Umarex XBG Carbine and Combat Zone Enforcer Review

The Uramex XBG and the Combat Zone Enforcer are two very similar guns. In fact, they are the same gun, if you ignore the difference in inner barrel size. The formal shoots standard 0.177" metal BB's, while the latter shoots standard 6mm airsoft plastic BB's. But other than that difference, there is no practical difference between the two.

In this article, we will thoroughly review these two air pistols, side-by-side. We will also throw in the Umarex carbine conversion kit for these two pistols as a real bonus.

CO2 Compartment

The CO2 canister compartment is in the handgrip. To get to it, you simply pull open the handgrip back. Inside, the compartment is made out of metal (see photo below). It seems that only the outer shell of the XBG and Combat Zone Enforcer is made of out plastic polymer. The internals is all metal.

To insert the CO2 cartridge, you have to unscrew the CO2 canister locking screw (see photo below). Counter-clockwise unscrews it. After placing the CO2 canister into the compartment, you screw it down by turning this locking screw clockwise.

From the experiences I have with CO2 airsoft guns, the Combat Zone Enforce is the only CO2 airsoft gun that doesn't leak. It has sat on the shelf with the very first CO2 canister I secured in it for a month and a half. So far, it still fires airsoft BB with that original CO2 canister.
