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

4 Comments

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portion of the metal barrel and make the barrel flush with the end of the slide which is how the real steel version was originally made.

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

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

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

KJWorks KP-05 1911 HI-CAPA Blowback Airsoft Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

1 Comment

Here is my official Field Test Shooting Video Review for my KJWORKS KP-05 1911 HI-CAPA CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Make sure to checkout my previous Table Top Review for more details on the KP-05 where I also did a pre-test showing very similar results.

My 5 shot Chronograph test resulted in a lower than expected 308 average fps while my accuracy test shot from 20 feet out in a semi rested position this time received a just over 2 inch group but with most shots being within 1 inch, I have found with Airsoft guns that there can be some floaters perhaps due to inconsistencies with some of the ammo. In terms of shot placement the KJWORKS KP-05 HI-CAPA 1911 shot very well centered only being just slightly high and to the left but only marginally. I was also able to  get 2 full magazines plus another half  mag this time around so just over 60 shots with the KP-05. 

KJWorks KP-05 1911 HI-CAPA Airsoft Pistol although not shooting as hard as I though it would still performed great for me and would make a great field gun as it performs very well and has a nice high capacity magazine which would come in handy in the heat of battle.

KJWorks KP-09 CZ 75 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

2 Comments

Here is my official Field Test Shooting Video Review for my KJWorks KP-09 CZ 75 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Make sure to checkout my previous Table Top Review for more detailed info about the KP-09 where I also did a pre test and got similar results.

My 5 shot Chronograph test resulted in a very respectable 366 average fps while my accuracy test shot from 20 feet out in a semi rested position this time around came in a bit higher than my pre test right at around 2 inches. Several of the shots hit right on top of each other. In terms of shot placement the KJWorks KP-09 CZ 75 shot fairly well centered but just a bit high and a tad to the left. I was also able to again get 3 full magazines or around 75 shots out of this heavy blowback Airsoft pistol. 

KJWorks KP-09 CZ 75 Airsoft Pistol really has a lot going for it, it's a great Replica of a real steel CZ 75 with a very nice single action trigger, it has great snappy full blowback with excellent fps and accuracy and it even gets a solid 75 shots out of a single CO2 which is very good for this style of full blowback gun.

KJWorks KP-05 1911 HI-CAPA Blowback Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer: KJWORKS.

Model: KP-05 (1911 Replica)

Materials: Metal slide & frame.

Weight: 2.29 pounds (1040 grams).

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Blowback, Single action only.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 30 rounds.

FPS: 366+ fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KJWORKS KP-05 is what you would expect from a true 1911 single action only trigger, it has very little take up with a smooth crisp and light release to it.

Accuracy: I shot the KJWORKS KP-05 from 20 feet out in semi rested position and got very good test results. I was able to place 10 rounds in under 1.5 inches and getting four shots right in the bullseye making the shot placement very good even without adjusting the sights (which can be adjusted for windage). The KJWORKS HP-05 1911 styled HI-CAPA Airsoft Replica shot right around 300 fps range while conducting my 5 shot average chrony testing which was surprisingly low for the CO2 magazine version, this may have been a temperature or CO2 related condition, when I conduct my full Field Test Shooting Review, I will review this and see if we can do better? I also got two full 30 round magazines worth of shots which is what you would expect from this style of full heavy blowback airsoft pistol.

Build Quality: I am extremely impressed with the build quality of all the KJWORKS Airsoft guns so far, the fit and finish is the best around on any of my guns including my 4.5mm steel BB shooters. After shooting several magazines worth of BB's, areas that are painted like the metal friction areas show very light wear which is rarely the case with metal built blowback airguns. Again the tolerances between the moving parts like the slide and frame are very tight showing excellent workmanship and machining from KJWORKS.

