Patrol Base Umarex G3 Gas Blowback Rifle

Stu of Patrol Base shows his love for the Umarex G3 Gas Blowback Rifle that they have in stock... "As to be expected the UMAREX H&K G3A3 Gas Blowback Replica holds true to it's real steel counter part in every way you could imagine, from the traditional HK G3 receiver to the classic H&K charging handle, ( which we know you just wanna slap ) The G3 truly is an amazing Airsoft replica gun that deserves the upmost appreciation.

Towards the front end of the gun you've got the 7.62x51 style muzzle brake / flash hider, which is secured on via a proprietary QD system, following on you've got the classic H&K ring and pin front iron sight which when used with the rear rotary iron sight provides a clear and obstruction free sight picture for a fast but simple target acquisition. The Olive Drab / Khaki handguard is constructed from a reinforced polymer which is moulded perfectly to the shape of the receiver which allows for a full hand grip along the front end which in turn provides excellent positioning manipulation and handling. Along the handguard you'll find several ports which on the real 7.62 variant provide assistance in preventing overheating.

Just above the handguard you'll find possibly what H&K are most famous for in the 'Tacticool Market'  - That being the H&K Lock and release style charging handle. Upon loading the gun, you would position the stock of the gun under your right arm to support the weight and then with your left hand pull back the charging handle and position it upward into the square pocket, then replace your magazine with a fully loaded one and either pull the charging handle down to return the gun to battery, or do what you really want to do and slap that charging handle like a real operator, with care of course."
