aRick proudly presents another custom work from Bunny Workshop, the Bunny Custom Tactical AKM GBB Rifle... "Full steel and wood construction, the GHK AKM is hands down the best gas blowback AK on the market today as of this writing. The blowback performance is solid and quite impressive. One look at the photos and you'll see why our team of staff were wow'd by it's looks at first sight.

AK airsoft lovers who have been looking forward to a gas blowback version of the AK Tactical can now save up to get it from Hephaeustus Custom as WGC Shop are now taking pre-orders for the Hephaestus Custom Tactical AK Gen II. This custom gas blowback AK has the GHK as the base gun and customised even further to give an even better performance the AK Tactical look. Price for this baby? It's US$698.00.

Bunny Workshop announced that the Hephaestus Custom's new release, the Top Rail for the GHK AK Series has been released and they have it in stock. The product is CNC'D aluminium with back-up rear sight in case you don't need to mount your optics. A video on how to install this is shown below and you can order this for US$55.00.

Whilst designated as Thunder HTs-14 by Hephaestus Custom, everybody will call this the OC-14 "Groza" ("Thunderstorm") as it is indeed patterned after the bullpup AK even the number and name designation will give you an idea. The video shows it being test fired and since this is in cooperation with GHK airsoft, this got the pedigree of the hard-kick gas blowbacks from GHK.

As always, our content partner, Public Enemy, have given us a heads-up from what is the opposite part of the world. Their latest feed is a new about something new that will come from Hephaestus Custom of Hong Kong and GHK Airsoft of Taiwan. No information yet, and the teaser video doesn't reveal anything. But their combination is a good since they provide even better improvements in airsoft gas blowbacks as evidenced in the Hephaestus Custom GHK AK GBB Rife Series.

If you don't know what makes these charging handles made for AK gas blowbacks, you can watch the video of Public Enemy to show you how it works. Hephaestus decided to make this available as a kit to existing AK GBB owners to install rather than buy a completed one with a video below showing you how it gets installed.
