Hi everyone welcome to the Lair
I'm Dingchavez
You've probably heard people saying that size doesn't matter
well, I disagree
having a big one is definitely nice!
thanks a lot to Sport Attitude who've sent me this gun so I can show it to you
the MSRP is 279€ in France
well, keep in mind that Sport Attitude doesn't sell to individuals
you've got to be a professional to be able to create an account
so if you're interested in what they sell, contact your closest shop!
this is a BB gun from AW Custom
Armorer Works Custom
the HX2401 .38caliber SuperComp Race Pistol
delivered in a nice box with the AWC logo
so, what about AW Custom?
This is a Taiwanese company
they've been selling custom guns for a few months now
It's been available in France since November 2016
there are many different models
the guns were originally assembled at WE's facilities
but now they've got their own factory
that's why at the beginning people told that AWC was another wing of WE
simply know that WE, AWC or VFC for instance, do not "built" their own parts, they outsource
as car makers do, if you buy a Peugeot, Peugeot doesn't built every part of the car, they also outsource but assemble cars
AW Customs design a project and then they buy parts depending on their specifications
and then assemble the replicas
let's check the content of the box
you can try and use these flashcodes, they don't work with my cell phone you may be luckier than me.
there's an owner's manual, well, a sheet
telling you to go on line
here are the main things to know about the gun
and they tell you to register
so you can be a part of the AWC community and share your experience
they're not the only ones to do so
this sheet is specific to France
it is mandatory to have a reminder about airsoft regulations
now here's the magazine
it is a Hi-capa 30-BB gas magazine
know that those guns are also compatible with CO²
here are the MSRPs for the mags
there's a nice red-colored gas route
a very nice magazine
and here's the gun
on the detailed content they say there's a rail and a specific IPSC chagring handle
well, there's nothing inside my box
this may be a presentation gun or a sample, I don't know
here is a picture of the fully equipped gun
this is the AWC HK2401 .38 SuperComp Race Pistol
it is massive
based on a hi-capa platform
but heavily customized
everything has been tuned bu AWC and each gun is unique
very performant, well, that's 279€
I didn't think they would sell many of those
but it seems that many players have fallen for the whole range
he nice thing being that there are almost no warranty returns
the butt is made of sturdy plastic
with a honeycomb pattern
the logo here
there's a nice magwell extension
with a falcon here, or an eagle
it is easier to insert the magazine thanks to this extension
if you don't like the look of it, remove the pin, the extension and then reassemble the gun using a regular 1911/hi-capa pin
it'd be too bad, this is a whole
when you insert the mag, the logo pops out because of the different colors
a part of the frame and the whole slide are made of alloy
and theres a huge compensator
the sides are brushed
and the rest has been painted matt black
I didn't think I'd like it but it is very nice
it changes from classic guns
but I must admit I'm not a big fan of the compensator
of course there are a lot of other guns available at AWC
there are holes on each side of the frame so you can attach the rail
the markings are really crisp
a bit less on the frame
and there's the year of the model here
big big apologies to Chinese-speaking people here!
these symbols mean "spirit of the wind"
there are serrations at the back of the slide
as well as at the front
the front has been drilled
I've been asked if the paint was as fragile as on WE guns
it looks sturdier
I'm not saying it'll last for years
but it seems tough
the trigger guard also has a special design
and the polished trigger is very nice
very agressive
of course there's a beaver tail safety
as well as an ambidextrous thumb safety
the latest can only be operated when the hammer is cocked
the hammer is also polished
as well as the magazine release
the metal-made outer barrel is marked with the calibre
the front sight is equipped with optic fiber
the rear sight can be adjusted in height and windage
I'm a bit shaky with my left hand
need drugs I guess...
you can mount a laser or a flashlight thanks to the Picatinny rail
and of course the slide catch works
as you can see, this is what they call a "split slide"
it's been machined here so it fits the compensator
the recoil is very nice
the cycle is fast as light!
I've used propane, well, green gas, it's the same thing
it's nice to see that there's a separate part for the extractor, sometimes it is only molded in the slide
and there's a fake firing pin
you can push it
small detail but nice to see
the trigger feels good
almost no slack
then you reach the wall
and you feel the wall
there's a very short reset
this is a big gun
let's check what's inside
because for this amount of money you can expect proper parts
AWC say that every gun is unique, with very tight tolerance
of course there's a bit of wobble between the frame and the slide so the gun can actually cycle
stripping the gun is similar to a regular 1911/hi-capa
no surprise here, but at least they lubricated the gun
but here you can notice the red parts
so, you may have trouble stripping the gun because they've chosen to use a long spring guide
most of the time on 1911s there are short guides
but here it goes all the way down
so pull the spring housing and move the spring guide sideways
now the barrel is supposed to go through the slide
here, it's not the case
so I'll remove the small guide on the hop-up unit
wow that's a long barrel !
the compensator is probably screwed, and it seems to be assembled using Loctite
so I won't force
there's a small defect here, the compensator has not been properly injected
the reinforced BBH and the piston
as well as the reinforced nozzle
so it can take gas and CO²
the firing pin here
a 166mm-long inner barrel
the issue you can encounter here is that the velocity will increase drastically
I cheated a bit, I've already done the shooting tests
the velocity was measured at 350-360 FPS
a bit too much for a handgun
but this is Marui-compatible so you'll have no trouble finding a shorter barrel
we'll talk about the details in the complete written review
the overall quality seems good
but we need to know if the gun is durable
you can see that the paint is not indestructible
of course here it is normal, this is the place where the slide goes
I'll put it back together
the hop-up adjusting wheel isn't loose so the setting shouldn't move in game
once again, sideways
mind your fingers, I've just pinched myself between the slide and the compensator
I'm done with this overview of the AWC HX2401 .38 SuperComp Race Pistol
gas and CO²-compatible
it comes with a cocking lever and a rail
the finish is nice
you'll see during the shooting tests that performances are also noce
but this gun is a bit too powerful to use in game
I'll test if I can reduce it by installing a shorter barrel
thanks again to the whole crew at Sport Attitude
