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)
If you are interested more in the specifications and details fo reach of these Umarex Glock Licensed Air Pistols you can watch my Table Top Comparison Video where I go into the details and explain the differences of these Glock CO2 BB Pistols.
In Part 2 I test out how accurate each of these Umarex Glock Licensed Air Pistols is side by side to see if Non-blowback versus Partial-blowback versus Full-blowback makes much of a difference? The results may surprise you a little bit so make sure to watch the entire video to see how which Umarex Glock CO2 BB Pistol performs shooting at a paper target from 30 feet away using a rested and seated shooting position for best results.
Here again are the Umarex Glock Licensed CO2 BB Pistols I test out in this Review:
In this Vimeo Shootout Comparison Video I test head to head four Umarex CO2 BB GLock Air Pistols to see what the real world FPS is for each of them and I also give a little bit of my feedback on them at the end of the video. If you are wondering about their accuracy that will be covered in my next video coming out really soon…
And by the way I you want a little more info on these four Umarex Glock Air Pistols then Checkout my Table Top Comparison Video I made earlier for them.
Here are the Umarex Glock CO2 BB Pistols I test out in this Video Review:
I have review all three of these super fun Full Auto CO2 BB Rifles so make sure to watch those YouTube Field Test Video Shooting Reviews to see how they performed on their own in the Sea Can Indoor Airgun Shooting Range.
In this Field Test Shooting Video I have a little bit of fun to see which of the three Full Auto CO2 BB Rifles is the King in terms of FPS Velocity and all out full auto mag dump acuracy.
All there of these BB Rifles are awesome and I highly recommend picking one up or maybe even all of them! You can get them in our Canada and US Replica Airgun Stores…
There is not much to really say here, it’s all about watching this one as I basically shoot stuff with the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle and figure out how many 100 round belts I can get out of a fully charged 3000 PS 48 CU PCP Tank. So make sure to watch this one for sure!
There have been lots of requests for me to get to the Field Test Shooting Video for the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle and I know I have been a it late getting this one out there. To be honest I was not looking forward to pumping up the rather large PCP tank and loading up all the 100 round magazines but it had to be done and so here we are…
In this Part 1 of my Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle Field Test Review I perform my usual Sea Can Indoor Shooting Test and place some rounds through my Chronograph to see what the actual FPS is. I also shoot a 10 round group at a paper target 30 feet down range to see what kind of accuracy we can expect from the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle. By the way in Part 2 I take my Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle outside to have some fun with it and blast away in full auto so make sure to watch that video coming out very soon…
The Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle with a full PCP tank pressurized right up to the max 3000 psi and using 15.43 grain lead pellets was able to get an average fps of 422 which worked out to 6.1 foot pounds of energy or about 8.3 Joules. By the way I was able to get through 3 full 100 round magazines with a fully charged 48 CU Tank which is impressive. Shots did slow down a bit at the end but the gun was able to cycle fully.
In terms of accuracy my Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle was not the most accurate performer I have tested but considering it is a full auto Airgun and not so much made for total accuracy, the 3 inch 10 shot grouping I did get was good enough for me! Of course I was shooting in semi auto mode during this test which is pretty easy to do, no selector switch to worry about, just don’t hold the trigger down and you get semi auto shooting from the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle, hold it down and you get full auto, and the tighter you hold the trigger down the faster the air machine-gun rate of fire operates.
So far so good, no miss-feeds or any problems with my Air-Ordnance SMG 22 Full Auto Pellet Rifle. now to take it outside and let loose on some clay pigeons, pop cans and a metal target.
Type: Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer:KWC. Model: PT92 Materials: Almost entirely all Metal. Weight: 2.4 pounds (1089 grams). Barrel: 4.5 inches, metal non-rifled. Propulsion: 12 gram CO2. Action: Semi and full auto, single and double action with full blowback. Ammunition Type: 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 27 rounds full size drop out metal magazine. FPS: 388 using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is good in both single and double action. Of course in single action the trigger is much shorter and lighter but that said double action is still very usable. Once you fire a round in either double or single action the blowback action will continue to cock the hammer back allowing for single action followup shots.
