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. If you have other beliefs and perhaps don’t celebrate Christmas in the traditional Canadian fashion then I wish you a Happy Holiday!
I received a number of products lately and really don’t have time to do full reviews of them as the Holliday season is on us which is going to limit how many videos I can pump out over the next couple of weeks so hopefully this Update video will keep everyone excited about the future Replace Airgun Videos.
Here are the items I talk about in this December 2018 Update Video:
I have some harder to get here in Canada Blank Guns that I am selling from my personal collection by way off Silent Auction. These Blank Guns are more for the Canadian collector and perhaps not so much for the first time buyer. I would recommend for the first time Blank Gun buyer that you checkout our selection off brand new ROHM Blank Guns that we sell in our Canada Replica Airguns Store so check those ROHM Blank Guns out as they are excellent German made Blank Guns in a variety of styles.
Getting back to the Blank Guns in my personal collection. They are all previously owned, most only test fired once for review. Below is a listing of the Blank Guns I am offering in this Silent Auction with what I feel is there approximate value:
EKOL Aras Compact 9mm PAK Gloss Black Front Firing (New Condition): Missing magazine, should be able to buy and import magazine into Canada pretty easy. Takes the same magazine as most of the EKOL Blank Guns (Jackal, Dicle, ASI, Firat) $299
Here is how the silent action system works… First of all I will only be shipping these guns within Canada to a Canadian addresses and all funds are in Canadian Funds. You will need to email me and let me know which Blank Gun or Blank Guns you are interested in bidding on and let me know what your best price is. In approximately a weeks time when I feel enough offers have come in, I will then contact the winning bidder and give them 24 hours to pay up. If they do not pay me the amount they offered within the 24 hours I will then move on to the next highest bidder.
If you are bidding on more than one gun then I will take this into consideration since collecting money and shipping product to one buyer is easier than multiple buyers so this will help you with your offer.
I also will be charging $20 for shipping per gun, if you are buying multiple guns then I will discount the shipping a little bit so I will not charge you $20 per gun.
Some other very cool news, we are now selling KWA Airsoft Guns, I have been a big fan of KWA for a long time and enjoy visiting their booth at SHOT Show, they have excellent high quality detailed Airsoft guns and carry a great combination of Blowback and AEG Airsoft Guns. Once I get through my Crosman and Gletcher reviews I will focus on showcasing the new KWA lineup we are selling.
