INSIDE AIRSOFT
VX-9: CONCEPT TO REALITY
“ROSS TELLS ME THAT THE VX-9 WILL BE AVAILABLE IN A RANGE OF DIFFERENT
FINISHES AND WILL BE SOLD EITHER AS A SINGLE, OR AS A “MATCHED PAIR” WITH
SEQUENTIAL SERIAL NUMBERS, WHICH SOUNDS SUPER-COOL. I’LL REPORT BACK
HAVING SEEN THEM IN THE FLESH AT IWA, WITH A FULL RANGE REPORT SHORTLY
AFTER, SO WATCH THIS SPACE!”
internally “tweaked” to make sure it
attaches as smoothly and as efficiently
as possible; both inner and outer barrel
threads to extend the barrel have been
addressed, with a custom moulded and
designed suppressor made “just so” so
that the VX-9 recoils correctly. Now I don’t
know about you, but this level of attention
to detail impresses the heck out of me!
What I am loving
about the airsoft
industry at the moment
is that more than ever
manufacturers are
ploughing their own
furrows in terms of
innovation and design.
When you add that
we, as players, are not
content these days to
accept something that
simply “looks like” a
particular weapon, but
also want the best levels
of performance from
it, then those same
manufacturers are giving
us just that, as standard,
from the moment we lift
our newest airsoft pistol
or rifle from the box!
They are taking
the opportunity to
make what people
want but also what
they don’t know they
want, thinking quite
literally outside the
box! Is it the place of
the manufacturer to open new areas for
models? I believe it is and by creating the
VX-9, taking inspiration from other areas
that we all love, VORSK have done this,
and I can’ wait to get my hands on one!
In closing, Ross tells me that the VX-9
will be available in a range of different
finishes and will be sold either as a single,
or as a “matched pair” with sequential
serial numbers, which sounds super-cool.
I’ll report back having seen them in the
flesh at IWA, with a full range report
shortly after, so watch this space! AA