Accuracy: The KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol performed OK during my Field Test Shooting review in terms of accuracy. I shot it first in semi auto to get a sense of the overall accuracy and in terms of elevation it was right in the middle of the target. I did find the shots spread out a bit side to side perhaps as much as 4-5 inches during my test grouping. As expected when I flipped the happy switch to full auto the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol pretty much sprayed the target working its way up as the recoil from the full auto blowback action lifted the barrel. In terms of power the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol shot pretty hot, I was using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s and was still able to achieve close to 400 fps.
Build Quality: The KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol like the other all metal KWC made Beretta 92 or Taurus PT92 copies out there being sold under different company names, is a good value blowback Beretta Taurus Airgun no matter which version you get. It’s not the best or worst, right about in the middle but most of the bugs have been worked out since it came out just after the KWC 1911 line and that’s been out for some time now. I find the finish does come off a bit easy but when this happens it kind of gives the Airgun a more realistic and slightly worn in look to it.
Realism: The KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a One to One replica of the real steel Taurus PT92 and does a great job at replicating it. You would be hard pressed to see any differences in the Airgun version versus the 9mm caliber firing version until you pick one up and work the parts a bit. Even so pretty much all the mechanical parts work the same as a real steel Taurus PT92 including the ability to filed strip the Airgun version and gain access to the hop-up and other internal parts.
Pros:
All metal construction.
Full length blowback action with nice heavy recoil.
Accurate Taurus PT92 replica.
Single and double action triggers both feel good.
Double stack style metal magazine holds the CO2 and Airsoft BB’s.
No ugly white writing ( warning instructions) on the gun.
Fully filed strippable.
Adjustable Hop-up.
Recessed barrel for added realism.
FPS is fairly high for a full blowback gun.
Cons:
Finish on KWC guns can wear off quickly in the high spots but has gotten better over the years.
Full blowback action especially when in full auto mode will eat up a lot of CO2.
Comments: If you are a Beretta 92 or Taurus PT92 fan than I am sure you have already taken a look at the KWC line of Beretta 92 and Taurus PT92 Airguns, maybe in a steel BB version or Airsoft version? KWC first offered it in this PT92 style and then later brought out a more true to form Beretta 92 version. Depending on where you live and which model you buy you may or may not have the full auto feature but to be honest full auto is fun at first but then you realize you don’t really hit much with it and just end up wasting a lot fo CO2 and BB’s. Checkout our Replica Airguns Canada and US Stores for all the different versions and models of this KWC Beretta and Taurus style Airgun.
My Vimeo Video Review for the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol:
Type: Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer:KWC. Model: M1911 Materials: Almost entirely all Metal. Weight: 1.97 pounds (894 grams). Barrel: 4.5 inches, metal non-rifled. Propulsion: 12 gram CO2. Action: Semi auto, single action only with full blowback. Ammunition Type: 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 14-15 rounds full size drop out metal magazine. FPS: 360+.
Trigger Pull: The Single Action Only trigger pull on the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is exactly as it should be and just like what you would find on a real steel Colt 1911 pistol. That would be short, light and crisp. As there is no double action mode, you are required to rack the slide back to chamber a rounds and cock the hammer for the first shot, afterwards the blowback action will do this for you.
Accuracy: I wasn’t overly impressed with the accuracy of the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol when I tested it out in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Airgun Range but it is what it is. The M1911 shot really high and a bit loose getting about a 5 inch 10 shot grouping, perhaps a hop-up adjustment was in order but this is how it shot right out of the box which is how I test all my Airguns. In terms of power the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol was bang on shooting .25 gram Airsoft BB’s at right around 350 fps.
Build Quality: The KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol like the other all metal KWC made 1911’s out there being sold under different company names, is a good value Blowback 1911 Airgun no matter which version you get. It’s not the best or worst, right about in the middle but most of the bugs have been worked out since this is one of the longes CO2 1911’s out there and for the most part has stayed about the same. I find the finish does come off a bit easy but when this happens it kind of gives the 1911 Airgun a more realistic and slightly worn in look to it.
Realism: The KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a One to One replica of the real steel M1911 A1 and does a great job at replicating it. You would be hard pressed to see any differences in the Airgun version and the .45 caliber firing version until you pick one up and work the parts a bit, even so pretty much all the mechanical parts work the same as a real steel M1911 A1 including the ability to filed strip the Airgun version and gain access to the hop-up and other internal parts.
