ASG CZ Shadow 2 Gas Blowback Pistol

£154.99 £119.99



Designed by top tier competition shooters, the Shadow 2 is well balanced handgun made for speed and precision. The ASG CZ Shadow 2 airsoft pistol takes from its real steel counterpart and delivers on all the same great features. The slide is crafted out of anodised aluminium and features a less rounded and more angled design with a slight weight increase due to the wider slide. The added weight and design of the slide improves recoil management and allows greater precision shooting.
Deeper and more pronounced slide serrations on the slide furnish the shooter with a firmer grip when racking the slide. In addition, the pronounced chequering of the front and back grips when combined with the thinner profile CNC machined zinc shells, promote a better wrap around the pistol grip. The Shadow 2 trigger guard has also been extended for easier trigger access and a superior shooting experience when wearing gloves. 
The fully licensed Shadow 2 also features a new grip angle cut which deepens at the beaver tail along with a new undercut at the trigger guard. These grip cuts allow the Shadow 2 to sit more firmly in the shooters hand and promotes better recoil management.
An enlarged magazine catch is adjustable with three available positions that can be set using only a hex key. The magazine catch also has a more pronounced outwards profile, giving the shooter a positive confirmation when pressing the release catch. The Shadow 2 recoil spring guide is made out of high quality stainless steel for durability.
The Shadow 2 comes with a fibre optic front sight and adjustable rear sight. Powered by a CO2 cartridge located in the 26 round magazine, the Shadow 2 delivers a hard consistent kick . Gas magazines are also available separately as well as extended capacity magazines.
Designed to be a class dominating competition shooters pistol from the ground up, the ASG CZ Shadow 2 was voted ‘best airsoft pistol’ in the Popular Airsoft ‘Players Choice’ awards.

History
The classic layout of the real steel Shadow 2 is probably the 2nd most replicated handgun shape in the world, just behind the classic American Browning-designed 1911.
The Shadow 2 is the contemporary successor to the CZ75 sidearm from the mid-1970s, when the iron curtain separated the Soviet Union from the Western nations. The CZ75 pistol was primarily used as a sidearm for the military and police forces in Eastern Bloc countries. 
Today, the Shadow 2 takes the classic styling, adds a 21st century twist, to create a modern platform for competitive shooting that boasts accuracy, balance, and trigger response – ideal for IPSC shooters.

In the UK, airsoft guns are classified as "realistic imitation firearms" (RIFs). As such, there are specific regulations governing the sale, purchase, and use of airsoft guns. One of the most important regulations for airsoft in the UK is the Violent Crime Reduction Act of 2006. This act requires that anyone who wishes to purchase a RIF must have a "legitimate defense" for doing so. This means that the purchaser must be able to demonstrate that they have a valid reason for owning a RIF, such as being a member of a recognized airsoft club or reenactment group. The UK Airsoft Retailers Association (UKARA) has developed a system for recognizing legitimate airsoft players, called the UKARA database. To be added to the database, an airsoft player must play a minimum of three games at a registered airsoft site within a period of no less than two months, and have their attendance and game history recorded. Once registered, the player can use their UKARA membership to purchase RIFs from registered retailers without the need for a special defense. Airsoft guns must also be transported in a secure case when being transported in public. Overall, while airsoft guns are legal to own and use in the UK, it is important to follow the regulations and guidelines set out by the law and organizations such as UKARA to ensure that they are used safely and responsibly. Here at Combat Airsoft Supplies we require you to submit a valid defence / UKARA when purchasing a "RIF". If you have any questions relating to this please email store@combatairsoft.uk prior to your purchase. In practice, the most widely recognized form of defense for owning a RIF is membership in a registered airsoft club (UKARA). Other forms of defense may include historical reenactment, film and theatrical production, and firearms training. However, these defenses are typically more difficult to prove and may require additional evidence to support. In order to establish a reasonable excuse, individuals must be able to provide evidence that they have a legitimate reason for owning a RIF. This may include providing proof of membership in an airsoft club or a letter from a film or theatrical production company. It is worth noting that the law does not apply to "two-tone" or brightly colored airsoft guns, which are not considered realistic imitation firearms and can be purchased without a reasonable excuse. However, two-tone airsoft guns are generally less desirable for serious airsoft players as they can affect the realism of the game.
