Airsoft Action Magazine

15 October 2022

After our much needed summer break and office move, WE'RE BACK! And we're back with a bang (or is that "pew"?) as we delve into even more exciting airsoft releases, leading off with Stewbacca's in-depth evaluation and review of VegaForceCompany's excellent new LAR GBBR, or the FN FAL if you'd prefer! The we're straight onto a couple of the latest pistol models this month as Bjorn delivers the result of his range testing on the EVOLUTION INTERNATIONAL WARRIOR GBB, whilst Bill digs deep into the history and airsoft-performance of the CANIK TP9 COMBAT ELITE from CYBERGUN. With the recent announcement from DIGITAL CONCEALMENT SYSTEMS on A-TACS FG Bill takes a look back at the development of this pattern, one that he's been involved with right from the outset, Jimmy details his "Ghillie on a Budget" build, and in our regular TOD column we delve into the mysteries of MilSim/Weekender-friendly sleeping bags. The Legion continue to look at "airsoft roles" as they pick apart what makes a great Team Leader, and Red Cell land their longer-term-test findings on TWELVE SMG models! And our international coverage gains even more pace this issue as we tasked Stewbacca to look into Civil Defence Training in Taiwan, getting the REAL story that's been running in the mainstream press from an airsofters perspective! Larri lands an awesome report on the recent SPEEDQB INVITATIONAL in Hong Kong, and Miguel reports back from OP SALAMANDRA in Portugal... this game looks amazing, and one that we're interested in attending next year as a group! We finish up this time with a RELOADED report on the SPECNA ARMS Mk18 AEG after two years of use, and Frenchie is back to entertain as always with his usual wry take on "all things airsoft"... It's another issue jam-packed with AEGs, GBBs, gear and opinion, so we hope you'll dive right on in and enjoy everything that the AA Crew have put together this month!
