The Maruzen CA870 TAC10 airsoft shotgun that Mack Sakai reviews is a 2026 reissue, maintaining its reputation as a compact and lightweight option for players. He notes its updated features, including M-LOK rail compatibility for those who enjoy attaching lights and gadgets until the gun is barely visible. At about 1.4kg, it is easy to handle, though the front sight requires a bit of DIY involving double-sided tape and a steady hand.

Airsoft Mike is back at it again, finally replacing a broken shotgun from years ago with two shiny new toys: the APS CAM870 Mark II and Mark III. Whilst they look like twins on the outside with their fancy wood stocks and metal bodies, they have very different personalities when it comes to eating CO2.

The Maruzen M1100 BV makes a return in 2026, offering enthusiasts a chance to own this gas-powered semi-automatic shotgun once again and Mach Sakai gets his hands on one. The replica mimics a 20-gauge shotgun rather than the more common 12-gauge, resulting in a slightly slimmer and more manageable profile. It features a fiberglass-reinforced resin construction that feels sturdy in the hand, though users might want to add their own front sight since it doesn't come with one out of the box.

Korean Gunster compares two popular airsoft versions: the APS CAM870 and the Golden Eagle M870. The APS model is for the purists who enjoy "kimjang," a tedious but rewarding process of hand-loading shells with CO2, BBs, and paper wads. It offers high realism and authentic materials but comes with a price tag that might make your wallet weep.

Explosive Enterprises features the  Tokyo Marui M870 gas shotgun which is akin to an expensive kitchen gadget you bought with high hopes: it looks the part and has some neat tricks, but using it daily reveals some quirks. On paper, it offers a choice between firing three or six BBs at once, utilizing a convenient gas tank hidden in the stock. While it feels solid enough, the balance is a little unusual, and the plastic furniture reminds you that it isn't quite a real-steel firearm.

Molcolm brings out the Tokyo Marui SAIGA-12K GBB out to play at the Komano Park Killhouse. This gas blowback shotgun fires three BBs simultaneously, making it a powerful choice for close-quarters combat. He demonstrates the performance of the semi-automatic weapon as they navigate the indoor arena. The footage highlights the shotgun's ability to quickly suppress and eliminate opponents through its rapid fire and wide spread.

Matt says airsoft shotguns remain a viable choice for players in 2026 in this Evike video, though their utility depends largely on the environment and the user's playstyle. Whilst they do not match the long-range precision of airsoft rifles, multi-shot gas shotguns offer an advantage in close-quarters combat by increasing the probability of a hit per trigger pull.

Suzuki checks the Golden Eagle M870 CO2 gas shotgun for its performance and consistency in a shooting range test. The CO2 system allows for stable firing in cold weather (around 16°C), providing over 100 shots per cartridge after an initial 20-shot break-in period. The reviewer found that heavier 0.28g BBs worked best for the 3-shot mode due to the strong hop-up effect.

Here is what SK Airsoft says about the Tokyo Marui Saiga 12 SBS, a gas blowback airsoft shotgun based on the short-barreled tactical conversion of the AK-derived Saiga 12. It is a unique model, being the only semi-automatic, triple-shot, magazine-fed gas blowback shotgun available, a replica that took five years to develop. The gun is constructed from a zinc/aluminum alloy, steel, and polymer, weighing about 3.5 kg.

Timerzanov Airsoft got the Golden Eagle M8872 Co2 Shotgun to check out for this video review... "Hello everyone! This week I'm reviewing a CO2-powered pump-action shotgun replica from Golden Eagle. Here's the M8872, a Remington 870-style replica. So, how does this model compare to gas-powered versions? Well, that's what I'm going to show you in this video. Sit back and enjoy!
