The Valken ASL+ ROMEO Airsoft Gun

So if you’re going to invest so much time, effort and – let’s face it – money, in your airsoft gear, you may as well love it! Nowhere is this truer than an airsoft gun: you’ll carry it with you everywhere you go when the BB’s are flying and count on it for offense, defense and accomplishing the mission! So fall in love with the value, performance and style of the new Valken ASL+ Romeo airsoft gun!
Lots to Love!
The Valken ASL+ Romeo airsoft gun brings together a long list of impressive features, updated performance capabilities and a compact, futuristic look to create one of the most capable combinations of performance and price in airsoft! A compact airsoft carbine ideal for CQB, indoor battlefields or anyone in search of an airsoft gun that keeps size and weight to a minimum, the Valken ASL+ Romeo electric airsoft gun features a relatively short 225mm barrel with a five-inch free-floating quadrail standing by for accessories like grips, lights or lasers and an ultra-compact, three-position PDW-style stock! Standard with flip-up hi-viz sights, the Valken Romeo offers a flat-top receiver that can easily mount a red dot or variable zoom scope for fast target acquisition at close to medium ranges!
Able to fire in fully automatic or semi-automatic modes at up to 330 feet per second, the Valken ASL+ Romeo offers a list of features that doesn’t stop on the outside of the airsoft gun! The Romeo includes 22:1 metal gears housed in a radial cut gearbox shell, an upgraded torque motor, rotary style hop-up, quick-change spring system, and a full metal teeth piston! The Romeo’s barrel is threaded for accessories like an airsoft tracer unit, and all the fire controls and magazine release are ambidextrous! Shooters familiar with the M4 or AR15 style receiver will find all the controls precisely where they should be, and the Pro Match trigger easy to pull. Finally, the Valken ASL+ Romeo airsoft gun is delivered with a 300 round M4-style hi-cap airsoft magazine.
Get the Romeo Ready
Getting the Valken ASL+ Romeo AEG airsoft gun out of the box and into the battle doesn’t take much. A Valken 7.4v 1300mAh airsoft battery with a Small Tamiya connector can be easily charged and installed into the carbine’s buttstock, the magazine loaded, primed and inserted, and then it’s time to flip the switch and step outside the wire! After that, it’s up to the shooter to accessorize and upgrade the Romeo with the airsoft gear they need to accomplish their mission or bring the rifle into line with their particular style or loadout specifications! Most shooters will add a rifle sling, and then a red dot sight to allow for quick and easy acquisitions of targets at close to medium ranges. Shooters who play a little more of their airsoft outdoors may wish to add a variable zoom riflescope like the Valken 1-4x20 scope, as this will allow a shooter to squeeze the most range and accuracy out of the platform should engagements occur at longer distances. Operators in CQB environments will likely add at least a vertical foregrip to the Valken Romeo, or may even opt for a weapon light or rail-mounted laser for the ultimate in quick target acquisition for one-shot takedowns!
Light, compact and packed with features at an unbeatable price, the Valken ASL+ Romeo AEG airsoft gun is easy to fall in love with! For shooters in search of an airsoft gun at home in CQB and close-quarters environments as it is on the rolling, wooded hills of outdoor areas of operation, the capabilities of the Romeo combine with an impressive price to offer serious airsoft shooters an outstanding all-around airsoft gun that can handle any mission!
