New NiMH GP batteries:These have been around for a couple of months now and we have tested them to death. Normally NiMH batteries and upgraded guns dont really mix as the discharge rate is to low to drive those power hungry beasts out there. Most folk have experienced a dramatic drop in fire rate on long rips, or battery death well under the advertised mah rating. The new GP cells have not only changed that but have increased the voltage and mah rating quite considerably, especially if you are running a standard Marui (tight) battery space.
The major advancement in NiMH is a massive increase in discharge rate, it is now 4 times that of even the best NiCad at a whopping 20amp. If this sounds like gobbledygook then in simple terms, you get a higher fire rate for much longer. I tested an 8.4v 1100mah small square type (same size as a 600mah) in a standard M733 and a 9.6v 3300 large type in a CA C36 upgraded to 328fps. The fire rate in both was phenomenal, and was constant with that as if using a higher voltage Nicad respectively. I put mag after mag through both and the rate did not drop at all through to the end of the charge. The 8.4v mini battery put out about 2500rnds and I gave up on the 9.6v as it passed the 6000rnd mark, it was still running at about 900-1000rnds per minute!
Also as part of the range are the sub cells, which mean you can fit a 9.6v battery in most of the range of Marui that normally only take small 8.4. One of the biggest advantages of NiMH over Nicad is that they have no charge memory there fore do not need to be discharged or become damaged due to repeated fast charging.
All in all, these are awesome batteries and give even the best Nicads on the market a serious run for their money.In stock now: 8.4v 1100mah small square type (fits M4, SIG 552, etc),

Blackhawk P226 CQC CF hip holster: We have carried these holsters for other pistols for some time so it was time to bring them in for the new Marui Sig P226. This is a quick draw retention holster that comes with a variety of settings and functions. First of all, you have a choice of belt mountings. The first is standard belt clip that is adjustable up to 2 and the second is a quick detach mount that clips over and round the belt to lock in place. Both can be further adjusted from a vertical setting or offset 20 degrees forward or to the rear. The retention bit is adjusted by a small screw and can be set to the users needs. These holsters function like a dream and once properly set; you can draw down on an opponent at lightning speed but never worry about losing your pride-and-joy in the field.
