Description
Double Bell D90 (Black – 810)
This is the Double Bell D90, model 810, in black. It is a compact bullpup submachine gun AEG styled on the famous futuristic personal defence weapon, with a smooth, ergonomic shape, a thumbhole grip and the magazine sitting along the top of the receiver. Retailer listings for the Double Bell 810 describe it as a P90-style AEG.
Double Bell is known for affordable, dependable AEGs, and this model is a popular choice for CQB players and new airsofters who want something light, short and easy to handle. The bullpup layout keeps the overall length very short while still allowing a useful barrel length.
Build and design
Retailer listings for the Double Bell 810 describe a polymer body with alloy fittings, a 20mm top and side rail system with iron sights on the top rail, and an overall length of around 500mm. The short length makes it very manoeuvrable in buildings, vehicles and tight woodland.
The listings also describe a 14mm counter-clockwise (CCW) outer barrel thread, which allows you to fit compatible mock silencers or tracer units.
Performance and internals
According to the same listings, the 810 uses a metal version 6 (V6) gearbox, rear wired, a rotary adjustable hop-up accessed through a latched port above the thumbhole, and safe, semi and full auto fire through a two-stage trigger. The magazine is a wheel-wound 280-round high-capacity type, so you can stay in the fight for a long time.
Retailer listings recommend a 7.4V LiPo stick battery with a mini Tamiya connector, fitted inside the stock behind the butt plate. Please check with us before buying a battery so you get the right size.
Getting started
Before your first game, fully charge a suitable battery, fit it as the manual describes and connect it carefully. Load a magazine and start with the hop-up turned off, then fire a few shots at a safe backstop and add hop a little at a time until the BBs fly flat without rising at the end of their flight.
Practise winding the magazine and changing it at home. On a top-mounted magazine like this, it is worth getting used to seating it firmly so it feeds reliably.

Compatibility
Retailer listings state that the 810 accepts AEG P90-style high-cap, mid-cap, low-cap and box magazines, but magazine fit can vary between brands, so check with us before buying spares. The rails accept standard 20mm accessories, and the 14mm CCW thread suits mock silencers and tracer units with the same thread.
Use good quality seamless 6mm BBs.
Care and maintenance
Take the battery out after every game and store it away from the replica, and charge LiPo batteries only on a proper balance charger that you are supervising. Clean the inner barrel with a cleaning rod and a dry patch every few games, as dirt and broken BB fragments are the main causes of flyers.
Use good quality seamless BBs of a consistent weight, check external screws and accessories before each game day, and store the replica somewhere dry. Leave internal gearbox work to someone experienced with AEGs.
Who is it for?
The D90 suits CQB players, new airsofters and anyone who wants a light, compact and characterful bullpup AEG with plenty of ammunition on board.
Please note: BBs are not included. Please check the product images and contact us to confirm whether a battery and charger are supplied with this version. Always wear suitable eye protection when using any airsoft replica, and have it chronographed at your site before play.
