Raven EU18 Hydro Series Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol in Camo Frame with Red Dot Sight
If you’re on the hunt for a gas blowback pistol that turns heads and delivers serious firepower, the Raven EU18 Hydro Series in Camo with a pre-installed red dot sight should be on your radar. Built by NUPROL under their RAVEN brand, this full-featured airsoft handgun is designed for players who want responsive performance, crisp blowback, and the chaos of full-auto fire—all wrapped up in a slick two-tone hydro-dipped finish with a functional optic straight out of the box.
At its core, this is a Gen.4-style EU-series airsoft pistol, complete with finger ridges, flared magwell, and that tried-and-tested ergonomic frame. The textured grip is practical whether you’re bare-handed or fully gloved up, and the removable back straps let you adjust the fit to suit your playstyle. Finished in hydro-dipped camouflage with a contrasting green slide, this variant already qualifies as two-tone—so no UKARA needed to purchase. Just load gas, slap in your mag, and you’re good to go.
Performance is solid across the board, shooting at approximately 300 FPS using 0.20g BBs and green gas. The EU18’s key feature is its fire selector switch, located on the left side of the slide. One engraved dot for semi-auto. Three dots for full auto. Flick the switch and let it rip. Unloading a full mag in seconds might not be the most accurate tactic, but it definitely leaves an impression—especially when you're clearing tight corners or laying down suppression in a CQB game.
Up top, the included BDS red dot sight is already mounted. It’s quick to activate, with push-button controls on either side and adjustable windage and elevation so you can zero it in perfectly. Better yet, the iron sights are visible through the red dot in case the battery runs out mid-game (CR2032 button cell required, not included). It’s a smart design choice—function first, flair second.
The 90mm inner barrel features a 6.03mm tightbore diameter for improved shot consistency and range. Combine that with the adjustable hop-up, and you've got a pistol that’s genuinely effective at medium distances, not just point-blank encounters. The hop-up can be accessed by pulling the slide back and removing the rear plate, making on-the-fly tuning quick and easy.
At the front, a 12mm CW female threaded alloy barrel allows you to add a suppressor or tracer unit via a thread adapter. And underneath the frame, a 20mm Picatinny rail gives you room to mount torches or lasers—ideal for night ops or tactical setups. The trigger is a two-stage safety design, meaning the gun won't fire unless the central blade is depressed—reducing misfires during high-stress movement.
The EU18’s alloy slide and strong gas system provide a satisfying blowback and a firm, punchy recoil. The slide serrations are deep and easy to grip, even with wet hands. You’ll also find a black serial plate that doubles as a physical trigger lock—slide it back to secure the pistol during transport, and forward to re-engage for battle.
