Sorry for not posting any videos for almost a week but the kids are back to school and I was also away in Whistler on a short family get away for the first half of the week. So I thought I would put together a quick Update video to show off some new products added to the Canada Replica Airguns Store and also an upcoming product review of a Crosman Pellet Revolver.
In this video Update I show you around two KWC Airsoft pistols, the Sig Pro SP2022, and the Taurus PT 24 (24/7), both of which I just added to the Canada Replica Airguns Store. I also show you a very nice alternative to the Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 X-Five - the KWC Equivalent which almost exactly the same but with an adjustable rear sight, flared magwell and an unlicensed slide.
One air pistol I get asked to review over and over again is the Crosman 357 .177 caliber pellet revolver and so I contacted Crosman and they where kind enough to send me one for review, so keep checking back for that one, it will be coming up soon.
Oh-yh, one more thing. I briefly mention an upcoming contest/giveaway that will coincide with my 10,000,000 YouTube Channel Video View that should be happening in the next couple of week!
My first Airgun Silent Auction! I came into some used Airguns as part of an "Airgun - Blank Gun" package and since I already had these models I did not need them for my personal collection so I'm putting them up as a Three Airgun Silent Auction package.
These three Airguns are all made by Umarex and use 12 gram CO2 cartridges, the MP5K PDW shoots 4.5mm steel BB's and has blowback operation. The Beretta Elite II loads 4.5mm steel BB's into it's all metal drop out magazine and is know for it's very good combination of high FPS and accuracy. The CPSport uses a rotary 8 round magazine that hold 8 lead pellets, it has a full size drop out magazine that holds the CO2 making it very realistic and also easy to load CO2.
In order to won these fine Umarex Preowned Airguns, you will need to send in your highest bid to mike@replicaairguns.com before August 27th midnight. At the conclusion of this Silent Auction I will notify the winner. This Airgun Silent Auction is open to both my Canada and US customers, Canadian Customers will pay an additional $17.99 for Shipping/Handling plus their local provincial sales Tax. US Customers will pay $29.99 International Canada to US Shipping & Handling but will not pay any sales tax.
Of course you can also buy these guns new in my Canada & US Replica Airguns Stores

Last update for the day, I am happy to announce that I have added two Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifles from WE to the Canada Replica Airguns Store. They are both fantastic guns that are the spitting image of their real steel counterparts and both have awesome blowback action and feel. Both rifles shoot in semi and full auto which is exhilarating!
I have had a few Umarex Magazines but not as many as I would like to, now you can get some more popular Umarex Magazines for the following Umarex airguns:
CP99 Compact
PPK/S
CP88 - 8 Shot Rotary
CP99 - 8 Shot Rotary
CPSport - 8 Shot Rotary
Beretta M 92FS - 8 Shot Rotary
Colt 1911 A1 - 8 Shot Rotary
H&K P30 - 8 Shot Rotary
PPQ - 8 Shot Rotary
S&W M&P 45 - 8 Shot Rotary
Walther Lever Action Rifle - 8 Shot Rotary
You can get these Umarex Magazines in the Canada Store > Accessories > Air Guns > Magazines Section. Or click here!
It's about time! I have been holding out for some Zinc coated BB's as they are my ammo of choice, I feel they keep your gun a lot cleaner as the copper coated BB's can tend to leave a dusty rust colored residue behind.
You can get the Daisy Zinc Coated BB's in either 4000 or 6000 count bottles located in the Canada Store > Accessories > Air Guns > Ammo Section. Or click here!
I am super happy to announce a bunch of new Canada Store Products coming very soon. I have sourced out some Blowback Airsoft pistols and also a couple of GBB We Airsoft Rifles. (KJWorks: Elite 1A, KP-07, KP-02) (KWC: DE .50, SW40F) (RAM P99) (WE: G39C, M4 CQBR).
