5.11 Tactical got a video of STI International at the SHOT Show 2017. STI International is already a familiar brand in airsoft, especially for airsoft practical shooters where they have kits for their race pistols based on the STI brand made by some of the finest airsoft gunsmiths such as the Airsoft Surgeon... "The 5.11 Media Group takes a look at some new competition offerings as well as carry options from STI International."
Matt checks out the Armorer Works Custom HX2001 "Competitor" Gas Blowback Pistol for this Evike.com video... "AW Custom strives to provide Airsofters with high quality guns that come directly from the factory already upgraded. AW Custom does not simply change the finish of the gun and label it as 'custom'. Each gun that leaves AW Custom has been modified with enhanced features that truly improve the comfort, performance and efficiency of the gun as well as cosmetic upgrades that are not generally seen in an out of the box gun. Custom finishes, improved grips, sights and ergonomic modifications as well as improved performance and gas efficiency are hallmarks of the dedication Armorer Works puts into providing their clients with the highest quality Airsoft products possible.

Fully-licensed Beretta ARX-160 AEG from Elite Force Guns is reviewed by Diles46 this time... "This savage from Elite Force came to get some respect. The fully licensed Beretta ARX 160 AEG is a sleeper for sure. So much awesomeness and jaw dropping performance in one futuristic package. If you are looking to stand apart from the m4 crowd without sacrificing quality, this is the blaster for you."
DesertFox Airsoft heads to Central California for Hill 559's Operation: Frostbite milsim event... "Operation: Frostbite is a milsim 'light' style of airsoft game. There are uniform requirements and team infrastructure, such as squads with squad leaders. The field still allows players to use high capacity winding magazines and players can revive each other back into the game without being a medic class.
Hill 559 is my favorite central California field. The grassy hills make for the best squad vs squad engagements. This terrain favors the team with good leadership, communication and critical thinking."
Templar Airsoft puts out a video to talk about the new Policing & Crime Act and how it affects UK airsoft... "The Policing and Crime bill has now been given Royal assent and has become the Policing and Crime Act 2017. This new act, when it becomes law, WILL affect airsoft in the UK. However, it is not as bad as it may seem, so long as you are aware of the new law."
Here is the final blooper reel from Evike.com taken from their unedited footages in 2016. Now you can decide which one is the funniest for you but what we can suggest is that make a mash up of these reels and come up with a cool background music to go. Who knows? Evike may just reward you with something if they like what you made.
One of the interesting announcements for airsoft at the SHOT Show 2017 is the Airsoft Innovations XL Burst Grenade. How is it different from their impact grenades? Gun Gamers visit their display area to find out more... "E House and Andre swung by the ZShot booth at SHOT Show 2017 to take a look at what's new, and the folks from Airsoft Innovations had their new XL Burst sound grenade on display to check out. So we bring you a preview, and expect a review soon because they were kind enough to send us home with a couple to review!"
It has been sometime now since we saw a video with the Tokyo Marui MP5K AEG in action. The Brain Exploder got a new gameplay video with a G&G Tracer Unit installed... "Trying out a couple of new toys today. First a recent ebay pick up the Tokyo Marui MP5K a classic from days past, of course I go hard on these guns designed for 8.4v NiCads with an 11.1 lipo and somehow the gun did not fall apart in fact it was fairly crispy. The trigger has a long take up and is springy but as you see in the video you can still rapid fire. The gun also has great accuracy as do most TM guns but the low FPS combined with the 0.25g bb makes for one slow flying projectile.
The other big change is the G&G Midnight Hawk tracer unit, this little thing is awesome, screws on in place of a flashhider and lights up those BBs for the duration of the flight. I this is my new indoor go to, no more over lighting my cover and giving away my position with a flashlight just a Star Wars laser that you can clearly see bounce off your enemies, Expect more in the future."
For those who are looking for a proper optics for their airsoft shotguns, they can look into the Aimpoint Micro S-1 Shotgun Sight that was on display at the SHOT Show 2017. Larry Vickers of Vickers Tactical visits their booth to learn more about the Micro S-1... "Larry talks with John Enloe of Aimpoint about the new S1 shotgun sight."

As announced at the SHOT Show 2017, JAG Arms will be releasing their own gas shotgun series. Called the "Scattergun" series, they will be available in different versions. Airsoft GI got a prototype at their studio, and Josh gives his take on the series for this GITV episode.
John Wick 2, in which Keanu Reeves stars again, is now out in the movie theatres, and reviews say it's irresistibly good with the level of violence surely making fans of the orginal movie happy. Here is Marck to list down the guns seen in the movie that have airsoft versions in this RedWolf Airsoft TV episode.
With the John Wick: Chapter 2 movie now out, reviews of the film are coming out, with discussions about the movie itself and the guns used for those who care more about the bang-bang stuff. Now be warned that IGN has come out with a review of the movie and if you don't want to hear it since you haven't watched the movie yet, do not click on the play button or read more link.
"There’s a pivotal scene in the original John Wick where Keanu Reeves as the title character tells Michael Nyqvist’s Viggo Tarasov, a Russian crime leader against whose son Wick desires vengeance, that he’s “back.” Wick had retired, but due to no fault of his own has been dragged back into the criminal underworld.
He didn’t really mean it though. At the end he gets a new dog and walks off into the night, and if there were no John Wick: Chapter 2 that would have been the last we ever saw of John Wick."
Video from Unicorn Leah as she takes the Level 1 Handgun Course from a female instructor from the Fortress Defense Consultants... "The second installment in the Level 1 Handgun Course from Fortress Defense Consultants. Classes were split by gender, with all the women on one side with all female instructors, and the men on another range, with all male instructors. This helps to ease any gender-tension that may arise, plus acknowledges the fact that shooting/concealed carry is much different for women than it is for men. I really enjoyed having the ability to learn from female instructors, plus not having your significant other judging your every move was kind of nice, too. ;)
In this episode, Trish shows us the Master Grip and educates us on why it is important to shoot with your thumbs up. Also covered, a modified Weaver stance for increased stability when shooting.
PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! I can't emphasize this enough. If you own a handgun, or any firearm, you need to constantly PRACTICE. Other people's lives depend on your ability to SAFELY and confidently handle your gun.
I apologize if anyone thinks that this video is too slow - but I felt that it is important to show the very basics of operating a pistol, as it is part of the class. Many people own handguns and do not know how to properly hold or shoot them. Basics are extremely important and must be covered"
