Hanke Kar-98K Shell Ejecting Gel Blaster(US Stock)

Does this ship to the uk?

This blaster is awesome. Very fun to play with. I just wanted to mention for games, you can load multiple gels into the shells, (depending on the gel balls), so it shoots more like a shotgun. I definitely recommend getting a shell catching bag if you use this in games because the shells go flying, which is awesome, but means you have to find them after too. It can also use those reusable rubber balls or foam darts, which is pretty neat. All in all a very cool blaster. Fun for plinking targets with 5/5.

This is an amazing blaster. I love the weight, the feel, and the scale of the rifle. It is fun to really pull the bolt back and load the shells in with a clip or by hand.

However, as you can see I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. This is mainly because I believe in order to fully play around with this blaster or to competitively use it (if you really want to), you would need to upgrade it with at least a few of the Hanke metal parts and the hop-up.

Sure, the blaster hits far enough and hard enough, but it is not competitive enough without a hop-up and possibly a spring upgrade and the requirement of carrying a lot of shells, but I'll continue why a spring upgrade may not be that good unless you have the metal bolt upgrade.

Though the bolt's body and most of the blaster components are metal, the bolt head is plastic, which I find very odd. It requires a bit of force to push a shell in, and I believe that the bolt can snap over time since the spring is quite strong. This requires you to firmly push the bolt forward, especially when shells get jammed, requiring considerable force to fit the bolt while fighting against the spring's resistance as you pull it back and forth to fit the shell in.

With all that said, if you are here for a replica, a wall-mounted display, or for play, then I think this is a great blaster. But to get the full experience of using this, I would recommend getting the metal bolt upgrade at least and whichever upgrade you want.