I am also adding some airgun pistols that I have not been able to find a supplier for here in Canada up until now, and I will also be adding them to the Canada Store shortly. (Umarex: Browning Buck Mark URX, XBG, Beretta 90two).
And of course the addition of some new accessories that I have been wanting to have listed in the Canada Store for some time now. (Daisy Zinc Coated BB's, Umarex CP99 - PPK - Rotary Magazines, Body Guard Mace Spray, Schrade Hand Cuffs)
So if your interested in any of these items then keep checking back, I will be adding them to the Canada Store as quick as I can - time permitting!
The video is just a quick preview but you get to see the guns up nice and close and at the end I also show off my 9mm bullet Casing Ear Bud Headphones and talk a bit about what I like about them.
Without further ado here is My YouTube video featuring the Thompson M1928 Submachine Gun, ICS SIG SG-551 SWAT and 9mm Bullet Digital Stereo Earbuds:

This gun has a polished full metal body that recreates the awesome look and feel of a real Tommy gun. The gun features a metal gear box & steel bushings, a high-capacity 450 rd drum magazine and a shot velocity of 390-450 fps (using .20g BBs).

This rifle also Includes: 8.4 V 2000 mAh Ni-CD battery, 300 mah charger (6.5 hrs charge time), cleaning rod & manual.
We just got in a new Field ready Airsoft AEG rifle, the Cybergun ISC SG-551 SWAT version. Get in on our introductory sale price!
The Cybergun ICS SIG SG-551 SWAT offers hardcore performance in a lightweight and compact package. Manufactured in Taiwan under licensed from Cybergun this rifle features full SIG trademarks engraved into its receiver.
With a stamped aluminum upper receiver and cast lower, the SG-551 weighs over a pound less than a KWA M4 while retaining the same strength and rigidity. Complete with a fiber composite handguard and pistol grip you can feel the quality of this rifle as soon as you pick it up. Its side folding skeleton stock locks firmly into open and closed positions making this rifle highly versatile in both indoor and outdoor scenarios. It features a centrally located magazine release and ambidextrous selector levers allowing for left or right handed use. One cool thing about these ICS SIG series rifle is the functioning bolt catch. Pull the bolt back all of the way and it will lock open allowing you to easily adjust the rifle hop-up without needing a third hand to keep the bolt back. Once you are done just flip the bolt release and the bolt flies forward with a nice metallic ring. Other features include a folding trigger guard for use with thick gloves, adjustable front sight complete with hood and changeable long/close range sight post, rotary rear sight with four adjustable apertures as well as windage and elevation adjustments.
Its battery is housed in the handguard which has enough room to hold an 8.4v or 9.6v AK Stick Type battery.
I have been hinting about an even bigger Canada sale on the King Arms Colt M4A1 Metal AEG Airsoft Rifle and here it is - now $100 OFF the regular price (Canada Store Only) so don't wait as I'm not sure how long this sale will last...
Some more updates for you, I received some more NcSTAR Accessories for my Canada Replica Airguns Store, some Red Dots, Scopes, Lasers, Tactical Lights, Rails, Bipods and some Vests, Slings and Holsters. I will be updating the Canada Store shortly with these very well priced items shortly so check back soon!
I also have a couple more blank guns that I will be conducting a Silent Auction on shortly: An EKOL Lady in Satin and an EKOL Special 99 in "White", which is more like a soft textured Nickel.
Lastly I also just picked up my first paintball pistol a RAM X50 and it is one I have been after for a while since I am a big Sig fan. It' basically an unlicensed Sig Sauer 226 that uses CO2 and chambers .43 caliber paintball and/or rubber balls. It is blowback and has a drop out 9 round metal magazine.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ASG AW .308 Sniper Rifle is very nice, there is very little play, once the trigger safety is flush the release is almost instant and the pull is very light but not so light that you would accidentally shoot it.
