adadqgg Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 hmmm this PKM is too much fail get a deactivaed and build your own... Not as much fail because it is the first time airsoft manufacturer tried to make a PKM. Unlike M249 which was done by too many companies. Link to post Share on other sites
Tirpitz10 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 It looks promising. They seem to say its a prototype so the final version may be better (if true). If the gearbox is half decent and there isn't anything in the body that is made out of pot metal that is likely to break under normal use (carry handle/bipod mechanism springs to mind) I will get one.

ninja master of coffee Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 hmmm this PKM is too much fail get a deactivaed and build your own... Given that that is illeagal in numerous countries, not to mention pretty expensive even if it isn't actally banned that is kind of a limited option. Ok so it has a matt black finish... like most airsoft AKs and people generally are OK with that even if it isn't accurate and the polly furniture isn't that nice, well, replace the furniture and re-spray if you're really that bothered. I know that at least a couple of people have converted deact PKMs to airsoft but the fact that it is only a couple of people in countries where it is legal suggests it's not exactly an easy job. I'm personally looking forward to seeing these things around, bit more interesting than the slew of SAW based LMGs you see. Link to post Share on other sites
sharingan Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Hmm ok i didn't now the british law.....In Austria it's possible to have them. Well in my team/club we have 2 members with 2 deac. PKM. Well who is the manufacture of this PKM? Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 fluttershy Good to see more bronies coming out lately. Well who is the manufacture of this PKM? Rumor is it's A&K. Given their track record in making machine guns, it's likely to be true. SRP is under $600. Link to post Share on other sites
counterassasin Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Dear God of Airsoft, let this PKM use a standard A&K M249 gearbox! Then I'm forced to grab a Polarstar M249 gearbox to go with it... Link to post Share on other sites

Josiah Hull Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 This has the feelings of being an Evike attention ###### hoax, just like the MG42's and BAR's they have announced in the past. If it is in fact a real product then that is pretty cool, but it had better be made of some quality materials or this thing is going to either snap in half or have some sever barrel wobble issues. Cosmetically it is pretty ugly but that can be fixed with a few hours work and some paint. Add some nice wood on there and it will look much better. If this is a real product I wonder how many people will buy these and then realize they are incredibly unwieldy? That monster box mag makes carrying one of these things a bear.

ardrummer292 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Please please PLEASE be skirmishable... I don't know why they made a version with black poly furniture. Either make a Blackheart SOPMOD PKM or a straight oldschool wood and metal version, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteHawksan Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 that is so muh fail I almost pee'd a little. What you have effectively done, is put a rail system, bipod RIS adaptor, harris bipod and foregrip, on a 7.62mmBelt fed machine gun that already had a bipod. Still PKM = epic win!

ardrummer292 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would prefer the stock bipod as well, but the SOPMOD model makes up for that one flub with dramatically enhanced lowlight combat capabilities (PEQ15 anyone?). Then again, I'm talking about real-world applications here. The SOPMOD PKM will never be as classy or gorgeous as the wood furniture model. This is airsoft, after all. ... that said, if these are good enough to warrant owning two, one will be the SOPMOD variant. Link to post Share on other sites
adadqgg Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 You do not need rails for night time operations: The addition of rails is useless as the original PKM bipod can also serve as foregrip(and a more comfortable one; because box mag gets in the way with a vertical foregrip; but grabbing the bipod's legs has no problem). Unless.... Link to post Share on other sites

Tinkerton Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Has anyone got a contact an a & k that could confirm this? I desperately want one, and need to know if I should start saving up now or carry on making an m79... Link to post Share on other sites
ardrummer292 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Using a night vision scope is a FAR inferior choice to using NVGs and an IR laser for real world combat shooting. That said, I'm kinda derailing this into offtopic (realsteel) territory, so I'll leave it at that. If you'd like to continue discussing lowlight combat equipment via PM, I will happily oblige. Back on topic, I'm also interested in some official word from A&K. I hope this isn't another hoax. xP Link to post Share on other sites
