We made it to the Barra Booth here at SHOT Show 2026 and once again I caught up with Jacob to check out what’s new for 2026, lots of “modern western” energy this year, plus some serious PCP development and even a very functional slingshot.

• New “cowboy” premium single-action revolver (PCP cartridge-powered): Unlike most revolvers in this category that run on CO2, this one uses refillable air cartridges (small pressure chambers) filled to ~2000 PSI. You load a pellet into the nose cone, charge multiple cartridges at once using a charging manifold (up to six at a time), then drop the loaded cartridges into the cylinder just like shells.

  • Caliber shown: .22

  • Hand pump fill estimate: roughly ~10 pumps (quick top-offs), with a tip to pump → degas → pump againfor more consistent cartridge pressure.

  • Frame/version: brass frame first, with other versions planned.

  • Positioning: premium / highest-quality cowboy-style item in their lineup; made in Italy.

  • Early price talk: roughly $400–$500 range (with cartridges), but still TBD.

• 1866 CO2 Lever Action – Tactical version (launching this year): Built off their popular CO2-powered 1866 lever action (two CO2 cartridges in the buttstock, shells load into the gun, lever cycles and ejects).

  • Updates: black stock, M-LOK fore-end, larger Picatinny section, and paracord wrap on the lever for comfort.

  • Calibers: .22 is the focus (with .177 also planned/available).

• New slingshot (with internal grip magazine): A compact, foldable slingshot that stores ammo in the grip and feeds by gravity—engineered so it releases one steel shot at a time.

  • Uses flat bands (easy to swap/upgrade for strength/velocity).

  • Sighting: built-in sight plus fiber optic references for left/right-handed use and different ranges.

• Replica-style break barrels (AK + M16 formats): Two new break-barrel rifles styled after an AK and an M16 with non-functional replica controls, but standard break-barrel operation.

  • Sights/optics: adjustable iron sights plus Picatinny rail for optics.

  • Calibers mentioned/planned: .177 / .22 / .25.

• New PCP platform: “300Z” (pre-production prototype in hand): A more serious, modern tactical PCP design with:

  • Folding stock, 1913/Picatinny rear, dual gauges, 2-stage trigger

  • Externally adjustable regulator

  • Ambidextrous side lever (convertible)

  • Rotary magazine (prototype shown in .30 cal, 8 rounds)

  • Power testing target: up to ~80 ft-lb in .30 cal

  • Notes: barrel shroud look—not a suppressor; Canada discussion included licensing/detune possibilities.

• Updated PCP: “270Z” (built off the 250Z, redesigned internals): A redesigned system meant to feel more like a traditional bolt action, with increased plenum volume (machined from a solid block of aluminum) targeting ~20% more power than the 250Z.

  • Features: adjustable cheek rest, M-LOK fore-end

  • Timing: Q2 target for the 270Z; Q3 target for the 300Z.

Jacob also emphasized an ongoing push toward higher workmanship, better materials, and improved performance, and it shows, especially in the new premium western revolver and the next-gen PCP lineup.

Watch the Full Interview Video:

We visited the ASG booth with Bob (his 13th SHOT Show) to check out what’s new for 2026, with several updates aimed at Canadian buyers.

• New budget AR AEG line (April/May target): three versions planned (all-polymer, polymer receiver w/ metal rail, and all-metal). Target pricing is about $150 USD (polymer) and $210–$220 USD (all-metal). Includes battery + charger, plus two springs (one outdoor/Canada-legal and one ~330 FPS), with easy spring swaps. Some models include an ETU.

• GL06 40mm launcher: an older favorite that keeps selling, highlighted for its durable build, long barrel, and long firing pin designed for better reliability with a wider range of shells.

• Canada-focused HPA solution (in development): ASG is working on an HPA setup to help gas blowback models meet Canada’s import threshold (they referenced 367 fps) so more options can be brought into the country.

• Canada version P-10 CO2 (March/April target): updated with a higher-velocity valve aiming around ~380 fps, making it Canada import legal. Comes in black and FDE, full blowback, and includes an optics plate for red dots.

• Blaster BBs refreshed: BB lineup is consolidated into Blaster / Alpha Blaster (premium) / Beta Blaster (budget/field), with options like bio and tracer. US availability is expected early February.

I just got back from SHOT Show 2026 in Las Vegas, and let me tell you, it was an action-packed trip! Over on our channels, we’ve just dropped a fast-paced highlight reel that captures the best moments of our week long stay.

The SHOT Show took place at the Venetian Convention Center, and you’ll see plenty of footage capturing the scale and energy of the event itself: busy show floors, massive booths, indoor and outdoor areas, and the overall atmosphere of one of the largest firearms and shooting-sports events in the world, with Airguns and related gear naturally woven throughout.

But it’s not just airguns, we’ve got slices of Vegas! You’ll catch us strolling Fremont Street, lounging poolside, and soaking up those iconic Vegas vibes between interviews. Whether you’re here for the Airguns or the atmosphere, this video’s got it all, music, cuts, the show floor, and a taste of Las Vegas. Check it out now and immerse yourself in the SHOT Show experience!