Pros:
All metal construction.
Full length blowback action with nice heavy recoil.
Accurate Colt M1911 A1 replica.
Single action only trigger feels good, short light and crips.
Accurate trigger design and working grip safety.
Metal magazine holds the CO2 and 14-15 Airsoft BB’s.
No ugly white writing (warning instructions) on the slide of the gun.
Fully filed strippable.
Adjustable Hop-up.
Recessed barrel for added realism.
FPS is just about perfect, just over 360 fps using .20 gram BB’s, not too powerful but Canada import friendly.
Cons:
Finish on KWC guns can wear off quickly in the high spots but has gotten better over the years.
Full blowback action will eat up a lot of CO2.
Comments: I have always been a fan of the 1911 pistol and the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is no exception to this. Like all of the KWC 1911’s out there being redistributed by the big airgun companies the KWC version is really no different other than more simple KWC branding and with no licensing on the Airgun to speak of. Some people prefer the cleaner look to it and some will like to have licensed versions, to each their own. Do some looking around on our website and find a KWC made 1911 you like best, perhaps a simple KWC M1911 A1 like the one reviewed here or maybe a more tactical version with all the more modern updates to it like a rail, ambidextrous controls and tactical triggers and hammers.
My Vimeo Video Review for the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol:
If you have not already watched my Preview video for both of these Airsoft pistols then make sure to watch that video for details and specifications along with some nice tight shots of each Airsoft gun.
Another multi gun Field Test Shooting Review, in this Indoor Sea Can Field Test Shooting Video I test out the KWC M1911 and PT92 Full Blowback CO2 Airsoft Pistols. I first place 5 6mm .25 gram plastic Airsoft BB’s through my Chronograph to find out what the real world velocity is for each Airsoft Pistol and then I perform my accuracy test where I shoot multiple rounds into a paper target 30 feet down range to see how close of a grouping I can get with each Airgun. I use a seated and rested shooting position to eliminate as much human factor as possible. By the way is used a brand new 12 gram CO2 and the temperature was 25 degrees Celsius (77 degree Fahrenheit) inside the Airgun Sea Can Shooting Range.
Starting with the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol I averaged 351 fps with the fastest shot being 353 and the slowest shot 345, so very consistent for sure! Accuracy for the KWC M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol could have been a bit better, I had to adjust my aim point to just under the bottom rings and even so the KWC M1911 wanted to shoot high, I was able to get around a 5 inch 10 shot grouping but was hoping for a bit better.
Next I tested out the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol which does have a full auto option. For the velocity portion of my Field Test the KWC PT92 did shoot a bit after than the MWC M1911 getting an average fps of 388 with the fastest shot hitting 396 and the slowest shot at 383 so again very consistent performance. Since the KWC PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is capable of full auto shooting I decided to shoot 5 rods on my paper target to get a base accuracy and this resulted in a bit of a lateral spread fairly close to the bullseye about 4-5 inches apart. I then did a mag dump and as expected pretty much sprayed 6mm Airsoft BB’s all over the place but most shot a bit high and to the left probably because of the blowback recoil action.
The KWC M1911 and PT92 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistols are both classic Airguns and great options if your looking for a 1911 or Beretta styled Airgun to add to your collection without all the markings and white writing on them.
This is a combined Filed Test Shooting Video for the KWC 2022 NBB - 24/7 NBB - 24/7 Blowback CO2 BB Pistols. I already made an update video for these KWC Steel BB Pistols since they are slightly different version I have not covered in any video beforehand.
As per my typical Field Test Shooting Videos I first place 5 shots through my Chronograph to test out the real world fps of each gun. I then shoot 10 rounds on a paper target setup 30 feet away using a seated and rested shooting position. My ammo for this test was 5.1 grain zinc coated 4.5mm Steel BB’s for all airguns along within a brand new 12 gram CO2. The temperature in my indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range was around 25 degrees Celsius (77 degrees Fahrenheit) for this test.
