TOKYO MARUI MK23 VS NOVRISTCH SSX23 REVIEW - FULLY TESTED

Now that's how to review. Full of the relevant content. Great work

[@FOXGREEN]

Thanks 😎👊

[@CalebImmel]

Did I just hear a European say "inch" without any hesitation?

[@FOXGREEN]

Haha in Ireland here we used deal in inches a few years ago so we can rattle off either inches or millimeters with ease. But don't ask me Degrees Fahrenheit vs Celsius 🤣

Bro....AMERICA was a BRITISH colony not so long ago! You have the Imperial system from EUROPE.

[@crusaderkiller5816]

The word has been ruined by phalas obsessed individuals.

[@Allegro_Giusto]

Dispite the metric systems, we use inches, metres, centimetres, yards (less so), miles, ft. The main difference is regarding temp and people’s weight - you guys use pounds we use stone, but we do use pounds for meat for example. Not that different really.

[@Alemann89]

Great video and thorough review! A few tips on measuring sound: 1. Never measure at point blank range, the pressure wave from the muzzle will register as sound. In most fields of engineering 1m away is standard. With an air gun you might need to measure at an even further distance to get a coherent result. Like 3m, so the air puff dissipates. 2. Never measure with a mic directly next to a surface, adds 3-6db intensity, due to rebound/compression near surface. Ideally the microphone should be suspended at least 1 meter from any surface, ideally on a tripod, but sitting on a ledge or edge of a table, handrail, is good enough. Put the phone on a ledge, hold the gun at the same height/level, 3m away, pointing right at the mic. 3. Measuring outside will provide a better recording and cleaner curve since there are no room reverbs etc. Unless there is wind or noise. That way you can see the difference in characteristics much clearer. 4. If you do more of these reviews consider getting a calibrated microphone, like the 3.5mm plug Dayton Audio iMM-6 Calibrated Measurement Microphone for 20 dollars. It is light years better, almost considered legit for serious stuff. +- 1 dB error. 5. With a proper mic, check if C weighing can be enabled in the app. Usually a standard feature with A/C selectable. C is a weighted sum/"equalization" that preserves low frequency content at relatively flat levels. A ignores a lot of low freq content. Low Freq, the "thump", is what is hardest to suppress and travels further.

I will be honest, it was this review that sold me on the SSX23 and I absolutely love it. Been buying gear for my son and I so doubling up on costs. Wanted a pistol that performs well out of the box with next to zero faff. The SSX23 absolutely delivers. Yes I have fired the others and do like elements of the Tm and ASG etc but I am happy with my ssx23.

[@FOXGREEN]

I am glad my review was all that it said it was. Nov guns make sense if you just want an upgraded gun that works put if the box. Sure you can do it yourself also but it usualy costs more that way. 👍

I mean I brought the asg mk23 because I don’t see the point in paying like 2-3x more for branding and getting the same parts inside

[@robinpohl2702]

Well tbh I really love the mk23 and I would appreciate it. Doesn't mean the gun is any worse for Airsoft, I think novritsch delivers great guns to play with and avoids unessecary expenses. That's for everybody to decide for themselves but I do appreciate the thorough rewiev.

[@DaUnforgiven1]

So here is the real difference. The tm version can accept all of the wii tech internal upgrades. Clones can not accept the left side action bar

[@FOXGREEN]

But the novrtisch doesn't need upgrades so....

[@DaUnforgiven1]

@@FOXGREEN oh but it does. You don’t end up with a top tier product by combining the lowest quality of parts. And that’s exactly what novristch did. Took the cheapest mk23 on the market. Put a tdc mod and some fiber optics and sells it for 4 times the price. FYI. Novristch’s base gun for ssx23 is $50 for gun, mag and power up suppressor. He does t even use hadron keys for the mod. The plastic is super easy to break the gun hates tracers and bio bbs with a passion You can buy a brand new TM and probably upgrade it to a higher degree for what it cost to buy ssx23 and just the suppressor Plus novs mags are absolute trash

[@DaUnforgiven1]

@@FOXGREEN keep in mind I own both guns. And novs gun with all wii tech upgrades is still outperformed by bone stock Tm

[@DaUnforgiven1]