I was in Las Vegas last week for SHOT Show, filming content for Replica Airguns, but I wanted to post a quick update so you know what I was up to.

I went to SHOT Show to connect with people in the industry and record a bunch of interviews with vendors and companies, Airgun and aintball brands included (and more). I ended up filming about seven interviews, and now that I’m home I’ve got a lot of great footage to go through.

I was in Vegas with my buddy Steve (the guy behind the camera). Once the filming was wrapped, we spent some time enjoying the city after a busy week. We also did a few things outside of SHOT Show, because if you’re in Vegas, you might as well experience it.

In this video, we’re at the Montecristo Cigar Bar inside Caesars Palace, winding down with a nice port and a cigar.

Stay tuned,now that I’m back, I’ll start editing and posting those interviews. If you want to watch the SHOT Show interview series, head over to Replica Airguns or watch on our Vimeo and YouTube channels as I post them…

In this Field Test Shooting Video I take a look at the KJ Works KP-19S. I’ve reviewed the KP-19 in the past, so this one should perform similarly, but it’s been a while and I wanted to get this one out for a proper range session.

I’ve already done a tabletop / close-up video for the KP-19S covering the specs, features, and up-close details, so if you want the full walk-around and all the technical info, make sure you check that out first.

For today’s session, I focused strictly on performance in the same basic field-test format: velocity testing, then a 10-shot accuracy group at 30 feet, and finally some overall shooting impressions.

Velocity Testing (Chronograph)

For the chronograph test, I ran 0.25g Airsoft BBs (not 0.20g), so expect the readings to come in a bit lower than what many people quote online.

My chronograph also decided to be difficult today, throwing “Error 2” messages and not registering shots consistently, so I had to keep working at it until it finally started giving me some readings.

Once it cooperated, I got five velocity readings:

• 312 fps, 304 fps, 293 fps, 288 fps, 284 fps:

• Average of 296 fps

A couple notes to keep things fair:

• If I had started the test with zero shots fired beforehand (the way I normally try to do it to maximize “fresh CO2” performance), the first shots could be a bit higher.

• Because this was with 0.25g BBs, if you ran 0.20g BBs, you’d likely see higher numbers, potentially into the low-to-mid 300s depending on conditions.

• This model also includes an extended barrel option that can push velocity higher, but I didn’t test it that way because most people run the pistol in its standard configuration (without a long exposed barrel sticking out).

Accuracy Testing (30 Feet)

For the accuracy test, I put a paper target at 30 feet and fired 10 rounds. The nice thing here is that the pistol should lock back on the last shot, so it makes it easy to confirm you’re done without having to count.

Results were excellent for a quick out-of-the-box test:

• With the exception of one flyer, everything was within about an inch

• The group was well-centered left-to-right

• Elevation was also very good without any sight adjustments

There isn’t much you can do for sight adjustment on this one unless you add a laser or optic, but you can tweak elevation slightly via hop-up, depending on your setup.

Final Thoughts

This pistol performed really well for me today.

The KJ Works KP-19S has that 1911-style trigger feel, light, short, and responsive, paired with a snappy blowback that makes it fun to shoot. Velocity was consistent once the chronograph started behaving, and the 30-foot grouping was far better than I expected without any tuning.

Aesthetically, it’s also a great-looking gun: a tactical, modern two-tone style with a double-stack magazine look that gives it that “2011 / hi-cap tactical 1911” vibe. If that’s the style you’re after, the KP-19S is a strong choice.

It should also work with most KJ Works tactical 1911 / double-stack style magazines, so if you already own similar KJ Works pistols, you may be able to mix and match mags. You can also run green gas magazines, but velocity will generally be lower. If you do choose to run the extended / threaded barrel setup, you can hide it with a mock compensator, but it will turn the pistol into a longer, bulkier package. Personally, I prefer it in the standard configuration.

Where to Buy

You can check this pistol out in our Canada Store (and possibly the US Store, depending on availability). I’ll include links where applicable, along with general store links where you can browse airguns, BB guns, airsoft guns, pellet guns, blank guns, and accessories.

Thanks for watching and reading, don’t forget to subscribe, and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. And yes, we’re back on YouTube after being gone for years. We’re re-uploading older content from Vimeo manually, so it’ll take a bit to get everything restored, but all new videos should be going up on YouTube as well going forward.

I had the chance to take the KWC 18 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol out for some shooting today to see how it performs. It’s a Glock-styled 4.5mm steel CO2 BB pistol with full blowback and selectable semi and full auto. It’s not an officially licensed Glock, but if you own (or have shot) Glocks, the controls and overall feel will be instantly familiar.

I’ve already done a close-up tabletop video for the KWC 18 covering specs and details, so if you want the up-close visuals and feature breakdown, make sure to check that out first.

