Our expert's opinion

" I find the GBB HX2401 Split Silver IPSC Armorer Works replica particularly well-suited for dynamic use: its Split system makes the cycle snappier, which is clearly felt during rapid sequences. I also appreciate the finish, the fiber optic sights, and the flared magwell, which provides noticeable comfort during reloads. "

Description
The GBB HX2401 IPSC Split Silver .38 Supercomp Armorer Works replica, a competition Hi-Capa designed for speed and precision
The GBB HX2401 Split Silver IPSC Armorer Works replica is a gas blowback (GBB) airsoft pistol developed around the demands of IPSC practice. It targets sport shooters and advanced players looking for a replica built for rapid engagement, reliable reloading, and an immediately optimised grip. Armorer Works designed it with factory-integrated upgrades, requiring no immediate modifications for competition or field use.
A Split IPSC system for ultra-fast return to battery
The centrepiece of this replica is its Split slide system. Unlike Full models where the slide travels back as a single unit, only the rear half of the slide is set in motion with each shot. This reduction in moving mass accelerates the return to battery and ensures a more responsive rate of fire, which is a concrete advantage in IPSC where every fraction of a second counts. The silver serrated slide also delivers an immediately recognisable visual identity, while providing a secure grip for manual cocking.
The rocket-type recoil spring guide complements this setup by optimising recoil management. The recoil sensation remains sharp and physical, characteristic of GBBs, while being better controlled than a traditional full-mass system.
An all-metal and polymer build, with no compromise on assembly
The slide and outer barrel are made of metal, ensuring the rigidity of the assembly and the stability of the moving components. The replica body is made of highly resistant polymer, keeping the total weight without magazine at 750 g, for a total weight with magazine of 1,085 g. The overall length is 280 mm, with an outer barrel of 166 mm. The fixed .38-type compensator is factory-fitted and contributes to the sight radius while reinforcing the visual identity of the replica.
The assemblies are fitted with no perceptible play. The applied finishes are advertised as ultra wear-resistant, resulting in long-lasting finish retention even under intensive use. Gas leakage is virtually non-existent, an important criterion for extended gameplay conditions.
Precision, sighting, and ergonomics ready out of the box
The precision inner barrel has a diameter of 6.03 mm. This choice improves trajectory repeatability by keeping the BB more centred along the full length of the barrel. The hop-up is adjustable, allowing the range and flight curve to be adapted according to the type of BBs used.
The fibre optic sights are factory-mounted, with no addition required. The flared magwell facilitates fast reloading, a direct asset for IPSC practice. An integrated Picatinny rail allows the attachment of additional accessories.
