Full Auto, All Weather Performance: Novritsch SSE18 Gen. 2 AEP Pistol

Looking for a sidearm that doesn’t care whether it’s summer, winter, wet or dry? The Novritsch SSE18 Gen. 2 Full Auto Pistol takes the proven SSE18 concept and combines the aggressive styling of the SSP18 with a reliable LiPo-powered AEP system. With both semi-auto and full-auto fire, a fixed slide and an efficient electric power system, the SSE18 is built for players who want dependable performance without relying on gas or CO2.

The Gen. 2 version brings a number of worthwhile improvements, including an upgraded MOSFET, improved BB retention, a metal hop-up arm and enhanced grip and frame construction. The result is a compact electric pistol with fast trigger response, a high rate of fire and consistent performance across a much wider range of temperatures than a conventional gas blowback sidearm.

It also comes loaded with features that make it particularly versatile. The 6.01mm inner barrel, adjustable hop-up, threaded barrel, fibre optic sights, flat trigger and Picatinny/NATO accessory rail give you plenty of options for setting the pistol up to suit your playing style. It is also compatible with most Glock-style holsters, making it easy to integrate into an existing loadout.

The “Pro” Take

The SSE18 makes a lot of sense for players who want a genuinely dependable sidearm rather than something that needs to be treated differently depending on the weather. Gas pistols can become noticeably less consistent as temperatures fall, whereas the SSE18’s electric system simply needs a charged battery.

The Gen. 2 MOSFET is particularly important here. It gives the pistol a noticeably more responsive electrical system, while the ball-bearing drivetrain helps it achieve an impressive rate of fire for such a compact platform. Having full-auto available also makes the SSE18 particularly useful when you need to put multiple BBs down quickly in close quarters.

Then there is the modular side of the design. The threaded barrel gives you the option of adding a tracer or compatible suppressor, the accessory rail accepts a light, and Novritsch offers an extended 90-round magazine as well as an optional red dot mount and carbine conversion system. It can therefore remain a simple sidearm or become the basis of a more specialised compact build.

UK Spec & Site Performance

Novritsch rates the SSE18 Gen. 2 at under 0.5 Joule, with an approximate output of 220 FPS using 0.20g BBs. This makes it particularly well suited to close-quarters environments and sites where lower-power replicas are required. Actual chrono readings can vary depending on BB weight, battery condition and individual replica condition.

The SSE18 uses a 7.4V LiPo battery, which is not included with the pistol. A suitable LiPo battery and compatible charger will therefore be required before the pistol can be used. Always check your chosen site’s current power limits and rules before attending a game.

Friendly FAQ

Is the SSE18 a gas blowback pistol?
No. The SSE18 is an AEP – Automatic Electric Pistol. It uses an internal electric system powered by a LiPo battery rather than gas or CO2.

Does the SSE18 have full-auto?
Yes. The Gen. 2 SSE18 can be switched between semi-auto and full-auto fire.

Does the slide move when firing?
The SSE18 uses a fixed-slide AEP design. This allows the electric mechanism to concentrate on reliable BB propulsion rather than powering a gas blowback cycle.

What battery does it use?
Novritsch recommends its V7 7.4V 600mAh AEP LiPo battery. The battery and charger are not included with the pistol.

How many BBs does the standard magazine hold?
The supplied standard magazine holds 29 BBs. A Gen. 2 extended magazine holding 90 BBs is also available separately.

Can I fit a tracer unit or suppressor?
Yes. The SSE18 features a threaded barrel designed to accept compatible suppressors and tracer units.

Can I mount a red dot sight?
Yes. An optional SSE18 red dot mount is available, allowing a compatible compact optic to be fitted.

Is the SSE18 good for cold weather?
This is one of its biggest advantages. Because it is electrically powered rather than gas operated, the SSE18 does not suffer from the same cold-weather gas performance issues associated with many GBB pistols.
