In this real world shooting Field Test Video of the ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, I find out what the velocity is using a brand new standard 12 gram CO2 shooting 5.1 grain 4.5mm Steel BB’s through my Chronograph. I then setup a fresh paper target 30 feet down range and shoot 10 rounds into it using seated semi rested shooting position to find out if the ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol Field Test Review anywhere near the bullseye out of the box and if it can get a tight grouping. If you have not already watched my Table Top Video Review for the ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, then make sure to do so for details, specifications and some nice close up video.
For my velocity test of the ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, I a lot of rounds through the chronograph as the fps velocity kept creeping up, but I did average out the last 5 shots to get my official average. The slowest fps was 263 with the fastest shot hitting 289 fps, this averaged 283 fps when using the last 5 shots which was almost bang on to what ASG claims of 285. Temperature was maybe just under 20 degrees Celsius which is around 65 or so degrees Fahrenheit, so good to get middle of the road performance here. In warmer temperature you can expect a bit higher velocities.
I then placed my paper target 30 feet downrange and using a semi rested shooting position (hands rested on a sandbag up front and sitting on a stool in the back). I placed 10 rounds into the target and was able to get right around a 2 inch shot grouping with just one flyer that went a bit higher than the rest, probably was me! I was aiming just under the bullseye and the ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol shot about 3 inches low and just a hair to the left but the good news is the sights are fully adjustable so you can zero it in perfectly for your shooting style and range of shooting.
I really like this ASG CZ Shadow 2 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, it is a bit of a handful at almost 3 pounds but it feels well balanced and the blowback is nice and strong. It has a really great single action trigger that is short and light and predictable. You can also shoot in double action if you drop the hammer for some reason, just make sure you have already reached the slide to load a BB in the breach. The fps is not super high with this Full Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, but it did stay very consistent during my testing not dropping nearly as fast or as much as other similar CO2 BB Pistols. The price is a little bit higher on this version but you get a lot of gun for the money with quality materials throughout.