Realism: The KJWORKS KP-05 6mm Airsoft pistol is a replica of a High Capacity styled tactical 1911 45 Auto and is a great looking and functioning replica. You will not find any actual licensing on this pistol and the CO2 magazine does stick out a bit to accommodate the 12 gram CO2 but other than that this Airsoft pistol looks and works near exactly like a real 1911 tactical semi auto and is fully field strip-able. I really like the updated more tactical add ons like the tactical rail, machined trigger and hammer, white dot adjustable sights, wrap around grips and ambidextrous safety.

Available in the: Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

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

  • Full heavy blowback operation.

  • Typical KJWORKS excellent fit and finish.

  • High capacity magazine 30 rounds.

  • Very good accuracy and well centered on target.

  • Nice replica of a High Capacity Tactical 1911 styled pistol.

  • I like the stainless highlights and ambidextrous safety and Rail for accessories.

  • Fully field strip-able.

Cons:

  • Shot a bit low Feet Per Second for me - should do better?

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

  • Slide is heavy enough but seems to be a bit sluggish which is kind of a 1911 trademark so that can be taken as good or bad.

Comments:

The KJWORKS KP-05 1911HI-CAPA is another excellent full blowback Airsoft pistol from KJWORKS. The HP-05 is a classic upgraded more modernized version of the 1911 semi auto pistol which is a great foundation to build any pistol from. I found the CO2 usage to be decent on the KP-05 but felt that I should have been able to get more fps out of this pistol, I will be testing the KJWORKS KP-05 again and hope to see some better results in this area. With that aside, the KP-05 1911 HI-CAPA is a great shooter and as is, with its high capacity magazine would be a perfect sidearm for any Airsoft related squirmish or even just for honing up your shooting skills when getting to the gun range is not an option.

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

3 Comments

Type: 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:KJWORKS.

Model: KP-09 (CZ 75 Replica)

Materials: Metal slide & frame.

Weight: 2.1 pounds (970 grams).

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Blowback, Single and double action.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 24 rounds.

FPS: 366+ fps.

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

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

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

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

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

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

  • Very crisp and firm full blowback operation.

  • Excellent fit and finish - best I have seen.

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

  • Good accuracy and well centered on target.

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

  • Fully field strip-able.

Cons:

  • Does not have official CZ 75 licensing.

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

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

Comments:

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

Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

10 Comments

Here is my official Field Test Shooting Video Review for my Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol. As with my original Table Top Review, I shot pretty close to the manufacturers claimed 400 fps getting a 5 shot average of 392 fps.

And the same can be said with my accuracy pre test, both tests came in just about the same with an approximate 2 inch very well centered grouping shooting at the target from 20 feet out in a semi rested position. I even got 8 of the 10 rounds right in the 1.5 inch bullseye with only two rounds coming just outside. Good thing it was already pre sighted as the sight on the Umarex Walther P38 can not be adjusted. You can also expect to get a good 100 shots from a single CO2. I would also like to point out that even thought he slide is fairly light and the blowback is not full, The P38 still has a nice blowback snap to it.

The only real negative point I can make about the Umarex Walther P38 Replica Air Pistol is the somewhat medium to heavy trigger pull which I found a bit surprising since it has a single action only trigger? This was offset by the fact that The Umarex P38 had such good combined accuracy, power and CO2 efficiency wrapped up in a very believable Walther P38 Replica.

KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

14 Comments

Here is my official Field Test Shooting Video Review for my KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol. Interestingly enough, this time around I got a bit lower average feet per second rating from this air gun at right around 290 fps as compared to the pre-test I did during my Table Top Review (shot closer to 310 average fps)? Both days the temperature was about the same and the CO2 used on both occasions was the same brand and where unused. Just goes to show you that these guns sometimes have a mind of their own...

At least the accuracy portion came in just about the same with an approximate 2 inch grouping shooting at the target from 20 feet out in a semi rested position. I did shoot a bit to the left and a bit low which I could adjust from left to right but since there is only a windage adjustment I would have to sight a bit up to hit the bullseye with the KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC. This time around I also got 4 magazine worth of shots as I slowed things down a bit and took my time and juts like last time I had no problems or malfunctions with my KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC.

