Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 GBB Airsoft Pistol – Blue
Looking for a rock-solid airsoft pistol that performs like a champ without emptying your wallet? The Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 in Blue might just be the sidearm you’ve been after. Built around the popular Hi-Capa platform, this gas blowback pistol combines sleek aesthetics, dependable internals, and smart ergonomic features — all at a very approachable price point. It’s a great shout for both newer players who want a reliable first pistol and seasoned skirmishers looking for a dependable backup.
From the moment you hold it, the Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 feels reassuringly solid. Weighing in at around 930 grams and stretching to 250mm in length, this is no featherweight — but that’s a good thing. It’s got presence. The finely stippled polymer grip gives you great control, even with gloves on, and the rubberised texture sticks in the hand nicely. It's a double-stack design, too, so you get that full-size feel and a magazine with plenty of gas storage and 23-round capacity (with room for one more in the chamber).
The slide is machined from lightweight yet tough aluminium alloy and is paired with a meaty recoil spring — the result? Snappy cycling and a decent kick every time you pull the trigger. It doesn't just look slick either; that 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel delivers a bit more consistency and range than you'd expect from a pistol in this bracket. Oh, and the blowback action is no slouch — it’s punchy, loud, and satisfying without sacrificing performance.
Up top, fibre-optic sights help you line up shots quickly, even in lower light. They're bright, easy to acquire, and surprisingly functional — not just for show. The slide also features an extended slide release for quicker reloads under pressure. Combined with the functional beavertail safety and slide lock, you've got a pistol that’s both safe and intuitive to operate in-game.
Want to run attachments? You're sorted. The full-length 20mm rail under the barrel means you can slap on a torch, laser or whatever else suits your loadout. The outer barrel is threaded too (12mm CCW female), so you can add suppressors or tracer units — just note you’ll need an adapter for most standard muzzle devices.
Performance-wise, it’s running around 328fps on green gas using 0.20g BBs, which is pretty much spot on for most UK indoor and outdoor sites. It’s also compatible with mags from big names like WE, TM, Vorsk, Armorer Works and Army Armament, which is a real bonus for long-term usability. Plus, Raven’s included both a spare gas nozzle and a CO2 nozzle in the box, so if you want to switch to CO2 for winter games, you're already sorted.
In short, the Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 GBB is a solid, good-looking airsoft handgun with thoughtful features, reliable performance, and loads of compatibility. The blue slide makes it a two-tone pistol, so no UKARA is needed to purchase — ideal if you're just getting into the hobby. Whether it's your first sidearm or another addition to your collection, this bb pistol feels like it punches well above its weight.