For this session I concentrated solely on performance: a quick 5-shot chronograph run in semi-auto to record velocity, a 10-round semi-auto group at 30 feet, and then a full-auto mag dump to get a practical feel for controllability and “real world” accuracy—right out of the box (no tuning).

Velocity Testing (Chronograph)

For the chronograph testing, I ran five shots in semi-auto with a brand new CO2 in the magazine. The numbers came in at 293, 294, 282, 290, and 282 fps, for an average of about 288 fps. The spread was tight and the pistol felt extremely “snappy” while shooting, there’s a lot of pop in the blowback and you can feel it cycling hard.

One important note: this is a single-action-only style system, so you do need to rack the slide to cock it before it’ll fire (ask me how I know…).

View fullsize

Accuracy Testing (30 Feet)

For accuracy, I put a paper target out at 30 feet and fired 10 rounds in semi-auto. After a quick adjustment (the pistol was hitting very low at first), I aimed higher and got a roughly 3-inch grouping. The group was well centered left-to-right, but the pistol was still shooting noticeably low overall.

This is the kind of thing you’d simply keep in mind while shooting, and depending on the setup, you may be able to tweak elevation a little (but with steel BBs at short range, don’t expect miracles).

Full Auto (Mag Dump)

Then I loaded up and did a full-auto mag dump. As expected, it was basically spray-and-pray at 30 feet. The rate of fire is insane, and between that and the strong blowback, it was extremely difficult to keep rounds on target. I may have only landed a couple hits on paper.

Final Thoughts

All told, the KWC 18 is a really fun Glock-style blowback BB pistol if you want something that feels familiar in the hand and delivers a crisp trigger with serious recoil-like blowback. In semi-auto it’s manageable (even if it shoots low out of the box), but in full auto, at least at 30 feet, it’s more about the fun factor than practical accuracy.

In this Table Top Review, we’re taking a detailed look at the KJ Works KP-19S CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. I’ve already reviewed the standard KP-19 in the past, and while the two pistols share a lot in common, there are some important differences between the KP-19 and the KP-19S that are worth covering.

I’m not entirely sure what the “S” officially stands for, possibly Sport—but interestingly, I’d actually argue that the non-S KP-19 is the more competition-oriented version, especially for IPSC-style Airsoft shooting. That said, the KP-19S still offers excellent performance, strong build quality, and a feature-rich design.

As always, this is a Table Top Review only. A full Shooting / Field Test Video will follow later.

This pistol is currently available in our Canada Replica Airguns store, and if a similar model is available in the US store, links will be provided in the video description.

KP-19 vs KP-19S – What’s Different?

The KP-19S shares most of its core design with the standard KP-19:

• Same frame, grip, slide profile, trigger guard

• Same skeletonized trigger and hammer

• Same magazine compatibility

View fullsize

Key Differences

• KP-19 (Non-S):

  • Flared magwell

  • Compensator

  • Removable rear plate for mounting a red dot

  • More competition-oriented configuration

• KP-19S:

  • No flared magwell (cleaner, more streamlined look)

  • Fixed rear sight

  • Two-tone appearance

Performance between the two should be nearly identical, and if you’ve already watched the field test for the standard KP-19, expect similar results from the S version.

Walk-Around & Handling:

The KP-19S is a large pistol with a fairly wide grip. Shooters with smaller hands may find it bulky, but balance and weight distribution are excellent. At just under two pounds, it feels solid without being overly heavy.

Notable features include:

• Slide cutouts on the top and sides

• CNC-style gold/brass-colored fluted barrel visible through the slide

• Fiber-optic sights that are extremely easy to pick up

• Ambidextrous safety

• Reversible magazine release

• Dual threaded barrel system (inner and outer threads)

The full blowback action is strong, crisp, and satisfying, with excellent slide movement and reset.

View fullsize

Field Strip:

Field stripping follows a classic 1911 takedown:

1. Align the slide notch

2. Push out the takedown pin

3. Remove the slide assembly

Once opened, you gain easy access to:

• Inner barrel

• Recoil spring

• Hop-up adjustment wheel

Reassembly is quick and straightforward, making cleaning and maintenance easy.

View fullsize

Pros:

• High metal content with excellent weight and balance

• Strong, realistic full blowback action

• Excellent fit and finish typical of KJ Works pistols

• High-capacity 25-round metal magazine

• CO2 or gas compatibility (with appropriate magazines)

• Dual threaded barrel for accessories and extensions

• Bright fiber-optic sights (easy to acquire on any background)

• Short, light, adjustable 1911-style trigger

• Ambidextrous safety and reversible mag release

• Easy field stripping and hop-up access

Cons:

• Grip is wide and may not suit shooters with smaller hands

• Higher price point compared to similar KWC 1911 models

• Rear sight is not adjustable and does not accept a red-dot plate

  • Optics would need to be rail-mounted from underneath

View fullsize

Final Thoughts:

The KJ Works KP-19S is a high-quality, full-featured CO2 blowback Airsoft pistol with excellent build quality, strong recoil, and competition-inspired styling. While it lacks some of the modular competition features of the KP-19 non-s version, it offers a cleaner, streamlined look and the same reliable performance.