Accuracy: Being an Airsoft Rifle and a Sniper rifle in one made me wonder if you could actually get a tight grouping at longer distances? I'm sure hitting a human target at 60 feet shouldn't be too hard but what about a pop can consistently? With a bit of fine tuning I was able to get a 2 inch grouping at 60 feet out using a rested position. And with the Hop-up dialed in, my aim point was the same at 30 feet as it was at 60 feet as a result of the backspin keeping the trajectory even all the way out.
Build Quality:The ASG AW .308 is not over the top price wise so I was not expecting it to be built like a Sherman tank. It is however solid enough but also light enough to use in the field without having to lug around too much extra weight. Most of the parts that you want to be metal are metal including the barrel, bolt & receiver, trigger, magazine, strap rings and rial system. The stock is of course plastic with some added rubber and seems to be hollow in parts which I am assuming is what keeps this rifle on the lean side.
Realism: Without actually having handled a real AW .308 Accuracy International England Sniper Rifle, it's hard to say how spot on it is but it does look very similar to the photos I found online with the exception of the magazine being further forward on the stock. It is a nice touch that the actual Accuracy International England licensing is also on the ASG AW .308.
Extremely fun to shoot (Even though it's not a semi or full auto gun).
No CO2 or batteries required, ready when you are.
Excellent accuracy at most ranges.
Very nice trigger.
Good power.
Good use of metal parts.
Will not break the bank.
Cons:
Does not come with a sighting system so you need to buy something to shoot it.
Light Airsoft BB's will not give you good results, use high end heavy Airsoft BB's for best results.
Stock looks adjustable but is not, was not a problem, everything felt good!
Some things are not explained in the manual?
Comments:
I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing this Airsoft rifle, you would think that a full auto gun would be so much more fun to shoot and don't get me wrong they are fun to shoot, but there is something to be said about setting up a target well down range, getting into position to take the shot and slowly squeezing off one well placed round! And of course hitting the target. I really like the fact that all you need is a bunch of Airsoft BB's and you're ready to go, no CO2, no dead batteries to deal with. Every time a do another Airsoft review I am impressed with how well these guns shoot and how accurate they are! The ASG AW .308 took this to an even higher level and also showed me that an Airsoft BB can pack some real punch to it. All in all it was a good day and I have a feeling when I get the urge to fire off some well placed rounds just for fun, this rifle is going to get picked more often than not.
I just received some of my ASG Airsoft guns in my BC location and wanted to make an update video for you so you can see them up close and perhaps see how they stack up against their Airgun counterparts. Keep in mind many of my ASG guns are only available in the Canada Replica Airguns Store, we do have some ASG Airsoft guns for my US based customers but this time here in Canada I have more to offer my Canadian folks!
I am also super impressed with the high quality of the LMT Defender M4 Carbines, they are a serious bit of gear and have some very good heft to them, even more so than my full metal King Arms M4A1 I already sell and have done a full review of, not to take anything away from the Kings Arms product as it is very good at its price point.
I also received my first sniper rifle and have played around with it a bit to see what it is capable of. I added a bipod to the front and a 3x9 power scope as the ASG AW .308 comes pretty bare bones but ready for all you can throw at it. I can say it likes heavier Airsoft BB's, as the .20 gram ones I started with seemed to fly off in all directions due to the high velocity, even stepping up to a .25 gram BB tightened my group up significantly at 30 feet. I have heard this rifle really prefers heavy Airsoft BB's so I plan do do my review based on that information.
Enjoy my Vimeo Video Update focusing on the new ASG Airsoft lineup.
