EMG / Salient Arms BLU Compact Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol with Gold Trim in Blue

Need a compact sidearm that packs a punch and doesn’t shy away from turning heads? The EMG / Salient Arms BLU Compact Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol in Blue with Gold Trim is all about refined performance with undeniable style. Fully licensed by Salient Arms International and built by EMG, this airsoft pistol merges tactical practicality with aggressive aesthetics, making it an ideal choice for skirmishers who want to stand out while staying deadly in CQB.

It’s not just about looks, though. This pistol comes with a CNC-machined aluminium slide that features bold lightening cuts, designed to reduce weight and boost cycle speed. The result? A snappy, responsive blowback action that delivers smooth, consistent performance with every shot. With an overall length of 198 mm and a weight of just 505 g, the BLU Compact feels agile and perfectly balanced for high-speed transitions and close-quarters manoeuvres. Whether you’re clearing tight corners or covering teammates in tight spaces, this pistol excels where mobility is key.

The gold fluted outer barrel is more than eye candy. It’s match-grade and threaded (11 mm CW), and the box includes a 14 mm CCW adapter and a thread protector, so you're tracer or suppressor-ready right out of the gate. Combined with the adjustable hop-up system and a 23-round green gas or CO₂ compatible magazine, you’ve got the tools to tune your shots for precision and control. The inner barrel measures 81 mm and delivers around 305 FPS with 0.20 g BBs—ideal for most CQB field limits while keeping a solid punch.

Handling is where the BLU Compact really shines. The textured polymer frame offers a confident grip, further enhanced by an interchangeable backstrap that lets you customise fit to your hand. The double undercut trigger guard encourages a high, stable grip—helping you control muzzle flip during rapid fire. The flared magwell makes reloads swift and seamless, and all the controls—slide release, mag release, and trigger—are placed for intuitive operation. It’s not just built to be shot; it’s built to be run hard.

Target acquisition is rapid thanks to SAI-style fibre-optic sights up front and a serrated rear sight that cuts down glare. These are real assets when transitioning between targets or operating in low-light conditions. The flat-faced Gen4-style trigger features an integrated safety blade, delivering a consistent break and a tactile reset that seasoned shooters will appreciate. There’s no mushiness here—just clean, predictable trigger control that boosts confidence in fast engagements.

Whether you’re kitting out for a full CQB loadout or looking for a reliable, compact secondary for outdoor play, the BLU Compact offers rock-solid versatility. It’s a pistol that doesn’t compromise on performance to achieve its visual flair—it just happens to do both extremely well. Throw in support for both green gas and CO₂ mags, and you've got a platform that adapts to your playstyle and conditions. For players who want a pistol that hits hard, shoots straight, and turns heads? This one’s got your name all over it.
