A care guide episode, especially in maintaining CO2-powered 1911 airsoft pistols, from Jonathan Higgs of Airsoftology... "Want to know the tips on how to keep your CO2 pistol, like the Elite Force 1911 series, running strong for a long time? We cover the simple steps on a new Red Jacket 1911 in this episode of Airsoftology Tech Tips."

Airsoftology's Jonathan Higgs puts on a headset, a Code Red CQB Headset, which he recommends as an affordable step up in radio comms for airsoft players. They actually have used the headset for a year now in indoor and outdoor airsoft skirmishes, and they like it due to the availability of adapters for the radio connectors so it can be used with different radio brands. More features of this headset as described by Jonathan in the video below:

Airsoftology got the Evike.com's SOCOM-47 Challenge Kit, a more affordable SR-47 conversion kit in the market. This kit allows you to convert your M4 AEG to accept AK AEG magazines... "Time to dust off those tech skills and turn your plain old M4 into something unique! We get our hands dirty and take on Evike's SOCOM-47 Challenge Kit... but did we rise to the occasion?

We're back at the SHOT Show 2014 with Jonathan Higgs of Airsoftology showing us the Inokatsu 100th Anniversary Colt 1911 airsoft pistol. As much as the detailing and quality of the product can be rarely faulted, the concern is the pricing which makes this airsoft pistol more expensive than the real 1911. Expensive or not, better watch Jonathan explains more about this product.

Previously, we have watched the LBX Tactical 0094 Plate Carrier which was compared to the LBT 6094 Plate Carrier which is the high end real world Plate Carrier. We all know that LBT owns LBX Tactical to make their products more airsoft friendly and still carry the LBT Quality, how does Jonathan Higgs of Airsoftology find this affordable 0094?... "Does the new LBX 0094 Speed Draw Carrier strike the perfect balance of price and quality for an airsoft plate carrier?"

Bioval, ever since it got acquired by the "Company-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named" in 2010, was relatively quite and we have not heard much from the maker of bio bbs. Now, they are making a comeback in the US. Airsoftology gets back to the product which they reviewed years back... "Bioval BBs are returning to the US market in 2014 alongside of some more affordable options. Watch and see why we chose to revisit the product that was our first review back in 2008."

Airsoftology gives us a good reason why airsoft players should pay attention to Echo1's Platinum M4 Series. Whilst there are many good and affordable AEGs from Echo1, the Platinum M4s are one of their best and topline AEGs that perform well and packaged properly in cooperation with Vega Force Company (VFC)... "Could the Echo1 Platinum Custom rifle be one of the best values in airsoft that few people have heard about? Watch and let us know what you think."

Another episode of The Gear Guide by Airsoftology featuring the HK UMP45 Elite sold by Elite Force Guns. This is the higher end version which we believe the OEM is Ares Airsoft, Jonathan Higgs tells us more about this AEG... "Is the airsoft HK UMP45 as effective in CQB as its real-steel brother? We put it to the test and find out."

Small and simple tools really make a difference. Jonathan Higgs explains one tool that should be part in the kit of any Gas Blowback Owner: the Evike.com Steel CNC Triple Airsoft GBB Gas Valve Key Tool. Whether tweaking or maintaining your gas blowback, he recommends this tool which will fit a majority of the airsoft gas valves available in the market these days.

Two videos on the Walther PPQ airsoft pistol from Elite Force Guns made by Airsoftology. The first one is a review of the pistol with the question if this is the best US$100 pistol. The other one is hacking the pistol to make it fire full auto. Now that's a cool option if you want full auto firing pistols. Watch the videos as embedded below:
