This has piqued my interest... I shall patiently wait for what system it uses. Looks good though.

 

As for KelTec themselves the KSG, PMR-30 & RFB are in the only things realms of reality. The rest are just insane almost pointless designs, especially the entire SU series. Good on em for trying to be different but still.

On the contrary, it's their other products which are more widely used on a daily basis. The PF-9 and P-3AT remain popular EDC guns while the SUB-2000 and SU-16 are popular truck or pack guns due to their portability (and price). If anything, it's the KSG, RFB, and RDB which are relegated to being range toys as popular as they are.

I'm not big on shell ejection, madbull just happen to already make a shell ejection m107. And they already make co2 shotgun shells.. So it would make sense.

 

Personally I'd prefer gas powered non shell ejecting.

 

Hmm, but what's the benefit of gas over spring?

 

I had both the 870 and breacher from marui, mind you the breacher i enjoyed more then the full size (CQB) but i found it annoying i had to keep changing the gas tanks mid-game (breacher is very simple to change gas tank, but takes up 1 pistol mag slot).

 

Springer, you can go on forever.. I've had cqb games last 1.5 hours (milsim) and just ran strong with 14 shells! (Granted my right hand was tired from pumping (giggidy).

Multishot shotguns run from spring will be limited in FPS, the TM trishot is 3x 270fps and has pretty much the stiffest pump* of any airsoft gun, even more than 1x600fps rifles. TM are usually praised for their pixie dust built hop units, but their tri shots fixed hop leaves it as an exceptionally short range gun.

 

*Don't you start ¬.¬

 

Having gas means you can have three bbs at 350fps, or five bbs, or ten :D and still be able to run the action without the requirement of a table vice. 

 

Gas multishot that's good in woodland? It's not *fruitcage* hard, just nobodys bothered to build it yet. *'Yes they have' I hear cries from the shell ejecting gun users*

 

 

ALSO, gas means you can have semi auto.

My problem with springers is how hard it is to work the action. With the gas powered M870 I can empty all 10 shots in seconds. not so with any springer Ive ever tried.

How often do you really need to empty a shell of 10 shots in seconds? If I needed that kind of rof I'd just be using an AEG anyway.

 

The TM spring tri-shots do take a bit of effort to pump but when I borrowed one for a day I didn't find it at all difficult, my arms ached at the end of the day but I'd got more people with it than I would have at any other skirmish but with far less ammo and far more fun.

 

To me the only real advantage to gas is the potential for higher fps, but then you have to have gas and carry extra tanks (unless you run external HPA, which imo is no more or less practical, just a different option) which for me at least wipes out the big appeal of TM tri-shots which is being able to leave them in a kit bag between skirmishes without having to worry about gas, batteries or even BBs really since I'd get through so few with them.