If you’re looking for a quality CO2 Airsoft pistol with a fantastic trigger, solid blowback, and premium construction, the KP-19S is a strong contender.

A full shooting and field test video will be coming soon.

I had the chance to take the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol out for some testing today in the Replica Airguns Indoor Shooting Range to see how it performs. I’ve already done my close-up tabletop breakdown (specs, build, pros/cons), so if you want the close-up visuals adn details, go check that video out. For this session I concentrated solely on performance, a quick 5-shot chronograph run to record velocity and a 10-round semi auto group at 30 feet followed by the rest of the mag in full auto to get a practical feel for out-of-the-box accuracy.

For the chronograph test I used a fresh 12-gram CO2 capsule with stand.25 gram Airsoft BBs, and the temperature was about 20°C. Five shots with .25 gram Airsoft BBs registered 301, 301, 291, 285, and 281 fps, averaging out to 292 fps. That’s within the expected range for a full-blowback CO2 pistol running heavier .25 gram Airsoft BBs, you’d see higher velocities with lighter .20 gram rounds, and it’s plenty adequate for Airsoft games and target work plinking.

View fullsize

On the accuracy side I fired from 30 feet using a semi-rested shooting position (hands braced on a sandbag while seated). In semi-auto the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol shot just slightly low and a touch left, producing roughly a 2-inch group with most rounds clustered reasonably well. Switch to full-auto, however, and it becomes almost impossible to keep on target, the pistol tended to climb high and stray to the right, putting most shots completely off the target. That full-auto behavior makes it poor for controlled rapid-fire engagement, but in semi-auto it’s much more manageable.

All told, the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a strong option if you like the Glock style or already own (or plan to own) a real-steel Glock. physically and mechanically it shares a very similar feel. KJWorks has a reputation for high-quality, well-made products, and this pistol is another solid example. If you don’t need official Glock licensing but want a Glock-based Airsoft pistol, the KP-18 is a great choice, especially for shooters who value realism and good build quality in a reasonably priced package.

Trigger Pull: The trigger on the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol behaves like a true Single Action Only unit, pleasantly light with a fairly short travel. There’s a bit of initial take-up, but you can clearly sense the crisp break near the rear where the release occurs, extremely light, consistent, and free of any noticeable slack. Remember you’ll need to rack the slide to chamber the first BB; after that the blowback mechanism handles all subsequent cycling.

View fullsize

Accuracy: I haven’t yet fired the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol or produced a Field Test Performance video for it. However, I’ve already completed a full field and shooting test for the very similar KJWorks KP-13, so I’d expect comparable on-target performance between the two. I’ll post a full field test and shooting video for the KP-18 TBC down the road, stay tuned.

View fullsize

Build Quality: KJWorks pistols are generally well made, and I expect the KP-18 TBC to follow that pattern. Based on my hands-on time with the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol and my first impressions of the KP-18, fit and finish look excellent. As with other models, you’ll find metal and polymer components positioned where they would be on a real modern semi-auto pistol, which contributes to the solid, authentic feel.

View fullsize

Realism: The KJWorks KP-18 TBC is a close visual replica of the real-steel Glock G18-style pistol, albeit without official licensing. Umarex holds the Glock license for many BB and Airsoft models, and the fact that a green-gas magazine from the Umarex Glock 17 full-blowback fits the KP-18 suggests KJWorks may be manufacturing some Glock-pattern airguns for Umarex. Glock has historically objected to unlicensed replicas in North America, so how this will play out remains unclear. For now, both licensed and unlicensed options exist for buyers.

View fullsize

Pros:

• Metal and Polymer with decent weight and good feel to it.

• Heavy Full blowback operation.

• Excellent fit and finish as always with KJWorks pistols.

• High capacity full size drop out magazine that holds the CO2 and 22 rounds.

• Well hidden safety incorporated into the serial number under the barrel.

• Working trigger safety.

• White dot front sight and white outlined rear sight for easy target acquisition.

• All working components like a real steel Glock styled pistol.

• Comes with extended threaded outer barrel for adding a possible compensator or mock-suppressor.

• Comes with barrel extension for higher velocity shooting (Possibly for easier import into Canada).

• Would make a good training weapon if you are a real steel Glock owner.

• Has a semi and full auto selector toggle located on the left rear of the slide.

• Can use CO2 or gas magazines.

• Field strip-able.

• No orange tip.

View fullsize

Cons:

• Sights are not adjustable.

• Full auto will use CO2 like crazy but may be worth it.

• Not a licensed version.

