The latest from Airsoft Squared!

2011-09-29T19:37:00.001-04:00

Airsoft Squared - http://www.airsoft-squared.com - is about to roll out new awesome features and we wanted to share the information with you in a different way.

In a nutshell, you are part of a group of 8 bloggers and magazines that received the information before the actual launching. Just to be sure that you have here an exclusive news for your readers.

The new site will be live next week. We hope you will give a shout about Airsoft Squared v1.1 and spread the news.

Our objective is to connect Airsoft players and communities. We worked on 5 main points to greatly improve the service.

1. More social network features :

This is the core of Airsoft Squared. Users want to follow the activity of their network online, what they publish and comment.

- A "My Profile" button now appears in menus when you are logged in to let users access their network activity feed easily and let them interact with their network.

- We refined the wall and email notifications to now include our 2 new types of contents : News and Q&A

2. New ranking algorithm in contents lists :

We don't want Airsoft Squared to be a static collection of contents. We wanted users to easily access the most valuable and pertinent contents.

- We added ranking algorithms in our lists to display active and trending contents on top of results.

- Airsoft Squared must be an international community. That’s why we increased the pertinence for for logged users by pondering our algorithm with the language of the user to deliver the best experience for players from every country.

- The search engine will be in evidence on top of the page to let users search for quality contents in one click.

3. Redesigned Group and Events pages :

Groups and Events are key to let blogs, teams, brands, retailers interact with their community. We redesigned them entirely to let them be this space of discussion and sharing.

- Redesigned walls for Groups and Events

- It is now possible to post News and Comment threads directly from your Group or Event

4. Question & Answers section :

Users feedbacks showed that people wanted to interact, share experience and advice. We didn't want to add a simple forum on the website. We wanted something completely integrated with the interface. More interactivity between members is expected.

- Users will be able to ask questions and get answers about strategy, rules, legislation and get buying or technical advice.

- The Q&A is a section in itself but it also integrated with the groups and events "Discussion" tab.

5. News section :

Brands and medias needed a tool to get more visibility and to communicate with the Airsoft Squared members.

- Users will be able to publish announcements and breaking news.

- The News section has been designed in coherence with the groups and events "Blog" tab.

- "Featured news" will now find a place on the homepage.

New review of rail system from M14 SOCOMs.

2011-03-31T21:52:00.006-04:00

Free Float RIS for M14 SOCOMS from Evike.
Here's the link: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=25_106_284&products_id=31876

REVIEW

Ok so let's face it - we all like the M14 EBR - it's just a good looking gun. But there are a few issues. If you want to keep the cost down, you buy the KART version and it works, but it's hard to upgrade and it's just not as nice as some of the others out there. The Classic Army - nice but heavy, and not too cheap. G&G's version - lighter but expensive as well. And then you have some very expensive options out there as well that come in kit forms. So what do we do?

Well, here's one option. Turn your M14 SOCOM into a nice AEG with a SWEET rail system. I got this guy from Evike for review and I've got to say I love it!

What do you get? You get a RIS that has a full rail up top, about a 2/3 rail on the bottom, and 1/2 rails on both sides. The left side rail is at 90 degrees to the top, but the right hand side rail is angled at 45 degrees - unique and great for lasers and flash lights.

Installation is simple - it slides right over the top of your gun, so no need to take off a fore grip or make any major modifications. Simple to add on. It's also light-weight since it's made of aluminum, so that's a bonus too.

Here you can see it with a G&P red dot and a Magpul AFG.

I don't know about you guys, but I love the way this looks. Evike sells a CYMA M14 SOCOM customized with this called the "Devil" - here's the link: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=33574

Overall, I'm giving this guy a 9. The ONLY thing I'd change is to make the rails a little longer on the sides, but other than that - major win.

Review of the New APS Catapult Sights

2011-02-25T11:51:00.007-05:00

You know - I saw these a while back and thought they were pretty cool looking. Now that I've got them on my KWA SR-10, I can say I'm glad I bought them.

You can get these guys at Evike.com for $30 (for both front and rear rights) - here's the link: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=31762

Now let's take a look at these guys up close and personal.

First off, they are made of a nice metal. I don't know exactly what it is, but it's solid and the finish is quite nice as well. Secondly, they are QD sights so with a twist of the knob, they are off.

The rear sight (seen below here) is kind of like a "peep" sight you would find on a PDW or a SCAR. In general, I was not a huge fan of these, but after reviewing the WE PDW and now seeing these guys, I don't mind them.

The rear sight folds down completely (as is shown here) and then pops up as well. The knob on the right-hand side of the rear sight allows you to adjust it as needed for windage. Unfortunately, they are not really 'fully adjustable', but they will do the job for most airsofters I think.

