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.
It’s that time again, another Mystery Box unboxing for the Replica Airguns channel. As usual, no idea what’s inside going in, but this one lines up right after SHOT Show season, which usually means some interesting gear starts showing up.
This isn’t a full review, just a first look at what came in. Detailed Table Top and Field Test videos will follow once everything gets properly looked at and tested.
What’s in the Box?
This month’s box included three very different airsoft products:
It also came with a barrel extension, but it arrived with damaged threads. Not a huge loss since those extensions tend to be fragile anyway and aren’t essential for most users.
Takeaway: If you're looking for a Glock-style platform without licensing restrictions, this fits the role well. Likely compatible with some Glock holsters depending on fit.
Battery-powered box magazine with hopper feed system
Integrated bipod and carry handle
Multiple Picatinny rails
Includes extra spring and accessories
The feeding system and internal layout aren’t immediately obvious, it’s one of those guns that clearly requires some setup and understanding before use.
Takeaway: This is not a casual backyard plinker. It’s a full-on support weapon platform, something you’d expect in a tactical or milsim environment.
A much more approachable and practical option compared to the F249.
First Impressions:
AR-style AEG platform
Mostly polymer construction with some metal components
Adjustable stock (buffer tube style)
Picatinny rails and M-LOK compatibility
Comes with both orange and black flash hiders
Includes extra spring (M90) for velocity tuning
Dean’s connector
Takeaway: This looks like an entry-level to mid-tier rifle, compact, lightweight, and ideal for someone getting into Airsoft or wanting a versatile CQB setup.
Overall Thoughts
This box had a good mix:
Pistol platform (KP-13) → familiar, practical
Entry-level rifle (SA-F04) → accessible and versatile
Heavy support weapon (SA-F249) → niche, but very cool
The F249 clearly stole the show just based on size and complexity, but the SA-F04 is probably the one most people would actually use regularly.
What’s Next?
As usual:
Tabletop reviews will come first (closer look, specs, handling)
Field test shooting videos are stacking up and coming next
Where to Find These
If you're in Canada, these should be available through:
In this Mystery Box Unboxing Video I take a look at three Airsoft products, two pistols from Umarex and two AEG Airsoft Rifles from Specna Arms. As this is essentially an Unboxing Preview Video, I don’t go into a lot of detail for each item as this is my first real exposure to these items for the most part. I will be making full Table Top and Field Test Video for each item once I get to know them a bit better and share all the specifications and features along with shooting performance.
Starting with the Umarex products, I did get the chance to checkout the Umarex Smith & Wesson 629 CO2 Airsoft Revolver at this years SHOT Show, and it is a very solid shell loading 44 Magnum styled Revolver with full Smith and Wesson licensing. From what I remember this item may only come in the Airsoft version at the time of this review and it does have a claimed velocity of 500 which may be a bit hot for Airsoft games but it would be a lot of fun shooting at pop cans and the likes.
The second Umarex products is a pretty basic mostly clear plastic Spring Powered Beretta 92 FS Airsoft Pistol. It is fairly light weight with it’s mostly all plastic construction and the velocity is also on the lower side at only around 250 fps. Since it is distributed by Umarex it carries the Beretta licensing which is nice and all, but on a clear plastic gun I am not sure if is really a major feature.
The first Airsoft Rifle out of the Mystery Box was the Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle which is your standard AR configuration, mine was the shorter barrel version but it does come in a longer barrel version as well. The top and bottom receiver and most of the outer components are going to be Nylon Fiber Reinforced Plastic. It does include features like Rotational Hop Up Chamber, SA ETU™ Optical Electronic System Optimizes for improved trigger response and Quick Spring Change System to name a few.
Something I don’t see too often are Pink Assault Rifles! So it was nice to get the pink version of the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle. It does come in a Black and Tan version along with an all Black configuration. It’s really a great looking AEG Airsoft Rifle in any color you decide to go with, and I like the compact feel it has with lots of options for mounting accessories on the top bottom and side rails. You can get going right away using the included pop-up front and rear sights or throw a red dot or optical sight on it.
Another box showed up at my door and this time I had no idea what was inside it, I asked the boys in the warehouse to surprise me and send some new product as I was low on review items, and in a couple of days later this tall somewhat large box showed up. In this Replica Airguns June Mystery Box Unboxing Video I open the box and take a look at what’s inside. I recommend you just watch the video and enjoy the suspense with me, but if you want to cheat and find out now, then look below at quick breakdown of each item…
I love making these Mystery Box Unboxing Videos as many of the items inside are actually real mysteries to me, some I may have an idea of but even these items are new to me so it’s fun to open them up and check them all out. In this October 2023 Mystery Box Video I checkout 9 items ranging from AEG Airsoft Rifles to Airsoft , BB and Pellet Pistols. There is even a new Steel BB product from Sig Sauer that is a compact rifle with a 3 round burst option when shooting.
In this Replica Airguns Unboxing Video I take a look at 6 Airguns consisting of 2 Paintball Pistols, 3 Airsoft Rifles and one Pellet Rifle. This is not a full review in any way but is rather a preview of what i will be doing full Reviews for over the next several weeks.
As the title suggest this a video about a Huge Mystery Box so I am not going to say what’s in it, I can say that their are 4 main products mostly rifles per-say. One is a Futuristic Full Auto BB Rifle, one is a Paintball Shotgun, One is an AEG Airsoft Rifle and one is a Replica Break Barrel Pellet Rifle.
So I have a lot of variety here to show everyone! I did absolutely zero research on any of the products I show in this video since like you I had no real idea what was inside other than how many and that most where rifle based.
Enjoy finding out what new products I will be reviewing over the next month with dedicated Table Top and Field Test Shooting videos.
