April Staff Picks: No Theme, Just Good Gear

It’s that time again—Staff Picks, where the crew at Vector Air highlight the kit we’re genuinely excited about. This month’s selection? A bit of a mixed bag. No real theme, no fancy tie-in, just solid bits of gear we either use or would happily spend our own money on. Let’s jump in.
Craig's Pick: Vector Optics Paragon 4x24 Prismatic Scope
Irony of the month: Craig finally fell in love with the Paragon after selling our last one. It was Luke’s January pick, and since then, it’s quietly become one of our most requested optics—until we ran out.
What’s the fuss about? It’s a compact 4x prismatic scope with crystal-clear glass, a BDC reticle, and a surprising field of view. It’s like the Immersive Optics scopes we’ve backed for ages—brilliant light transmission, short and tidy. Add an RMR red dot on top and boom, you've got a seriously slick dual-sight setup.
Sadly, it’s out of stock at the time of writing, but the back-in-stock alerts are already pinging like mad. Don’t sleep on it.
Tee's Pick: APOLLO Reinforced Pellet Trap / Target Holder
Tee’s gone practical this month with a product that’s taken over the old-school funnel traps. These reinforced APOLLO traps are compact, mountable, and ideal for backyard plinking.
They’ve got built-in ricochet dampeners and a nice snug fit for standard paper targets. With more young shooters getting into the sport (especially now the ICONIX is selling out), these are a great choice for safe and simple home setups.
Karls Pick: Vector Optics X-ACCU Scope Mount Accessory Kit
This one needs a bit of explaining… but once you get it, you’ll see why Karl picked it. If you’ve got an X-ACCU mount, this lets you swap the top clamps for accessory rails or even direct red dot mounts.
It saves space, weight, and faff—especially useful with compact scopes. Whether it’s a red dot, torch, or laser, this system gives you all the versatility of a tactical rig without the bulk. HFT, TAC12, pest control? This kit’s a winner.
Luke's Pick: UMAREX SD4 Rifle Silencer
Luke’s gone quiet… literally. He’s picked the SD4 silencer from UMAREX, a dual-thread moderator for both airguns and airsoft. While we haven’t put it through live-fire tests yet, initial impressions on PCP and gas dry-firing are promising.
Built well, lightweight, and with two adapters (½" UNF & 14mm CCW), it’s versatile too. Just don’t expect miracles with blowback guns—and definitely don’t try to get it posted to your house. We checked. That’s a no-no.
Final Thoughts
This month’s lineup proves you don’t need a theme to spotlight good gear. Whether you’re upgrading your optic game, tightening up your garden range, or experimenting with red dots and silencers, we’ve got something worth a second look.
Maybe it’s time for a little kit refresh? Or just something new to play with. Either way, these picks are tried, tested, and backed by the team. As always, hit the links to browse, and keep your eyes on our social feeds for more.

Innovations in no-verification casinos demonstrate state-of-the-art payment techniques. The incorporation of real-time banking technologies such as iDEAL into several Dutch websites ensures casinos without id verification instant deposits and withdrawals. Customers should verify the platform's trustworthiness and transaction policies, even when speed is beneficial, to avoid any unpleasant shocks or unforeseen expenses.
I stumbled upon this site after digging around for casinos that accept Visa – I just didn’t want to go through complicated payment methods anymore. That’s how I ended up on https://www.casino-sistersite.co.uk/visa-casinos/ while reading a random Reddit thread. What I liked most is how smoothly the deposits worked. No BS, no waiting days. Made a few spins on a slot and boom – first win. Honestly, finding a list of Visa-friendly casinos saved me a lot of nerves. Simple pleasures matter when you just want to chill after work and play a few rounds.
I was sending money to my sister in Nepal for her wedding dress from overseas. Needed a site that’s safe and not too complex. Came upon money transfer to nepal , and it’s got a nice layout that’s easy to navigate. Their fees are minimal, and transfers are quick, which is perfect for family gifts. I stick with it because it’s dependable and makes special occasions easier.