Comments:

If you’re a Glock enthusiast seeking a realistic training piece, you can shoot more affordably and in more places, there are more choices than ever. If official licensing matters, Umarex is the go-to option, although I haven’t seen a full-auto Glock from them yet. For those who prioritize a full-auto-style experience, the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is as close to a real-steel Glock full-auto feel as you’re likely to find. I also appreciate the magazine interchangeability with some Umarex Glock mags if you already own a Glock 17 Airsoft pistol for instance. Whatever route you choose, it’s great to see more Glock-pattern airguns coming to market.

In this Umboxing Preview Video I take a quick look at tow Airsoft Guns from KJWorks, one is a Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifle and one is a CO2 Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol. I don’t get into too many of the details or specifications as this is really the first time I have seen either of these Airsoft Guns in person, a full table top and field test video review will be coming up for both of these Airguns down the road but I did want to get them out there so everyone know these are either in the Replica Airguns Online Store or will be showing up soon.

The first item I grabbed out of the box was the KJWorks KP-18 TBC CO2 Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol which looks a lot like a Glock but with a full auto selector switch on the left side of the slide and it also is the TBC model so it comes with a barrel extension that attaches to the inner barrel and the option to add a mock suppressor to the outside barrel threads. This version comes with a CO2 magazine but I am sure there are option to use it with a Gas magazine also.

Next out of the box was the KJWorks M700 Take Down Gas Airsoft Sniper Rifle which is a break down bolt action gas operated Sniper based Rifle as the name suggests. It is super easy to assemble and has a nice smooth bolt with the only sighting option being the addition of a scope added to the included picatinny rail.

I had a really fun time teasing out the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol. I’ve already done a full tabletop review covering all the specifications, features, pros, and cons, so check that one out if you want the detailed breakdown adn more closer up video. Today’s video is all about the performance. I’m running it through the chronograph to see how fast it really shoots, and then putting ten rounds on paper target at 30 feet to get a realistic look at its true accuracy.

For the velocity test, I loaded up a fresh 12-gram CO2 cartridge and standard 0.25-gram Airsoft BBs. The temperature during testing was about 24°C, or 75°F. Six shots over the chronograph came in at 296, 316, 299, 296, 301, and 294 feet per second, which works out to a 300 fps average. Not bad using the heavier .25 gram Airsoft BB’s. That’s a solid result for this full blowback platform, and on a warmer day adn using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s, you could probably squeeze a bit more speed out of it.

As per usual, accuracy testing was done from 30 feet out, shooting from a semi-rested position with my hands braced on a sandbag for stability and sitting on a stool in the back. The KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol printed slightly high, but windage was spot-on, and the string came in at roughly a 1.5-inch group. One shot wandered off a bit low as a flyer, but overall, the grouping was tight for a CO2 blowback Airsoft pistol, showing it’s more than capable of consistent performance.

Overall, I came away impressed with the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol. The single-action trigger is crisp and light, giving it a very clean break. The blowback is strong and sharp, adding to the realism, and the build quality looks and feels solid in the hand. With its accurate shooting, great trigger feel, and satisfying recoil, this pistol is an excellent pick for anyone after a high-quality CO2 blowback 1911 that looks, feels, and performs the part. Another winner form KJWorks!

Wow, two mystery boxes this time to unpack and see what’s inside! I did have a bit of an idea that there was going to be two new BB Blowback CO2 Glocks from Umarex, the same ones I checked out at this years SHOT Show. There was also some more Air Pistols from various companies. One from Novritsch, the SSX23 NBB Gas Airsoft Pistol, that looked like it was Blowback as the slide does cycles. The Daisy 415 Powerline CO2 BB Pistol, a fairly simplistic Air Pistol, the Vigilante Dual Ammo CO2 BB/Pellet Revolver, I’m pretty sure I have visited before from Crosman. And one more item from Umarex, the Umarex Ruger P345 CO2 NBB Airsoft Pistol keeping to the basic low cost theme.

I also got a few accessor items from a company called GEAR STOCK, Some CO2 in 12 and 88 gram along with some 6mm aluminum Airsoft BB’s. A very cool rechargeable red and green laser that comes in a nice hard shell case and it has a picatinny rail on the bottom she you can stack a second accessory under it.

Here are some links and specs for the Airguns I show off in this mystery box video:

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol is exactly what you would expect from a similar real steel 1911, it’s super short and light, the take-up is almost non-existent with a super light release. There is no adjustment on it but I don’t feel it is needed at all as this is not a competition Airgun, KJWorks does make and sell 1911’s more suited for competition shooting. There is just something about a 1911 trigger that I love!

View fullsize

Accuracy: At this point I have not shot the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol or even made my Field Test Shooting Performance Video. I have shot a fair amount of KJWorks Full Blowback Airsoft Pistols and they have in all seemed to perform very well for me. So I’m confident when I get to the Field Test Shooting Video for the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol I will not be disappointed in it.