The best part about shooting the KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC CO2 Air Pistol is it's beautiful single action 1911 styled trigger and nice heavy full blowback action, making this gun a great economical trainer if you own the real steel version or perhaps just want to feel like you do!

Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Table Top Review

4 Comments

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: Umarex USA.

Model:Walther P38.

Materials: Almost all metal.

Weight: 1.8 pounds (842 grams).

Barrel: Metal non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 20 round metal magazine.

FPS: 400.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Replica is a bit heavier than I expected it would be as it is a single action only trigger. There is a lot of take up initially but once you hit the release area, the release point is what I would describe as a medium to heavy pull for a single action shooter. With that said it did not seem to effect the accuracy at all and I was able to rifle off quick shots fairly easily.

Accuracy: I shot the Umarex Walther P38 BB Pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a semi rested position, and it performed very good getting just under a 2 inch grouping and very well centered on the target. The sights are not adjustable so adjusting the Umarex Walther P38 would not be possible except by using a modified aim point! My initial Chrony testing puts this BB shooter just under the 400 claimed fps range right in the 380 area which is not bad considering the rather cold day I was shooting on. I also managed to get five magazines worth of shots which is a vert respectable 100 shots per CO2.

Build Quality: The Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol is almost all metal with the exception of the grips which is great to see! I found the fit and finish to also be very good with a nice Semi Gloss paint job that should wear well over time. Interestingly enough the Umarex Walther P38 has a removable barrel so I am assuming that perhaps Umarex will introduce some more barrel length options at some point?

Realism: The Umarex Walther P38 CO2 Blowback BB Airgun is very close to the real steel Walther P38 and even has the Walther P38 licensing on it. What I was really impressed with was the fact that all the mechanical parts do exactly what they would do on the real gun. On some other guns these parts are merely for show and moulded into the gun. The Blowback action, hidden CO2 screw and recessed barrel all help to make this Walther P38 Replica very believable!

Available From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Replicates the real steel version fairly well with all the working parts pretty much doing what they did on the original.

  • Nice that it has blowback while still gets decent fps and shots per CO2.

  • The Blowback had more feedback then I thought it would.

  • Mine seemed to be very well centered on target and got a good tight grouping.

  • CO2 is very well hidden in the handle.

  • Good weight fit and finish to it.

  • Glad to see a World War BB replica pistol!

  • Almost all metal.

Cons:

  • Had a rather heavy trigger for a single action only gun.

  • CO2 screw may be a bit hard to tighten for people with sausage fingers.

  • Some people may not like the high gloss finish.

Comments:

There are few older Classic Airguns out there, especially ones from the World War era! On that topic I would also like to see some old Single Action Army Cowboy Revolvers start to show up in the Replica Airgun market! As I was saying it is nice to see this Classic Walther P38 show up in what seems to be a sea of modern styled airgun replicas. Umarex not only came out with a BB shooting Walther P38, they made it very believable in terms of operation, while maintaining good overall airgun performance. I hope this is a trend that continues in the direction of companies offering more quality airgun replicas of guns from the past.

KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Table Top Review

16 Comments

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: KWC.

Model:M1911 A1 Tac.

Materials: Almost all metal.

Weight: 2 pounds.

Barrel: Metal non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 18 round full size metal magazine.

FPS: 320.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KWC M1911 A1 Tac blowback BB Pistol is exactly what you would expect from a true single action 1911 styled pistol. It has a short take up and then a nice light and crisp pull to it. Because of the similar mechanics not only to the trigger but other aspects of this gun, it would make an awesome low cost trainer to be used when your real 1911 can not be.

