Hi guys

I won this Tokyo Marui Mk23 gas blowback in an airsoft event. I'm now part of a team from my town and we call ourselves "Outlaw Operators" :lol: :lol: . This is a very good quality airsoft gun. It has real steel HK trademarks on it and kicks like a mule.

The specs on the gun after testing are:
1. Shoots about 120-140 rounds for each fill of green gas
2. Range is about 120-150 feet
3. I got 7/10 shots in a human sized target 70 ft away. I have poor aim :| .
4. Weight is about 2.5 lbs, about as same as the real steel version.

I have also ordered a M9 professional training pistol which should be here next week. I hope to upload pics and vids of that too. My arsenal is getting a little out of control :lol: :lol:

Regards
Sobo

Congrats Sobo!

100+ shots from one refill is commendable mileage.

By saying "ordered M9", did you mean inside India, or did you go back? We would love to see more of the AEGs in your arsenal.

Hi Sandy,

Thank you. I'm in Wisconsin right now, I ordered the M9 here from a friend for a very good price.
The bad news is that I sold my AEG to fund my new High pressured air airsoft gun and new gear. You will be seeing a lot of my posts in the coming days. It was a good decision since the AEG dont even compare when it comes to trigger response and consistency to my HPA guns.

PS: Believe it or not, my brother in India is working on starting an online airsoft store in India, can't promise anything yet, we're still writing on a very blank whiteboard.

Cool looking gun. I have been thinking about getting an airsoft gun to practice indoors with scaled down targets like these;

How is the accuracy? Will it easily shoot 1 cm groups from 3-5 meters?

The texas star is my favorite practice/ training target. The trick is to shoot the bottom most end and keep shooting at the top as it keeps revolving, a quick trigger finger and a steady hand is key.

The accuracy like I said is pretty amazing when compared to other airguns. I shot a coke can consistently from 50 ft in little wind.
