Colt L119A2 SFIW Gas Blowback Rifle (TM MWS Internals/Archwick – Black)
Assault rifles used by the United Kingdom’s Special Air Service (SAS) typically are Colt Canada L119A2 SFIWs. Colt Canada (formerly Diemaco) produced the L119A2, which can maintain zero with different optics and features a monolithic one-piece upper receiver for increased robustness. It has complete ambidextrous controls, an Ergo Grip, Magpul PMAGs, and a Magpul CTR stock.
During the terror incident in Nairobi, Kenya on January 15, 2019, SAS Trooper “Christian Craighead” used this rifle. A large number of civilians were rescued by Trooper Craighead after he entered the besieged hotel compound and engaged the terrorists. Because of his bravery, he received the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross.
The airsoft community has been clamouring for an accurate replica of SAS Trooper Christian Craighead’s rifle ever since photos of him using it surfaced from Nairobi, Kenya in 2019. Until now, the most dedicated fans of the weapon have resorted to custom-making their own, sometimes even manufacturing parts and fixtures that aren’t available. There have been instances where this has been more costly than this entire set. It was long overdue for an airsoft manufacturer to release one, and Archwick, in collaboration with EMG and Cybergun, has truly nailed it. Without a question, it was a brilliant decision to have it powered by the MWS system, a tried-and-true gas blowback system that offers an abundance of after market support, goods, replacement and upgrade components with even more on the way. There is no better airsoft rifle than this one.
