We are halfway through September, and another unannounced delivery just showed up at the door. This box was surprisingly compact but incredibly dense, hinting at a hefty amount of possible ammunition inside. Cracking it open revealed a massive 4,000-count bottle of BBs and an updated classic from Crosman.

Gear Stock 4.5mm Copper-Coated Steel BBs

The sheer weight of this package came from a bulk 4,000-round bottle of Gear Stock 4.5mm steel BBs. These specific rounds feature a copper coating, which looks great but comes with a few historical caveats.

• Copper vs. Zinc: In my experience, copper-coated BBs can tarnish over time. Unlike zinc, which stays relatively clean, older copper coatings can oxidize and leave a dark, powdery residue on your hands and inside your airgun's barrel.

• Quality Check: If you burn through your ammo quickly, the tarnishing won't be an issue. We will have to see if modern manufacturing has improved the coating durability on this Gear Stock batch, but I typically lean toward zinc-coated BBs for long-term storage and cleaner shooting.

The Crosman 2240 XL .22 Caliber CO2 Pellet Pistol

The main event in this box is the Crosman 2240 XL. The 2240 platform has been a staple in the airgun community for decades, and the XL version finally addresses the most common pain points shooters had with the base model out of the box.

• Core Specs: The 2240 XL is a CO2-powered, bolt-action, single-shot pistol chambered in .22 caliber. It weighs in at 1.8 pounds, features a rifled steel barrel, and utilizes a standard 12-gram CO2 cartridge.

• The Metal Breech Upgrade: The standard 2240 and its multi-pump cousin, the 1322, utilize a plastic breech. Mounting an optic on those older models requires clamp-on barrel adapter rings, which can easily twist out of alignment. The 2240 XL ships with an upgraded all-metal breech featuring a milled 11mm dovetail rail, allowing for a rock-solid red dot or scope mount straight from the factory.

• Threaded Muzzle: The front of the barrel has a threaded muzzle cap. You can unscrew the tip to attach 1/2" UNF aftermarket compensators or moderators, adding another layer of customization.

Customization and Practical Application

Because the 2240 XL features a dovetail rail instead of iron sights, it is built specifically for optics. This plays perfectly into the massive aftermarket support for Crosman’s 22xx and 13xx platforms.

I own a heavily modified "backpacker" setup on one of my personal Crosman .22s, featuring a skeletonized rear shoulder stock and a magnified scope. At sub-500 FPS, a .22 caliber pellet is highly effective for close-range pest control. When dealing with nuisance animals like crows attacking songbirds, an ultra-high-velocity pellet will often pass straight through the target, wasting its kinetic energy. A heavier .22 pellet moving at moderate speeds dumps its full energy upon impact, providing a much more immediate and humane dispatch.

The full tabletop and field test shooting videos for the Crosman 2240 XL are coming up next. Make sure you are subscribed on Rumble, Vimeo, X, Threads, or TikTok to catch the full performance breakdown when it goes live.

Welcome back for another indoor field test shooting review! Today I am testing out the Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW Edge AEG Airsoft Rifle. I have already completed the dedicated Table Top Review where I covered specifications, build details, features, and an up-close look at the gun, so definitely check that out if you want the full hardware overview. For this video and field test, however, our focus is strictly on performance: putting it through the chronograph to find out its real-world velocity, running a 10-shot semi-auto accuracy test on paper, and finishing off with a full-auto mag dump downrange.

Chronograph & Velocity Performance

For our velocity baseline, I tested the Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW using 0.25g Airsoft BBs. While you can achieve higher numbers using lighter 0.20g BBs, 0.25g BBs generally provide a better balance of velocity, stability, and downrange consistency, making them ideal for both chronograph testing and target grouping.

Here is how the 5-shot string performed through the chronograph:

• Shot 1: 341 FPS

• Shot 2: 331 FPS

• Shot 3: 333 FPS

• Shot 4: 335 FPS

• Shot 5: 330 FPS

The rifle settled comfortably in the 330 to 341 FPS range (averaging 334 FPS). For an ultra-compact PDW running 0.25g BBs, that is right where you want it to be for close-quarters engagement and indoor skirmishing.

Downrange Accuracy & Target Testing

Moving over to the accuracy test, I placed a fresh paper target downrange. During the initial sight-in shots of the Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW Edge AEG Airsoft Rifle, the rifle was hitting slightly low, so I adjusted my hold to aim at the top outer ring of the target to bring the grouping closer to the center bullseye.

• Semi-Auto Target Test (10 Rounds): Firing 10 carefully paced rounds in semi-auto yielded an impressive grouping right around 1.25 inches (just slightly over an inch). Once compensating with the top-ring hold, the rounds grouped tightly together.

• Full-Auto Mag Dump: Switching the selector switch over to full-auto, I dumped the remainder of the magazine downrange. The spread naturally opened up a bit under rapid fire to roughly 3 inches, which is completely expected in full-auto and it tore up the paper until the target backing actually gave way and fell off the backstop!

Handling Notes & Optics Fitment

A couple of notable observations from running this compact setup:

• Battery & Buffer Tube Setup: For this test, I had a larger battery that wouldn't slip cleanly into the compact buffer tube compartment, so I removed the buffer tube to fit the pack. While a bit improvised, having the rear stock available with the rail setup allowed for a stable cheek rest and solid shooting consistency.

• Stock Length & Sight Picture: Because this is an ultra-compact PDW, the overall length of pull is quite short. The rear flip-up peep sight sits very close to your eye, which can make the rear aperture appear large and blurry when focusing forward.

• Optics Recommendation: While the included flip-up iron sights are fully adjustable and get the job done, this platform would truly shine with a compact red dot sight mounted slightly further forward along the top Picatinny rail. You could easily keep the flip-up sights as backup iron sights if your red dot battery gave out.

• Magazines: The rifle conveniently ships with two magazines (roughly 120 rounds each), giving you 240 rounds right out of the box ready to hit the field.

Final Thoughts

The Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW Edge AEG Airsoft Rifle is a fantastic, compact AEG rifle. It delivers great looks, solid build feel, consistent velocity suited for CQB, and tight 1.25-inch semi-auto groupings right out of the box. Aside from the shorter shoulder pull typical of PDW platforms, it performed reliably from start to finish.

Today, we are checking out the ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. This is an all-around sharp replica featuring full blowback action and a full-size drop-out magazine that holds both the CO2 cartridge and 6mm Airsoft BBs.

