Lancer Tactical Tandemkross CTHULHU Gas Blowback Pistol (R702)

Want to buy a realistic-looking black airsoft gun (RIF) from onlyBBguns? Because these guns look so real, UK law (the VCRA Act) requires you to have a valid reason, called a "defence," to own one. Essentially, you need to prove you're buying it for airsoft skirmishing (the sport itself), not for any other purpose.

Here's how you can demonstrate your defence to onlyBBguns and buy a black airsoft gun:

  1. Show proof of skirmishing: Gather evidence like photos and videos from airsoft games you've participated in. These should clearly show you actively involved in skirmishing, demonstrating your intent to use the gun for the sport.
  2. Become a registered skirmisher: The easiest way to prove your defence is by joining a recognized airsoft association and getting a membership card. The most common one in the UK is UKARA. This registration confirms you're a legitimate airsoft player.

Don't have either of those? No problem! You can still buy the airsoft gun. onlyBBguns can paint it in a two-tone colour scheme. This means part of the gun will be sprayed a bright, non-realistic colour. This makes the gun a "non-realistic imitation firearm" and avoids the restrictions of the VCRA Act. Anyone over 18 can legally buy a two-tone airsoft gun.

Competition Features and CNC Precision

Every external component of the CTHULHU is designed for speed and tactical superiority. The aggressively styled CNC "Game Changer Pro Squared" Compensator not only completes the race aesthetic but also covers the 14mm CCW male threaded outer barrel, making it ready for any tracer unit or suppressor upgrade. For control, the integrated "Cornerstone" CNC Thumb Rest (Gas Pedal) and the textured Tandemkross Hivegrip lock the shooter's hand in place, helping manage the snappy recoil delivered by the lightweight, CNC-machined bolt carrier. The Skeletonized Competition Trigger provides a flat face and short travel distance, enabling the fast, razor-sharp response critical for rapid semi-auto fire strings.

Unbeatable Compatibility and Versatility

The core internal mechanism of the CTHULHU is a revolutionary feature: it is fully compatible with the massive ecosystem of Action Army AAP-01 upgrade parts. This grants the user unparalleled access to aftermarket components, from TDC hop-up units and high-flow valves to enhanced springs, ensuring the pistol is completely future-proof for custom tuning. The pistol also features fully functional Semi-Automatic and Full-Automatic firing modes, easily switched via the fire selector, transforming it into a high-rate-of-fire option for CQB emergencies. Furthermore, the included Red Dot Mount Plate and adjustable "Eagle Eye" Fiber Optic Sights ensure immediate readiness for any sighting system

Customisable Features

The upper is a unique Lancer design featuring a spiral-fluted outer barrel, removable 20mm Picatinny rail and 14mm CCW male threaded outer barrel ready for tracers, compensators or suppressors. The set includes the “Game Changer Pro” compensator, the red metallic “Halo” ring charging handle and a micro red-dot sight plate (RMR/Docter/Noblex footprints supported) all supplied in a protective polymer hard case.

Aethetic Excellence

Down low, the licensed Tandemkross lower provides the “Hive Grip” hex texture, a skeletonised competition trigger with overtravel adjustment, the large “Titan” magazine release, the extended “Bolt Keeper” and a gas-pedal style thumb rest — all designed for ultra-fast, repeatable target acquisition and control during rapid fire. Practicality meets flair: ambidextrous controls, repositionable receiver rail (mount on bottom), adjustable sights, lanyard loop and a threaded barrel make this pistol as usable as it is eye-catching.

Out of the box the CTHULHU is ready to run, tune and show off — and because it’s AAP-01 compatible internally, parts and performance upgrades are widely available for players who want more.

Two tone
We can two tone any weapon we sell at Bespoke Airsoft. The purpose for two toning is if you do not hold a valid defense under the Violent Crimes Reduction Act (VCRA, 2006) which is to prevent the misuse of Replica Weapons, which applies in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The gun will be sprayed 51% in a bright/primary color (we do only blue, green and red currently). The process of two toning currently runs at 2 working days depending on Drying Time, which is effected by Ambient Temperature and Weather. and currently no express delivery is available for this even if you select it at checkout.

FAQs

1.     What is a BB gun used for?  BB guns are mostly used for practice shooting and training. The stronger ones (i.e. Air Rifles) can also control pests or hunt small animals.

2.     Do you need a Licence in the UK for a BB gun? No, you don't need a licence for a BB gun in the UK, but there are rules. The BB Gun needs to be in two colours; one has to be a primary. All our guns are on the website as per default.

3.     Is a BB gun a good weapon?   BB guns, despite sometimes being seen as toys, can be dangerous. They fire pellets at high speeds and can cause serious harm, or even be deadly in some situations.

4.     Can you shoot BB guns in public in the UK without a Firearm license? BB guns in the UK navigate a legal grey area. While certain models, notably low-power 'soft air' types, typically evade classification as section 1 firearms, more potent versions may require a valid firearms certificate to avoid legal repercussions.

5.     Can you shoot a BB gun in your garden? You can use a BB gun in your garden under UK law, but you have to ensure the pellets don't go into your neighbour's yard, plot or land. If they do and you don't have permission, it's against the law.

6.     Which UK law am I breaking if the pellets go into my neighbour's law without permission?  If your BB gun pellets go into your neighbour's yard without permission, you're breaking UK laws. Specifically, the 1968 Firearms Act and possibly the 2003 Anti-Social Behaviour Act, because you may be causing your neighbours trouble or worry.
