As expected, Mach Sakai also checks out the compact Tokyo Marui SAIGA-12 SBS Gas Blowback Shotgun. This airsoft replica features a realistic blowback action and a compact design, making it ideal for CQB and close-range engagements. The SAIGA 12 SBS comes with a comprehensive package, including an instruction manual, and features a durable construction and a realistic weight and feel. The shotgun has a fixed front sight and a rear sight, as well as a handguard for stability. The charging handle is located on the top of the receiver, and the magazine can be removed by pressing a button and pulling it out.
The SAIGA 12 SBS has a semi-auto and full-auto firing mode, and the trigger pull is smooth and consistent. The stock is fixed and made of polymer, and the shotgun can be disassembled for cleaning and maintenance. The SAIGA 12 SBS is powered by green gas and has a good gas efficiency. The muzzle velocity is measured at 0.2g and 0.25g, and the firing sound is realistic.
He tested it a variety of shooting scenarios, including the Steel Challenge Roundabout and the APS Cup Bullseye. The shotgun performed well in all of these tests, and the accuracy was good at 20, 30, and 40 meters to check for accuracy.