For this field test, we are strictly focused on seeing how it performs on the range. I am using fresh CO2 with .25 gram Airsoft BBs, a little heavier than standard .20g BBs, but they generally provide better consistency and flight stability downrange (keep in mind that .20g BBs are what guns are typically tested with for Canadian import velocity ratings, so you would see higher FPS with lighter ammo).

Make sure to check out my Table Top Review for the ASG CZ P-10C for detailed specifications, close-up footage, and a full walk-around.

Chronograph and Velocity Testing

To kick things off, I loaded up a fresh CO2 cartridge and fired a 5-round string through the chronograph. Right before starting, I realized I hadn't installed the rear sight plate yet, but for shooting straight through the chrony, it wasn't an issue!

Here is how the ASG CZ P-10C performed with .25g BBs:

• Shot 1: 305 FPS

• Shot 2: 303 FPS

• Shot 3: 301 FPS

• Shot 4: 298 FPS

• Shot 5: ~300 FPS

That gives us a very consistent 298 to 305 FPS range, with an average of around 301 FPS. You immediately feel the snap and kick from the blowback, it really feels responsive and cycles fast.

Accuracy Downrange at 30 Feet

Next, I set up a fresh paper target at my standard 30-foot mark. Before shooting the accuracy string, I quickly installed the included rear sight, which only takes a minute using a single screw and an Allen key.

I put a 10-round string downrange with the ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Sighting in, I aimed right underneath the bullseye so I could keep a clear sight picture on the target:

• Grouping: Out of the box, the pistol delivered an impressive grouping of roughly 2.5 inches (definitely closer to 2.5 inches than 3 inches).

• Placement: The group landed just slightly low and biased slightly to the left. Pulling a touch to the left can be common with out-of-the-box pistols or simply natural shooter tendency, but the spread itself was tight and consistent. Aiming dead-center or fine-tuning the hop-up for 30 feet easily brings those rounds right onto the bullseye.

View fullsize

Shooting Feel and Performance

Shooting the ASG CZ P-10C feels great in the hand:

• Trigger: The single-action trigger is crisp, predictable, and has a very clean break.

• Blowback Action: The slide cycling is snappy, fast, and delivers a very noticeable kick. It gives you that positive, tactile feedback you want from a quality blowback replica.

• Feed & Cycling: When chambering the very first round on a completely full magazine, the slide spring met a little extra tension from the fully packed BB follower, requiring a slight assist to close fully. However, as soon as firing began and the tension smoothed out, the pistol cycled and performed flawlessly through the entire string without a single hiccup.

Final Thoughts

Overall, I am really impressed with the ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. It looks great, shoots with rock-solid consistency right around the 300 FPS mark with .25g ammo, and produces a tight 2.5-inch grouping at 30 feet right out of the box. Between the snappy blowback recoil, crisp trigger, and reliable feeding, it makes an awesome choice whether you're looking for an authentic training sidearm or a competitive airsoft pistol.

Today, we are putting the Marksman 1018 Spring-powered BB/Pellet Pistol through its paces in the indoor shooting range. Don't get too excited, this gun isn't going to blow your socks off with crazy power, and I highly doubt we'll be seeing sniper-level accuracy. I also only test it out using standard 4.5mm steel BB’s in this Field Test.

If you're looking for the nitty-gritty details, specifications, and close-up angles, I have already done the dedicated Table Top Video Review for this gun, so be sure to check that out. For this session, we are strictly focused on performance: getting it on the Chrony and seeing how this spring-powered plinker handles when we actually put some 4.5mm BB rounds downrange.

Chronograph and Velocity Testing Starting things off with the chrony test, I wanted to see what kind of speed we could get out of this basic springer. Marksman claims it can shoot up to 200 FPS on the packaging. To test this, I loaded up the built-in BB reservoir to see if it could hit those numbers. Let's see how it performed:

• Shot 1: 111 FPS

• Shot 2: 110 FPS

• Shot 3: 107 FPS

• Shot 4: 115 FPS

• Shot 5: 108 FPS

• Shot 6: 108 FPS

• Average 110 FPS

As you can see, the numbers were very consistent, hovering right around the 110 FPS mark. While it is incredibly consistent, it falls well short of the 200 FPS claim. Because of this exceptionally low velocity, I decided to scrap my usual 30-foot target test. The gun just doesn't have the power to push BBs effectively at that distance without a massive arc, so I moved closer to the paper target at around 20 feet.

View fullsize

Accuracy Downrange at 20 Feet Next up, from 20 feet out, I took aim to see what kind of grouping the Marksman 1018 could pull off on a fresh paper target.

Shooting the Marksman 1018 Spring-powered BB/Pellet Pistol requires a bit of an adjustment. Out of the box, the fixed sights were shooting rather high and significantly to the left. I was aiming dead center at the bullseye, and the rounds were lofting up and striking far left of the center ring. Because you are dealing with completely fixed sights on a low-velocity plinker, you're going to have to rely heavily on "Kentucky windage", meaning if you want to hit your target, you'll need to aim well to the right and a bit lower to compensate. At 30 feet, those BBs would just be arcing even more dramatically, so 20 feet (or even 10 feet) is definitely the sweet spot for this pistol.

Shooting Feel and Features Despite the low velocity and accuracy quirks, the physical shooting experience has some redeeming qualities. The loading mechanism works flawlessly; it draws from the internal reservoir consistently without missing a single beat while cocking as long as it is fairly full.

Cocking the spring is incredibly easy, and the trigger actually isn't half bad for such a basic, entry-level gun. Since it's spring-powered, there is no need for CO2. This means it will work in absolutely any environment, rain or shine, and it’s incredibly cheap to shot.

View fullsize

Final Thoughts Ultimately, the Marksman 1018 Spring-powered BB/Pellet Pistol is exactly what it looks like: a real basic, inexpensive plinker. It’s not meant for long-range accuracy or high power. It's designed for casually plinking pop cans in your backyard or basement at 10 to 20 feet. For just a few bucks, you can grab a bottle of BBs and have some cheap, casual fun without ever worrying about buying or running out of CO2 cartridges. It is inexpensive to buy, inexpensive to shoot, and incredibly easy to operate.

Hey everybody, Michael here from Replica Airguns with another field test shooting video! Today, we finally got our hands on another A&K M1873R M-Lock Lever Action Airsoft Gas Rifle. The first one we received had an issue with a leaking valve that someone tried to fix with some goop, so I got a return item to demo instead. For this session, we are strictly focused on performance: seeing how this model handles when we actually put some rounds downrange. I am using .25 gram Airsoft BBs and filling it up with propane gas. We are going to put this gun through its paces, but right out of the gate, we're dealing with some quality control quirks. Also make sure to checkout my Table Top video for the A&K M1873R for details specifications and close up video.