The STI Duty One 1911 Non-Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a full size replica of the actual STI Duty one 1911 pistol which is a modernized and upgraded version of the original classic Colt 1911. You will find features like; an integrated weaver rail for lasers and tactical lights, high rise beavertail grips, a unique serial number on each air pistol and STI licensed markings. (BUY NOW)
The ASG AW .308 very powerful spring operated Airsoft Sniper Rifle and has licensed Accuracy International AW .308 markings. Out of the box it shoots close to 2 joule and weights almost 7 pounds with its solid metal construction. The Sportline AW .308 has adjustable Hop-Up for accuracy and top rail for mounting a scope. (BUY NOW)
The ASG LMT Defender R.I.S. is a classic carbine with a few modifications. The normal front guard has been replaced with a full rail interface system (R.I.S.), that gives you plenty of opportunities to mount accessories. As the normal battery space is used by the R.I.S. the wiring to the battery goes back to the stock. The stock is a special sopmod stock with two compartments to house the battery. The functionality is similar to the other LMT ProLine models – Adjustable hop up, 1.5 joule power and semi & full auto. (BUY NOW)
The Proline (PL) range of products, are high-end products, targeted at regular players, players who want to have better than average Airsoft gun and Milsim/teamplayers. The Proline models can be modified and upgraded.
Two well known firearms and accessory manufactures have joined forces to create this beauty of a Proline Airsoft AEG. The full metal Defender4 Carbine licensed by LMT upgraded with the S.I.R. rail system licensed by A.R.M.S.. A Selective Integrated Rail system (S.I.R.) offers a wide variety of options to mount tactical accessories. Quick and handy flip-up iron sights are mounted on the S.I.R. Strong and well built with what is probably one of the best out-of-the-box gearboxes, heavy reinforced with 8 and 9 mm bearings, steel gears, and ball-bearing spring-guide as well as an upgraded cylinder set. It can handle Li-Po batteries and shoots 1.5 joule (120m/s/394 fps) in semi- and full-auto mode with Easily adjustable Hop-Up. (BUY NOW)
The Proline (PL) range of products, are high-end products, targeted at regular players, players who want to have better than average Airsoft gun and Milsim/teamplayers. The Proline models can be modified and upgraded.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman M4-177 is medium length and fairly light. The trigger mainly releases the bolt so no pre-cocking is required. It takes a bit to get used to where the release point since there are no real warning indicators. The trigger is plastic but seems to work just fine as there is no real load on the trigger when shooting.
Accuracy: I found the Crosman M4-177 Air Rifle to be a very good shooter, getting about a 3/4 inch grouping from 30 feet out in a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back). I also put 3 rounds through my Chrony Chronograph and the M4-177 averaged about 410 fps with the 10 pump maximum which is about what I would expect from the Canadian detuned version, keep in mind the US non-detuned version shoots up in the 600 fps range so it would have been nice if the Canadian version got closer to our legal non-registered limit of 500 fps.
Build Quality:The Crosman M4-177 Multi-pump Air Rifle is mostly plastic which some of my viewers will not like, but for a sub $100 Replica Air Rifle it hits the mark in terms of affordability and if it was an all metal airgun you would more than likely expect to double the price tag - if not more! Even though plastic is used throughout the Air Rifle, there are some internal metal parts where they need to be, the fit and finish is very good and I do not get the feeling that the Crosman M4-177 is cheaply made in any way.
Realism: The Crosman M4-177 is a respectable M4/AR replica. It is not exact in terms of true dimensions as the forward stock is a bit long to accommodate the pumping mechanism, (kind of long like the original AR but without the tapering). Crosman did a good job to add all the parts that you would find on a real M4/AR even if they are simply for show and are molded into the plastic. I particularly like the removable iron sights and full rail for mounting a scope or red dot sight. I am also really glad to see a Replica Assault rifle on the market as so few of them are available in pellet or steel BB shooters.
One of the few replica Air Rifles on the market (MP5K PDW & Mini UZI).
Very well priced.
Excellent accuracy!
Comes with detachable and adjustable iron sights.
Fully adjustable stock.
Picatinny rail on top for just about any type of sight system.
Option of shooting pellets or BB's.
Cons:
Mostly plastic build.
Lower rails you just can not use as the pumping action gets in the way?
FPS is well below the Canada non PAL limit of 500 fps so maybe a bit too detuned?
