Overview
Built around a tactical pump-action shotgun configuration, the Golden Eagle M8870 is designed for players who want a more realistic manual operating experience than a conventional electric rifle provides.
The shotgun feeds from reusable 30-round removable airsoft shotgun shells. Unlike a conventional AEG magazine, each shell acts as the BB magazine while the shotgun's separate 12g CO2 power system provides the propellant.
A selector located inside the chamber switches the system between 3-shot and 6-shot operation. This lets the player choose between conserving ammunition with three BBs per shot or producing a wider six-BB pattern.

Technical Specifications
An internal chamber selector changes the M8870 between three-BB and six-BB firing modes, allowing the player to balance ammunition consumption and pattern size.
30-Round Shell-Fed System
The Golden Eagle M8870 feeds from removable 30-round airsoft shotgun shells. Each shell stores the BB ammunition while the shotgun's CO2 system provides the power required to fire.
With a 30-round shell, 3-shot mode provides up to approximately 10 trigger pulls before reloading the shell, while 6-shot mode provides up to approximately 5 trigger pulls.
The standard package includes three 30-round shotgun shells, providing 90 rounds of total shell capacity when all three are fully loaded.
Metal Construction & Tactical Sighting System
The M8870 features a metal receiver, metal outer barrel and metal magazine tube, giving the platform a more substantial construction than lightweight polymer-only shotgun designs.
Integrated ghost ring iron sights provide a fast sight picture, while the Weaver/Picatinny top rail allows compatible optics and accessories to be mounted when desired.
