The long-awaited Russian service pistol finally arrives from VFC.
The VFC MP443 Grach GBB Airsoft Pistol, released under VFC's Stark Arms line, recreates one of the most recognizable modern Russian military sidearms in a full gas blowback platform.
Designed around the distinctive profile and controls of the MP443 Grach, VFC combines a substantial 910g overall weight, realistic-style markings, ambidextrous safety controls and its patented GuideHOP quick-adjust HOP-UP system into a modern GBB pistol aimed at collectors, Russian loadout enthusiasts and skirmish players alike.

A Modern Russian Sidearm in GBB Form
The MP443 Grach has a very different visual identity compared with common Western service pistols such as the Glock, SIG P320 or HK USP.
Its broad slide, rounded frame profile and distinctive control layout make it immediately recognizable, particularly for players building modern Russian military, Eastern European or fictional post-Soviet loadouts.
VFC's version retains the characteristic silhouette of the Grach while turning it into a practical Green Gas-powered GBB pistol with functional blowback and adjustable HOP-UP.
For collectors who already own numerous Glock, 1911 or SIG-pattern pistols, the MP443 offers something considerably less common.
-
Realistic Weight and Handling
One of the most noticeable characteristics of the VFC MP443 is its weight.
At approximately 910 grams with an empty magazine, it feels considerably more substantial than many lightweight airsoft pistols.
The overall length measures approximately 195mm, giving the pistol a full-sized service handgun profile while remaining compact enough for normal holster and secondary-weapon use.
Its balance and blowback action make the MP443 particularly suitable for users who value the mechanical experience of operating a GBB pistol rather than simply looking for the lightest possible sidearm.
-
Ambidextrous Manual Safety
The VFC MP443 features an ambidextrous manual safety lever, allowing the controls to be accessed from either side of the pistol.
This reflects one of the distinctive characteristics of the original MP443-style control layout and makes the airsoft replica practical for both right- and left-handed users.
-
Partially Concealed Hammer Design
VFC reproduces the MP443's characteristic partially shrouded hammer arrangement.
The sides of the hammer are partially enclosed by the rear portion of the slide, reducing the chance of the hammer catching on clothing or equipment while maintaining its external-hammer appearance.
It is a small detail, but one that gives the Grach a noticeably different rear profile compared with conventional hammer-fired pistols.
-
VFC Patented GuideHOP System
A major practical feature of the VFC MP443 is its patented concealed GuideHOP quick-adjust HOP-UP system.
Rather than requiring extensive disassembly every time the trajectory needs adjustment, the system is designed around easier HOP tuning while maintaining the pistol's realistic external appearance.
Combined with its 100mm inner barrel, the adjustable HOP system provides a useful foundation for normal field and CQB performance.
-
22-Round Gas Magazine
The standard VFC MP443 magazine holds approximately 22 rounds of 6mm airsoft BBs and operates using Green Gas / Airsoft Gas.
VFC also offers dedicated replacement and extended magazines for the platform.
-
Available Magazine Options
- 22-round capacity
- Green Gas
- Standard MP443 profile
- 26-round capacity
- Extended MP443 profile
Both magazine types are designed specifically for the VFC MP443 platform.

Performance
Factory muzzle velocity is approximately:
100 m/s / 330 FPS with 0.20g BB
Actual velocity may vary depending on:
- Ambient temperature
- Gas pressure
- BB weight
- Magazine temperature
- Production batch
- Destination-country configuration
The pistol uses an adjustable HOP-UP system and a 100mm inner barrel.
For general use, high-quality 0.25g to 0.28g BBs should provide a practical starting point, with heavier ammunition potentially usable after proper HOP adjustment.
