Specna Arms SA-C18 CORE™ Carbine Replica - Black

Specna Arms meets the expectations of clients by presenting the CORE™ line of products - an exceptional series of replicas that introduces a new quality to the market. An attractive price in combination with an innovative spring exchange system as well as high-quality materials make this replica suitable for beginners and seasoned airsoft players alike. The receiver as well as the pistol grip, were made of nylon fibre reinforced polymer. Remaining components such as the barrel, URX RIS handguard, flash hider, enlarged charging handle and tactical sling swivels were made of metal (parts made of steel include the screws, pins, shell ejection window and mock bolt carrier). The receiver bears markings and a serial number.

The replica’s parts are aligned very well and the User will not experience any loose spots between the lower and upper receiver. The use of a light polymer receiver allowed for a reduced weight, which makes it very suitable for dynamic games or long-lasting mil-sims. What’s more, fiberglass reinforcement makes the receiver also more durable than polymer and metal receivers. The replica features an ESA™ Quick Spring Exchange System.

Due to that system, it is possible to rapidly and quickly adapt the power of the replica to the conditions expected on the playing field without the necessity to have the access to a workshop or a set of special tools - all that is required is to remove the stock slide in order to gain access to the spring so that it can be removed without having to pull out or disassemble the gearbox. The advantages of the ESA™ system are hard to overstate. In the light of current internal regulations inside various groups, the system guarantees the User a varied set of possibilities and plenty of freedom.

ESA™ system allows with a minimal amount of time to exchange the main spring, thus to customize the muzzle velocity towards the area of the game in such a way so as to guarantee an ideal compromise between the effectiveness of fire and the safety for the User himself as well as other participants.

The replica is fully compatible with LiPo and LiFe batteries. The gearbox contains 8 mm slide bearings as well as shimmed steel gears based on them. The system is secured with four anti-reversal latches. A light, made of polycarbonate polymer piston is equipped with a full steel strip, in order to increase its durability. Also, implemented were a type 0 cylinder and a steel circuit-breaker, as well as a precise, rotary Hop-Up chamber. The durability of parts allows for the cooperation with M140 springs.

A carefully made Rotary Hop-Up chamber splendidly cooperates with a high-quality precision barrel with a diameter of 6.03 mm. The implementation of a precision barrel increases the replica’s range and accuracy.

One must remember to use high-quality 6 mm BBs. The replica is equipped with a 20mm top RIS handguard. The top RIS rail features a flip-up rear sight that does not collide with optoelectronic aiming devices. Due to the extendable stock with an anti-slip stock pad, it is possible to adapt the replica’s length to the body type and preferences of the User. A standard flash hider is based on a 14 mm left-handed thread, which allows the attachment of a silencer in its place.

The wires in the replica have been led to the RIS handguard, where the included in the set PEQ case can be installed, which is capable of housing a square-shaped battery.

The set does not include a battery or a charger.

To buy an airsoft weapon in the UK you must have a valid airsoft defence.

This is not a licence, it is basically just proof that you intend to buy an airsoft weapon for use in airsoft.

An airsoft defence could be a UKARA or membership with the British Airsoft Club, and various other forms of defence.

You can only obtain an airsoft defence once you are over the age of 18.

To get an airsoft defence the law is that you should play at least 3 games of airsoft, and that you must have been playing for at least two months.

You can still buy an airsoft gun without a defence, provided you are 18 or older. If you choose to do this we would, by law, two tone (paint in a bright colour) parts of your chosen weapon. This is because an airsoft gun is considered a RIF aka Realistic Imitation Firearm, because they are so close to the real steel, whereas when you paint parts of it in a bright colour it becomes an IF aka Imitation Firearm. The reason being that the bright colours make it look less realistic to the public, and therefor less likely to be mistaken as real, were it to be used for any other purpose than airsoft.

When you order a gun from us you will need to add your defence details in the comments section of the cart. If you do not have a defence you will need to write the colour that you wish to be used for two toning your airsoft weapon.

Here is what's stated in the VCRA (Violent Crime Reduction) Act:

For airsoft skirmishing, the Association of British Airsoft is putting in place arrangements to allow retailers to check that individual purchasers are members of a genuine skirmishing club or site. The key elements of these arrangements are:
1. new players must play at least 3 (three) times in a period of not less than two months before being offered membership
2. membership cards with a photograph and recognised format will be issued for production to retailers
3. A central database will be set up for retailers to cross-check a purchaser’s details
4. member’s entry on the database will be deleted if unused for 12 months.
The defence for airsoft skirmishing can apply to individual players because their purchase of realistic imitation firearms for this purpose is considered part of the “holding” of a skirmishing event.
