mickyboy Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Hi looking to invest in a non blowback pistol, this will be my first, so I'm looking to you guys for some advice as to what's out there, I have c02 pistols, but now I fancy the green gas type, looking forward to your response mick
heroshark Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Mk23 is pretty much the best nbb system out there. Most others are relics or just crap. Cr0-Magnon, Rogerborg, EDcase and 1 other 4

Didn't you make a video on the TM LCP? How are you getting on with it? At all usable in a real skirmish? Let's face it, most of us - especially woodland skirmishers, use a sidearm far less than we expect to.

Always carry the BG but still not actually use it in a game. End of the day it's small and has one of the nicer nbb da only triggers but when you have more useful things on you don't tend to use it. I should make a concerted effort to duel my Ruger and BG one day. The mk23 is my main gun along side one or two TM gbbs. Mk for range/accurate shots and the gbb for closer intense stuff.

Presumably for more POWER... As our strange looking @heroshark stated, the MK23 (several makes) is generally regarded the standard. Keep in mind its very large with the suppressor and a blowback is arguably more fun. Yes, the power is higher than most blowbacks but the AAP01 is a good contender and range/accuracy doesn't just depend on power. Also as @Cr0-Magnon said, you don't actually use them that much really. mickyboy 1
mickyboy Posted January 18, 2022 Author Posted January 18, 2022 I like the idea of a non blowback as I won't be using it in the field, but just as a garden plinker . Just been taking a look at the AAP01 wow love it, where can I buy this.

If you are not shooting far something like the HFC USP nbb is perfectly usable and cheap. Edited January 18, 2022 by heroshark
mickyboy Posted January 18, 2022 Author Posted January 18, 2022 I have a couple of acres to shot on, no problems there, my head was thinking nbb, but after looking at the AAP01 and the fact there's plenty off add-ons I'm well tempted I dare say everywhere is out of stock plus it would have to be two-tone.
Cr0-Magnon Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Yeah, there are a few things you can do with an AAP.... VID_20210808_123131.mp4 mickyboy 1

There are lots of air pistols which are basically the same as the Airsoft version just in 4.5mm rather than 6mm. mickyboy and Paul72 1 1

There are lots of air pistols which are basically the same as the Airsoft version just in 4.5mm rather than 6mm. Of course the lead pellets are more dangerous than BB's (gotta have a good backstop) but the barrel is rifled so they're much more accurate, and I don't think the same laws apply to airguns, you might not need a two tone version?

Nope, you're in luck... https://www.airsoftdb.com/search/?q=aap-01&s=t&r=uk edit: ah, sorry, in luck for normal versions... 2 tone might be trickier. Anyway, have a poke around...
