I am super happy to let everyone know that Canada Post is back to work and it's business as usual. This mainly effected our US cusomters as we ship to the US using Canada Post. If you have an order that got stuck in the system during the Canada Post strike, your should be back on its way to you very soon!
The Webley Alecto (AKA: Zoraki HP-01) may not fit in exactly as a "Replica" Airgun, although it does resemble a bloated Dessert Eagle! But it is an Airgun worthy of spending some time reviewing an this is now my third Vimeo Video review for the Webley Alecto. My first Video Review was a Table Top Review where I covered most of the Webley's basic operation. My second Vimeo Video was a Chronograph Test to see what my Webley Alecto could do performance wise for FPS.

I really wanted to do a video of this gun just shooting because that's what it does best, put lead down range very accurately! So I setup three cameras to capture it all from just about every angle I could think of and I set up 30 feet away from my target and shot 5 rounds in a rested position using a Red Dot Scope. The results where not surprising - pretty close to a 1/2 inch grouping!
If you're looking for a compact, hard hitting, accurate target or small pest control Air gun then look no further, the Webley Alecto has the goods!

I can't help but share some of the photos my happy viewers and customers send me and it seem like the hot item right now is the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 CO2 BB Pistol yet again.
These latest photos are brought to you by Mil3 who added rubber grips and an accessory rail to his Tanfoglio Witness 1911. He said the rubber grips only needed some slight carving out on the back side to make them fit.
I've had a few questions about replacing the gips on the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 BB pistol and if it is possible to use standard 1911 wood grips? The answer is yes if you don't mind spending about 15-20 minutes removing just a bit of the wood material in a few spots on the 1911 Wood Grips
Here are the instruction thanks to one of my Customers and viewers Michel:
First of all the holes are in the right place thank god for that! A dremel is the ideal tool youll need, and the whole mod.
After on the other side of the mag release button make sure there is enough clearance for when you depress the button.
Here are a few pictures of the mod. Have fun:
We have another very interesting Pre-sale item out of Italy again, but this time from Kimar. A while back in 2000-2001, Kimar and Crosman teamed up to make a really nice Beretta 92FS Styled Replica Airgun called the CK92. It basically used a bunch of Crosman internal parts but the bulk of the gun was manufactured in the Kimar (Armi Chiappa) factory.
This gun was not produced after 2001 and so has only been available as a used gun to airgun collectors, that is until now. Somehow a limited amount of these guns where rediscovered (perhaps a time machine was involved?) and we have gotten our hands on some arriving in mid July. Since these CK92's have been sitting around for a while they have all been re-tested and inspected and are ready for sale.
This is an amazing opportunity for any Airgun collector looking to get a brand new Crosman - Kimar CK92. And we even have a few arriving with the Chrome finish - even more rare!
But don't let me stop you if you're not an avid airgun collector, we are pricing these all metal pellet shooting Beretta 92FS replicas to sell fast at our pre-sale pricing of only $119 and $129 respectively. Keep in mind this price will go up $20 once they arrive in our warehouse, if we have any left that is...
Here are some specifications to keep you drooling till they come in:
One of my customers "Pierre" who lives close to our warehouse already received his Tanfoglio Witness 1911, and he kindly took some photos and sent me some quick observations.
As you can see here, the magazine is a full size drop out magazine that holds the CO2 and 4.5mm Steel BB's.
Pierre described the color as being a "Dark Fume Grey" and he also mentioned that the Grip safety (sometimes referred to as the Back-strap safety) is also functional.
You can see in this photo that the slide can lock fully back on the Tanfoglio Witness 1911.
You can see in this photo, the cut out slide and KWC markings. Many Cybergun products are rebrands of the KWC line.
Well if you haven't picked yourself up one yet and your a 1911 fan, (who isn't?) don't miss out on this one!
Another filed test video in the series. This one is of the Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 4.5mm BB pistol, I show you both my regular unmodified all black PPK/S and shoot it through my Chrony Chronograph with an averaged reading of 282 FPS, not bad considering the manufacturers claim is 295.
I also shoot 8 rounds with my stock Umarex PPK/S at a target to see what kind of accuracy I get, and just for fun I shoot a 15 round magazine into the same target with my modified fully-auto sliver slided PPK/S.
To finish things up, I slowdown the action just a bit using my high speed Casio camera to capture the blowback action of both my stock and modified Umarex Walther PPK's.
Enjoy my YouTube Video of my Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 BB pistols getting Chronographed, shooting at a target and slowed down a bit with my High Speed Camera.
I have obviously been exploring the YouTube side of the whole social networking thing and if anything, my YouTube Channel really started things off for me. I had one Full Auto PPK Video I made a several years ago and it slowly accumulated a ton of views so I thought, why not make some more videos and see how they do... jump ahead a little less then a year later and here we are!
I guess you could say that YouTube is what drives Replica Airguns, without it I don't think there would be a Replica Airguns Website? Guns & Videos are an obvious fit and so it all makes sense to me but what about Facebook and Twitter? I have been putting them off for a while as I just didn't feel I needed the distraction but I have recently caved into the social pressures and started up Facebook and Twitter accounts. So please "like" me "Follow" me, and "Subscribe" me, if you don't I will be a social outcast...
I wanted to let you know we have a couple new Zoraki 914 color finishes to choose from, Shiny Chrome and Titanium. We have limited quantities so get them while we still have them. And that goes for all of our Zoraki line as I can not ensure we will be carrying it for much longer - it has nothing to do with quality as the Zoraki line of blank guns is one of the best! SORRY - ALL GONE!
I wanted to reassure everyone that business is "as per usual" even with the impending possible Canada Post strike! For the most part we use DHL to ship our products, so this potential Canada Post strike will not effect those orders in any way.
For the few orders that we ship with Canada Post, we can always use DHL. It might cost me a bit more, or in some cases you may have to go and pick your order up from the DHL depot, but we will get you your guns dammit - and that's a promise!!
I dropped into my local Wholesale Sports Outdoor Outfitters today just to have a look around and walked out with a Champion .22 Caliber Bullet Trap. I figured the time had come to stop using cardboard boxes as my backstops, sure I have lots of backyard and so safety is not an issue but I think this new Champion Bullet Trap will work well for me!
One really nice feature about the Champion Bullet Trap is that it's rated to shoot right up to .22 caliber rimfire bullets (no magnums), so I can use my Henry .22 rimfire Lever action rifle with it too.
I am hoping that it will trap BB's OK, if they tend to get a little lively in it I may have to through a little cardboard in behind my target paper.
The only trouble I encountered was getting it home as I brought my Kawasaki KLX250SF motorcycle with me on this trip but fortunately I had installed a rack on the back that the Champion Bullet Trap fit nicely on to.
As promised, here is my Vimeo video Chronograph test along with some more shots on target for an idea on the accuracy for the Cybergun GSG 92 Beretta 92FS copy.
My Chronograph results where very good with an average 8 shot FPS result of 314, right in line with the manufacturers specifications! I also took some extra time to do some more target testing and shot the GSG 92 BB shooter at a target from 20 feet out in a free standing position and I didn't get the best grouping from it today but hey, it's got full auto too so how important is accuracy?
Lastly a pulled out my Casio high-speed camera and took some video of the blowback action of the Cybergun GSG 92FS Beretta replica at 210 frames per second.
Enjoy my Vimeo Video of the Cybergun GSG 92 CO2 BB gun getting Chronographed, shooting at a target and slowed down a bit.
Yet another milestone, my YouTube Channel just hit 2000 subscribers!! Next goal is 2,000,000 video views. Guess I have to start thinking about another contest...
Everyone has been asking for a true Colt 1911 A1 styled blowback Air gun with a true Colt 1911 trigger system. Well I guess the folks over at Cybergun where listening because they just released their Tanfoglio Witness 1911 A1 Blowback CO2 BB Pistol and it looks awesome!
We are expecting them in stock in just over a weeks time so make sure to get your order in now at our introductory pricing.
Here are some specifications to keep you going until we get them in stock and I get the chance to review this fine 1911 A1 Colt replica.
One thing that can really add functionality but also give your gun that customized look is a Fore-grip and or a Bipod. I've added two Fore-grips for you to choose from and a really nice barrel mounted quick release Bipod.
NcSTAR - Tactical Fore-grip (with rail)
C$21.00
Â
NcSTAR - AR-15 Heavy Duty Fore-grip
C$45.00
Â
NcSTAR - Quick Release Uni-Bipod

