Airsoft Action April 2020 | Page 18

EVENT REPORT #NOTGOINGTOIWA 2020 www.lctairsoft.com LCT are relatively new friends to Airsoft Action but have really found a place in the hearts of the OPFOR community with their fabulous range of Russian and Eastern European models! I got online with Bella over in Tawian to find out just what LCT have to wow us with in the coming year! “The annual hot sale items are the Z series parts, Z series AEG, RPK drum magazine. The traditional wooden LCK can now be modified to a modern tactical style, and players will have more choice to customize their own AEG to their own individual taste! “First, pick up the Z series parts which are your favorites and directly install on LCT AEG and GHK GBB, you don’t need to do any further work. The Z series includes flash hiders, silencers, upper and lower handguards, fore grips, and buttstocks. The high-quality metal craft will satisfy your need, and free for you to customize as you like! “Second, there are four types of Z series AEG for you to choose from, and internally they can be upgraded to Quick Spring Change Gearbox!! The models are ZKS- 74M AEG, ZKS-74UN AEG, ZK-104 AEG, and ZP-19-01 AEG. “Third, the RPK 2000rd Full Metal Electric Winding Drum Magazine; this has a realistic appearance, full steel mag catch, is 100% solid and 100% durable. It’s absolutely amazing after bluing and looks great on the classic wood version AEG!! “The very latest products will be launched in the coming year, and the first of these is the much- anticipated LCK-16 which is the latest light machine gun AEG with a more modern tactical drum magazine. Of course, it comes with a QD gearbox, so you must have it for your own, especially for those who love Russia series models! “Lastly the LK33 series has four new models and will have the EBB as well. The internal is also with the QD gearbox. The related accessory parts will feature two kinds of magazines, which are the 20rds and 40rds as you would find on the real firearms, along with wide and slim handguards, bipod and retractable butt stock which will also be available to purchase soon.” www.uk.redwolfairsoft.com RedWolf Airsoft (RWA) really needs no introduction as they always seem to be at the cutting edge of the airsoft industry. Known both as a retailer and an innovator of new products, RedWolf have a following that is simply massive and the sheer range of what they offer is mind-blowing! I spoke to Danny at RedWolf UK to find out “what will happen next”! “This year at IWA 2020, our focus was to be on two major product concepts and the first of these is the RWA Battle Arms Development 556-LW and RWA Battle Arms Development SBR AEG. This is our latest M4 platform AEG that we build 18 APRIL 2020 from the ground up with the following features… “Externally it will come with a host of B.A.D. licensed parts, such as the outer barrel, gas block, receiver, bolt release, ambidextrous selector, mock bolt, pistol grip, and VERT Stock. In addition, there will also be parts from Fortis Manufacturing, including a Fortis 556 Muzzle Brake, Fortis Switch Rail M-Lok and both models will benefit from a built-in RWA Edition ASTER ECU by GATE Electronics with pre-set binary flat-face trigger feature and more. “Internally as well, they will come with an extended battery tube and stock cover to cover a wide range of battery selections in the market, standard V2 Gearbox for future upgrades, a rotary style hop-up unit, and they’ll be standardized with T-Plug connection. “All in all these will be stunning looking AEGs with the performance to match, and I am certain that customers will be more than satisfied when they buy one! “The second focus area is that of the RWA Agency Arms EXA Pistol. The EXA Slide features aggressive top serrations, an enlarged top window for C-Port barrels, and side windows, and it gives the pistol a really strong look as well as great levels of performance. “The overall package will include a fully licensed slide, barrel and trigger (Syndicate) by Agency Arms, fully licensed modified Timberwolf Lower by Lone Wolf Distribution, pre-installed blacked-out rear and red fibre front sight and those extra serrations for various manipulation techniques. “There will also be a Syndicate (Agency Arms) adjustable flat face polymer trigger and the pistol will come with two back straps for different hand sizes, along with a polymer magwell for ease of speed reload. This model will be fully compatible with Umarex Glock 17 Gen 3 internals for those that like to work further on what is already a stunning pistol. “These models would have been our main focus and debuts for this year’s IWA but of course, we will have many more to come and 2020 is already looking to be another very strong year both for our own projects and those that we work on constantly with our brand partners. “
