In this EOTech review by Garand Thumb, who loves EOTech due to is reticles, will have the company redeemed itself?
DesertFox Airsoft posts the trailer for Uprising 3, a 24-hour event that took place last 8 April 2017 at Hill 559 in Californina.

There are two sides to every BB battle, in the next 60 Millimeters we cover the other side."
Landwarrior Airsoft got some new stock from Nuprol, and they have something for dog owners to love, dog vests... "We have received more new stock from Nuprol, including the extra large gun cases, perfect for those long sniper rifles you want to keep safe, or for carrying more than one rifle at a time.
For the dog owners out there Nuprol are now offering a dog harness in various colours and 2 sizes, featuring grab handles, thick straps with quick release clips, Molle loops for additional pouches, a padded collar and a line of velcro along the spine.

Want a plate carrier with all the pouches included? The Nuprol RTG tactical vest is just that, a rig that comes with all the pouches you need to get going, and space to add more in the future!"
It looks like Tactical Shirts Airsoft fell in love with the Specna Arms SA-H01 AEG. This is of course, similar to the look of the HK416C that usually comes with a Lipo 7.4v 1200Mah Battery.

Watch the video to see how it performs in this game.

The new trend, YouTubers reading awful or mean comments of their videos. Airsoft GI Uncut made theirs, so watch and cringe as they read the comments that sometimes can lead to abandonment of civil discourse online...
