renegadecow Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Ignoring how every revolver enthusiast complained about the unrealistic Win Gun "Dan Wesson", Elite Force is making an even more unreal quasi revolver. Unreal because it uses clips like those air pistols from the 90s where most of the cylinder is only cosmetic and doesn't rotate. Eight shots per clip, CO2 in the grip, 320 fps in mind and targeted at $65 srp. https://www.facebook.com/EliteForceAirsoft/videos/1176873329044111/ Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Wasn't that already and existing 4.5mm BB gun? I could swear I've seen those on like, Wal-mart's website or something like that. Looks like it's just a conversion of that to 6mm. And the clip isn't *completely* unrealistic, I think. Aside from the length, there's lots of revolvers that take full moon clips. Woo, I'm not crazy! It's called the Umarex Brodax. I knew I'd seen it before. http://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Umarex_Brodax_BB_Revolver/3948 Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted July 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Sure, if the full moon clip at least moves with the rest of the cylinder. This one's just static being molded in so only the rear clip part rotates reminiscent of old Crosman revolvers that had the clip up front. It's not like they couldn't make it more realistic for the price point as even Umarex has a fairly decent M&P R8 (although in 4.5mm caliber) which is even cheaper. Edit: Took a screenshot as they don't have stills for it. Not sure if it's already pre existing but they said they were tooling for it (despite not having a name for it yet) which implies it's new.

Brigg Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Cylinder doesn't even move? Ugh. That's a deal breaker for me. shame too, it kinda looks nice. Almost reminds me of something from Deus Ex Human Revolution. Ah well. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted July 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Actually, I'm not 100% sure. Just basing it off the video from when he cocked it and the front part did not move. It's possible that the production model will a working cylinder and the one he has is merely a sample as he said the clip will be made of metal. Edit: Wow! $39.99 and these *fruitcage*ers want $65!

mimesis Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 From Brodax description: Loading this gun is easy with the circular clip that slides out from behind the stationary cylinder. The clip holds 10 steel BBs. Perhaps the airsoft version will move, for $25 extra. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Looks pretty bad *albatross*. Too bad about the lack of details/operation. Link to post Share on other sites
Guges Mk3 Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Things like this that get created and sold is due to the brains behind the project being "profit" oriented versus detail oriented. Link to post Share on other sites
ED-SKaR Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Those screw holes.... they make me sad. This is certainly not a 'proper' airsoft gun, it's a 6mm air pistol. Remove the air system and it'd make a nice cosplay piece. Link to post Share on other sites
Katotaka Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 That looks tacticool, in a nice way, kinda want. Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Have to say this does look (aesthetic point of view) good. Do love futurist looking revolvers, still waiting on a rif of the revolver from Alien Isolation. Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 If it does reliably shoot under 350 I'll pick one up. Add a hop and call it a day. Always wanted a simple, scifi revolver looking thing. Similar to the m4 revolver from killzone. Link to post Share on other sites
swatti Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 I was thinking of making a revolver using APS apm50 shells... Anyone got those laying around? Snap me measurements and I'l make the gun happen. Link to post Share on other sites
paranoiddroid Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Why waste the money on *suitcase* conversions from air pistols... Oh yeah backyard sifters will buy it coz its cheap and then get it confiscated at school/by the cops for running round like fools. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Eh, since when are people used to quality, right? That's a '40's idea right there... I want back... Mmmm, over engineering.. Link to post Share on other sites