Chronograph and Velocity Testing

Starting things off with the chrony test, I filled the gun up with propane. It's worth noting right away that preparing this gun is frustrating; you cannot fill the gun with gas while the front mock suppressor is attached. You have to take a coin, unscrew it for 30 to 60 seconds, fill the gas, and put it back on. After finally getting it loaded up, let's see how the M1373 R version performed:

• Shot 1: 340 FPS

• Shot 2: 320 FPS

• Shot 3: 335 FPS

• Shot 4: 328 FPS

• Shot 5: 337 FPS

• Shot 6: 335 FPS

View fullsize

As you can see, the numbers were fairly consistent, keeping us comfortably in the 320 to 340 FPS range with a 7 shot average of 331 FPS. It shoots right around where you want it to be for an Airsoft Rifle of this type, though you can hear the gas starting to run a bit low if you push too many rounds through it without topping it off.

Accuracy Downrange at 30 Feet

Next up, I stepped back to my standard 30-foot mark to see what kind of grouping the A&K M1873R M-Lock Lever Action Airsoft Gas Rifle could pull off on a fresh paper target. I put about 10 or 11 rounds through it for this string. Because of the way it was hitting, I intentionally aimed towards the bottom of the target ring to compensate for it shooting high the way the red dot was sighted in.

Shooting this gun requires some effort. The trigger is honestly quite heavy for what is essentially a single-action pull, so you really have to crank it. Despite the heavy trigger, the end result was a fairly decent 2.5 to 3-inch grouping. As long as you know where to aim or have your sights dialed in, it's actually not a bad shooter downrange.

Shooting Feel and Quality Control Issues

The physical shooting experience is where this A&K replica really struggles, largely due to lacking quality control. Out of the box, a small retention spring meant to keep the loading port door closed, fell out of the breech area. Because of this, it misfeeds, and the BB stays in the bottom part of the breech unless you give the lever an intentional, forceful push to load it correctly.

The other major headache is the previously mentioned mock suppressor design. Having to take a tool or coin to remove it just to fill it up with gas makes no sense for field use. They really should have included an open-front mock suppressor or an extender piece so you can reach the valve easily without a teardown process every 20+ shots or so.

View fullsize

Final Thoughts

Ultimately, the A&K M1873R M-Lock Lever Action Airsoft Gas Rifle is a very cool-looking modern lever action rifle, but I really wish it didn't have these out-of-the-box issues. Between the two models I looked at, both had problems, from leaking valves to a finicky loading door. The unnecessary 60-second hassle just to fill the gas tank holds it back from being a great plinker unless you simply do not install the mock suppressor. It definitely shoots well enough and hits good FPS numbers, but you'll have to deal with some frustrating design choices and quality control along the way.

Welcome back for another field test! Today I am taking the Daisy Woodland Trail Western Carbine 1999 out to the range to see what it can do. If you want a deep dive into the specifications, materials, and a close-up look at the hardware, make sure to watch our dedicated Table Top Review. For this video, however, I am focusing entirely on how this lever-action BB rifle performs when putting steel to paper.

Velocity and Chronograph Performance

To get a baseline for power and consistency, I ran a string of shots through the chronograph. The manufacturer claims velocities in the 300+ FPS range. Here is how the Daisy handled right out of the box:

• Shot 1: 291 FPS

• Shot 2: 286 FPS

• Shot 3: 285 FPS

• Shot 4: 284 FPS

• Shot 5: 283 FPS

The consistency on this carbine is outstanding. After a slightly higher first shot, it locked right into the high 280s and low 290s and stayed remarkably steady throughout the test string with an average fps of 286.

One quirk to watch out for during operation is the loading system. While cocking the lever, you might occasionally get a "dud" or mis-feed where a BB fails to chamber properly. If this happens, you simply need to (while pointing the barrel up) give the Daisy Woodland Trail Western Carbine 1999 a quick shake to position the ammo and rack the lever again.

View fullsize

Downrange Accuracy at 30 Feet

Moving on to the accuracy portion of the review, I set up a fresh paper target exactly 30 feet downrange.

• Target Testing: I fired 10 carefully aimed shots. The gun delivered an excellent grouping of about 1.5 inches. The cluster was perfectly centered left-to-right, meaning the windage was completely dialed in straight out of the box which is great since there are no windage adjustments to speak of. It did shoot slightly high on the elevation, but compensating for this is simply a matter of aiming just underneath the bullseye or tweaking your optics if you mounted a red dot or optical sight.

View fullsize

Handling Notes and Optics Fitment

This is an incredibly fun lever-action plinker. One of the best design choices on this specific Daisy Woodland Trail Western Carbine 1999 model is the modernized, bigger loop on the lever, which makes it much more comfortable for shooters with larger hands to cycle the action or if wearing gloves.

You will also find a major upgrade on the top of the receiver. This version features a Picatinny rail, making it extremely easy to mount optics. I actually used the built in open sights rather than installing a red dot sight during this specific accuracy test, and the iron open sights worked very well for me. If you prefer iron sights, the rear sight remains fully adjustable for elevation but not windage.

Final Thoughts

The Daisy Woodland Trail Western Carbine 1999 is a rugged, highly affordable BB gun that backs up its classic lever-action fun with rock-solid consistency and great accuracy on the range. It is incredibly cheap to shoot, making it the perfect backyard plinker for knocking over pop cans or army men. Just remember to always wear your eye protection!

First Impressions & Build Quality

The Daisy Woodland Trail Model 1999 puts a contemporary spin on the traditional lever-action look, sporting an all-weather green molded synthetic stock and forearm paired with an orange trigger and barrel band accent.

Weighing in at just 2.2 pounds with an overall length of 35.4 inches, it is exceptionally lightweight and compact, making it an ideal entry-level platform for younger shooters and beginners.

The rifle incorporates a solid amount of metal along the outer barrel and receiver casing. While it does use polymer for the stock, forearm, and cocking lever, the build feels sturdy and low-maintenance.

View fullsize

How It Works

The Woodland Trail Model 1999 utilizes the proven spring-piston lever-action mechanism:

• No CO2 or Gas Required: Every shot is cocked and powered manually via the spring-piston system.

• Large Loop Lever: Cocking is smooth and easy thanks to the oversized loop lever.

• Massive Ammo Capacity: It holds up to 650 steel BBs in a top-loading internal reservoir.

• Gravity Fed: Tilting the rifle cocks and drops a BB into the loading mechanism, visible through a small viewport near the breach so you can confirm a round is chambered before firing.

