Description
ACM Custom Revolver Spring Shotgun (Blue – 255A)
The ACM Custom Revolver Spring Shotgun is a spring-powered airsoft shotgun in blue, listed under ACM code 255A. As the name suggests, it is a revolver-style shotgun, a distinctive and unusual design that stands out from the pump shotguns most players carry.
Spring replicas need no gas and no battery, so this shotgun is ready whenever you are and costs almost nothing to run beyond BBs. It is an affordable, eye-catching choice for newcomers, for target practice, and for anyone who enjoys a replica that looks a little different. Its bright blue finish and unusual shape also make it a good talking point in a collection.
How it works
A spring shotgun is cocked by hand before each shot, compressing a spring behind a piston. Pulling the trigger releases the piston, and the air it drives forward sends the BB on its way. Please read the manual for this model’s cocking and loading method before first use, as revolver-style designs differ from conventional pump shotguns.
Because each shot is cocked individually, the shotgun fires at a steady, deliberate pace, and its performance does not change with the weather, unlike a gas replica. The simple mechanism has very few parts to go wrong.
Handling and finish
The revolver-style layout gives the shotgun a chunky, distinctive profile. The blue finish makes it clearly identifiable as a replica and gives it a bright look; please see the product photos for the exact shade and which parts are finished in blue.
Hold the shotgun firmly with both hands and take your time with each shot. A steady, deliberate approach suits the spring action and helps you get the most from it.
Getting started
Load good-quality 6mm BBs as the manual describes, cock the shotgun and fire a few shots at a safe target with a solid backstop that will stop BBs from bouncing back. Keep it pointed in a safe direction at all times, keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire, and store it unloaded and uncocked when you have finished.

Compatibility
Use good-quality, seamless 6mm BBs; lighter BBs such as 0.12g or 0.20g generally suit low-powered spring replicas. Shells, magazines and spare parts for budget spring shotguns are usually specific to the model, so please check with us before buying anything that is not listed for this shotgun.
Care and maintenance
Keep the loading area free from grit and mud, wipe the shotgun over after use, and run a cleaning rod through the barrel occasionally. Use only clean, high-quality seamless BBs, as a single damaged BB can cause a jam.
Store the shotgun unloaded and uncocked so the spring is not left compressed, and avoid dry-firing it repeatedly without BBs. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, and avoid solvents and heavy oils, which can damage plastic parts.
Who is it for?
The ACM Custom Revolver Spring Shotgun is for newcomers who want an affordable, unusual replica, for target practice at home with a safe backstop, and for anyone who likes a bright, distinctive shotgun.
Please note: Gas and batteries are not needed. BBs are not listed as included. Always wear suitable eye protection, and full-face protection for younger shooters, when using or testing any airsoft replica, and use it only under adult supervision where appropriate.
