We’ve got yet another box on the table today for our August Mystery Unboxing. It took a while to arrive, but it was absolutely worth the wait. We’re diving into four highly anticipated products across the BB, Pellet, and Airsoft categories.
Here is a quick first look at what’s hitting the review table soon!
First out of the box is the Marksman 1018. This is a very budget-friendly (around $50), 1911-inspired spring-actuated pistol. It features fiber-optic sights on the front and back, making it an excellent, quiet option for basement or backyard plinking. While it can technically shoot darts and bolts, we'll be sticking to BBs and pellets for our tests.
Next up is a beauty from Umarex, the Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS. If you love ultra-realistic replicas, this is it. It features a heavy full-metal slide spring, a recessed barrel, and classic white dot sights. The "MOS" means it comes ready with all the mounting plates you need to attach your favorite red dot sights. It runs on a full-size, drop-out 17-round metal magazine and utilizes a full blowback system for ultra realistic blowback operation.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Semi-auto full blowback, single CO2 cartridge
I'm incredibly excited to finally do a proper field test on this one. This is a replacement for a previous model that had a leaky loading valve. This gas-operated, "Mares Leg" style lever-action rifle is heavily modernized. It features a gorgeous real wood stock, an enlarged lever loop, a Picatinny top rail, an M-LOK handguard for accessories, and a mock suppressor on the front.
Finally, we have an absolute powerhouse in a tiny package: the Specna Arms SA-E10 PDW. This is a super-compact AR-style AEG with a polymer-metal build and a telescopic stock. Specna Arms goes above and beyond with the box contents on this one. Along with the rifle, you get two S-MAG mid-cap magazines, an additional M90 drop-in spring to easily lower your FPS for indoor fields, a Deans adapter, and a vertical foregrip.
Basic Specifications:
Action: Electric (AEG) with Pre-installed MOSFET
Capacity: Includes two 125-round mid-cap S-MAG magazines
Velocity: 375-390 FPS (Drops to ~310-320 FPS with included M90 spring)
Length: Minimum 505 mm (approx. 19.8 inches)
Inner Barrel: 160 mm precision 6.03mm barrel
Stay tuned to the Replica Airguns channel, as I'll be doing dedicated tabletop and field test shooting videos for all of these very soon.
I was away for a bit on a well needed vacation in Kona Hawaii but I’m back now and ready to dive back into things so get ready for more reviews! In this December Massive Mystery Unboxing, I crack open a stack of newer Airsoft and BB guns that landed in the Replica Airguns inventory. Full shooting reviews are coming later – this is your quick spec rundown so you can see what’s what at a glance.