@@FOXGREEN quite the opposite. The gun is trash. Lowest quality parts used Bone stock Tm will be far more reliable than ssx23 Novs mags are utter garbage The gun body is not formed with great tolerances or compounds so it’s brittle and can break with minimal impact. I own both and play airsoft very regularly. Novs hates tracer bbs and bio bbs. Jams all the time. Tm never jams

[@herllraiser6662]

I bought the ssx23 (£123) and ive got a asg mk23 (£60), the 1st day out i had problems with ssx23, the mag switch failed losing a mag in field, yes it also had feed lips problems out of the box cheap cheap cheap. You didnt take it apart, i can tell you there is no difference between the cheap asg mk23 and ssx23. My advice is buy the asg mk23 and tech it, cut one of the mag release buttons off left or right depends on you, use a peice of velcro stuck to the bottom back of the cheap mags this helps not loosing mags, doesnt work for tm mags. Buy the nov silencer and bottem rail they fit the asg. Use a long barrel so it goes into the silencer you'll have to drill out asg to allow this 8mm drill bit, fit the hadron duel screw with fang with the og hop up plate, all explained on the "snipermechic" website. In the end you will spend less and get more than buying what is a asg in wolfs clothing. I sent my ssx23 back for a refund i cant trust that again.

[@herllraiser6662]

Right got a refund of only the ssx23 back, no refund of postage to post my faulty gun £18 or lost mag £24 due to their fault. So im £42 down. Thanks novristch well done in ripping off a normal customer the ones who pays for your lifestyle.

[@chris_ackroyd]

I’ve just done the same to my ASG (not tried out yet ) Maple leaf Decepticon @50 degree H plate Single screw hop up plate & Hadron cover plate Only thing is I’m undecided about the barrel Crazy jet mod?? One down side is the top slide no longer free slides and the hadron cover plate does not move under as the original did. However as I’m not going to be cycling the slide during real game play I’m not sure if it’s really worth worrying about. Excellent video btw (ignoring the mic wind noise😁)...any chance you can review how to upgrade a G36?.

[@herllraiser6662]

Chris Ackroyd well mine has 220 crazy jet barrel the end of the barrel is hidden in the silencer. Go slow with the drill bit 8mm and use a round file if it won’t fit till it does . slow and steady wins the race . I don’t have any probs with the top slide over my hadron, one thing I must say is lube the shit out of it, ssx23 was dry as the goby desert had sticky trigger from the word go.

[@chris_ackroyd]

hellraiser6662 - suggestions for lube (Airsoft only please🙄)? Specific or will a wd40 silicon spray work - or graphite powder (as used in locks)? Ta!

@@chris_ackroyd well on the bottom part its the mech part i uses gun oil in a spray, same as what people use on real guns that kill stuff haha that works a treat, ive seen others use gun oil as well for mech parts on airsoft guns. But if you got silicon spray sitting around i cant see why not in using it or that ptfe spray (use that on my srs).. as long as its luded you are good to go. But any light lube spray should be good on mech parts.

One reason it might be bare of markings is due to the USA restrictions. I know when I bought the TM MK23 all the markings were scraped or melted off. Good idea if it saves you the hassle.

Great review! There seems to be lots of hate for Novritsch lately but my SSX has been great. Literally the only gun I haven’t stared to upgrade within a week of buying it.

FOX GREEN yeah it’s a shame as it was something that is a know thing with the MK23 even before the SSX. That’s Airsoft! 😂

[@nigelfarrugia8303]

Don't agree on one thing, the hadron TDC that comes with the SSX-23 makes it shoot slightly to the left, bought a twin screw TDC and problem solved. Also for everyone looking into getting an SSX-23 get ready to face Double feeding issues, loosing the spring which is underneath the mag release, drastic FPS drops because the bucking is sooo loose. These are all facts which you can also find on the SSX-23 Owners fb group. However grate vid mate.

[@FOXGREEN]

Thanks man this gun didnt have those issues but it's not to say that others dont. I like to think that the test showed it performed similar to the mk 23 here. Glad you enjoyed it.

It doesn't come with a Hadron TDC as Hadron has stated. You have to upgrade it to a Hadron. But the rest is so true.

