I have had the opportunity to use this gun for a period of time, and I am very impressed. When I first got the UTG Spring Sniper Accushot Airsoft Rifle to use for testing I was amazed at the realistic weight of the gun. The description on our website states that the gun is 6.5lbs and that is definitely true. The only abs plastic on this gun is the stock, the rest of the gun is metal and is very well made.

The gun was simple enough to assemble requiring only 3 screws to secure the barrel to the stock. The gun does not come with any aiming device. Even still without a sight on it, I was able to hit targets at 75 feet repeatedly. I used the .2g rounds in this gun and was amazed with the velocity that this spring powered rifle was able to produce. Using the .12 rounds I was able to get faster velocity but lost the accuracy because of the light weight of the round. Even light breeze caused the BB to move from left to right more than once in the BBs flight path. Using the .2g BB, the breeze did not affect it near as much.

I was also impressed with the bi-pod that came with this gun. It allows for smooth transition from standing to laying with a sturdy platform for aiming the gun. The other great thing this package comes with is the speed loader, and the 3 point sniper sling.

Using the scope below really increased my range and made the whole experience much more enjoyable.

I was shooting the above gun pretty accurately until I put on this scope. Once I did that, I was dead accurate. This is the NcStar 3-9×40 Scope, with it I was able to hit targets at 125 feet continually, giving me an extra 50 feet of precise sniping range.

The good thing about this scope is that the cross hairs are able to be sighted in to the gun. This scope could be used with a real fire arm and get great accuracy out of it, so using it with the Airsoft guns even though it is Airsoft and round projectiles that are very hard to predict. The scope has real weapon weight and quality and is definitely a good investment. I would recommend this scope to anyone looking to better their Airsoft experience.

I am always a little hesitant when pulling big guns out of the box to review them. When I realized that this one had a grenade launcher on it, I wasn’t terribly excited. I have always been more of a handgun type of guy.

This gun really surprised me though. It is a full 1/1 scale gun and I wasn’t prepared for how heavy the gun would feel. From the moment I took it outside and started firing I felt right at home. It has an FPS of 300 and was very accurate up to up to about 75’; I was getting 5” groupings at that range. I let it rip at full auto and fired a good 50 rounds very quickly while keeping similar accuracy. When I started getting around 100’ the BBs started to drift down and to the right. I wasn’t able to group them as close at that range, but if I adjusted, and there was no wind, I was able to hit the target.

The grenade launcher was a fun accessory. You don’t have to use it, but it is a nice surprise for the unexpected victim.
It also comes with 2 hand guards, 2 magazines, and tactical 3 point sling, adjustable hop up, replaceable piston, rechargeable battery and charger. This M4 Electric Airsoft Rifle is perfect for customizing and adding all of your favorite accessories to.

All in all I felt that for the price, the gun was one of the best in its class. And one of the better that I have tried out, rifle and handgun alike.

Today we are going to be talking about the Scott Vectra Airsoft/Paintball Full Goggle Mask. Out of all the protective eye-wear that I have worn I like this the most. Don’t get me wrong if I want to impress the ladies on a Friday evening, I would choose the Ray-Bans over the Vectra mask. When we have a full scale war, I do enjoy having my face fully protected. With an anti-fog lens this model far exceeds its predecessors and the popular mesh masks. It has 170° field of vision which is great for scanning the surrounding terrain and getting an accurate picture of what is going on without having to move much. It fits over glasses, has a very comfortable non-slip strap, and uses hypo-allergenic foam. Superbly made these goggles will protect you even at close range. Basically this is a classy option that will serve you well for years to come. And at less than $20, there is no better option for your dollar.

Have you ever been crawling on the ground and couldn’t quite steady your rifle consistently enough to take out your best friend? (With airsoft bb’s of course!) If you answered yes, then this small portable bipod is for you. It is easy to set up and can mount on the bottom of your gun for ready to use action anytime. Made of high tech durable aluminum, the deluxe picatinny & swivel stud mounting system allows you to better hit your target with unerring accuracy again and again. It was very quick and easy to assemble. Become the ultimate sniper with our unique and varied selection of airsoft sniper accessories and airsoft guns!

Some people love shooting their automatic electric guns because of how fast they shoot and some people love using spring guns because they don’t have to worry about their battery dying on the field, well why not combine them both? The M4 M203 AEG Assault Rifle does just that, it combines the speed and power of a fully automatic electric gun with the reliability of a spring gun. The spring gun actually comes in the form of a grenade launcher which adds to the cool factor and the gun comes with 2 different styles of adjustable stocks so you can change the look of your gun. It doesn’t get much better then this!

Some of our most popular Airsoft Sniper Rifles are Tokyo Marui Airsoft Rifles.

A large, blunt airsoft gun with a high rate of fire may be fine for some people, but there are many of us that are looking for a high rate of fire and portablity as well. The TSD PCR-97 M4 CQB AEG Electric Airsoft Rifle is just the thing. It’s folding stock and features will awe even the most zealous airsoft enthusaist.

Here are some of the features we love in the TSD PCR-97:

* Unique Serial Number Assigned
* Metal Receiver
* Metal Outer Barrel
* FIRSCH Style RIS
* Flip-up Front Sight
* QD Sling Mount

Meet the TSD R5K-PDW Assault Rifle AEG Electric Airsoft Gun operating @ 330 FPS, 200 Round capacity, and 600 Rounds Per Minute. It looks great and has all the bells and whistles we’ve come to appreciate from TSD tactical and frankly it’s scarry how these guys find a way to pack so much performance into something at this price level. This G5K has the following features of interest:

- reinforced metal gearbox
- (1) 28 round standard magazine
- (1) 200 round high capacity magazine
- tactical foregrip
- Full auto, semi auto and safety shooting modes
- true-to-scale design
- adjustable hop-up

Again though, the TSD R5K-PDW Assault Rifle’s most riveting feature is that 600 rounds per minute rate of fire. Make sure you take a bucket of BB’s with you to your next airsoft game, you’ll need em.

Now you can feel twice as good! Light up your friends and don’t worry about using your BBs in the outdoors. Check out these Biodegradable 0.20g Airsoft BBs. Don’t worry, ’cause in 180 days these puppies won’t exist, they’ll biodegrade outside. These are the 0.20g size BBs and are competition grade AEG BBs as well. We don’t recommend them as an MRE (Meals Ready to Eat) replacement, but again, they will help you sleep better at night knowing you are good to the outdoors… (that is unless you have the night watch duty.)
