Airsoft Action - September 2023
Welcome to another full-to-the-brim copy of AIRSOFT ACTION, and to kick things off this month we’ve gone a bit “polymer crazy” as we focus on THREE new models, all of which are polymer-bodied! Headlining this time is our “take” on the final production version of the VORSK VMP-1, and Jimmy, Ben and Bill have all been hammering this new GBB to find out if the reality lives up to the promise (spoiler… it DOES!). Bill then gets properly involved with the G&G FAR 556 (yes, a FOLDING AR!) and the latest entry-level AEG from HUNTSMAN TACTICAL that’s sure to please many players on a budget! Miguel lands his report on the VIPER VX GEN2 Plate Carrier after some heavy use and abuse, the LEGION get into their favourite Multicam kit as a new sequence of THE CAGE commences, and Stewbacca, ably assisted by Military Anny, continues to delve “Inside Airsoft”, meeting some of the people behind the "names" as they visit RA-TECH and Soloman Taiwan. There’s FIFTEEN more AR SBR AEG models under the spotlight as RED CELL reach the halfway point of their extended testing program, and Bill gets techy (a rare thing indeed!) with an awesome thermal sight from HIKMICRO! To round things out this month there are a couple of mammoth AA LEGION reports the first of which covers some very special CQB Training in the UK, along with Stewbacca's report on the now-annual POLK 3 MilSim game in Taiwan… if you like your airsoft hot and full-on then you need to check this out! As usual we hope that there’s a little of something for everyone to dip into this month; and remember… “If it’s in airsoft, it’s in AIRSOFT ACTION”!

VORSK VMP-1 GBB<br />
suppressor fixing mount could be made a bit simpler,<br />
but there really is no issue there… the actual overall<br />
feel of the body’s plastic gives a “basic” feel yet is<br />
solid and well made, but now I’m being super-picky!<br />
Honestly, hats off to Vorsk for this, their first time<br />
making a unique gas SMG platform!<br />
It is very well made and I have no doubts that<br />
our words will be heard and noted for the little<br />
improvements over time to give us that overall<br />
satisfaction, and this platform has further established<br />
Vorsk as the “new kid on the SMG block” with a<br />
bloody good, and big, stick to beat others down with;<br />
I look forward to what Vorsk have planned for the<br />
future builds as the VMP is an excellent start!<br />
IT’S A WRAP… FOR NOW!<br />
So, Vorsk have done something pretty special here<br />
without a doubt, and that’s to create a unique, builtfrom-the-ground-up<br />
gas platform that ultimately<br />
pleases disparate airsoft-users! That’s quite an<br />
accomplishment in itself, but the story doesn’t end<br />
here!<br />
Once again, being in the loop I KNOW that there is<br />
more to come from Vorsk… but you’ll have to wait as<br />
I am sworn to secrecy right now! I 100% know what<br />
I would LIKE to see, but if wishes were fishes… I’m<br />
certain that this will be a hot topic of debate in the<br />
Owners Group, and along with the guys from AIRTAC<br />
(who have already created an HPA solution for the<br />
VMP-1!) I’ll be co-hosting an “owners get together”<br />
at the National <strong>Airsoft</strong> Festival later this month so I<br />
can garner more feedback face-to-face, and I hope to<br />
meet some of you there!<br />
For now though I’ll leave the final word to Vorsk<br />
themselves, who told me...<br />
“We have been overwhelmed to the reaction<br />
that’s been received since launch of the VMP-1. The<br />
community that has built up around this RIF has been<br />
amazing to see and people are loving it.<br />
We are really proud of the work that has gone into<br />
this project. This feels to be a real turning point for<br />
Vorsk and we can’t wait to keep bringing you all top<br />
quality products in the future.<br />
We have smaller projects like the VMP-1C releasing<br />
imminently as well as a much larger (some would say<br />
massive) projects which has us very busy currently and<br />
will do for the next 12 to 18 months. Which we are<br />
sure you will love!” AA<br />