First up was the KWC 2022 NBB 4.5mm CO2 Steel BB Pistol with an average five shot fps of 347. The KWC 2022 NBB 4.5mm CO2 Steel BB Pistol was the least accurate of the three Airguns tested on this day getting about a 5-6 inch 10 shot grouping. I did notice when I went to edit the video that it did shoot a double shot on the first shot which lowered that first shot making the group a bit larger. This may have been as a result of pulling the trigger with the safety on right before which probably loaded a round into the barrel followed by the second pull loading a second BB into the barrel.
I then tested out the KWC 24/7 NBB 4.5mm CO2 Steel BB Pistol which was by far the most powerful Airgun tested out of the three hitting a top fps of 452 with a five shot average of 420 fps! The KWC 24/7 NBB 4.5mm CO2 Steel BB Pistol was also fairly accurate getting a nice 2 inch 10 shot grouping, slightly to the left and just under the bullseye. Nothing wrong with that!
The last KWC 4.5mm Steel BB pistol for the day was my KWC 24/7 Blowback CO2 4.5mm Steel BB Pistol. The only only blowback single action shooter out of the bunch. As expected from a blowback CO2 Airgun the fps was lower averaging just under 300 fps (298 to be precise). The surprise of the day was the accuracy from the KWC 24/7 Blowback CO2 4.5mm Steel BB Pistol was the best out of this test group getting really close to a 1 inch grouping very well centered just a tad to the right but with near perfect elevation.
Depending on what you are going for, all of these Airguns are great choices. If you want ultimate power perhaps go for the KWC 24/7 NBB 4.5mm CO2 Steel BB Pistol with its 450+ fps, if you want accuracy and realism then I would suggest the KWC 24/7 Blowback CO2 4.5mm Steel BB Pistol with its full blowback action and excellent accuracy.
You’ve seen them all before but have you seen them in this exact configuration? All the Airguns I show off in this video are made by KWC and generally come in either Steel BB and or Airsoft versions along with non-blowback and blowback versions. You can even find most of them redistributed by other companies like Umarex, Cybergun, Gletcher, Crosman and others even licensed in some cases.
The versions I am showing today I have not review yet in these exact configuration and all of them are the KWC made and distributed unlicensed versions, so nice and clean with virtually none of that ugly white lettering on them…
In this Field Test Shooting Video I shoot the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol in my indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see what the actual velocity is and also see how well it will group shooting 10 Airsoft BB’s at a paper target 30 feet down range. I was using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s for my testing purposes with Propane Gas as my propellant. The temperature inside the Sea Can was around 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit).
I started off my Field Test Shooting video with the Chronograph portion of my test and placed 5 shots through my Chrony using a brand new 12 gram CO2 cartridge. I have to mention the fps consistency was very impressive with all five shots only varying within 6 fps of each other the slowest being 330 fps and the fastest test shot being 336 fps. My end 5 shot average fps was 33fps again using a .25 gram Airsoft BB.
I then loaded my ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol with 10 rounds for the accuracy portion of my test and was able to get all 10 shots within a nice 2 inch grouping. The shot placement was well centered left to right and a little bit high on target which I am sure could be adjusted for using the hop-up.
The ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a rally nice Airsoft pistol, it has a great trigger with a firm blowback action. The super consistent fps is pretty much exactly where you want it to be, just powerful enough to allow for Canada import but not too powerful for Airsoft gaming. The accuracy was also very good right out of the box so pretty much nothing to complain about in terms of performance. Another nice Airsoft product from ASG!
In this Field Test Shooting Video I shoot the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol in my indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see what the real world velocity is and also how well it will group shooting 10 rounds at a paper target 30 feet down range. I was using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s for my testing along with Propane Gas. The temperature inside the sea can was around 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit).
Because the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol coms with both a shorter internal barrel and a screw on extended barrel designed to be hidden inside a mock suppressor I thought it would make sense to test both the short and long barrels to see what the fps difference would be. With the short internal barrel I shot 4 rounds and average 255 fps. I then added the longer barrel extension again shooting 4 rounds but this time I averaged 363 fps so a good 100+ fps faster with the longer barrel attachment added to the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol.
For my accuracy portion of the testing I left the extended barrel on the gun but was a bit disappointed in my 10 shot grouping. The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol did not get the tightest of groupings coming in at around 5 inches. It also shot a little bit to the right but vertically was fairly well centered. Perhaps changing up the barrels and lengths might make a difference?
