The old ARES HONEY BADGER is a bit of a perennial favourite still with certain members of the AA Crew, and it’s looks, performance, and functionality in-game have made it a first choice for many an airsofter!
We all know though that to get it 100% right the old Badger really needed a bit of love and fettling, but once you’d done that it was a bit of a dominator… but what if you didn’t need to worry about the upgrades and work? What if you could have that ass-kickin’ little carbine 100% good to go from the box?
Well, if you’re an HPA fan, then now you can as our mates at iWholesales have been on to let us know that they have a whole bunch of the most popular ARES styles (including the Badger!) ready to roll with the ARES HPA ENGINE built right in! They say;
“We now have the Ares x Amoeba Series M4 models equipped with an HPA engine as the standard, and powered by an 11.1v battery with an XT30 connector to get you started right away.

Whilst many of the old and bold at AA are very much still traditional AEG and GBB users it’s without doubt that HPA is with us to stay, and gaining more and more traction in our player community… and with classic platforms like the dear old HONEY BADGER making the most of new technology we can kind of understand why!
