Compact Design
The Tokyo Marui Saiga-12 SBS Gas Blowback Shotgun is a meticulously crafted replica of the iconic Russian Saiga-12.
The SBS version is significantly more compact than its predecessor. Built with a durable metal and high-quality polymer construction, this shotgun maintains a robust and tactical design while ensuring lightweight maneuverability.
It features modernised furniture, including a 20mm Picatinny railed handguard, a side-folding AR buffer tube, and an M4/AR-15 A2 pistol grip.
At the front, a muzzle choke inspired by real-world breaching chokes gives the Saiga-12 SBS a rugged, intimidating appearance
Its short-barreled (SBS) configuration (7.5 inches) makes it ideal for close-quarters combat scenarios, providing players with a compact yet powerful tool.
Realistic Gas Blowback System
This shotgun is equipped with a Saiga-specific blowback engine featuring a large piston (approximately 19mm in diameter), this shotgun delivers intense recoil shock during firing, enhancing realism and immersion
With the new specialised blowback engine, it is now possible to fire three bullets at once while also experiencing blowback. Furthermore, the accuracy of each component is enhanced by gauging the actual weapon.
High-Performance Shooting
It offers impressive gas efficiency, meaning players can rely on consistent performance without frequent reloads. The magazine also includes a temperature measurement system to ensure optimal performance
Despite its compact size, the Saiga-12 SBS delivers impressive range and accuracy. Capable of hitting targets at 50 meters using 0.28g BBs, it competes with many AEG rifles.
The fixed HOP-up is highly effective, optimizing performance for heavier BBs up to 0.32g. Additionally, the snappy bolt cycling and efficient gas system make it a powerhouse on standard green gas.
Realistic Gimmicks:
The shotgun replicates real-world functions, such as loading the first round via the bolt handle, stopping the bolt when the magazine is empty, and takedown for maintenance.
It also features an auto-stop system that halts firing when the magazine is empty, with an optional blank firing mode for added versatility.
The alloy receiver features precise engravings, authentic rivets, and a steel top cover, replicating the real steel version flawlessly. The oversized Saiga-12 bolt carrier, along with the appropriately enlarged ejection port, enhances its authenticity, while the realistic fire selector remains true to its AK lineage, offering semi-auto and full-auto modes.
Customization
Equipped with a tactical rail system, the Saiga-12 SBS is highly customizable. It includes an integrated 20mm Picatinny rails on each side allow for the attachment of tactical accessories like flashlights or laser sights. Additionally, an optional rail for the bottom section lets you install a vertical or angled foregrip.
