NightFury Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Dear Lord, it's finally coming. Hopefully Cyberscum doesn't pull a fast one on us. https://www.facebook.com/weairsoft The latest post shows their prototype. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 So you don't have to click through: I've got to give WE their due. I think a lot of what they sell they make poorly, of low-quality materials, and to a deeply indifferent standard. I think the intrigue surrounding their various corporate entities is unprofessional, and I think their entire Nuprol gas range is a gigantic scam. But they know how to get s*** done. Very few companies - perhaps no other companies - produce new models and variants with the kind of alacrity that WE can muster. We've been waiting on a GBB Thompson from King Arms for two years. We'd been waiting on a GBB Makarov from KWA for three years. WE just does, and even if I don't think I would buy literally anything they make, I have to respect that.

NightFury Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Can someone make a Pulse Rifle kit now? Modelworks did a superb job on their M40 stock for the VSRs. Maybe did make a drop in kit for this. Link to post Share on other sites
Wooly_Booly Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I've got to give WE their due.

We'd been waiting on a GBB Makarov from KWA for three years. WE just does, and even if I don't think I would buy literally anything they make, I have to respect that. Now, I wouldn't go as far to say that their products are poorly made and use low-quality materials. While the metal used for the internal mechanisms aren't exactly the strongest, their plastic is some of the best in the GBB industry. I do share your dislike for their corporate entities though. WETTI and WE Europe are always bickering and put the company in a very bad light. WE Europe especially is pretty bad, aiming their marketing at players who don't know right from wrong. One thing I would like to add to what you brought up regarding their alacrity. Their representatives, especially Luke Branch work harder than any other Airsoft related company I've ever seen trying to provide the best possible service and help to anyone who needs it. He's constantly taking any information regarding issues he can, helps users fix problems and even directs people to where they can get specialized replacement parts. Not many companies have service even relatively close to WE's. (Not including WETTI or WE Europe.) Can someone make a Pulse Rifle kit now? Modelworks did a superb job on their M40 stock for the VSRs. Maybe did make a drop in kit for this. If the dimensions are anything similar to the AEG models currently available it shouldn't be too hard. Link to post Share on other sites
aznriptide859 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 It can't be - AEG Thompson grips are so damn fat, they're barely comfortable enough to hold. The existing kits probably won't work in that regard. Link to post Share on other sites

bankz5152 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Awesome. Lets pray they do a drum mag! Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 +1 on that. I think I might wait for a M1928. Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Knowing WE likely hood is RS stuff will fit, finding would be the problem though... Thinking about a GIM drum mag could they not create a drum with multiple cylinders inside capable of withstanding Co2 pressure. Allowing people to fill it up with liquid Co2 from a bottle. Similar to GHK mag internals Should mean it would be cheaper for players to run, very low if any cool down, large gas capacity Link to post Share on other sites
harborne blue Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 (1) Be C02 and not Green. Or both - just make sure it will take 12g so we can use it all year; (2) Don't use a proprietary GBB system. Just copy the M4 so we can use a NPAS kit to get the FPS to below 'stupid'; (3) Release it this summer, keep the price of the gun and mags reasonable; (4) Markings would be nice.

NightFury Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 The bolt for the M1A1 should be about as large as their MP7. If I can do a consistent mag dump with 48 rounds coming from a tiny stick, I'm sure they can't screw up a 50 round drum all that bad. CO2 mags that can take 3 12g capsules would be great though. Provide the internals aren't made of cheese. By the way since ICS is doing a 70 year anniversary for WWII. Me thinks WE could be hitting the WWII line up this year pretty hard. Just speculation, but it doesn't seem unreasonable to suspect. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Dreams of GBB BAR. Link to post Share on other sites
NightFury Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Maybe if we keep bugging on WE it might come true. I'm more of a MP40 fan myself, but this Thompson that's coming out it definitely awesome. Hopefully the trigger mech last as long as their AR platforms. I've yet to ever break one.

Got Wood? Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 GBB Garand next? Link to post Share on other sites
DrAlexanderTobacco Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 GBB Garand next? Hell, I'd be happy with an updated M14, with CO2 mags! Link to post Share on other sites
NightFury Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Not sure how'd that work unless, the bandoleer, or is it a clip, only held bbs while the stock stores 12g capsules. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure how the CO2 would be routed from the stock to the nozzle but it TM can do it in a shotgun... well, you know. Link to post Share on other sites
Leshy Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hopefully this is followed with a Mp44! Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I think the blow back on this would shake the G&P M41A kit apart. Go on, WE, just make a damned M41A pulse rifle. With Alien 5 around the corner (it's a bloody big corner) it's bound to be in it. Link to post Share on other sites
wildething Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I have an hgc aluminium pulse rifle shroud that is going to be very happy this year Link to post Share on other sites

With Alien 5 around the corner (it's a bloody big corner) it's bound to be in it. Not to mention the G&P kit is rather pricey. We'd save money it WE just put on together for us. It'd probably be made through some unknown company like New Wave with the Small Rice. If anything maybe HK3P. Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Chances are there wont be a drum mag. I'd love to be shown wrong, but the M1 and M1a1 models don't have accommodations for the use of drums. The M1928a1 was the one that could take either. So in that case you'd probably be after the King Arms one. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Damn it, I thought this would have been about the M1A1 Carbine with it's funky paratrooper wire stock. Still nice to see more GBBR stuff for WW2 games. Now to await possible post-WW2 Fed / Gangster ideas as this comes out (unless it costs too much, which for a WE is above £1 ).

CatgutViolin Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 A WE Thompson, APS 870, and G&P M41A kit would violate my wallet so hard but dear lord it has to be done. Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Can't resist. But M1A1 GBB is also good. Maybe one day they will release PPSH-41 GBB. Link to post Share on other sites