Sights & Optics

Unlike traditional bare-iron lever guns, the Daisy Model 1999 comes equipped with several optical upgrades:

• Fiber Optic Front Sight: The bright front fiber optic sight makes target acquisition quick and clear against varying backgrounds.

• Adjustable Rear Sight: Step-adjustable for elevation (fixed for windage).

• Built-in Picatinny Rail: A dedicated top rail allows for easy mounting of compact red dot sights or low-power optics without needing custom brackets or adapters.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Extremely lightweight (2.2 lbs) and compact—perfect for youth and beginners.

• Durable, all-weather synthetic stock is moisture-resistant and low maintenance.

• Built-in Picatinny rail makes adding red dots or scopes simple.

• Bright fiber optic front sight aids quick target acquisition.

• Smooth, easy-cocking lever action with a large loop handle.

• Huge 650-round gravity-fed BB reservoir means less reloading downtime.

• 350 FPS velocity is safe and well-suited for supervised backyard plinking.

• No CO2 or gas cartridges required.

• Highly affordable entry-level price point.

Cons:

• Synthetic plastic cocking lever (a metal lever would feel more robust).

• Lower velocity compared to modern CO2-powered airguns.

• Rear sight adjusts for elevation only (no windage adjustment).

• BB ammo only and smoothbore barrel limits pinpoint precision to short plinking ranges.

• Basic spring action lacks the ultra-realistic shell-ejecting mechanics of higher-end replicas.

First Look & Overview In this table top review, we are taking a look at the Marksman Spring BB / Pellet / Dart Pistol, an inexpensive and versatile option for backyard and basement plinking. This model is primarily constructed with a plastic exterior shell, housing a single-stroke spring-piston power plant. Coming in at around $50 CAD, this is not a high-end replica, but it offers a highly accessible shooting experience with the ability to handle multiple types of ammunition.

View fullsize

Specifications

• Caliber: 4.5mm Steel BBs, .177 Caliber Pellets, & Darts

• Action: Single-stroke spring piston, break-barrel style loading

• Magazine: 18-round BB reservoir (single-shot for pellets and darts)

• Power Source: Spring piston

• FPS: Maximum 200 FPS

• Weight: ~1 lb (454 grams)

• Overall Length: 9 inches

• Construction: Mostly plastic exterior with internal metal components

• Sights: Fixed fiber optic sights (front and rear)

• Safety: Cross-bolt safety

View fullsize

Build Quality & Design The Marksman Spring BB / Pellet / Dart Pistol features a lightweight, predominantly plastic external construction. While it lacks the substantial heft of full-metal replicas, weighing in at just 1 pound, it feels quite comfortable in the hand. The grip has a nice texture and isn't overly thick, making it suitable for shooters with smaller hands even though the pistol maintains a slightly bulky, blocky 1911-style appearance. Despite the external plastic shell, the internal spring piston system and critical mechanical components are made of metal.

View fullsize

Magazine & Loading System Loading this pistol is a unique process. It features a built-in 18-shot internal reservoir for 4.5mm steel BBs. To fire, the rear section of the slide is pulled back to activate the spring piston. Pushing the top portion forward opens the breech in a break-barrel fashion, allowing access to the loading bay. When using BBs, they drop in from the internal reservoir. If you are shooting pellets or darts, you will load them one at a time directly into the breech. An included rubber speed-loader accessory lets you easily drop BBs into the reservoir by simply pinching it, a convenient feature that saves loading time.

Handling & Controls Operating this spring piston pistol requires manual cocking before every shot. The slide is used to cock the internal spring, and the trigger features a skeletonized design within a built-in fairly heavy trigger guard. The trigger pull is decent but requires a deliberate press. The cross-bolt safety effectively locks the trigger, ensuring that the pistol cannot be fired once cocked and loaded until you have disengaged it. (Mine did have an issue)

View fullsize

Sights & Optics The Marksman Spring BB / Pellet / Dart Pistol comes equipped with fixed fiber optic sights on both the front and the rear. This makes target acquisition noticeably easier, especially against various backgrounds or in lower light conditions. The sights are fixed and non-adjustable, and the pistol even though it looks like it does, it does not include accessory rails for mounting aftermarket optics or lasers.

Performance Expectations This airgun is not built for shattering power records, boasting a maximum velocity of around 200 FPS. Because of its low power output, it is very quiet to operate, making it ideal for close-range indoor plinking or backyard target shooting where noise is a concern. The spring piston action means there is no CO2 to buy, keeping your operating costs extremely low.

Pros

• Very affordable (around $50 CAD)

• No CO2 required; low ongoing operating cost

• Versatile ammo compatibility (shoots BBs, pellets, and darts)

• 18-round internal BB reservoir

• Included quick-load pinch accessory for BBs

• Fiber optic sights front and rear

• Lightweight and easy to handle for various hand sizes

• Quiet operation ideal for indoor or backyard shooting

Cons

• Low velocity (max 200 FPS)

• Predominantly plastic exterior construction

• Requires manual cocking for every single shot

• Fixed, non-adjustable sights

• No accessory rails

View fullsize

Final Thoughts The Marksman Spring BB / Pellet / Dart Pistol isn't about raw power or ultra-realistic blowback action. It's an accessible, budget-friendly airgun that doesn't require extra CO2 purchases. With the ability to shoot multiple types of ammo and a convenient included BB loader, it delivers straightforward, simple fun. Stay tuned for the upcoming field test shooting video to see exactly how this performs down range.

In this Table Top Review, we're taking a detailed look at the ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. As always, this is a Table Top Review only, so there won't be any shooting in this video. However, a dedicated Field Test Shooting Video will be coming later to see how it performs in real-world use.

This is an ASG product, officially licensed by CZ, and it features authentic markings, including the 9x19 stamp. It's a modern, full-blowback airsoft replica that mirrors the real steel CZ P-10 C very closely. Manufactured in Taiwan and distributed by ASG, this model stands out with some excellent out-of-the-box features, making it a highly versatile and realistic option for airsoft shooters.

View fullsize

Specifications

• Caliber: 6mm Airsoft BB.

• Action: Semi-auto, full blowback.

• Power Source: Single 12g CO2 cartridge (Green Gas magazines are also available).

• Magazine Capacity: 22-round full metal drop-out magazine.

• Velocity: ~330 FPS (1.05 Joules) with .20g BBs.

• Weight: 1.63 lbs (730 g).

• Overall Length: 7.09 inches (195 mm).

• Construction: Metal slide, nylon/polymer frame.

• Barrel: 14mm CCW threaded outer barrel.

• Hop-Up: Adjustable (accessible via open ejection port).

• Optics Ready: Yes (optics plate pre-installed).

View fullsize

Build Quality & Design

The ASG CZ P-10 C delivers a solid mix of materials with its metal slide and nylon frame construction. The metal slide gives it a realistic, top-heavy weight and feel, while the nylon frame keeps the overall weight balanced at a manageable 1.63 pounds. The full metal 22-round magazine, which houses the 12g CO2 cartridge, adds substantial weight to the grip, giving the gun a very realistic presence in the hand.

Field stripping is incredibly simple and authentic to the real steel version—just pull down the two tabs and rack the slide forward to remove it. While the most of the frame components are mostly plastic, the heavy metal slide ensures durability where it counts.

View fullsize

Handling & Controls

This pistol is designed with ergonomics and modern handling in mind. It features mostly ambidextrous controls, including an ambidextrous slide catch and release. While the magazine release comes set up for right-handed shooters, it is completely reversible. The pistol includes a working trigger safety and comes with three interchangeable backstraps, allowing you to customize the grip size to perfectly fit your hand.

One of the standout design choices on this airgun is the hop-up adjustment. Instead of having to field strip the pistol to make adjustments, you can access the hop-up wheel directly through the open ejection port when the slide is locked back, a massive time-saver during gameplay.

View fullsize

Sights & Optics

Out of the box, the ASG CZ P-10 C is optics-ready and comes with an optics plate already installed on the slide. If you prefer to run standard iron sights, ASG includes a rear white-dot sight in the box that you can easily swap out by removing the plate. It also features a fixed white-dot front sight for quick target acquisition.

Additionally, the gun features a 14mm CCW threaded outer barrel right out of the box, hidden under a protective orange cap. This makes it instantly ready to accept a mock suppressor or a tracer unit once the cap is removed.

View fullsize

Performance Expectations

With a claimed velocity of around 330 FPS (1.05 Joules) using a 12g CO2 cartridge, it hits perfectly within standard indoor CQB limits while still offering enough power for outdoor play. Because it features full blowback operation paired with a fairly heavy metal slide, you can expect a very crisp, realistic recoil effect with every shot.

View fullsize

Pros

• Officially licensed by CZ with authentic 9x19 markings.

• Full blowback operation with a heavy metal slide for realistic recoil.

• Optics-ready out of the box with the plate pre-installed.

• 14mm CCW threaded outer barrel ready for a suppressor or tracer unit.

• Convenient hop-up adjustment dial accessible through the open ejection port (no field stripping required).

• Includes three interchangeable backstraps to customize grip size.

• Ambidextrous slide release and reversible magazine release.

• Simple and realistic field stripping process.

• Comes in a Black and Tan version

Cons

• Comes with an orange cap on the barrel, though it serves to protect the 14mm threads and can be removed.

• The standard rear sight is not installed out of the box (requires swapping the pre-installed optics plate).

• Internal trigger group components are mostly plastic.

View fullsize

Final Thoughts

The ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a fantastic option for anyone looking for a modern, feature-rich sidearm. It bridges the gap perfectly between a realistic training tool and a highly capable Airsoft primary or secondary. The inclusion of an installed optics plate, a threaded barrel, and a hop-up that doesn't require field stripping shows that ASG really thought about the end-user when designing this replica. I'm looking forward to getting this out for the field test to see how that heavy slide cycles and this Airsoft Pistol tests out on the Chrony and Paper Target.

What’s Inside the Box?

Don't let the compact packaging fool you, ASG bundled everything you need to get configured. Along with the pistol and the CO2 magazine, you get a user manual, a discrete rear iron sight option (with white dots matching the front sight), and interchangeable backstraps (small, medium, and large) so you can customize the grip to your exact hand size. Pro tip: If you're looking for the Allen keys to swap the sights or load the CO2, make sure to lift up the cardboard packaging, they are buried safely underneath the box!

What’s Coming Next on the Channel

I am hard at work keeping fresh content rolling your way. Alongside a full tabletop review and upcoming field test for this CZ P10C, I am also working on a highly requested follow-up video for the .68 caliber less-lethal platform. I'll be re-doing the penetration test using a massive 88g CO2 tank to see if the increased capacity gives us a significant performance boost over the dual 12g setup that may have not been at full capacity for my first test..

Welcome back for another field test! Today I am taking the E&L AKN 75 AEG Airsoft Rifle out to the range to see what it can do. If you want a deep dive into the specifications, materials, and a close-up look at the hardware, make sure to watch our dedicated Table Top Review. For this video, however, I am focusing entirely on how this rifle performs when putting plastic to paper.

Velocity and Chronograph Performance

To get a baseline for power and consistency, I ran a string of shots through the chronograph using standard 0.25g Airsoft BBs. Here is how the E&L handled right out of the box:

• Shot 1: 360 FPS

• Shot 2: 358 FPS

• Shot 3: 358 FPS

• Shot 4: 358 FPS

• Shot 5: 358 FPS

The consistency on this AEG is outstanding. After a slightly higher first shot, it locked exactly onto 358 FPS for the remainder of the test string.

One major surprise during the chrono test was the trigger system. Out of the box, the E&L AKN 75 AEG Airsoft Rifle operates with a binary-style double trigger, meaning it fires a round when you pull the trigger, and a second round when you release it. This feature makes it incredibly easy to rattle off rapid, successive shots even while staying in semi-automatic mode.

View fullsize

Downrange Accuracy at 30 Feet

Moving on to the accuracy portion of the review, I set up a fresh paper target exactly 30 feet downrange.

• Semi-Automatic Testing: I fired 10 carefully aimed shots in semi-auto mode. The gun delivered an excellent 1.5-inch grouping. The cluster was perfectly centered left-to-right but landed slightly low on the paper. Because the rear sight was dialed down to its lowest notch, fixing this would simply be a matter of bumping up the sight elevation rather than adjusting the hop-up.

• Full-Automatic Testing: I flipped the selector switch and dumped the rest of the magazine. The rifle chugged right along with a distinct, heavy sound, effortlessly shredding the target without skipping a beat.

Build Notes and Battery Fitment

This is an incredibly authentic-feeling replica. The combination of the real wood front handguard and the stamped steel folding rear stock gives the gun a fantastic, realistic weight.

However, you will need to be mindful of your battery choices. The battery compartment underneath the top dust cover is extremely tight and requires a specific, small nunchuck-style battery to close properly. For the purpose of getting this test done, I actually left the dust cover off of the E&L AKN 75 AEG Airsoft Rifle to fit the battery we had on hand. It doesn't affect performance, but it's something to keep in mind when purchasing accessories.