Build Quality: The KJWorks line of Airsoft Guns are known for their quality build and attention to detail, the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol is no exception. It is a mostly all metal Airgun with the acceptation of the grips and gas tube, and perhaps a couple other small internal parts? Fit and finish is bang on and the slide spring feels nice and firm, which should result in a nice crisp blowback action. There is almost no slide wiggle with the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol which again speaks to the quality and workmanship of KJWorks products.

View fullsize

Realism: I’m not really sure how you could get a more realistic Airsoft Pistol than what you have here with the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol. It is 1 to 1 scale and functions almost identically to a real steel 1911 A1. It has full blowback operation and can be field stripped fully top to bottom. Even the grip safety is required in order to shoot it. This version in order to fit the flared out CO2 cartridges does have indents in the magwell which is different than what you would ind on a traditional 1911 but it is not super obvious.

View fullsize

Pros:

• Pretty much all metal pistol with good weight to it.

• Full heavy blowback operation.

• Excellent fit and finish as always with KJWorks pistols.

• High capacity full size drop out magazine that holds the Airsoft BB’s and CO2. (Can get Green Gas mags also).

• Comes with barrel extension and threaded barrel tip.

• Comes in all black and OD green two tone finish.

• Working backstop safety

• Nice short and light true 1911 style single action only trigger.

• Fully field strip-able.

View fullsize

Cons:

• Sight are non-adjustable and do not have any white or fiber inserts.

• No rail mounting options.

• CO2 magazine sticks out a bit.

Comments:

If you are looking for a traditional 1911 styled semi auto Colt Pistol and don’t want a more modernized 1911 then the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol has that classic look but with a bit of an upgraded magazine and the ability to add a mock compensator mainly to protect and hide the barrel extension which when added will increase the velocity and perhaps also accuracy. I like the all black version but you can also get one in two tone OD Green for a more contrasted look. Looking down the sights will be your biggest challenge with the KJWorks Full Metal 1911 TBC CO2 Airsoft Pistol, as it has standard post and notch sights that do not have any white dots or marking to assist with aiming. It will be an upgrade for sure from a lessor expensive KWC Full Blowback 1911 and I feel ti is worth the additional money especially if you are a big 1911 fan like me.

In this Unboxing Video I checkout a mid sized mystery box and find some new products inside that I will be making future Table Top and Field Test Shooting Videos for. In this Unboxing Preview Video I mainly talk a look at each item mostly for the fist time and I go over some of the basics for each of them. IN my upcoming full review videos I will go way more into detail so make sure to watch those videos when they come out.

So what did I get in this months box of goodies? The first item I unpacked was the KJWorks 1911-TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. A firmly traditional 1911 with a single stack magazine configuration at least in terms of external size. I am pretty sure the actual Airsoft BB’s will stack side by side to some degre as it does hold 24 rounds. It also comes with a barrel extension and the ability to add a much suppresser to it to cover the barrel extension I would imagine. It is also available in an OD green receiver version.

View fullsize

The next item I grabbed from the box was the NcSTAR FlipDot Mod. 02 Flip-up Red Dot Sight specifically designed with a MOS compatible mounting plate for Glock Pistols like the new Umarex Glocks I checked out at this years SHOT Show. You can mount this compact Flip-up Red Dot sight directly to the slide of these new Glocks and it also comes with some adaptor plate option for attaching it to a Picatinny Rail.

View fullsize

The next item I took a look at was the Umarex Combat Zone Enforcer Airsoft Pistol. A low cost adn simplistic mostly plastic CO2 powered lightweight Airgun with an all metal 15 round stick magazine and a 400 fps claimed velocity. It’s not going to be the most exciting Airgun but there is very little to go wrong and being so light weight makes it super durable in the even of a drop or fall.

View fullsize

Last but perhaps the oust interesting item that came in this months mystery box was the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Airsoft Rifle. I kind of butchered the name but I do talk a pretty good look at it in they video. The G&G ARP9 3.0P is a compact AEG Rifle (at least with the stock folded out). It has a unique magazine where the Airsoft BB’s load into 4 separate channels, I am assuming this helps to get more ammo in the magazine (300 rounds) and make it smoother so hopefully less or no jamming. The G&G ARP9 3.0P feels solid in the hand and well made, it also has a claimed velocity of 370 fps which is perfect.

I look forward to making my full Table Top and Shooting Review videos of each of these items so make sure to check back if you are interested in any of them…

In this Field Test Shooting video for the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle, I test it out to see what to expect in terms of velocity in fps by shooting several rounds through my Chronograph and averaging them out. I also shot the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle both in semi and full auto on a paper target setup 30 feet away to see if I can get a decent grouping in both semi and full auto. If you want information like details and specifications, then checkout my Table Top Review for the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rife located at this link.

Starting with power and velocity, I loaded up the magazine with as much gas as I could get into it, along with enough .20 gram Airsoft BB’s to average out at least 5 shots. I ended up using 6 shots in total for an average of 393 fps. Each individual shot was as follows… 427, 383, 368, 410, 406, 363 FPS. The temperature in the Indoor Airgun Sea Can Shooting Range was around 20 degree Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit, so not overly warm or cool, In cooler or warmer temperatures the velocity will go up and down a little bit.

