Airsoft Mike is back with a legendary unboxing of the Marushin Licensed CZ 75 shell-ejecting airsoft pistol. He is clearly excited to get his hands on this piece, even if the instruction manual is written almost entirely in Japanese, effectively turning the setup process into a "look at the pictures and hope for the best" adventure. The pistol itself packs a surprising amount of weight, though Mike notes that most of that heft comes from the massive metal magazine rather than the polymer body.

This airsoft is also a high-end collector's piece designed for those who value cool factor over tactical efficiency. With a fixed hop-up and a modest FPS that won't exactly strike fear into the hearts of your opponents, you definitely wouldn't want to take this into a competitive match unless you enjoy the hobby of "scavenging for tiny plastic shells in the tall grass." The main draw is the authentic shell-ejecting action, which makes you feel like an action hero right up until the moment you realize you’re paying several hundred dollars to chuck plastic bits across your living room.

True to his prediction, it only takes a few minutes of testing before Mike manages to lose one of the ten included cartridges in the abyss of his studio. He points out that the price for these replicas has skyrocketed over the years, now reaching up to $500 in some regions, making it a bit of a cheeky investment. Between the struggle of getting YouTube to push airsoft unboxing videos and the immediate loss of hardware, Mike concludes that while it might not be the most practical tool, it’s a beautiful replica for anyone who doesn't mind a game of hide-and-seek with their BB shells.