Final Thoughts

The E&L AKN 75 is a rugged, beautiful AEG that backs up its authentic looks with rock-solid consistency and great accuracy on the range.

In this field test shooting review, we run the G&G PCC45 Pro AEG Airsoft Rifle through our standard range testing, covering raw velocity consistency on the chronograph and accuracy at a distance of 30 feet in both semi-automatic and full-automatic modes. If you are looking for all the technical details, specs, and a closer look at the build, make sure to check out our previously posted Table Top Review. Today, however, is all about real-world performance on the range.

Chronograph Testing

To establish a solid baseline for velocity and consistency, we tested the G&G PCC45 Pro using 0.25g Airsoft BBs. We put a string of rounds through the chronograph to see how it handles out of the box, and the results were impressively uniform:

• Shot 1: 334 FPS

• Shot 2: 334 FPS

• Shot 3: 337 FPS

• Shot 4: 335 FPS

• Shot 5: 334 FPS

Chronograph Verdict

The G&G PCC45 Pro demonstrated excellent consistency, hovering beautifully in the mid-330s with a tight 3 FPS variance across most shots. Averaging right around 335 FPS, this translates to very stable and predictable performance on the field. Keep in mind that because we conducted this test with slightly heavier 0.25g BBs for improved stability, you can expect the velocity to scale up perfectly to standard CQB-friendly limits if you switch to lighter 0.20g rounds.

Accuracy Testing

Moving over to the accuracy portion of our evaluation, we set up a fresh paper target downrange at our standard distance of 30 feet.

• Semi-Automatic Accuracy (10-Shot Group):

  Firing a 10-shot string in semi-automatic mode, the PCC45 Pro delivered a stellar performance. Getting a clear look downrange can be a bit tricky depending on your choice of eyewear, but dialing into the rear peep sight revealed that this rifle is a laser. Out of the box, the 10-shot string punched a remarkably tight 1-inch grouping right near the center. It leaned just a tiny bit low and slightly to the left of the absolute bullseye, but for an unmodified out-of-the-box rifle, that is an incredibly impressive group.

• Full-Automatic Accuracy (Burst Test):

  Switching the selector over to full-automatic "fun mode", we held down the trigger to unleash a heavy, continuous burst to see how much the spread would open up. The spring-fed magazine fed flawlessly, unloading what was left of the mag—likely a solid 90+ rounds, until the mechanical tone changed, signaling we were completely dry. Even under a heavy mag dump, the full-auto spread opened up to just over 2 inches. It chewed a massive, definitive hole right through the paper target, keeping the vast majority of the BBs tightly localized.

View fullsize

Sighting & Ergonomics Note

The built-in iron sights of the G&G PCC45 Pro AEG Airsoft Rifle perform great, featuring a nice, crisp rear peep sight. If you find your shots landing slightly off-center out of the box, the sights are fully adjustable; the rear sight handles windage adjustments (left/right) while the front sight can be moved up or down for elevation adjustments. That said, given the seamless top rail space, adding a premium red dot sight would make a fantastic addition to perfect your sight picture on this platform.

On a quick battery note, managing battery placement on some of these compact platforms can occasionally be a bit tricky out on the range, sometimes requiring a bit of trial and error with different form factors, like nunchuck-style packs, to find the perfect fit inside the tight compartments.

Final Thoughts & Availability

The G&G PCC45 Pro AEG Airsoft Rifle is an exceptionally capable performer. Whether you are a beginner looking for a high-tier primary or a seasoned player wanting a reliable CQB powerhouse, it delivers fantastic accuracy, dependable velocity consistency, and an absolute blast of a full-auto mode.

In this field test shooting review, we run the G&G L85 Carbine AEG Airsoft Rifle through our standard range testing, covering raw velocity consistency on the chronograph and accuracy at a distance of 30 feet in both semi-automatic and full-automatic modes.

If you are looking for detailed specifications, internal details, or close-up styling footage, make sure to check out our comprehensive Table Top Review. Today, however, is all about real-world performance.

Chronograph Testing

We tested the G&G L85 Carbine using 0.25g Airsoft BBs, which are slightly heavier than standard 0.20g ammunition. We put five rounds through the chronograph to establish an average velocity:

• Shot 1: 329 FPS

• Shot 2: 329 FPS

• Shot 3: 328 FPS

• Shot 4: 327 FPS

• Shot 5: 328 FPS

• Shot 6: 328 FPS

Chronograph Verdict

The G&G L85 Carbine AEG Airsoft Rifle demonstrated outstanding consistency, hovering reliably between 327 and 329 FPS averaging 328 FPS. Because we utilized heavier 0.25g BBs for this benchmark, you can expect this rifle to comfortably shoot right around the 360 FPS mark when using standard 0.20g rounds.

This velocity output sits perfectly within Canada’s import requirements, which require a baseline velocity over 366 FPS. It provides an optimal balance for close-quarters battle (CQB) environments while retaining enough power to remain viable for mid-range outdoor field skirmishes.

Accuracy Testing

Moving over to the accuracy portion of our evaluation, we set up a fresh paper target downrange at a distance of 30 feet.

Semi-Automatic Accuracy (10-Shot Group)

Firing a 10-shot string in semi-automatic mode, the G&G L85 Carbine produced a tight, highly respectable 1.5 to 2-inch grouping. The grouping bias leaned slightly high and a bit to the left of the center bullseye, but the consistency from shot to shot was remarkably uniform.

               [  X X X X  ]  --> 1.5" - 2" Grouping

View fullsize

Full-Automatic Accuracy (Burst Test)

Switching over to full-automatic, we aimed slightly low on the paper target and held down the trigger to run through a heavy burst of approximately 50 to 70 rounds until the spring drive ran clear.

Despite a couple of skipped cycles due to the mid-cap magazine running low on ammunition toward the end of the burst, the rifle punched a solid, definitive hole right through the target. The overall full-auto spread expanded slightly but stayed locked within a very consistent 3 to 4-inch grouping.

Operating Impressions

The mechanical performance of the G&G L85 Carbine leaves a distinct impression:

• Rate of Fire: Powered by an 11.1V 3-cell LiPo battery, the rate of fire is snappy and crisp, delivering exactly the kind of aggressive output you want from a high-quality AEG.

• Tactile Feedback: While it doesn't feature a true hard-kicking blowback system, the internal cycling produces a noticeable "shoulder tap" sensation, offering a bit more mechanical feedback than a standard, sterile AEG platform.

• Acoustics: It is worth noting that this is a relatively loud rifle. The gearbox and motor produce a distinct, metallic rattle with every cycle. It sounds robust and mechanical, but it is certainly not a weapon designed for stealth operations.

