Wingmann Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 There's an error in my post and I can't edit anymore: The AAF system is not a split one, GLBS is.AAF system allows for the uppers to slide forward, like you would do in a G&P, King Arms and other M4s.

The Disavowed Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Oooooh, I like the look of that a lot. As always I have a difficult choice when it comes to what I want, model wise like many I have specific tastes, and my next rifle I plan to get a HK416. I so far think the only option I would be happy with is vfc gbb (probably until I try to use it), but this has a lot of the things that would make me happy provided I could get the external ascetics that I want. Price is a consideration of course, but so is usability and reliability. I can work with gbb, but I am not electronically minded, so if it is too complex then I can't deal with it myself, but gas has limitations with temperatures. As always though I am really happy to see some innovation in airsoft, it does seem to come rather slowly sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites
harborne blue Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Provided you entirely ignore a bunch of key/major features, the 2 are almost identical. I didn't- you decided to clip your quote. I'm talking about usability, playability and realism when firing, not underlying design. So actually apart from the moving bolt, there's little difference when you pull the trigger... it uses std mags, recoils, and BBs come out the end. Only the bolt moving differentiates it from a TM or KWA. Plus, I was posing a rhetorical question. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted November 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 To be fair I thought CK's sarcasm was kinda uncalled for, but your follow up response kinda justified it.. There's a day and night difference when you "pull the trigger"... mechanical trigger vs AEG contact trigger, if you think there's no difference between those two, and BBs come out when you shoot, then CK was right, there's no difference, if you ignore everything about it.

DarkLite Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Not to mention a working bolt stop with standard AEG magazines. I'd be very interested to see if this system can be transplanted into other AEG spec receivers. Link to post Share on other sites
sear Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Judging from the appearance of the gearbox, it looks like it could fit such receivers. I wonder if it uses AEG springs. Link to post Share on other sites
Hypnosis Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Haven't posted in these parts for a while.. Pulled the trigger on this system. Lets see what time brings.. Link to post Share on other sites

jal3 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I didn't- you decided to clip your quote. I'm talking about usability, playability and realism when firing, not underlying design. So actually apart from the moving bolt, there's little difference when you pull the trigger... it uses std mags, recoils, and BBs come out the end. Only the bolt moving differentiates it from a TM or KWA. Plus, I was posing a rhetorical question. The underlying design is important, because things get simplified. I could write 4 pages detailing why the ASG EVO is awesome, but simplified into features it would just be "parts compatability, neo motor, QD spring, ASCU". Same thing goes for why people want to spend £500 (+£500 in upgrades) on a TM recoil. Empty mag stop and recoil seems pretty thin right. But there are reasons as a whole why people like it. So we like the AAF thing because of some interesting design approaches that we like better. Not just "has button, push button for X". Link to post Share on other sites
Moofrikkintastic Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 I'm looking forward to that write-up! I'm really hoping this turns out reliable and decently accurate, could be a game changer imho. Also it apparently uses standard motors and gears, according to the creator of the video at the start of the thread(in YT comments). Edit: went to their facebook page, they said on the 17th october that they estimated to start shipping them out at the end of november. So hopefully that hasn't changed TOO much.

Hypnosis Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 It's the end of November now so I live in hope it won't be far off when they ship them. I guess it'll depend how many pre-orders they've taken. Hopefully I'll get my paws on it soon Link to post Share on other sites
Hypnosis Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Quick update. They should be shipping it in the next 2-3 weeks Link to post Share on other sites

dur Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 I'm really interested to see how this thing takes Marui mags while it still has what looks like a "no pipe" style hop similar to the recoil shock. I'm also hoping they have RS threads for that barrel nut/stock pipe! Link to post Share on other sites
Hypnosis Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 There's a delay on shipping so might not be until the end of the year/beginning of next that I get my paws on it Link to post Share on other sites
zdvil Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Let us know about the pistol grip. I'm interested in how we can change it out.... As others have mentioned. Not a fan of what they have. Link to post Share on other sites
