Ares is an airsoft manufacturer that is famous for its electric airsoft guns and spring action sniper rifles, although they never did dabble with making full gas airsoft guns, they did release CO2 conversion kits for some of the spring action sniper rifles... Until now! The ARES S&W 686 CO2 Revolver is Ares' first gas airsoft pistol in the form of a CO2-powered revolver. Revolvers in airsoft are nothing new, there are many systems from different manufacturers, and CO2 revolvers are definitely not new with Wingun being what people would think of if CO2 revolvers were mentioned. That being said, in a world of semi and even fully-automatic airsoft sidearms, the revolver is not often a main sidearm for most airsofters, if anything it's more for completing a collection, a fidget toy at home and if ever seen on a field, it is often just a guy trying to challenge themselves for content or personal glory. This is because the airsoft revolver is not accurate due to most airsoft revolvers having either no Hop up or a fixed hop, causing rounds fired from an airsoft revolver to fly all over the place in a distance, and you probably only have 6 chances before needing to reload, which isn't ideal.

Ares decides to change that once and for all, by adding an adjustable hop-up unit to their entry, the ARES S&W 686 has a TDC style hop and can be adjusted with an Allen key, this greatly increases the hit probability, gone are the days of closing the distance on your airsoft foes (Unless you go for the snub nose, then you still probably have to). This advantage outshines most revolvers in the market, so if you join a revolver-only game with this, you know you have range and accuracy on your side! Other than having a proper Hop Up system, Ares kept what revolver enthusiasts like about airsoft revolvers, the removable shells, these shells are made with attention to detail, although the tip is made of rubber, to hold the seal to the BB, right under it is a copper tip and under that, an aluminum casing, the result is each shell looking like an actual hollow-point bullet, and to make reloading easier, a full moon clip is included with the shells allowing for easy and faster reloads. But the icing on the cake that comes with the ARES S&W 686 is that it comes with textured real wood grips, for this price point, real wood is almost unheard of, not to mention the texturing, this offers a grippy yet comfortable grip.

The action of the ARES S&W 686 CO2 airsoft revolver is very smooth, mimicking the real steel one quite nicely, the double action trigger just rolls when you apply pressure on the trigger with the single action being crisp. Finally, and we know, it isn't that important, but the sounds this airsoft revolver makes are very beautiful, this revolver is not made of steel, but the sounds it makes while spinning the wheel and just dry firing without CO2, it's just very ASMR worthy, which is incredible for a CO2 airsoft revolver, and when its gassed, it shoots with a really loud "BANG", which is definitely louder than most airsoft pistols and even most airsoft rifles.
