M8880 Airsoft Shotgun Replica (Green Gas Powered) - Black [Golden Eagle]

The Golden Eagle 8880 gas-powered airsoft shotgun is a compact replica inspired by the M870 shotgun design, powered by Green Gas and intended for dynamic short-range airsoft games, particularly CQB. The replica combines a pump-action mechanism capable of firing 3 or 6 BBs simultaneously, an aluminum M-LOCK pump fore-end with a factory-installed finger stop, and three 6.01 mm inner barrels, allowing convenient handling in confined spaces.

Construction and Materials

The Golden Eagle 8880 is a gas-powered M870-style airsoft shotgun measuring ~470 mm in length and weighing ~1910 g. Its compact design with a pistol grip makes maneuvering easier during CQB games.

The replica features a metal receiver with an individual serial number located on the receiver and a metal outer barrel with an external diameter of ~22.9 mm, allowing the installation of compatible airsoft tracer units. The construction combines metal, aluminum, and polymer components and is based on the TM standard used in gas-powered shotguns of this type.

The aluminum pump fore-end features M-LOCK mounting slots, allowing the installation of compatible accessories such as tactical flashlights or foregrips. A factory-installed finger stop is positioned at the front of the fore-end, helping reduce the risk of the support hand slipping forward during cycling.

A RIS rail with 10 mounting slots is located on top of the receiver, allowing the installation of a compatible red dot sight.

Gas Power and Pump-Action Mechanism

The Golden Eagle 8880 uses Green Gas power and a manually operated pump-action mechanism that replicates the handling of an M870-style pump-action shotgun.

After each shot, the pump fore-end must be pulled fully rearward and then pushed forward to prepare the mechanism for the next shot.

The gas-powered system requires less force to cycle than spring-powered shotgun designs, making repeated cycling easier during dynamic gameplay.

3 or 6 BB Firing System

The replica's mechanism allows users to select between firing 3 or 6 BBs simultaneously with a single trigger pull.

The firing mode selector is located beneath the dummy ejection port cover. Pulling the pump fore-end fully rearward provides access to the selector, allowing the number of BBs fired per shot to be changed without disassembling the replica.

The selectable firing mode allows users to adjust the number of BBs fired according to the type of gameplay and their preferences.

Inner Barrels and Hop-Up System

The Golden Eagle 8880 features three dedicated aluminum inner barrels, each measuring 150 mm in length and 6.01 mm in diameter.

The replica is equipped with a fixed hop-up system featuring a polymer chamber and dedicated hop-up buckings. The system applies backspin to the BBs during firing, helping stabilize their flight trajectory.

Shot Shell Magazines and Loading System

The replica uses spring-powered shot shell magazines made of ABS plastic, designed to resemble shotgun shells. Each magazine holds 30 airsoft BBs.

To access the magazine compartment, press the button located at the front of the trigger guard. This releases the loading port cover, allowing a shot shell magazine to be inserted into the replica.

The package includes three 30-BB magazines and a speedloader for easier loading.

Ergonomics and Iron Sights

The replica's compact construction and contoured pistol grip make the shotgun easier to handle indoors, in narrow passages, and during dynamic CQB games.

A sling attachment point is located near the pistol grip, allowing the installation of a tactical sling.

The replica features mechanical iron sights consisting of a front sight and rear notch sight with green fiber-optic inserts. These help users align the sights quickly under available lighting conditions.

A cross-bolt safety is located at the rear of the trigger guard, allowing the trigger mechanism to be secured against accidental firing.