Moving on to accuracy, I first performed my test with the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle in semi auto to see what kind of 10 shot grouping I could get. I did not make any sight adjustments and just shot it right out of the box. My standard test is from 30 feet out shooting using a seated position in the back with my hands on a sand bag up front, this allows for a fairly stable shooting position. I did up the weight of my Airsoft BB’s to .25 grams which can help a little bit with accuracy, but I would suggest going even heavier with this Airsoft Rifle, perhaps try out .30 gram Airsoft BB’s. That said I was able to get a 3 inch 10 shot grouping that shot several inches below the bullseye I was aiming at, and just slightly to the left but not by much. I then switched over to full auto and probably should have aimed higher since this Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifle really kicks and moves around. Unfortunately most of my full auto shots went low and did not record on the paper so it is hard to say what the spread of the group was in Full Auto but I know it did open up a lot.

I really enjoy shooting and testing out Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifles since most are generally AEG and don’t have all the recoil and blowback action. GBB Airsoft Rifles not only look and feel much more real, that blowback action simulates the trigger feel and shooting experience so much more. Compared to an AEG velocity is less consistent not only between shots but as you shoot the gas cools down the Airgun resulting in slower and slower velocity which is even more noticeable in full auto when using a GBB Airsoft Rifle. I would personally use the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle mostly in semi auto as it shot very reliably in semi auto, full auto is a bit chaotic and your accuracy really suffers in full auto. The Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle is about as realistic as you can get to experiencing a real steel AR type Rifle but it is fairly expensive at the end of the day and in terms of perforce you will get more out of even a middle of the road AEG Airsoft Rifle. So if realism is more important than performance and lower cost, I would go with something like the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle.

If you like or own a Ruger 10/22 then the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle might be just what you are looking for as it shares a lot in common with the Ruger 10/22 22LR but of course this one is 6mm Airsoft which means you can buy it and shoot it a lot easier at least here in Canada with no license or registration required. In this Indoor Shooting Field Test Video I checkout the velocity in fps and I also shoot 10 rounds into a paper target setup 30 feet down range to see if it is capable of getting a decent grouping. If you want information like details and specifications along with nice close up video of the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle then click on this link to watch my Table Top Review Video for it.

Starting with power/velocity. I loaded up the magazine with .20 gram Airsfot BB’s and stuffed as much Gas into the magazine as it would hold, I then proceeded to shoot 5 Airsoft BB’s through my Cronograph resulting in an average of 318 fps. The actual recorded shots were as follows: 321, 313, 318, 320, 320 fps. The temperature was perhaps a bit below actual room temperature on this day but it was not cold at all as you can see since I was wearing my trademark wife beater… In warmer conditions I would assume a slightly higher velocity could be achieved but the result I got was well suited for close quarters shooting.

Moving on to the accuracy for the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle. Since it did not come with any actual sights, I had to steel a red dot from one of my Crosman AR BB Rifles, I did not adjust the red dot hoping it would at least get shots on the pepper and it did for the most part, but it was shooting on the high side. Some of the shots did get up into the metal clip but from what I could see after shooting an additional 7 shots (all I had left in the mag), the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle was shooting groupings about 2 inch from 30 feet away. A respectable result using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s, heavier BB’s will generally get tighter groupings. I was not concerned with shot placement as I did not sight in the red dot at all before shooting.

Again, if you like shooting something like a Ruger 10/22 then you will be totally at home with the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle, it may even be somewhat cross compatible with Ruger 10/22 accessories but I am not 100% sure. I had no issues with the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle in terms of blowback operation or BB’s cycling properly for me and the trigger is really nice on it, vey similar to what you would find on a real steel Ruger 10/22. The blowback action is not overly heavy as it is just the bolt that rocks back and forth. I also found that you can easily get through the 36 round magazine on a single gas fill with gas left to spare even when shooting fast. The Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle is not a cheap Airsoft Rifle, it’s actually more money than an real steel Ruger 10/22 but once you have it, you can shoot the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle for pennies a shot and in a lot more locations. No need for a gun range or wilderness setting.

Another Field Test Shooting Video to showcase a full blowback CO2 Airsoft Pistol, in this Shooting Review I find out if the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol can perform up to par in terms of power and accuracy. I test the velocity using my Chronograph shooting five shots through it and average them out. I then test the accuracy by shooting ten rounds at a paper target and see how close we get to the center out of the box, and how tight I can get that grouping to shoot for me. If you want information like details, specifications and closer up video for the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol then make sure to watch my Table Top Video for it located here.