I did really like the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol, it has a really light trigger that is a bit hard to find the release point, the blowback action is crisp but not overly heavy. I’m pretty sure the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a VFC product so the quality is bang on. Other than the grouping being a little bit spread out I really liked everything about the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol.
Type: Blowback CO2 Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer: ASG Model:CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel. Materials: Metal and polymer construction. Weight: 2.3 Pounds (1050 grams). Barrel Length: 4.4 inches (11.2 cm). Total Length: 9 Inches (22.9 cm). Propulsion: CO2 Action: Single and double action. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s. Ammunition Capacity: 25 round magazine. Max FPS: 376 fps.
Trigger Pull: The ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol has a single and double action trigger setup. Both feel pretty decent, the double action trigger pull is a little on the heavy side but you won’t really be shooting in double action all that much since the blowback action will cock the hammer between shots allowing for the vast majority of your shots to be single action which you will find are short and very light. There is a slight bit of take-up followed by a crisp very light release.
Accuracy: So far I have not made my Field Test Shooting Video for the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Check back shortly for my upcoming Field Test Shooting Video for the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, until then the shooting results will remain a mystery but if this product is like otter ASG products it should produce good results for me .
Build Quality: The build quality of the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is what I would expect from an ASG Airgun. The materials used look good and have an excellent finish to them. Slide wiggle is very minimal and all the mechanical parts feel solid and responsive. You will find metal parts where you would expect them to be like in the slide, barrel components, magazine, slide catch release take-down leaver, safety, hammer, trigger, rear sight, magazine release and lots of other internal parts.
Realism: In terms of realism the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is an excellent copy of the real steel CZ P-09 with all the markings and licensing in all the right places. Mechanically everything works about the same including full field strip-ability and the ability to add a mock suppressor if you want to.
Pros:
Build quality feels really goods, lots of weight to this Airsoft Pistol.
Full length blowback action.
Accurate licensed CZ P-09 replica.
Trigger pull is nice in both single and double action.
Picatinny rail for adding accessories like a tac light or laser.
Double stack full size drop out Metal Magazine holds the CO2 and 25 Airsoft BB’s
Comes with black and orange tips depending on what you prefer to use.
Easy to see white dot front and back sights.
CO2 powered makes it easy for Canada import.
Easily Filed Strippable.
Tips are easy to remove for the addition of a mock compensator.
Adjustable Hop-up.
Cons:
Sights don’t seem to be adjustable.
Controls are not all ambidextrous.
Comments: The ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is another great addition to the ASG CZ line of Airguns. You can now get CZ Replica Airguns from ASG in a variety of models including the CZ 75D, CZ 75 P-07 Duty, CZ 75D Compact and of course the CZ P-09 in Airsoft, Steel BB and even Pellet firing ammunition. I would say the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is probably one of the most realistic in terms of looks, action and functionally but no matter what your preferences is, ASG will have something for you in the CZ lineup of Airguns for sure!
My Vimeo Table Top Review for the ASG CZ P-09 Threaded Barrel CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol:
Type: GBB Airsoft Pistol. Manufacturer: Cybergun Model:FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical. Materials: Metal and polymer construction. Weight: 1.8 Pound (820 grams). Barrel Length: 4.8 inch (12.2 cm). Total Length: 8.9 Inches (22.6 cm). Propulsion: Green gas or propane Action: Single and double action. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s. Ammunition Capacity: 25 round magazine. Max FPS: 380 fps.
Trigger Pull: The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol has a single and double action trigger setup. Both feel pretty good with a surprisingly light double action trigger pull, the blowback action will cock the hammer between shots allowing for the vast majority of your shots being single action which you will find are short and very light. There is a little bit of take-up followed by a crisp light release.
Accuracy: So far I have not made my Field Test Shooting Video for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol. Keep posted for my upcoming Field Test Shooting Video for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Threaded Barrel GBB Airsoft Pistol, until then I can not really comment on the shooting results.
Build Quality: The build quality of the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol feels really good, it has a nice weight to it and feels really solid in the hand. The materials used look good and have an excellent finish to them. There is just a bit of a slide wiggle but not excessive. You will find metal parts where you would expect them to be like in the slide, barrel components, magazine, slide catch release, take-down leaver, hammer and lots of internal parts.
