Dave from our Texas store recently took a quick trip out to our newest store location to see how the progress is coming along! It isn’t easy work turning a shipping container into an airsoft store either, click past the jump and we’ll break down what we still have left to do. While he was there, he poked around the swap meet at D14 Airsoft to see what he could find!

Have you ever wondered about how we test the durability of an airsoft gun? Wonder no more as we try to break the new Lancer Tactical Gen 2 guns!
Lancer Tactical has made a name in airsoft over the past few years as the most affordable and competitive guns on the market. They are also known to be very fragile as well. The Gen 2 Lancer Tactical M4’s have had quite a few improvements. Here are a few to list off!
We performed a series of tests to see how durable these new guns are!
See the results below!
These tests are not practical at all. We went the extreme to push the guns to its limits. You can imagine a more practical situations. Like the gun slipping out of your hands or it starts raining when you are playing. Maybe even accidentally stepping on the gun or a very over greased gearbox. We were being very goofy in this video. This wasn’t really testing the actual performance of the gun. This video does prove that the new Lancer Tactical Gen 2 M4’s can take beating.

We’re back with another edition of Airsoft Basics, our featured series here on the Airsoft GI TV Blog where we teach you some of the things you need to know in order to step up your game as a new airsofter. Today’s topic is setting up your gear to accomplish the Recon role when you are out playing games. This means getting outfitted the right way so you can call in enemy positions, hit and run the enemy, and stay high speed and low drag!
As always, before we begin, it’s important to note that we’re basing this advice on personal experience playing airsoft. This is by no means to be construed as a be-all-end-all way to set up your gear. As with most things in the hobby of airsoft, Personal experience makes a big difference in how you’ll set up your gear versus someone else. Additionally, while it’s not the advice given in this article, sometimes people will make concessions for the sake of looking good or because it’s accurate to an impression-based kit they are trying to set up. All of these are perfectly valid, and it’s going to be up to you to decide how you want to do it.

In recent years, MOSFETs have become somewhat of a staple in airsoft guns. Companies have been slowly incorporating MOSFETs into all of guns. Now-a-days you expect to hear them included with Krytac, VFC, Classic Army, and G&G. One you wouldn’t think of is King Arms. They have just released their KA TWS Ultra Grade M4 Series. Here are some of the features!
External Build:
Internal Build:
All of the internals will be the same across all models (given the FPS will vary due to size differences). We test fired the Type 3 Model with an 11.1V 20C Battery. We found the trigger response to be very snappy. After shooting about 100 rounds, the MOSFET kicked in and prevented the gun from burning out. The 11.1V battery proved to be too much for the gun, but the MOSFET prevented any damage the gun could have taken. With a 7.4V 20C Battery and a 9.6V 1600mAh battery, the gun performed flawlessly. The gun was very light weight, which made it easier to manage. I did find that the Troy style stock would dig into the had grabbing the pistol grip when completely collapsed, but had no problems when in every other position. The standard internals do leave room for improvement in terms of performance, but they are still of good quality and will perform very well for a while. With the quick change spring system, you can bring the gun up to 400FPS and take it outdoors. Over all, this series of guns are a very good and affordable choice for a starting gun.
