Action Army Ruger MKII Gas Blowback Pistol (AAP01C - SHORT - Black)
Experience the thrill of full-auto fire with the Action Army Ruger MKII Gas Blowback Pistol, a compact
Compact, aggressive, and ready for CQB dominance.
The Action Army AAP-01C "Shinobi" is the evolved, compact sibling of the legendary AAP-01. Designed specifically for Close Quarters Battle (CQB), this "Short" version trims the length for easier maneuverability while adding significant ergonomic upgrades. The most notable improvement is the redesigned upper receiver, which now features integrated top and bottom 20mm rails for optics and flashlights right out of the box—no extra adapters needed. With a new, easily accessible fire selector switch on the back of the bolt, switching between Semi and Full-Auto is faster and smoother than ever. It keeps the same G-Series magazine compatibility you love but packages it into an even tighter, more tactical profile.
The Shinobi: Evolution of a Classic
If the original AAP-01 was a game-changer, the Action Army AAP-01C (Compact) Shinobi is the refined, specialist tool. Action Army listened to player feedback and produced a variant that addresses the most common custom modifications players were doing themselves. The result is a pistol that feels purpose-built for high-speed gameplay and tight environments.
Integrated Tactical Rails Gone is the need to buy separate rail sections. The AAP-01C features a moulded upper receiver with a full-length top Picatinny rail and a lower under-barrel rail. This means you can slap on a Red Dot Sight and a weapon light immediately, making it a formidable primary weapon for indoor sites or a highly capable backup.
Improved Fire Selector One of the few gripes with the original model was the fire selector hidden under the bolt. The Shinobi fixes this with a redesigned, accessible selector switch located on the rear of the bolt assembly. This allows for much faster transitions between Semi-Auto precision and Full-Auto suppression without needing to rack the bolt or fiddle with hidden switches.
Compact Powerhouse The shorter barrel length reduces the overall profile, making it easier to draw from a holster or tuck into a chest rig. Despite the size reduction, it retains the incredible gas efficiency and snappy recoil impulse of its predecessor. The body is still made from durable, lightweight fibre-reinforced polymer, ensuring it won't weigh you down during all-day skirmishes.
Compatibility Retained Crucially, the AAP-01C retains compatibility with G-Series magazines (TM/WE spec). If you already run a Glock setup or own an original AAP-01, your magazines will work perfectly here.