Realism: In terms of realism the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is pretty much the spitting image of the real steel version with all the markings and licensing in all the right places. Mechanically everything works about the same including full field strip-ability with full ambidextrous controls.

Comments: The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a really great looking gun. The quality is on par with KWA and KJ Works in my opinion. I’m not sure who actually makes it as Cybergun is the license holder and distributer but I feel like the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a step up from the standard KWC gun often used as the base. I look forward to testing out the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol in the Sea Can indoor Airgun Shooting range to see how it performs. I’ll be testing with the short barrel and with the barrel extension installed to see what the fps difference is between the two.
My Vimeo Table Top Review for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol:
In this Table Top Preview video I take a look at two Blowback Airsoft Pistols one Distributed by Cybergun and the otters Distributed by ASG. Both are very similar in that they have threaded barrels which makes them much suppressor ready the big difference being that the ASG CZ P-09 is CO2 powered while the FN Herstal FNX-45 is Green Gas or Propane powered. IN this video I talk about the specifications and details and also show both Airsoft Pistols up nice and close.
I’ve had the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle sitting around for a bit but just haven’t gotten around to reviewing it. When I saw it at SHOT Show a couple years back I was super excited about it probably because I though it was going to have internal blowback action making it function very much like the real steel 22LR Ruger 10/22. Once I finally got it in my hands I came to discover the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle did not in fact have internal blowback and for the most part was a double action shooter. Yes you can work the Bolt Handle to cock the internal hammer making the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle more of a single action trigger but you won’t be doing any action shooting this way, you’ll have to shoot in double action for that.
Getting on to my Field Test Shooting Review for the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle this is how it went! As always a placed 5 rounds through my Chronograph to see what the real world fps was. Umarex claims with the detuned Canada version I was testing right around 450 using light weigth alloy pellets which are generally going to be around 5 grains. I like using lead pellets so I went with some 6.9 grain RWS lead pellets and was able to get a decent average fps of 420. (Keep in mind the US version is claimed to get around 650 fps using standard lead pellets). The temperature was around 24 degrees Celsius or 75 degrees Fahrenheit in my indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range so not overly hot but a bit on the warmer side.
Next I setup a fresh paper target 30 feet down range and load up a full 10 round magazine and emptied it into the target shooting from a seated and rested position. I decided to shoot the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle in single action for this test requiring me to charge the bolt handle before each shot. I was impressed to see a nice 10 round grouping with about half of my shots inside the bullseye and the other half just a little to the left, elevation was bang on and the grouping was just under an inch with all shots overlapping a bit.
I’m kind of thinking I may have prematurely written off the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle because it didn’t have blowback action. I was expecting the trigger to be long and heavy but the trigger is actually really good even in double action mode so don’t let the lack of blowback action turn you off for the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle at least in terms of trigger pull. Where the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifle excels in in consistency. It has the ability of being a real tac driver and as it’s based on the Ruger 10/22 platform I imagine there are all kinds of add-ons you can get for it. If you own the 22LR version and want to be able to shoot a 10/22 virtually anywhere for even less then the cost of 22LR ammo then consider picking up yourself one of the Umarex Ruger 10/22 CO2 Pellet Rifles in our Canada or US online Replica Airguns Stores.
Type: BB Rifle. Manufacturer: Crosman. Model: R1 AR. Materials: Metal & plastic. Weight: 6 pounds (2.7 kilograms). Length: 26.25 / 29.25 inches (Stock closed / extended). Propulsion: 12 gram CO2 dual cartridges. Action: Blowback - single action only. Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 25 rounds. FPS: 430fps. Rate of Fire: 1400 rounds per minute in full auto
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is single action only since the charging handle must be cocked first before you can shoot it. The trigger is short and fairly light as you would expect from an AR type trigger action. The real fun happens with the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun when you switch it over to full auto mode and with just one pull and hold of the trigger you empty the 25 round magazine in mere seconds.
