EMG TTI 2011 Sand Viper

 This EMG TTI 2011 Sand Viper airsoft replica is identical to the TTI 2011 Sand Viper, which in turn is a redesign of the Pit Viper that was created specifically for John Wick Chapter 4 (a movie) by Taran Tactical Innovations. Taran Butler, winner of a vast number of shooting competitions and the founder of TTI, has developed combat pistols for the spectacular action franchise before. This Sand-variant differs on just two points from the Pit Viper: the bronze colour and the optical cut that replaces the open sights.

The Sand Viper airsoft replica is based on an actual firearm, so realism was the aim when assembling this replica. Naturally, there’s a gas blowback system that provides the replica with a good recoil. The CNC machined aluminium slide darts back and forth with each and every shot and you can definitely feel it. There’s a single port compensator at the front end of the barrel shroud that reduces recoil for the firearm counterpart. The compensator doesn’t really have a function with the EMG TTI 2011 Sand Viper airsoft replica, but the designers did put it on to stick as close to the original Sand Viper as possible.

The barrel shroud has 11 mm internal CW thread that allows you to mount a suppressor or a tracer unit onto the Sand Viper airsoft replica. There’s a Weaver/Picatinny accessory rail beneath the fore-end that you can use to mount a lamp or a laser. The EMG TTI 2011 Sand Viper airsoft replica has a horizontally and vertically adjustable rear sight, that you can use in conjunction with the front sight that has a brightly illuminated, green optic fibre.

The grip is made of synthetic material that has a stippled texture for added grip. The flared magwell also provides grip and makes it incredibly easy to switch magazines. A protruding magazine eject button ensures the 30 BBs magazine can easily be ejected.

The EMG TTI 2011 Sand Viper airsoft replica has a safety pin located just beneath the hammer, that can be manually operated from both sides. The replica has a grip safety that needs to be actively pushed in, in order to actually shoot with the replica. This makes it impossible to pull the trigger without holding the Sand Viper replica properly, even if you’ve already disengaged the safety.