Here you can see the front sight. This one can pop up to two different settings, meaning it can be totally down, part way up, and then completely up.

Here's a shot of them on my KWA SR-10.

And looking down the barrel.

I like these guys. They certainly are one of the most unique sights out there, and for only $30 a set, it's a pretty great deal.

Rear sight flipped up...

and flipped down.

OVERALL:

Looks - 9. Very unique and just over a great addition to an AEG.
Build - 8 - solid metal construction, the fact that they are QD is nice as well.
Function - 7 - a little disappointing that they are just partially adjustable, but they'll do the job I think.

Face Protection Reviews sponsored by Evike

2011-02-15T19:35:00.009-05:00

Hey CQB Radio fans,

I thought we'd try something a little different and start with some written reviews here on the website. First off, thanks to Evike for their support of these CQB Radio Reviews.

Now, let's get into the review. First up is the Koei Tactical Airsoft Face mask.

Here's where you can find it at Evike: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_154&products_id=33302

Ok, so what can I tell you about this mask. First off, it's pretty inexpensive at only $15.00. Secondly, it's light-weight. Thirdly, I like it. This mask has that totally expressionless look - it's like someone sees you in the woods as you approach and that person just starts to whimper.

To put it on, you slide the elastic band around the back of your head. When I put it on, I found it stayed in place very nicely and do note that the elastic is adjustable. This picture below show me with ESS goggles on, and these ones have that extra Cortex clip for extra nose coverage. If you can't tell by now, you NEED EYE PROTECTION - this mask has open holes for your eyes so you need goggles to go on top of the mask.

The mask is made of a super light-weight polycarbonate and it fit my face very comfortably. The nose holes do allow you to breathe out easily, and there is a little space in the mouth to exhale as well. Needless to say, since it's plastic and covering your entire face, you will get a little warm, but that's the price you pay for keeping safe.

You can also see in the pictures that this guy will not protect a small part of your jawline and also your neck and ears. That's true for some other face masks, but keep that in mind.

"Hello noob. I am here to eliminate you from this op."

Now this mask can take a hit of over 500 FPS up pretty close (up to 650 FPS at a normal range ~100 feet +/-). Bottom-line is that it will keep your face safe when properly combined with goggles and something to cover your neck/ears.

Ok so overall for looks - 10. I think this guy looks so intimidating - just a blank stare.
For build, I'll give this guy an 8 - the elastic seems solid enough but could be a little stronger, and I'd love to see an eye-safety insert as well, but that would jack up the price. For function - 9. If you put it on properly and combine it with other safety equipment, you'll be very happy with this mask. It's the Koei mask from Evike and here's the link again: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_154&products_id=33302

Next up is the Matrix Skull Iron Face lower-half mask. Here's the link to it: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_154&products_id=33193

Here's the packaging:

Ok, so again - you NEED goggles with this bad-boy - I hope that's pretty obvious to everyone because if it's not, you're going to need more than just a mask to protect you in life.

When I tried this on and showed my wife, she was like, "That's creepy - take it off." That's when I knew that it was a good airsoft mask. I mean let's be honest - part of what we love about airsoft is looking the part and looking like we mean business. This mask helps communicate that.

Here you can see me with the skull lower-face mask and my ESS goggles with Cortex clip as well.
Overall, from the front = total protection. The mask is lightweight and has an adjustable elastic strap to put it on.

Here you will see, like the koei mask above, that your neck and the back side of your face are not protected, so you'll need something additional to keep that part of your head safe.

One thing they could have made a little bigger are the nose holes. They kept them small for safety (so BBs don't slip through), but they do make it more likely to fog up goggles. If you have a fan in your goggles you'll be good to go.

This mask can take full-on hit at high FPS. It's a little soft so it will also absorb the BBs velocity without breaking the mask.

If you look here, you can see that without the Cortex clip on my goggles, there is a space that a BB could slip through in the front. You can force the goggles to be snug to the mask but I found that they would move. That may just be the shape of my mug, because I've seen other pics that show them pretty snug. To make them stay that way, you can also wear the mask up a little higher on your face.

Overall, a nice option for lower-face protection.

For looks, I'll give this guy a 9 - scary, intimidating. For function, a 7. The space between the goggles and mask concern me a bit but as I mentioned that might just be me. They will keep you safe though. And for build - 9 - very solid and the elastic if strong and adjustable. This is the Matrix Skull Iron Face lower-half mask and here's the link to it: http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_154&products_id=33193.

Hope you enjoyed these reviews.

New AirsoftGI sniper rifle

2011-01-22T07:45:00.001-05:00

In my opinion, this is how to test a sniper rifle. Can it shoot well at 100 feet? Great, but so can an AEG. Can it shoot well at 150-200 feet? Now we're talking.
