BB Guns can be a whole lot of fun when you’re not able to make it to the range with your family and friends. Crosman has been in the business of making high-quality BB guns for 100 years and while the original pump-action BB guns are still around, Crosman is excited to announce their Fortify CO2-powered BB revolver. This 18-shot, single-action revolver might make for a great Christmas present for you or a loved one – just don’t shoot your eye out!

Air Venturi has announced the release of the world’s first frangible BBs. The new .177 cal (4.5mm) BBs are called Dust Devil. Just like other frangible projectiles, Dust Devil BBs shatter upon impact on hard surfaces and minimize the possibility of ricochet which steel BBs are well known for. The new BBs are also lead-free. Both features combined make them much safer for use in indoor shooting.

Earlier we reported about the Umarex announcement of their agreement with Glock of manufacturing licensed airsoft and BB Glock replicas. Now, Umarex has added the Glock branded airguns to their website and released videos showcasing these new pistols. Let’s take a look at key features and the released model line.

A company called Burke Gallery Guns manufactures functional (shootable) scaled down copies of American Old West firearms. What sets them apart from other miniature gun makers is that they make 1:2 scale guns (50% smaller). Most of other miniature replicas are much smaller. The most impressive of the Burke guns is the scaled down Volcanic pistol.

“You’ll put your eye out…”  BB guns.  Sheesh, I haven’t thought about those in a long time, especially with the availability of AirSoft.  Looks like Air Venturi is working on solving a problem which, honestly, I don’t remember having (though I was a young’un at the time).

For those looking for more action than a real watermelon or soda can can provide, Daisy has released their oozing targets. Meant for BB rifles (convenient for Daisy), the targets are “reusable and long-lasting”.The slime is non-toxic, non-staining, and fully biodegradable.
