The noble AK-47 is one of my favorite guns of all time.  It is recognized the world over and is remarkably simple with only about a dozen and a half moving parts.  It is for this reason that the AK-47 is used in rural and poor regions, in addition to the fact it is remarkably durable.  An AK can lay under sand for days or weeks on end, then be picked up and ready for use immediately.  Even much more expensive weapons do not have this durability, but the AK-47 really is something special.

It is rare that truly realistic sniper rifles come through here, but this is definitely one of the good ones.  The AGM VSR Sniper Rifle is made with real wood and metal, and can be assembled very quickly using remarkably few parts.  Perhaps most importantly, it has been tested for superb accuracy as well as speed.  This gun can shoot at over 370FPS, and when it comes to sniping, speed is something that is very important, along with the accuracy.  After all, if people can get out of the way before your pellet gets there, what good is your shot?

The name of this product may sound cool, but what’s even cooler is how amazing the specs are.  It can achieve a whopping 315FPS with as large as a .27g BB, and is powered by none other than green gas.  Perhaps most importantly, this gun is ultra-realistic, both in its structural appearance and the way it functions, using a very authentic type of bolt operation.  Check out all of the details at the complete M2 Carbine page!

You may not know this about me, but I am a huge fan of sleek airsoft pistols.  There’s just something about them that is amazing.  Plus, gas pistols are some of the strongest and most feared pieces of equipment in all of the game.  I remember one time I was playing airsoft against some people with electric airsoft rifles, and I decided to finally draw out the gas pistol I’d borrowed from my friend.  One of the enemies immediately screamed, “Oh S&#*, he’s got the pistol!” and started to retreat, but not before I managed to hit him a few times.  The other opponent also was on the receiving end of a few shots, and it felt really good to overcome rifles with a single pistol.

I’ll be the first to admit that this product is expensive, but it’s oh so worth it.  The Polar Star Fusion Engine Kit is the perfect starting material for one of the most innovative airsoft guns ever designed.  This incredible piece of machinery has features you’ve never seen on anything else and probably never even thought of.  I know I hadn’t.

There is nothing more satisfying than having a swarm of enemies approach your position, and then taking them all out with one quick shot.  Such a feat is capable with a compatible grenade launcher and our new ICS 40mm airsoft grenade shells, which come in either a 6-pack or a 2-pack.

A new line of futuristic facemasks are coming your way, and they are such a huge step up from the masks of the past.  When I’ve played paintball and airsoft, the one thing I never liked was how foggy and hot it gets inside the mask.  By utilizing a mesh system, you get full ventilation with the same amount of protection you expect and need from an airsoft mask.  Best of all, these are on the same price level as regular masks, so you will be able to afford them without a problem.

To check out an example of this mask, visit the page for the OD Green product in particular.  There are several colors and styles of these Matrix facemasks, so make sure to look through them all to see which one is right for you.

Sniper rifles are the most powerful, long-ranged airsoft rifles in all of the industry, and our newest addition to our collection gives honor to the category as a whole.  The TSD G96 Gas-Powered Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle is on another level entirely, with insane features like a metal flutted tapper barrel compensator, side folding stock, and a ridiculous 480FPS top speed, with an average of around 450FPS.

Today’s review is a simple yet powerful new addition to our stock, the CYMA Metal Gearbox Electric Rifle.  CYMA is known for one of the best electric pistols of all time, but now it is expanding into others things, like airsoft rifles.  I’m positive you will be surprised at just how much this product is capable of, and how great its worth is when taking into account all the factors.

I said that I would be continuing review of some new awesome products, and I am keeping my promise.  There’s not much to say about the Snow Wolf Metal Gear Box AEG other than that it is yet another super-sleek product we’ve added to our inventory.  At only $190, it is very affordable, and for the value you are getting this could reasonably be priced higher and still be fair.

As is suggested by the name, the Snow Wolf contains a metal gear box for enhanced internal durability, reliability, and raw power.  This is the perfect gun to use in a winter game when you are trying to have a friendly match with some of your friends.  Admittedly this is not the right product to use if you are going to be playing in a professional game, but it is a mid-level AEG that will get the job done on more than one occasion.  Make sure to check it out and see if it’s right for you!