• Trigger Pull: As an electric switch trigger typical of premium AEGs, the break is highly responsive with virtually no take-up, allowing for quick follow-up shots in semi-auto mode.

Final Thoughts & Availability

The G&G L85 Carbine AEG Airsoft Rifle is an exceptionally solid performer, validating its premium design with excellent velocity consistency and tight groupings on the range.

In this field test, we put the Specna Arms SA-E04 AR15 AEG through its paces, focusing on its chronograph consistency and accuracy performance in both semi-automatic and full-automatic modes.

If you haven't already, be sure to check out the detailed table-top review where we cover the technical specifications, build quality, and close-up features of this highly affordable AR-styled Airsoft rifle.

Chronograph Testing

For this test, we utilized heavier 0.25g Airsoft BBs rather than standard 0.20g rounds.

• Shot 1: 363 FPS

• Shot 2: 362 FPS

• Shot 3: 363 FPS

• Shot 4: 363 FPS

• Shot 5: 362 FPS

Chronograph Verdict

The velocity consistency on this rifle is incredibly impressive, varying by only a single foot per second across consecutive shots. While 0.25g BBs clocked in around the 362–363 FPS mark, switching to standard 0.20g BBs will easily push this rifle well into the 400 FPS range.

Note on Compliance: The legal limit for an airsoft gun to be imported into Canada requires it to exceed 366 FPS with a 0.20g BB. Because this rifle clears that floor easily with heavier ammunition, it comfortably complies with Canadian import guidelines.

(Note: The SA-E04 includes an optional, lighter replacement spring in the box if you need to lower the velocity for local indoor CQB field limits).

Accuracy Testing

We set up a paper target at a distance of 30 feet to observe grouping behavior under a controlled, seated position.

View fullsize

Semi-Automatic Accuracy (10-Shot Group)

The initial 10-shot semi-automatic string produced a very respectable 1.5-inch grouping. The Specna Arms SA-E04 AR15 AEG grouped tightly and predictably, making it more than capable for indoor CQB fields or mid-range outdoor skirmishes.

Full-Automatic Accuracy (Burst Test)

Switching over to full-automatic, we sent a heavy volume of fire downrange (approx. 50 to 70 rounds). The mechanical grouping stayed reasonably tight at roughly 2 inches, though the placement shifted vertically.

Sight Alignment & Out-of-the-Box Adjustments

During the shooting test, the rifle consistently grouped low relative to the center mass of the target, striking about 8 to 9 inches below the point of aim.

Plaintext

[ Aim Point ]  -->  o (Top of Target)
                    |
                    | ~8-9 Inches Low
                    v
[ Impact Point ] --> X (Actual Grouping)

How to Correct It

Because the Specna Arms SA-E04 AR15 AEG shoots low out of the box, the iron sights require basic mechanical adjustment:

• To raise the point of impact, you must lower the front sight post.

• Lowering the front sight forces you to naturally elevate the barrel when aligning your sight picture, bringing the actual point of impact up to match your point of aim.

Alternatively, the top Picatinny rail makes it incredibly easy to bypass the stock iron sights entirely by mounting a red dot or optical sight.

Final Thoughts & Availability

For a bare-bones, budget-friendly Airsoft rifle, the Specna Arms SA-E04 is a durable, lightweight, and remarkably consistent performer. It offers out-of-the-box velocity stability that rivals much more expensive options, making it an excellent platform to build on.

The Steambow B08 .68 Caliber Tactical Crossbow offers a unique and entertaining option for target shooting. In this field test review, I tested the Steambow B08, a .68 caliber launcher that is designed to shoot paintballs, rubber balls, or foam balls. I wanted to test this 35-pound bow to see how it performs in terms of velocity and real-world accuracy at 30 feet downrange.

For ammunition, I tested two different types of projectiles: black rubber balls and soft yellow foam balls. These projectiles are very light, which means firing them feels almost like you are dry-firing the bow all the time. However, using them makes for a cheap way to have some fun plinking around, and you can easily collect and reuse the ammo.

Velocity testing through the chronograph produced some incredibly consistent, albeit unusual, numbers. I fired six shots in total, using three rubber balls followed by three foam balls. The Steambow B08 delivered readings of exactly 129 FPS for all six shots. Seeing six duplicate velocity readings in a row across two different types of ammo is something I don't think I've ever seen before! This suggests that the projectile weight is less important here, as the bow string only moves so fast. For those looking to get more energy downrange, you will definitely want to use heavier projectiles, like a steel ball, and swap out for a heavier limb. (The Steambow B08 comes with a 35 pound limb for reference).

Accuracy testing was performed from 30 feet downrange on a fresh paper target. I loaded the eight-round magazine with four black rubber balls and four soft foam balls. The Steambow B08 .68 Caliber Tactical Crossbow was hitting quite low at this 30-foot distance, forcing me to aim up at the top of the target just to get the shots on paper. The grouping was somewhat scattered all over the place, indicating that this is a launcher you probably want to be working with a little closer in, at around 20 feet would be better in terms of accuracy. Aiming is done using a built-in little green dot at the front, but there is no real sight adjustment to dial it in or change it. Optimally I would sugest putting a simple red dot sight on the picatinny rail.

Overall, the 35-pound Steambow B08 is built primarily for target shooting and is a great way to have fun with your buddies outside or even inside a garage. I definitely wouldn't want to shoot this for pest control unless you plan to upgrade to a heavier limb and denser ammo. For anyone looking for a cheap, fun plinker with reusable ammo, this launcher is a very entertaining choice.

The G&G ESG B10 2.0 continues to offer a truly unique experience for those looking for a bullpup-style gas Airsoft Shotgun. In this field test review for the RA Reviews channel, I tested the shotgun to see how it performs in terms of velocity and real-world accuracy at close range. Having already covered the specifications in the tabletop video, this test focuses on its live-fire performance using the 5-round burst mode. The ESG B10 2.0 has the ability to shoot either 5 or 10 rounds per trigger pull, and getting it on the range really shows off what this platform is meant to do. Checkout my Table. Top Review for details, specifications and more close up video.

For ammunition and setup, I used standard green gas and .25g airsoft BBs. Velocity testing through the chronograph produced some solid and expected numbers. The first shot registered a high of 238 FPS, which is very common on a fresh gas fill. After the gun settled down, it delivered consistent readings of 207 FPS, 206 FPS, and 209 FPS, averaging right around 215 FPS. When you are firing five .25g BBs simultaneously, that combined energy is more than enough for close-quarters engagements.