Comments:
The Crosman M4-177 Multi-Pump Pellet/BB Air Rifle is in my opinion a must have air rifle, simply because... why not? How many replica pellet and steel BB shooting air rifles are there out there and for under $100 to boot? What the M4-177 lacks in metal parts, it makes up in accuracy and fun factor. And the M4-177 really is not a bad replica in terms of realism as Crosman made it a point to copy the real steel M4/AR fairly closely. I know for a fact from the emails I received and YouTube comments that many people have been looking for an M4/AR styled Air Rifle and Crosman has now delivered one to us so what are you waiting for ;)
It's always good to start the week off with an update video so everyone knows what's happening short-term and long-term...
I recently acquired a couple new items that I will be reviewing in the near future (along with several other reviews that I will be trying to get to ASAP!) First off is the Crosman M4-177 which is basically a multi-pump pellet and BB shooting replica of an AR or M4 styled carbine used by the US military. The Crosman M4-177 is mostly plastic on the outside but on first inspection seems to be built fairly well. It has removable metal sights and the magazine is also detachable but is not used as a magazine but rather a compartment for storage. The unit I have is the Canadian detuned version which shoots .177 caliber lead pellets and 4.5mm steel BB's at under 500 fps.
I also received my first old west blank shooting revolver (M1873), I have wanted one of these for a while and finally got my hands on one :) Unfortunately this one has a plugged barrel so it vents out of the cylinder area which may get a bit messy. I may see about making this one a front venting gun if possible and of course as long as it's within the law as I plan to make sure the cylinder stays semi plugged so no actual rounds could ever be shot out of it. The Old West M1873 Blank Revolver holds six .380 crimped blanks and is an all metal and wood construction. This should be a fun review!
I also touch upon a few other guns on the list of items I need to review and by the way in an attempt to get caught up I will be doing my Table Top and Shooting reviews combined.
Here are some of the guns that I will be reviewing over the next while...
Gamo P-25 & PT-85 .177 Caliber Blowback Pellet pistols (This one will get done this week!)
I have been asked many times to make some videos on some of the Accessories that I have in the Replica Airguns Store and that I use in some of my reviews. So I made this overview video of several my NcSTAR Accessories and also my BSA Red Dot that I sell a lot of.
Here are the Accessories that I cover in this YouTube Video Overview.
I added another NcSTAR accessory to the Canada Replica Airguns Store, this one is a laser only but it's a green laser which creates an ultra bright beam superior in brightness to just the standard red lasers.
NcSTAR Compact Ultra Bright Green Laser with Switch
The Compact Green laser is an ultra bright and powerful green laser in a much smaller package than was available previously.
The Weaver/Picatinny style mount will fit virtually any Weaver and Picatinny rails, making it possible to fit onto a wide variety of firearms.
With precise windage and elevation adjustments, you will have a: quick, powerful, and precise laser aiming devise.
With the supplied remote pressure switch, it gives you the flexibility to mount the laser anywhere on your firearm and be able to activate the laser when you want to.
The laser is manufactured from aircraft quality anodized aluminum.
We just added this new Tactical Light/Laser combo to our Canadian Replica Airguns store. If you're looking for a super high quality Weaver/Picatinny Style mount compact Tactical light and Laser combo, then the NcSTAR Tactical Flashlight/Laser Combo is a perfect choice. Yes this one is a bit more spendy but you get what you pay for, well that's what people tell me so I just pass the knowledge on to you ;)
NcSTAR Tactical Flashlight/Laser Combo
3 watt Flashlight puts out a White-Hot 120 Lumens
Right below the flashlight is an integrated, Fully adjustable Red Laser.
Small toggle switch in the rear allows you to illuminate the Flashlight and Laser separately, or Both at the same time
A Quick Release Weaver/Picatinny Style Mounting System
Constructed of Hard Anodized Aluminum and Reinforced Nylon, this unit is sure to handle even the toughest abuse!
