  • Full metal construction
  • 6.03mm Tightbore inner barrel
  • Pre-installed slide mounted red dot sight

If you like your Hi-Capas short and well equipped, the VORSK Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro GBB Pistol w/Red Dot Sight may be the Hi-Capa for you. This full metal GBB pistol boasts the usual VORSK compliment of pre-upgraded parts, including a flared magazine well, ported slide, extended controls and a 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel for enhanced accuracy and improved gas efficiency.

This is the "BDS" red dot sight equipped variant, giving you a pre-installed red dot sight mounted to the rear of the slide, as is the current convention for combat pistols. The red dot sight provides faster target acquisition and looks fantastic, elevating the looks of the 3.8 X Pro into the elite.

The advantages of a shorter slide, frame and barrel include reduced overall weight, faster cyclic rate thanks to reduced slide rate and a faster draw from a retention holster, shaving off a few precious milliseconds for a seriously fast draw to target execution. If this sounds good to you, the VORSK Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro GBB Pistol w/Red Dot Sight belongs in your holster!

Description

Introducing the Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro, yet another addition to the ever-growing VORSK line of Hi-Capas; competition-styled GBB pistols with fantastic ergonomics, snappy performance, and attractive competition-esque styling. The 3.8 X Pro carries through the vented slide styling of previous VORSK Hi-Capa offerings in a new, shorter package, but unlike other baby Hi-capas on the market, the 3.8 X keeps the full-length pistol grip of the larger 5.1 variants; offering excellent ergonomics together with the "Commander" length slide.

This variant is equipped with a pre-installed red dot sight, allowing you to acquire your targets quickly in any ambient lighting level. The red dot sight is styled after the popular RMR style sight, offering multiple brightness settings and full adjustability, requiring a CR2032 3V button cell (not included) to power it. If you fancy a red dot sight-equipped pistol but not the faff that goes along with sourcing the right mount plate and sight for your pistol, the VORSK Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro GBB Pistol w/Red Dot Sight will give you want you need without the pre-requisite effort!

Starting at the tip of the outer barrel we can the VORSK thread adapter mounted to the tip of the 3.8-inch outer barrel. A very generous move, especially considering the increasing popularity of using pistols with Tracer units in CQB skirmishes! The threads on the outer barrel itself are 12mm CCW female threads, but the thread adapter provides 14mm CCW male threads allowing all the most popular Airsoft muzzle devices to be mounted with ease.

To sweeten the deal, VORSK provides a stylish thread protector, so even if you aren't mounting a tracer or suppressor, your pistol will still look the business. Speaking of looking the business, the outer barrel of the Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro features attractive spiral fluting, meaning when your mag runs empty and your slide locks back your jaw will drop too!

Moving rearwards, we come to the shortened Hi-Capa slide, which features all the usual enhancements found on VORSK's other Hi-Capa pistols. These include attractive angular vents in the slide, helping to keep the weight down to increase the cyclic rate and serrations at the rear which mesh perfectly with the styling of the slide vents.

At the top of the slide we can find light-enhancing front and rear open iron sights which feature green inserts for a perfect sight picture which is easy to acquire quickly and should stand out in all but the darkest conditions. The slide itself, like the controls and magazine well extension, is beautifully finished in matt black, giving the pistol a discrete, yet speedy race gun look that will definitely turn heads on the skirmish field.

Mounted at the rear of the slide, we are treated to a "BDS" red dot sight pre-installed. This means target acquisition speed is improved and the VORSK Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro is rocking the cutting-edge red dot-equipped look, putting it right in line with high-end customised GBB pistols. The red dot sight requires a single CR2032 button cell (not included) to power it. To install your battery you will need to remove the red dot sight from the mount via the two Allen screws on the top. With this done, insert your CR2032 cell into the bottom of the sight and reinstall it on the mount. To turn it on, simply press either of the two side brightness adjustment buttons and to turn it off, long press both simultaneously.

Moving down to the frame and pistol grip we can find the controls of the Hi-Capa 3.8 X Pro, identical to other Hi-capa models in the VORSK range, and very well placed for intuitive operation. The ambidextrous manual safety sits right beneath the shooter's thumb for fast access, and the extended slide release can also be reached from a firing grip. The manual safety locks the trigger and hammer, preventing the pistol from firing, but this obviously only works when the safety is on.

The Hi-Capa pistol series features an extra level of safety in the form of the beavertail grip safety; a proven design which dates back to this pistol's Granddaddy, the 1911. This safety prevents the pistol from firing if the grip safety is not depressed, meaning you will never have an accidental discharge from snagging the trigger on gear.

At the front of the alloy frame, we can find a 20mm Picatinny pistol rail, ideal for mounting tactical flashlights and lasers, should the mission require it. The magazine release can be found on the left side of the pistol and is a slightly raised design which is easy to hit, but not so easy that you can accidentally drop your magazine in the heat of a firefight!

Both the hammer and trigger of the Hi-Capa 3.8 X are a skeletonised design, reducing the weight of the pistol to only what is necessary for optimal performance, and tying in with the other high-speed features such as its vented slide. The pistol grip of the Hi-capa design is a modular part, separate from the alloy frame, and is made from textured polymer for excellent gripping qualities.

The grip provides enough friction to prevent an accidental drop but not so much that you have to wear gloves in order to avoid tearing your hands apart. The texturing extends to the trigger guard, giving you something to grab onto with your support hand and allowing more modern shooting grips to be used. At the bottom of the pistol grip, we can find the magazine well extension, a staple for any competition pistol. This extension provides a useful guide to help speed up reloads, taking away the possibility of user error slowing you down and making reloading quickly an absolute breeze.

Now that we have you drooling over the looks of this pistol, let's talk about its performance. The cyclic rate is excellent, as one would expect with a Hi-Capa due to its weight-reduced slide. The 3.8 X Pro even outpaces the other VORSK Hi-capa offerings because of the combination of the shorter slide reducing mass even more, and the massive gas reservoir within the Hi-Capa's full-sized magazine providing ample propellant for all 28 rounds and then some! Like the other Hi-capas from VORSK, the 3.8 X Pro features a 6.03mm tight bore inner barrel, granting it exceptional accuracy for a pistol of this size.

If you love a styled-up Hi-Capa but aren't up for styling one up yourself, VORSK has done the work for you. Whether it is for competition shooting or a skirmish sidearm, you can't go wrong with a Hi-capa 3.8 X Pro w/Red Dot Sight from VORSK!

Special Instructions

These table can be used as a reference to see if the BB weight you are using will be over acceptable Joulage limits at some Airsoft Sites in the UK. To check if the weight can be used chrono your weapon using the BB you intend to use, and then compare it to the chart.

FPS, Power and Joule Limits can vary from site to site, so please get in touch with where you're going to play with in advance to avoid disappointment.

Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, with a 350fps limit for Automatic Replicas, 400fps for Semi-Automatic Replicas, and 500fps for Bolt Action Replicas.

Tap the tabs below to open the relevant chart for your replica.

Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, and is the equivalent of 350fps, using 0.20g BB resulting in an upper limit of 1.14j.