In the velocity portion of my Field Test Shooting Video I put a brand new 12 gram CO2 cartridge in the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol and fire off five rounds using .20 gram Airsfot BB’s. The temperature was right around room temperature for this test, so about 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. My five shot average was 351 fps with each shot reading: 364, 362, 352, 341, 336 fps. Right about what I was expecting for this CO2 Airsoft Pistol. Keep in mind it does come with a barrel extension which when installed will add some additional power/velocity but I don’t think having a long thin metal inner barrel sticking out of an Airsoft gun is really very practical.

Moving on to the accuracy portion of my Filed Test for the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, again it performed well for me. My ten shot grouping from 30 feet away with the exception of one flyer got me a 2 inch grouping which was pretty close to the center bullseye. Just a bit to the left if anything. The flyer was probably my fault as there is always going to be some human factor when performing an accuracy shooting test like this. I do try to get as stable as possible by sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. But a respectable grouping for sure even with the flyer.

One thing I can say about the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is that it is a joy to shoot, it has a lot of felt blowback recoil and the trigger is really nice being a 1911 rather short and light single action trigger. I do like 1911 pistols, this one is on the more modern side of things so if you are a purest it may not be your choice when it comes to a 1911 but in my opinion it is a really flashy looking 1911. If you want to tone it down just a bit, you could take off the compensator off which will perhaps drop a little bit of front end weight and reduce the length of it. Performance wise it is right up there with any Airsoft Pistol I have tested so keep it in mind if you’re in the market for something like this.

In this Field Test Shooting Video Review I test out the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol to find out what to expect in terms of velocity in fps, and accuracy shooting at a paper target setup 30 feet away. I have already made my Table Top review for this KJWorks Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol, so if you are interested in finding out the details specifications along with some nice 4k close up video, then make sure to watch my KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review located here.

As always, I install a brand new 12 gram CO2 cartridge and place five rounds through my chronograph using .20 gram Airstot BB’ s and average them out to see what the actual velocity is. I was able to achieve a five shot average of 349 fps. Consistency between each shot was very good, here are the actual velocities for all five shots: 348, 344, 346, 356, 351 fps. The temperate in the Replica Airguns Sea Can Shooting Range was right around 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep in mind the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol does come with a barrel extension that when installed will increase the velocity to some degree but I did not test with it as most people will not use it anyway.

Moving on to the accuracy portion of the Field Test Shooting Video, I carefully placed 10 shots on a fresh paper target setup 30 feet away. My shooting position was fairly stable with me sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. this is not perfect, but it does give us a good idea of what we can expect in general. Seven of the ten shots all placed around 1.5 inches apart near the top of the target and slightly to the left with two shots shooting a little bit lower extending the grouping to about 2.5 inches. I did have one flyer come out of the tighter grouping even lower and to the left that did extend the grouping to about 4 inches in total. The KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol does not have adjustable sights but you could dial in the hop-up to perhaps lower or higher the shot placement depending on your shooting distance.

In terms of my shooting experience for the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, it shot as expected with no issues and the blowback action is super snappy with a lot of simulated recoil feel to it. The single action trigger is not super light but light enough for sure to get well placed shots or faster paced action shots. Some Airguns just make you smile a little bit when you shoot them, and this one of those Airsoft guns. It does come in different color schemes, but I do like the tan version I was testing out in this video. If you are looking for a fairly classic Beretta M9A1 that is not too moderned out, then this version would be a good choice.

In this Indoor Field Test Shooting Review, I put the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol through its paces and find out what we can expect in terms of power and accuracy by first averaging 5 shots through my Chronograph to see what the real world velocity is in fps. I then shoot 10 rounds into a paper target setup 30 feet down range to see if I can get a decent grouping somewhere near the bullseye out of the box. If you are looking for specification and details along with some closer up video of the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol then make sure watch my Table Top Review located here.

First up I performed the power test using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. I put a brand new 12 gram CO2 in the pistol and averaged the first 5 shots which gave me a 318 fps average. The actual shoots were as follows: 331, 322, 315, 312, 308. I didn’t take notice of the temperature but in generally I keep my Sea Can at around room temperature so not overly warm or cold. There is a barrel extension that comes with this Airsoft Pistol which will give you a bit higher velocity when installed, but I did not test the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol with the barrel extension on it as mine was broken.

View fullsize

Moving on to the accuracy portion of the testing I setup a fresh paper target 30 feet away and put 10 rounds into it while sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. This gives me pretty good stability but is not perfect and there is always going to be some human factor that can effect accuracy a little bit. That said I did manage to get around a 2.5 inch 10 shot grouping with the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol that was pretty well centered hitting the target just a tad low and to the left but pretty close to center target.

All in all the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol did a good job once I took the broken off threads out of the barrel. The trigger is really nice on it, maybe even a bit light but you will get use to it over time. The blowback is snappy and the gun holds well in the hand, a real pleasure to shoot! I did notice the slide spring feels a bit weak when you release it as it does not snap into place with a lot of authority, but this does not effect the blowback action at all and the gun shot without any problems or hiccups. If you are looking for a quality Glock styled Airsoft Pistol then the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol would make a great option for sure.
