PolarStar JACK HPA Conversion Kit

Reliable HPA performance with simple tuning and proven durability. The PolarStar JACK is one of the most popular drop-in HPA conversion engines in airsoft, offering consistent shot performance, reduced mechanical wear, and straightforward tuning. Designed as a replacement for traditional gearbox internals, the JACK delivers fast trigger response and dependable operation for both casual players and experienced builders.

Open Bolt Single Solenoid Design

The JACK utilises a single-solenoid open bolt system, making it simple to configure while still providing excellent air efficiency and consistent FPS output. This streamlined design reduces complexity compared to dual-solenoid systems while maintaining strong performance.

Consistent Performance & Reliability

By eliminating gears, pistons, and springs, the JACK reduces mechanical stress inside the platform. This results in smoother cycling, improved reliability, and reduced maintenance requirements during extended gameplay.

Drop-In Conversion Platform

The JACK is engineered as a drop-in engine for compatible gearboxes, allowing players to convert AEG platforms to HPA with minimal modification (platform dependent).
