EMG / Salient Arms 2011 DS Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol (4.3 / Aluminum) in Blue

When full-auto meets finesse, the result is the EMG / Salient Arms 2011 DS 4.3 GBB in Blue—a compact, CNC aluminium-built beast that brings Salient Arms’ elite styling to the fast-and-furious world of CQB. Fully licensed and precision-engineered, this airsoft pistol combines the sleek form of a race gun with the raw output of a machine pistol. Whether you’re charging corners, engaging multiple targets, or flexing your setup in pistol-only matches, this compact 4.3” variant is built to impress and outperform.

With a total length of just 205 mm and a 675 g build, it’s lightweight without being flighty. The CNC-milled aluminium slide features aggressive lightening cuts to keep the cycle rate snappy, while front and rear serrations give you positive grip even under pressure. The gold match-grade inner-threaded barrel is pure Salient—visual flair with real functionality, ready to take a tracer or suppressor via the included inner 11 mm threading.

Performance-wise, this sidearm delivers around 310 FPS on green gas with 0.20 g BBs, with an inner barrel length of 99.9 mm for excellent short-to-mid-range precision. The adjustable hop-up is accessible via a field strip and allows fine-tuning for accuracy depending on ammo weight or play style. Add in that glorious full-auto toggle—cleverly integrated into the right-side safety—and you’re holding a compact blaster that transitions from surgical semi to spray-and-pray chaos with one flick of your thumb.

Every control is thought through. You’ve got ambidextrous thumb safeties, a functional beavertail grip safety, and a skeletonised flat trigger that breaks crisp and resets fast. Reloading is a joy with the flared magwell and textured grip—designed for real-world efficiency, not just good looks. The 28-round magazine features a matching SAI-style base plate, and compatibility with Hi-Capa mags from Armourer Works, Army Armament, and JW means no drama sourcing spares.

Slide the pistol into your rig and you’ll notice the balance—front-heavy enough for stability, light enough to clear fast. The standard 20 mm Picatinny rail accepts your preferred light or laser, making it fully ready for dark room clears or high-speed assaults. It’s compact enough to dual-wield, but powerful and stable enough to run as your main in tight environments where full-sized pistols get clunky.

Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa internals mean you’re covered for upgrades—from tightbores and hop rubbers to competition blowback units if you want to squeeze every last drop of performance. That upgrade path, combined with the rugged build quality and flashy finish, makes this pistol a favourite for tinkerers and competitive players alike. And let’s not pretend the blue and gold combo isn’t pure kit-envy fuel on the field.

This is more than just a flashy GBB—it’s a proper skirmish weapon. Whether you’re breaching doorways in CQB or hammering through 28 rounds in full-auto chaos, the EMG 2011 DS 4.3 in Blue delivers with style, power, and confidence.