Accuracy testing was performed from 30 feet downrange using the 105-round mid-cap magazine. Since I didn't have any sights mounted on the G&G ESG B-10 2.0 Gas Airsoft Shotgun for this test, I relied on winging it by aiming slightly to the left to compensate for the spread. The shotgun fired reliably through the entire magazine, giving about 15 or so pulls of the trigger in the 5-round burst mode with a few 10 round burst shots added in. You will immediately know when you are out of ammunition or gas because the gun makes a noticeably different, very quiet sound when firing empty, which is a helpful audible cue during a match.

Overall, the G&G ESG B10 2.0 is a lot of fun and functions exactly as a close-quarters BB sprayer should. The trigger pull is on the heavier side, but it feels good and adds to the robust handling of the gun. The bullpup design makes it incredibly maneuverable for indoor CQB fields. While this review captures the core performance of the shotgun based on this specific field test, it's just a fragment of what this platform can do. You might consider exploring different optic setups on the top rail, experimenting with M-LOK foregrips, or even looking into HPA setups to unlock different aspects of its performance and allow for new play styles.

In terms of how many rounds actually hit the target? Well it’s hard to say, lots missed for sure! That’s not really the point of this type of close quarters shooter, as you want rounds to speed out and hit as many people as possible, so I would say the G&G ESG B-10 2.0 Gas Airsoft Shotgun worked as intended here.

Today, we are putting the Specna Arms SA-F249 to the test. If you haven't seen one yet, be sure to check out the detailed tabletop review and the outdoor shooting video I've already posted. Today, however, is all about the hard numbers. We are bringing it into the indoor sea can to check the chronograph performance and see what kind of accuracy we can squeeze out of this absolute beast on paper. Let's get right to it.

Chronograph Velocity Test

To start things off, I loaded up some quality 0.25g airsoft BBs to run through the chrony. This setup currently has a standard voltage adaptor, for the LED lighting system though my usual one died on me, so I’m running an adjustable voltage adapter.

After a brief, accidental full-auto burst (remember, this is a support weapon designed to lay down cover!), we dialed it in for some attempted single shots (super short trigger pulls) to get our baseline velocity readings.

Chronograph Results (0.25g BBs):

• Shot 1: 363 fps

• Shot 2: 364 fps

• Shot 3: 365 fps

• Shot 4: 362 fps

• Shot 5: 363 fps

• Shot 6: 365 fps

The consistency here is phenomenal. We are sitting right in that 363 to 365 fps sweet spot. For an AEG out of the box, seeing variance of only a couple of feet per second between shots is a testament to the internal air seal and overall build quality.

Full-Auto Accuracy Test

With the velocity dialed in, it was time to set up a paper target downrange. Because this is a sport based automatic weapon, there's no semi-auto selector that I could locate, it's meant to be fired in full auto, and that’s exactly how we tested it.

Instead of the massive 1500-round box magazine it comes with, I opted to run a standard AR-15 style magazine for this indoor test. I locked it in, aimed just below the center of the target, and let the spring unwind until the mag the spring could not push anymore Airsoft BB’’s out, dumping roughly 50 to 75 rounds in one continuous burst.

The Results: Absolutely incredible. For a full-auto dump of that size, you would normally expect the BBs to spray across the paper. a little bit Instead, the Specna Arms SA-F249 punched a jagged, blown-out hole right through the target, resulting in a remarkably tight 2-inch grouping.

To pump that many rounds into such a condensed area on full auto is outstanding. It proves that this gun isn't just about suppressing fire; it provides highly accurate, concentrated fire downrange.

Final Thoughts

The Specna Arms SA-F249 is an incredibly impressive piece of kit. It delivers laser-like consistency on the chronograph and lays down surprisingly tight groupings in full auto. If you are looking for a support weapon that doesn't compromise on accuracy, this one needs to be on your radar.

Today, we are checking out the second-generation Lil' Sure Shot Annie Oakley BB Rifle. This is essentially a Red Ryder-styled, spring-powered BB rifle.

If you are interested in seeing how this looks up close along with the specifications and details, make sure to check out the table-top video. Today is going to be all about shooting it.

Chronograph Velocity Test

To get started, I needed to warm up the chrony, which took a little bit of troubleshooting. I had an ongoing voltage issue with my chronograph lighting and had to use a voltage regulator set to almost exactly 7 volts to get it to work properly without a proper adapter.

Once the chrony was up and running, I put several rounds through the rifle to test the velocity. The velocity remained pretty consistent in the mid-300s, with shots recording at 341, 340, 333, 329, 334, and 332 fps. averaging out at 334.

Target Accuracy Performance

For the accuracy portion of the test, I set up a paper target 30 feet down range. Here is how the rifle performed:

• Grouping: After firing about 10 shots, the rifle got just over a two-inch grouping.

• Placement: The shots were well-centered from left to right, though it shot a little high even when aiming just under the bullseye. I noticed a few stray BBs came back, which happens if they hit metal instead of the cloth backboard, causing some high flyers. (This could of been me as the bulk of the shots all grouped really nicely)

• Sights & Adjustability: It can be a little tough on the eyes aiming black front and rear sights on a target when you need readers for most things, which may have contributed to some of those shots hitting slightly higher. You can adjust the elevation slightly by moving a little piece on the sight backward and forward to raise or lower it. The rifle also features a dovetail, allowing you to mount a nice optical sight or a red dot.

Trigger Pull & Feel

• Pull Weight: The trigger pull comes in at around 5 to 6 pounds.

• Action: It is fairly short with a pretty predictable break.

• Usability: It requires a little effort, but it is not a super hair trigger, making it perfect for youngsters who are just starting out with shooting.

Conclusion

Overall, the Annie Oakley Lil' Sure Shot delivers exactly what you want out of a classic, Red Ryder-styled spring-powered BB rifle: it's straightforward, reliable, and just plain fun to shoot. While you aren't going to get competition-level precision out of a smoothbore BB gun, holding a solid two-inch grouping at 30 feet and putting out very consistent mid-300s fps velocities proves that it is more than capable of handling your everyday plinking or indoor target practice.

What really makes this rifle shine is its accessibility. With a predictable 5 to 6-pound trigger pull that requires deliberate effort without being a super hair trigger, it is a fantastic option for youngsters who are just learning the fundamentals of shooting. Plus, the inclusion of a dovetail mount means there is room to grow with the shooter, you can easily slap a red dot on there if the standard black iron sights prove a bit too tough on the eyes against various target. If you are looking for an entry-level plinker that performs right where it should, this second-generation Lil' Sure Shot is a great place to start.
