In the September issue of Airsoft Action we review two exciting new rifles. First up is the Rapid Fire, short-barrelled M4 from well-respected RIF manufacturer G&P. M4s are nothing new – but this one still has a few tricks up its sleeve. Secondly we throw the spotlight on the Dytac URX III, the awesome replica of the rifle used by Magpul guru Chris Costa. Needless to say, this is pretty special.
We also bring you our usual array of site and event reports from across the UK… and beyond, in the case of Operation Crossbow, an event held in Spain by Stirling Airsoft. Beyond that we have FilmSim – ‘Nam style – from Gunman Airsoft, and reviews of the new First & Only site in Manchester, along with OTT Adventures in North Wales and UCZ’s The Bunker down in south-west England.
