SRS-A1: official release
Dear All,

Today we're glad to announce that the airsoft Desert Tech Stealth Recon Scout A1 by Silverback Airsoft will be released on November 25th.

Our airsoft version of this awesome bullpup sniper rifle is built only in high quality materials:

- In order to respect most of the awesome features of the original SRS, we had to develop a new patented spring bolt system, push forward compression, spring guide less design. The bolt is made of a steel cylinder, steel cylinder head and steel bolt handle. Piston assembly is made of 6061 aluminium. It features a steel piston sear and the system will allow bolt quick change, no tools needed. Muzzle energy will range between 0.9 Joules to 1.7 Joules depending on your country regulations.
-Compatible with AEG silent piston heads and AEG springs (with a compressed length strictly inferior to 46mm and an inside diameter strictly superior to 11mm).
-Monolithic receiver: CNC 6061 T6 aluminium, a massive piece, over one kilogram, featuring the quick change attachment system patented by Desert Tech LLC. Each receiver has a unique CNC engraved serial number.
-Outer barrels made by CNC , 6061 T6 aluminium, deep fluting for 22'' and 26', with an inner diameter of 8.56mm, the AEG standard, eliminating the necessity of barrel spacers. The airsoft SRS is equipped with a 6.05mm brass inner barrel.
-Two way aluminium hop up unit, directly attached to the quick change barrel assembly, allowing barrel switch in seconds while keeping your hop up setting. Hop up setting is done by two screws on top of the rifle, through the receiver, with the provided key, without removing the barrel, the magazine or the optic.
-Railed handguard: CNC 6061 T5 aluminium and fiber reinforced nylon additional rails (3 pieces included). Rail system is attached to the receiver via a sturdy 38x2mm thread.
-Rifle stock is made of fiber reinforced nylon. Black, Flat Dark Earth and OD colors are available
-Fiber reinforced nylon buttpad extension (2 pieces included)
-Steel magazine, with reinforced nylon internal, 30 rounds capacity.
-Monopod, included with all Silverback Airsoft SRS, accurate replica of the Desert Tech LLC patented monopod, CNC 6061 aluminium.
-CNC aluminium trigger, with position and preload adjustment.
-No injection molding metal parts, no zinc alloy, all screws are in 10.9 steel.

The Silverback Airsoft SRS will be available in three versions:

-SRS A1 Covert, with a short handguard, 16 inches outer barrel and a checkered thread protection (420 mm inner barrel) with an overall length of 675 mm, minimum weight: 3.00 Kg.

SRS-A1: prototype presentation
Hi All,

A video of the prototype is available on Youtube, it will show you the bolt manipulation and shooting, we used a SRS A1 22" configuration, 6.05 mm barrel (578mm length), 0.20g bbs with a bolt delivering a muzzle energy of 1.7 Joule. A version below one Joule will be available.
Then you will see a quick conversion demonstration from a Covert 16" configuration to a A1 26". It will also show you how the airsoft model is similar to the real one.
We expect a release this fall, Hong Kong msrp will be around 500 USD. All interchangeable parts will be available: barrels, handguards, flahhiders, bolts, rails...

Licenses agreement
Dear All,

We were quite silent for a while as we were working on important projects. We are proud to announce that Silverback Airsoft Ltd. is now the exclusive holder of two very promising licenses: Desert Tech LLC. and MPS (Military Police Systems).
It's too early to give you a release date or a price range but we are already working on the SRS from Desert Tech and the AA-12 from MPS. We can't give details at the moment but we'll do it right, by hardcore players for hardcore players, as soon as we'll have updates, we will post it on our Facebook page.

Have a nice week-end !