Accuracy: I shot the KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB gun at a target from 20 feet away in a semi rested position, and it performed well getting a 2 inch grouping just a bit off center of the target. The sights are adjustable for windage so zeroing the KWC M1911 A1 Tac in would not be much of a problem! My initial Chrony testing puts this gun right in the 300-320 fps range which is just fine for this style of heavy full realistic blowback action BB shooter. I also managed to get three very good magazine worth of shots with some extra CO2 left for a potential 4th magazine. If you slow your shooting down and let the gun and CO2 warm up between magazines you can get 4 magazines with this gun for sure.

Build Quality: KWC did a great job with the KWC M1911 A1 Tac. The quality and build characteristics may even be just a bit better than my other KWC/Cybergun blowback air pistols. Everything that should be metal is the same on this as the original, the slide and barrel wiggle are minimal and the finish seems to be wearing fairly well on this KWC airgun. I do expect over time fore some of the finish to wear off on the high points but this can also give the gun some character ;)

Realism: The KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB airgun is as close as you can get to the real steel 1911 A1 45 auto but with an obvious more modern Tactical look to it, the Tactical version has the addition of a: Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights, rail for accessories. This gun is nearly all metal with very heavy blowback making it feel real to hold in the hand and shoot.

Available From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • All metal construction - Good weight and solid feeling gun.

  • Nice heavy blowback action.

  • Very Accurate 1911 A1 styled replica in many way.

  • True 1911 Single action trigger, excellent pull, very smooth and light.

  • Accurate trigger design and working grip safety.

  • Decent accuracy, not too bad amount off shots for this style of gun about 3+ good magazines.

  • All metal full size dropout magazine.

  • Love the upgraded Tactical features (Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights, rail for accessories)

Cons:

  • Sacrifice fps and shots per CO2 because of the heavy blowback but worth it.

  • Finish on the Cybergun and KWC guns can ware off on the high points a bit but some people like this look.

Comments:

I love my Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 as do many of you based on the amount of sales we have had on that unit! After all who does not appreciate such an accurate replica of the Classic Colt 1911 A1 45 auto? The only problem with the classic 1911 is that it is missing a few of todays more modern features and that's what is so nice abut the new KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB Pistol, it takes an all ready great design and makes it even better by adding the Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights and rail for add on accessories. So if you're a 1911 fan looking for as close as you can get to the real steel in a more modern version than look no further, this is it!

ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field test Shooting Review

ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol Field test Shooting Review

5 Comments

This is the official Field Shooting Test Video Review for the ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol. If you haven't checked out my Table top Video Review for the ASG Bersa BP9CC, make sure to do so as I have some more photos there along with the specifications and details including the Pros & Cons for the this very realistic Bersa airgun replica!

In this part of the review I test the ASG Bersa BP9CC 4.5mm BB Pistol using my Chronograph to see what the 5 shot feet per second average is using a fully charged CO2 cartridge. Even on this rather cold day, the ASG Bersa BP9CC BB Airgun performed even above the factory claimed 350 fps and was very consistent, within a few fps for each shot averaging 366 fps.

I also take the ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol back 20 feet and shoot it at a target using a semi rested position (sand bag up front, kneeling in the back) and shoot 10 rounds into the target getting a not too bad 2 inch grouping with this small short barreled blowback airgun. Near the end of the video I use my high speed slow motion camera setting to capture the blowback in both 400 and 1200 frames per second so you can see for yourself how the blowback action works.

All in all the ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol performed very well and had no malfunctions, the accuracy was respectable for an action blowback pistol like this one and the same goes for the fps being that the ASG Bersa has both blowback and a short barrel. I was also very happy with the CO2 efficiency getting close to 120 shots (6 magazines) out of a single 12 gram CO2 cartridge.

If you're looking for a compact action BB pistol with great looks, realism and performance, make sure to checkout the ASG Bersa BP9CC CO2 Blowback 4.5mm BB Pistol!

By the way in this video I also test out my new Liquid Image Impact Series Camera Goggles to see how they work to protect my eyes while recording video in first person view.

