I travelled to Székesfehérvár in Hungary to check out Airsoft in their country… It’s not normally a country that crops up a lot on my social media, but I know they do some good Milsim events and I do get a lot of blog visits from Hungary each month, so I decided to go and…

Review – Karrimor SF Sabre 60-100
