Raven Hi Capa 5.1 Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol in Black with BDS Sight

The Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 with BDS Sight is a feature-packed, budget-friendly airsoft pistol that doesn’t cut corners where it counts. Designed as part of Raven’s mid-range Hi-Capa series, this gas blowback sidearm delivers a reliable, skirmish-ready platform straight out of the box. With solid performance, clean aesthetics, and the bonus of a pre-installed red dot sight, it's a superb choice for anyone looking to step into the Hi-Capa world without breaking the bank.

This model follows the traditional 5.1 Hi-Capa layout, but adds some modern upgrades to give it more field versatility. It comes with fibre-optic sights and an integrated BDS (Bright Dot Sight) red dot mounted directly on the slide. The BDS is fully adjustable for windage and elevation, giving you quicker target acquisition and better performance under pressure. Whether you're indoors or on an open field, having a red dot on a pistol really gives you the edge when every second counts.

Build-wise, it feels solid. The slide is crafted from aluminium alloy—strong enough to take a beating, yet light enough to keep the cycle speed snappy. The frame features a full-length 20mm accessory rail, allowing you to attach torches, lasers, or even some more creative additions if you're feeling bold. The outer barrel is threaded with a 12mm CCW female thread, so if you want to add a suppressor or tracer unit, you’ll just need the right adapter.

The grip is one of the standout parts of the pistol. It’s a finely stippled, rubberised polymer unit that sits comfortably in the hand—even with gloves. That texturing offers excellent control, especially in wet or high-pressure situations. The beavertail safety and extended slide release are intuitive and designed to enhance usability under skirmish conditions.

Internally, it houses a 6.03mm precision inner barrel measuring 113mm long, helping deliver tight groupings and improved accuracy. Blowback is crisp and satisfying, thanks to a strong recoil spring and tight slide fitment. Despite the impressive recoil, the performance remains consistent thanks to Raven’s smart internal design and gas efficiency. It pushes around 328 FPS on green gas, right in the sweet spot for most UK skirmish sites.

The included 23-round gas magazine is double-stacked and features a large reservoir—perfect for multiple reloads before needing a top-up. If you're running longer sessions or prefer CO2, Raven also includes a spare CO2 nozzle, making it easy to swap between gas types depending on your setup or the weather. Better still, the Raven Hi-Capa series is compatible with mags from WE, TM, Vorsk, AW, and more—so you’ve got upgrade paths and backup options right out the gate.

Whether you’re a newer player looking for your first serious GBB pistol or a veteran wanting a dependable, accurate sidearm with a few modern touches, the Raven Hi-Capa 5.1 with BDS Sight is hard to beat at this price point. It looks the part, feels great in hand, and performs far beyond what you'd expect from a mid-range offering.