Umarex HK G36 KV AEG Blowback Airsoft Rifle Field Test Shooting Review

2 Comments

This is the official Field Shooting Test Video Review for the Umarex HK G36 KV AEG (EBB) Blowback Airsoft Rifle. If you haven't checked out my Table top Video Review for the Umarex HK G36 KV, make sure to do so as I have some more photos there and also all the specifications and details including the Pros & Cons for the HK G36 KV AEG Blowback Airsoft Rifle.

In this part of the review I test the HK G36 KV AEG Rifle using my Chronograph to see what the 5 shot feet per second average is using fully charged batteries. I got pretty much right bang on to the factory claimed 450 fps using .20 gram 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's and consistency was within a few fps for each shot.

I also take the Umarex HK G36 KV AEG Blowback (EBB) Airsoft Rifle back 30 feet and shoot it at a target using a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back) and shoot in both semi auto and full auto, there really was no real difference in accuracy using both selections, I think the built in magnified scope helped out here to get a very tight 1.5 inch group shooting in semi and full auto.

So far out of all my AEG rifles I would have to say the Umarex HK G36 KV (EBB) performed the best getting very consistent and high fps and tight groupings in both semi and full auto even using light weight .20 gram BB's.

Umarex Smith & Wesson 357 686 CO2 Pellet Revolver Field Test Shooting Review

4 Comments

This is the official Field Test or Shooting Video Review for the Umarex Smith & Wesson 357 686 CO2 Pellet Revolver. If you haven't checked out my Table top Video Review for the Umarex Smith & Wesson 357 686, make sure to do so as I have some more photos there and also all the specifications and details including the Pros & Cons for the Smith & Wesson 357.

In this part of the review I test the Smith & Wesson 357 CO2 Pellet Revolver using my Chronograph to see what the 5 shot feet per second average is using a brand new CO2. I got pretty close to the factory (even a bit over) claimed 425 fps using RWS 7 grain lead pellets on this rather cold day so you can expect better fps on a nice warm summer day.

I also take the Smith & Wesson 357 686 CO2 Pellet Revolver back 30 feet and shoot it at a target using a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back) and again although I did not get teh same half inch grouping I got in my preliminary testing, I did manage to get a nice tight grouping , keep in mind the Umarex Smith & Wesson 357 is an action shooter but is capable of target pistol like accuracy.

All in all the Umarex Smith & Wesson 357 686 CO2 Pellet Revolver performed very well. That said I was able to get tighter groups and higher fps so expect this Umarex high grade CO2 pistol to perform very well for you.

G&G Xtreme 45 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Field Test Shooting Review

2 Comments

This is the official Field Test or Shooting Video Review for the G&G Xtreme 45 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. If you haven't checked out my Table top Video Review for the G&G Xtreme 45, make sure to do so as I have some more photos there and also all the specifications and details including the Pros & Cons for the G&G Xtreme 45.

In this part of the review I test the G&G Xtreme 45 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol using my Chronograph to see what the 5 shot feet per second average is using a mostly brand new CO2. I got pretty close to 400 fps which is not bad considering the very cold day and the fact that I had to reset my Chronograph and missed the most powerful first several shots.

I also take the G&G Xtreme 45 back 30 feet and shoot it at a target using a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back) and again I was plagued by technical difficulties and had to redo this part of the test as one of my cameras was not working. I did get a nice 2 inch 10 shot grouping the first time around, the second go resulted in a 3 inch 10 shot group which is pretty good for an airsoft pistol using light weight .20 gram BB's at this range.

All in all the G&G Xtreme 45 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol performed very well for me and considering the fairly low price point and long list of features I would have to say it is good value for the low cost, and it has some pretty nice curb appeal going for it too.

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

Bolt B4A1 BRSS Blowback with Recoil Airsoft Rifle Full Review

8 Comments

Type: Airsoft AEG.

Manufacturer: Bolt Airsoft.

Model:B4A1 with BRRS (Bolt Recoil Shock System).

Materials: Metal & Nylon.

Weight: 6 pounds.

Barrel: 15 inches, metal.