"Cheaper" Although you still have to buy the Suppressor? Also done my own testings and at range tests over 50m the TM just comes into it's own my personal TM using .48's can push 70m whereas I'm yet to see the SSX do anything similar.

[@FOXGREEN]

Ya still cheaper worry the silencer included see 25:35 the chart summary wit costs. Possibly it appears as though the tm and ssx were close in the hop up test where i was shooting them out to 60 m distance. You should make a video like me and see if the tm wins out I am sure people would be interested 👍

@@FOXGREEN Have you gotten a chance to check out the SSP18 yet? I'm torn one getting either the SSX23 or the SSP18. I've never had a full auto airsoft gun, so the SSP18 would open up more options for me gameplay wise, but I'm usually a stealthy sniper so the SSX23 appeals to me for obvious reasons. Last game I used my old Crossman C11 and from about 40ft or so it took the guys I snuck up on 5 seconds to figure out where I was. Really curious as to how close one would have to be to an SSX23 and SSP18 firing to be able to locate them based off retort.

@@RoidRvge well if I dont name them like that people just won't click on them 😁. In ireland all guns even snipers are 1 joule only so we dont have a minimum engagement distance. So I can shoot someone with it point blank and it's perfectly fine over here. With 1 joule for all guns playing as a sniper means you have no range advantage and way less fire power you it's much more of a skill over here but I like the challenge of it 😁 The insane kill streak was insane I shot 37 people with no deaths and the impossible mission took 1.5 years before we completed it so it is true what I am saying I explain it in the video 😁

[@userjt]

Thanks for this great info. Your sound level test should have at least six feet of distance to the measuring device. Close proximity creates the greatest sound pressure variation from the slightest angle and distance difference to the muzzle. Greater distance will also allow the longest / lowest frequencies to be included in the measurement. Lower freq's travel the greatest distance revealing the initial direction / location of an opponent.

Excellent comparison. Very detailed!

Very good solid review mate.. well done 👏👏

Cheers man 😎👍

From looking at the prices, the tokyo marui is actually cheaper because u need to spend 40 euros to get the supressor on the novritch one (marui is sent with suppressor already)

[@FOXGREEN]

If you look at the end summary if you want the tm to perform the same as the SSX23 you have to buy a good few upgrades so when you consider that like I do in the end summary table the SSX 23 is cheaper even with the addition of the suppressor. You also need the knowledge to know what to buy fro the tm upgrade wise and then need to install yourself. Just consider that also 👍

[@gligoratanasovski3329]

Excellent video. Maybe an additional comparison between these 2 and the cheaper stti mk23?

[@FOXGREEN]

If I can get hands on one I defiently will thanks 👍

[@gligoratanasovski3329]

@@FOXGREEN Awesome, will wait for it.

[@DeadlyTigers]

Great video, lots of details, but a change i'd suggest, would be to fire the guns with a BB in each shot, as well as having the decibel measurer and gun in a constant and locked distance from eachother. During the test you performed, your phone was visibly moved with each shot, ans that could make a sound, increasing the sound. Otherwise, great

[@FOXGREEN]

Good Idea I will do that next time :)

[@pomeroy7]

Great review. Thanks for sharing.

[@Ollie_-so2gy]

for the sound test u should actually put your finger over the end by 3/4 to simulate a bb

I understand your emotional attachment to the mk23 But Novritsch version is superior. Higher quality materials, well thought through features, and overall cheaper since you would still need to buy upgrades for the tokyo marui. The rail system is super nice and the flashlight..well... you saw it. Quality made by an Austrian

[@FOXGREEN]

Did you watch this whole review at all? I concluded saying if I had to pick I'd pick Novritschs one over the Tokyo Marui one. Please watch the entire review and check the summary at the end before comment.This review is noted as the most non biased review out there because of the tests I conduct. I know it is a long video but you actually have to watch the entire video. Kind Regards, Fox Green.