Build Quality: The Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is well made all around. Weighing in at 6 pounds without any add on accessories it feel solid and well built. There is a lot of metal going on inside and out of this rifle but keep in mind the top and bottom receiver are plastic with metal parts where they need to be like in the internals, pretty much all the working parts are metal, the magazine is full metal, the buffer tub is metal, charging handle, selector switch, magazine release, bolt release, trigger and of course the barrel is metal.
Realism: The Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is about as real as you are going to get in a CO2 Blowback AR/M4 styled Airgun. You can even take it apart and split the top and bottom receivers like the real steal version. The blowback action gives you some recoil but more importantly offers a true single action trigger and of course the full auto ability we all love. Almost all the working parts work like they would on a real AR / M4 other than the forward assist which is moulded into the receiver.
Pros:
Super realistic working M4/AR 4.5mm BB Rifle just like the otters Crosman Rifles in this lineup.
Full blowback operation with both semi and full auto shooting, can feel the blowback operation rocking the gun.
Great weight and feel to it.
Almost everything works exactly like the real steel version. (Charging handle, dust cover, bolt release, magazine release, selector switch…)
Duel CO2 full metal drop out magazine that holds the 25 4.5mm steel BB’s as well.
Adjustable and customizable AR butt stock.
Included red dot sight and ability to add pop-up iron sights.
Lots of rails of mounting additional cool hardware.
Removable flash hider that uses standard threading.
Cons:
Receiver is plastic but well made and does not compromise feel or weight since there is lots of metal throughout this gun.
No iron sights included.
Comments:
The Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is really pretty much the same as the Crosman DPMS SBR and Crosman MPW with more or less Cosmetic changes. Like the Crosman MPW the Crosman R1 has an AR compatible Rear stock and pistol grip, the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is the only Crosman AR Full Auto CO2 BB Rifle that has the ability to change out the flash hider, you can even put a mock suppression or in it if you choose to. No matter which of the Crosman AR Full Auto CO2 BB Rifles you chooses to get they are mechanically every similar and share most of the same parts. I would say the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is the most customizable to date but they are all fantastic Air Rifles!
My Table Top Video of the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun:
Here we are with yet another Crosman AR styled Full Auto Blowback CO2 BB Rifle and they just keep getting better, I say that lightly as even the first version the Crosman DPMS SBR still holds up to the 3 part lineup. It kind of has to since all three of them can be mixed and matched in terms of the uppers and lowers, magazines and I am sure most intern parts. Check out the Crosman DPMS SBR and the Crosman MPW for reference as I have made full table top and field test shooting videos for them already.
The purpose as always for my Field Test Shooting Videos is to find out how the airgun being reviewed performs in terms of velocity and accuracy, and if the ratings on paper end up being the same or close to the tested results. Crosman claims the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun is capable of shooting 5.1 grain 4.5mm Steel BB’s at up to 430 fps. When I tested the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun using my Chronograph averaging out 5 shots using a brand new set of CO2 cartridges I averaged 395 fps. Note the temperature in my Indoor Airgun Sea Can Shooting Range was about average at about 24 degrees Celsius or right around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Comparatively I was able to get 405 fps from the Crosman DPMS SBR and around 385 fps with the Crosman MPW. Temperature may have beene slightly different on those testing days so that needs to be factored in.
Moving on to the accuracy portion of this Field Test Shooting Review for the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun, I placed 10 semi auto shots on my paper target setup 30 feet downrange. I was using a rested and seated shooting position to help minimize human factor. I was able to get pretty much a 1 inch grouping with my 10 semi auto shots which was nit surprising as I have been able to get tight shot placement like this from the Crosman AR series before.
I then flipped the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun semi auto selector switch to full auto and dumped the remaining 10 rounds into my paper target in full auto mode flowed by another full 25 round magazine again in full auto and the grouping only stretched out to about 2.5 -3 inches even with all the full auto vibrations and rocking around of the gun. Shot placement was a little bit high and to the left but this can easily be corrected using the red dot sight adjustments.
In summary the Crosman R1 CO2 Blowback BB Machine Gun performed a lot like the Crosman DPMS SBR and the Crosman MPW which makes since since all of them are virtually mechanically the same. In the end I think it really comes down to which of the Crosman AR type full auto BB rifles you like the look of since they areal very capable shooters. If you can’t decide then maybe get one of each :)