Propulsion: AEG with BRSS

Action: Semi/full auto, single action.

Ammunition Type: 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB (recommended .20 gram plus).

Ammunition Capacity: 300+ round magazine.

FPS: 366-400.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Bolt Airsoft B4A1 is fairly short and light as it is essentially just an on off switch for the internal electronic components. You can shoot this gun very quickly in semi auto mode, and of course in full auto when full auto position is selected. As is with all AEG rifles there is a bit of a delay while the spring is retracted and released, this is not as noticeable in full auto.

Accuracy: I tested the B4A1 Airsoft rifle by putting around 10 rounds into a target from 30 feet with .36 gram Airsoft 6mm BB's while using a semi rested position (sand bag in the front - standing in the rear). I used a non-magnified red dot scope for this test rather than using the built in iron sights. I got very good result in semi auto and even with the recoil making my sights jump around a bit in full auto still stayed well centered on target and got about a 1.5 inch group in both semi and full auto. My chronograph testing with lighter .20 gram BB's resulted in a 421 fps 5 shot average.

Build Quality: The Bolt Airsoft B4A1 Metal AEG Carbine is very well made with a full Metal upper and lower receiver, along with metal and polymer parts exactly where they would be on the real steel version of an actual Colt M4. The only plastic or nylon components are the stocks and the grips and perhaps some internal parts. I found the adjustable stock and magazine tolerance to be tighter than my King Arms M4A1 I previously reviewed which showed the Bolt B4A1 had a bit higher quality in the workmanship, for the most part the fit and finish was very good!

Realism: As with many Airsoft guns, there is great attention to realism and the Bolt Airsoft BRSS B4A1 Carbine is another great example of an Airsoft Carbine based on the Colt M4 platform. It is an AEG but because of the BRSS (Bolt Recoil Shock System) you get a very nice compromise between a conventional AEG and a GBB (Gas Blow Back Airsoft) gun. In other words, like a standard AEG I get that endless stream of consistent BB's flying down range on target but unlike a true Gas Blow Back Airsoft gun, I don't get that drop off in power and limitation to about 30 usable rounds per magazine . What I do get similar to a GBB is that recoil action that helps make the shooting experience so much more believable! Even the sound from the Bolt B4A1 is much snapper than a standard  AEG and more like a GBB. I also like the fact that the charging handle and forward assist work similarly to a real M4 and also the dust cover cleverly exposes the bolt and internal hop-up for easy adjustment along with the bolt cycling just like a GBB rifle would cycle which is similar to a real steel M4.

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Great attention to detail with lots of working parts.

  • All Metal upper and lower receiver, lots of metal parts throughout.

  • Semi auto & full auto selectable.

  • High capacity 300+ round magazine.

  • Removable carry handle with Weaver/Picatinny rail underneath.

  • Nice high 420 real FPS.

  • Extremely accurate for plastic BB's.

  • Fully adjustable sights with two position Peep sights.

  • 6 position adjustable stock.

  • Easy access to internal hop-up system.

  • Realistic Blowback Recoil system (BRSS) for a very believable shooting experience!

Cons:

  • May not get off as many shots per battery charge as a traditional AEG because of the Bolt Recoil Shock System.

  • Does not come with battery or charger but most higher end AEG's also do not.

  • Not yet readily available in Canada, maybe we can change that :)

Comments:

The Bolt Airsoft B4A1 Blowback Airsoft Carbine is a great compromise for the avid Airsofter looking for a practical skirmish weapon, but also craving the realistic experience of having blowback with recoil which up until now was really only provided by Gas Blow Back systems. I really like this concept and find it great fun to shoot even if its just for plinking in the yard. The overall quality is very good and you just have to love the M4 platform it's based on. If you're into customizing you can mix and match many external and internal parts with other existing Airsoft mechanical parts and I would imagine real steel accessories. I like mine as is with my addition of a riser and Red Dot and if I every get a chance to get out for a skirmish this will be my weapon of choice for sure!