[@Chitario]

@@FOXGREEN I did watch the whole thing. I think you did a good job comparing them. You said they perform very similar, which is true, and that the ssp is a bit better. But in my opinion, the ssp is by FAR the better version. Had the chance to shoot both of them, and as you said, the higher quality materials and features really make a difference. A friend of mine, for example, had trouble with gas leaks on the original mk23 mags. On the other hand, he could torture the ssp mags and fill them only with CO2 without ever having any issues. What makes the difference is, that Tokyo Marui is a big company producing larger quantities, while Novitsch's company is fairly small, focusing on precision and high quality, improving already existing guns, while listening to what people really need

[@louiejames8485]

the LLM section doesn't really count to be honest because the olight is a 80pounds+ extra but good review otherwise

[@Pakistani-kl8uj]

Thank you for that review. I was looking so hard for a review with decibel test as I look for a really quiet gun for at home. So I’ve heard that spring guns are around 80 dB too, so that means if this works without any complaints, then I could go with the Novritsch. Btw, can you test the ASG MK23? It would be cheaper and if it is just as quiet I would save a lot of money.

[@FOXGREEN]

I dont have an ASG if I get one I will try it out for sure 👍

[@oscarshen6855]

The ASG MK23 "supressor" is not really a supressor, it's a extented barrel. So it shoots as loud as a unsupressed gun, but it's much more powerfull.

[@LegionarHR]

Thanks for the video, but I dont understand why did you put in name of the video: fully tested… and you tested 3bbs on tm and 5bbs on nov on 10meters, I was expecting to see 10-20-30-40-50-60-70+ meters…

[@FOXGREEN]

I carried out a range test and a grouping test . 2 seprate tests for the following very good reasons. Why shoot it at different ranges my hand holding the gun would interrupt the results. So to rule out any biased I clamped the gun in a vice to test out its true accuracy at a shorter range indoors i.e. no wind to test it truely by looking at groupings. This is the same way real rifles are factory tested in doors at shorter range so see how accurate they are. Longer shots outside held by a person don't tell you a guns accuracy they tell you the skill of the shooter using the gun to hit a target by factoring in all the external factors so pointless basically in a true accuracy test of the gun itself. Outdoors and longer range with a airsoft gun will give you scewed results due to wind and other factors basically. I then showed you the guns range wise that they both can send bbs a long way for a pistol but realistically you will not be shooting people further than 40 m with them 9 times out of 10 so my tests accounted for this and were chosen for good reason. The fully tested part comes from the fact not only was accuracy, and range tested but also sound (the biggest selling point of this gun) and the weight of the trigger pull which is quite heavy in these guns and effects accuracy the most also when paired with a person using it in the field. Before this review no other person tested all of these items and now it has set the new standard for airsoft gun reviews.

The TM is not licensed by HK. HK sold rights to Airsoft licensing to Umarex, who currently have KWA make ‘Official HK ‘ GBB MK23’s and someone else Springers. TM make products for Japan only, they don’t deal with overseas, and as such don’t give a stuff about international copyright laws. Ironically TM’s HK Trades are more realistic than Umarex ones

Was looking for KWA mk23 stuff, and came across this. Good review for these two but I gotta ask : think you can source a KWA mk23 and compare all three? I know these don't have slides that move so they're more "silent" but I'm more interested in general performance. Again, thorough review and very handy for those of us trying to decide between the different guns

Hello, does the SSX23 still shoot accurately if it is over-hopped? My SSX23's bbs sometimes go to the left if I use too much hop-up.

[@FOXGREEN]

Its does shoot good but over hopping is just going to lift your bbs too high so don't overhop your bbs you want a flat trajectory

[@danielp4206]

@@FOXGREEN Ok. thanks.

[@fubene5495]

@@danielp4206 Maybe too late, but anyways, if you feel your bbs always go to the same side with high hop-up, its not about the hop-up or the gun, is about the way you hold your gun, probably you lean slightly to the right, the higher the hop-up and the longer the distance this "turning" effect will become bigger the bbs will fly high and turning to the side you are leaning your gun, if you grab the gun completly straight the bbs will just fly flat or will flat high if you overhop. Another cause probably will be bbs quality, not perfectly round bbs can turn, but the "turns" will be random depending on where the flaw is in the bb.

Another plus I must say is when you buy Novritsch products, you buy Novritsch customer support which is a major plus because they are stellar if you have any issues with any of their products if you do manage to snag a lemon. VS other retailers that sell TM products (or any airsoft branded product) or TM directly where your mileage can vary substantially in my experience.
