Four Main Rules of Firearms Safety

Before handling an airsoft gun or real firearm, remember, and remind those around you about these rules.

  • Treat all guns as if they are loaded.
  • Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
  • Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

Please message the mods if something is broken or wrong.

Any Thoughts on the APS CAM870

Hey guys for a while i been thinking on buying this replica, but some say it sucks others say its the best purchase ever, and the same with the generations of it, “gen1 and 3 sucks, get the 2nd gen”, or “1st and 2nd are a waste of money get the latest gen3”

Any thoughts with it? Worth buying it or just a waste of money in general?

Just bought this, any upgrades you’d make out the box or just run it until it dies then open it up?

I'd love to see one of these in airsoft as blowback non blow back and electric

Which one is the better one out of 3.

This post will be a simple one, make a top 3 out of which ones is the "best buy" out of the 3 please.

Im from the EU and changed the currency to USD so the prices may not be relevant to the shops in other countries.

Novritsch SSR4 $271-$325 (Price difference is because of the polymer and metal body)

G&G Combat Raider 16 2.0 $249

Specna Arms SA-E0G EDGE $199

Preferably id buy the one thats also a bit "future proof" and wouldnt fall short on the field.

If you reply thank you if you want to give me pointers on which to buy and why that will also be appreciated.

Real recoil spring in Airsoft Glock?

I am trying to find a stronger recoil spring for my Airsoft G17 gen 5 but i cant find any near where i live. The only recoil springs i can find are for the real glock 17's so could i just put one of them inside my airsoft glock?

BB's Question Pt.2

We got out supplyer to guarentee our diameter of our BB's 5.95 +/- .05

With out company name and our logo (Project Charon) and having a greek mythology setup for our line know this is purly esthetic and has no effect on the prefomance of our bb's each weight series (.2s .3s .4s) will have a greek god or goddess tied to it.

my question is with best quality and best price is there anything els you look for in a brand of bbs? Also do you have loyalty to a particular brand, if so, why?

Have a great day thanks!
