FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 http://www.tokyo-marui.co.jp/event/hobbyshow/201210/ Yep, well what have we got here then? Looks like a MP5 (possibly a HC, or perhaps, *gasp*, a GBB SMG). Possibly a 416 or 417. A Chrome / Stainless Series 70 (#fap#). A possible Elite P226 or even a X-5, depending on the rest of it. Well I must say I am happy about the Series 70 and the P226 with nice bits. The MP5, not sure as if it is a HC (but they already make a HC) then meh, if it is a GBB or EBB oh hell to the *fruitcage*-ing yes. Finally the 416/417, meh many of them about, but if it is a recoil model it will be cool. All I know is that Series 70 Stainless will be mine, but one question TM, were is my MP7 GBB?

blingblip Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Recoil shock 416 seems an obvious choice as it would be easy for them to make. Fingers crossed for it being recoil shock mp5- or maybe a g3 or something too- i think there's already a high cycle one? First pistol as said is a 1911 no idea on the last one, probably a sig as said Link to post Share on other sites
starburst Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 So I take it the series 70 is now on your shopping list? If the P226 looks good that may be on mine, looks like it may have a silver slide though and Ive never been impressed with their stainless/chrome pistols (the line "nickel plated sissy pistol" springs to mind). Its definitely a Sig from the design of the slide and placement of the de-cocker. The 416, I guess to some another option is welcome, especially if it offers something the others can't. With the MP5 Im betting its a recoil, could be gas. If it is gas (or even an AEG) I would rather they used a little imagination and made a 9mm UMP. Link to post Share on other sites

The P226 would be good to see though, depends how they go about it as you can get a few match style P226 models. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Atsalakotos Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Loving the idea on the Elite P226... Maybe that MP5 along with the HK416 (Its not an HK417) will be recoil shock versions? I really don't see them being GBB... But most importantly.... Where is my M&P??? Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Good god let that Mp5 be a GBB. I'd also put money on the 416 being a Recoil Shock model; I just really hope the Mp5 is a GBB. Doubt it, but hopefully. Strikes me that it'd be tricky to fit a decent AEG recoil mech in an Mp5... Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Well an EBB MP5 is possible. But all I know is that Series 70 with some A1 grips will be mine The P226, will wait and see what it looks like. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Ooooh, HK146, means possible 417 in the future? ^^ That'd be perfect! And MP5 GBB... I'm dreaming ^^ Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of us didn't expect the MP7 to be a GBB either but it turned out to be one, so there is some hope, if it does turn out to be a GBB I suspect my monies will be belonging to TM, the externals won't be as nice as the VFC but it'll thrash it in terms of performance and reliability I'm sure.

FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 True, but never know could see a G3 back again, seeing as all Marui have at the moment is the SG-1 (the PSG-1 isn't really your basic G3 is it). But still if it is a GBB MP5 then win, I wont bother with the MP7, just get this instead. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
mimesis Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 New model in the inexpensive NBB line. They're also announcing the Centimeter Master as if it were new. But surely it's not. http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/pistols-gbb-smgs/tokyo-marui/gas-pistol/tokyo-marui-centimeter-master-fixed-slide-gas-pistol.html Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Both of those have been around since at least the 2001 catalogue I have somewhere. They just improve the finish and re-release the gun again. It is the new stuff that interests us 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

They just improve the finish and re-release the gun again. Far from accurate and not true Those NBBs were around in 1991 (they're shown in the classic Marui Man video), they're being released as new because they now actually have hopup. I have the old 1991 spec AMT Hardballer NBB and it's actually very good for a £45 NBB, even without hopup it is very accurate on the TM .25s and the range is pretty decent too, good enough to skirmish with and get some hits Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 I bought one for a tenner in 2000, and fuelled it with Lynx deodarant, because I couldn't afford gas and didn't really know anything about anything. Surprisingly effective. Link to post Share on other sites
Megalomaniac Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Maybe that new HK teased is an HK33... Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 To be honest that MP5 might as well be GBB considering the MP7 announcement, wouldn't suprise me Go MARUI ! Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Oh please let the MP5 be a GBB!!! This will be the longest 12 days ever!! You see a GBB MP5 from TM would work and be awesome unlike the damn VFC MP5! Link to post Share on other sites

Surprisingly effective. But wouldnt that attract women to all you hit? You see a GBB MP5 from TM would work and be awesome unlike the damn VFC MP5! Indeed it will, although I wonder what the lead times on these will be seeming we are still waiting on the last models they teased! Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Far from accurate and not true They had hop-up ages ago, now they get a glossy new look (so better paint?). Still for what they are, would rather save for a proper TM GBB pistol. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 They had hop-up ages ago, now they get a glossy new look (so better paint?). No they didn't, it's only very recently they've started adding hopup, if you bought one a couple of years ago it'd have been non-hop still Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Odd, got one to shoot back in 2006 and swear it had a hop up system, it was useless but it appeared to have one, fixed mind you Still why they bother I am not sure, can't be great sellers? Then again I have heard the PPK Gindan gun sold well so maybe they have a younger market to hint at? 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

The fact they've been on sale and in production since 1991 would indicate they do sell well enough and it probably wasn't a huge job for them to retrofit a simple hopup system into them.

mimesis Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 OK, so these don't seem to be getting much love, whereas the Mk23 is highly thought of. I assume the Mk23 has adjustable hop. How much difference in fps is there, using the same gas? Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 TM, were is my MP7 GBB? It's on their front page. I'm guessing they'll be released on the day of the hobby show as if you click details on it it just leads to the hobby show page. Link to post Share on other sites
