MK-ZERO NEXT GEN CONTROL UNIT

You don’t have very far to search when looking for a MOSFET these days, with the online market being abundantly littered with them, and in all manner of configurations and abilities too. So what is a MOSFET and why do they vary so much? Well in their most basic form, a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) is mostly just a switch, and by using a small amount of current, you can send a much larger current to a different part...

How Hop units work

How Hop units work Hop-up generally speaking applies backspin to bb's to increase their range by reducing the air pressure on the bb's top side causing the plastic pellet to fall less over a given distance than it would without the spin applied, extending the effective range without increasing velocity. In Airsoft guns, this is usually implemented by a projection called bucking. The bucking momentarily disturbs the flight of the top side of the bb causing that all important backspin, which...

Helikon’s ‘Training Mini-Rig

Dave Porter reviews the Helikon's'Training Mini-Rig For a few months now I've had the pleasure of fielding Helikon's 'Training Mini-Rig', or TMR for short.

Jack Pyke Electronic Ear Defenders

Ear defenders are rarely taken into consideration for airsoft, outside of a comms solution using the earmuff and boom mic setup. Coming from a real steel shooting background, and working around the industry of industrial deafness, I have an acute appreciation for the need of hearing protection, especially given the mutual enthusiasm for pyrotechnics within airsoft. The Jack Pyke electronic ear defenders found their way into my kit bag as an optional spare piece of kit, mainly for if my...
