Flashaholic has posted a YouTube video review of the Nitecore Tini 2. This is an itty bitty light for your keychain (or whatever you fancy attaching it to) with an OLED display, type C USB charging port, 500 lumens output with a dual switch. We could go on and on about lumens as every manufacturer quotes big numbers with differing results, but it is indeed small and very bright.
What has gold accessories, dates back to the 1945 and comes in a collector’s box? There’s a joke there somewhere, but whilst figure out a punchline checkout Airsoft Mike’s look at the limited edition ICS M1 Garand.

The guys at AMNB have posted a review of the much loved EXA pistol from RedWolf. Based on the VFC pistol, it’s popular and has certainly been doing the media rounds during lockdown! Checkout their review for the full lowdown on this new pocket rocket.
This gun took the RWA crew five years to make! Was it worth it?
We got teased about this gun since summer of 2020 and nobody was actually 100% sure which model it will be, as the guys at RWA kept it as a secret not telling a single word about the model itself till they started to tease the release in mid-December.

BB2k Airsoft have awesome Facebook and YouTube pages and have had the chance to visit Umarex at IWA. They’ve also shared photos of Umarex’s HK MG4 AEG. Checkout their pages and like and subscribe to them for more updates.
Whilst IWA 2021 isn’t quite what everyone hoped this year for the obvious reasons that doesn’t mean the news and new releases aren’t coming. Umarex have posted a video covering the highlights of their upcoming new products. This covers items outside of their airsoft lineup including paintball calibers, however these rubberised calibers tend to provide interest in 6mm versions. Lets face it these are interesting ideas and designs.
BB2K Airsoft have posted a YouTube video of their experiences at the Umarex booth at IWA2021 and the new releases on the way. There’s the HK MG4 and a rather nice M29 revolver too. Please don’t forget to like and subscribe to their channel.

Airsoft International has launched volume 16 issue 12 of their magazine.
Welcome to Volume 16, Issue 12 of Airsoft International Magazine. So what do we have for you this month, well there have been some great rifles released over lockdown and we thought we’d give you a roundup of those so once the shops are open you know what you are looking for. We have even marked when the full reviews were done for you so you can go back or order the original for a more in-depth look. We bring you gear from Helikon and their mini training rig, a roundup of what 5.11 are bringing out for 2021, we have a great plate carrier called The Sherp from Grey Shop and Vertx launch a new range of gloves which are worth a look. Our resident sniper turns into the crafty sniper this issue showing you how to build your own ghillie suit for the new season and our gear up section this issue features Weapon 762 and their fantastically priced kit. Lastly we want to bring to your attention the Swatcom headset from Talking Headsets. Real World brands at affordable prices are few and far between especially when it comes to headsets but these are amazing and well worth a look.
Out now from our website www.ai-mag.com and available from newsagents, Airsoft shops and digitally through pocketmags.com from 11th March 2021.

Combat King Monthly have a new review of the recent RA-Tech SCAR-SC release.
New Gun Review
RA-Tech SCAR-SCEarn ($) in points! Details Earn ($) in points!
Details Gap…The FN Herstal “SOF Combat Assault Rifle”, aka. SCAR, is widely used by manyspecial forces. Its unique styling and outstanding performance that makes it one of the most successful infantry weapons in the world. The toy gun business also noticed it and made lots of SCAR replicas in the past. Now, the RA-Tech of Taiwan join in the SCAR production line, and released the SCAR-SC lately…

They have also released the 2021 Toy Consumers/Buying guide which features some awesome bits of kit including kits from Arrow Arms, APS and EMG.
I appreciate it’s not in English, but the images are great and I still remember the time when here in the UK all we could get were the Eastern Airsoft magazines and we had to pick through the images and basic translations to see what was coming!
If you’re curious how the AAP-01 looks with custom parts and how easy they are to fit, then this new video from Jeff the KID should be of interest. Parts used in this one include Narcos Airsoft alumimium CNC parts for the Action Army AAP01.
Evike have posted a review of the EMG Kel-Tec RDB17. Now to be fair EMG is their own brand and they are a retailer, that’s not a suggestion of any issue just keeping things open! The EMG branded RDB17 is made by ARES so you know where the quality comes from and the licensing and legalised markings are via Evike.
Kel-Tec’s products (and their replicas) are often a diversion from accepted conventional design and quite desirable. In the case of an Airsoft AEG, bullpup designs make a heap of sense.
The RDB17 is due out at the end of March and currently on pre-order fr 319USD.
