We’ve got yet another box on the table today for our August Mystery Unboxing. It took a while to arrive, but it was absolutely worth the wait. We’re diving into four highly anticipated products across the BB, Pellet, and Airsoft categories.
Here is a quick first look at what’s hitting the review table soon!
Marksman Model 1018 .177 Caliber Air Pistol
First out of the box is the Marksman 1018. This is a very budget-friendly (around $50), 1911-inspired spring-actuated pistol. It features fiber-optic sights on the front and back, making it an excellent, quiet option for basement or backyard plinking. While it can technically shoot darts and bolts, we'll be sticking to BBs and pellets for our tests.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Single-stroke spring piston
Caliber: .177 Caliber (BBs and Pellets)
Capacity: 18-shot internal BB reservoir
Velocity: Up to 200 FPS
Weight & Length: 1 lb / 9.0 inches
Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS CO2 Blowback BB Pistol
Next up is a beauty from Umarex, the Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS. If you love ultra-realistic replicas, this is it. It features a heavy full-metal slide spring, a recessed barrel, and classic white dot sights. The "MOS" means it comes ready with all the mounting plates you need to attach your favorite red dot sights. It runs on a full-size, drop-out 17-round metal magazine and utilizes a full blowback system for ultra realistic blowback operation.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Semi-auto full blowback, single CO2 cartridge
Caliber: 4.5mm (.177) steel BBs
Capacity: 17-round drop-out metal magazine

A&K M1873R M-LOK Lever Action Airsoft Gas Rifle
I'm incredibly excited to finally do a proper field test on this one. This is a replacement for a previous model that had a leaky loading valve. This gas-operated, "Mares Leg" style lever-action rifle is heavily modernized. It features a gorgeous real wood stock, an enlarged lever loop, a Picatinny top rail, an M-LOK handguard for accessories, and a mock suppressor on the front.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Gas Non-Blowback Lever Action (Green Gas)
Caliber: 6mm Airsoft BBs
Capacity: 25-round internal magazine
Velocity: 360 - 390 FPS (with 0.20g BBs)
Weight & Length: 3.7 lbs / 24.5 inches
Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW Edge AEG Airsoft Rifle
Finally, we have an absolute powerhouse in a tiny package: the Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW. This is a super-compact AR-style AEG with a polymer-metal build and a telescopic stock. Specna Arms goes above and beyond with the box contents on this one. Along with the rifle, you get two S-MAG mid-cap magazines, an additional M90 drop-in spring to easily lower your FPS for indoor fields, a Deans adapter, and a vertical foregrip.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Electric (AEG) with Pre-installed MOSFET