You can always have some more holsters, everyones needs are different! Some like it discrete and some like to lay it all out for everyone to see. Now to go with our already existing Beretta 92FS Leather Belt Holster, Nylon Laser Holster and Nylon Shoulder Holster we have two more for you to choose from.
I did have one pistol laser in the Replica Airguns Store but I really wanted to add some more variety, especially when it came to Tactical Lights since I didn't have any of these yet. I picked out a nice selection of lights and lasers from NcSTAR that should fill most requirements for your rifle or pistol.
I am really focused on adding more products all the time to the Replica Airguns Store and one product that was completely missing was rifle scopes.
I just listed 4 new scopes from NcSTAR:
NcSTAR - 6 X 32 Scope with Rings
C$49.00
Â
NcSTAR - 6 X 42 Scope with High Rings
C$59.00
Â
NcSTAR - 3 X 9 X 40 Scope with High Rings
C$49.00
Â
NcSTAR - 3 X 9 X 40 Illuminated Scope with High Rings
C$85.00

I already have a customized full auto Drozd Blackbird who can pass up another Dorzd when the price is right! I will be making a double Drozd video down the road :)
My new Classic Drozd came with the Full Auto mod chip, the JimC hand made barrel, a 68ci Nitro Duck 4500 PSI carbon fiber tank and bulk air hose.
I also got the Red Dot scope with my new purchase but used one of my rial risers that fit perfectly giving my new Drozd an AR look to it.
