Jin15 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Just in at Airsoft News, it looks like the company KWC will be producing a CO2 powered non-blowback IMI Jericho pistol in the not too distant future. While this isn't the best news Jericho fans could have hoped for, there is little doubt that it will be superior to the fairly useless Hudson version of the IMI Jericho pistol. Unfortunately CO2 power means it's likely to not be skirmishable, but there's a good chance that the aftermarket KWC Green Gas Valve kits can be used to convert the pistol to something a bit safer to skirmish with. It's also quite unfortunate that it's a non-blowback, it would have been nicer to have a more reputable company produce a 134a or Green Gas powered GBB Jericho. But for any fan of this rarely replicated pistol even a CO2 powered non-blowback KWC version will certainly be something to look forward to. ...Now, about a Tokarev...

orca Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Was already "announced" here Apr 6th. http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/inde...&hl=jericho Sadly, on top of CO2 and NBB. seems to be a Cybergun deal... I will actually keep my crappy Hudson Jericho with all those strikes against it. Link to post Share on other sites
Jin15 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Eep! I had no idea there was another thread for this already, my bad! Feel free to delete this thread or move it to the duplicates section if you see fit Orca. Link to post Share on other sites
orca Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 No worries Jin. I don't see a prob with this thread staying and linking to the other since it was never posted in News. It should answer alot of Q's from peeps coming over from airsoft-new.eu on this particular subject. Link to post Share on other sites
snowman Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Can we stop the Cybergun-ya-boo ######? I can't be the only one bored with the constant bashing, can I? It's probably KWC, Cybergun just distribute it, so buy it from HK if you don't like Cybergun... Either way, nice to see someone make something different. They also make a CO2 S&W M&P which is quite interesting in the absence of a GBB one. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Yes it is KWC, i had/have the KWC Co2 NBB Sig SP2022 and thats around 300fps, there was also a version which was something silly like 400fps iirc, only real downside to these is the hopup is a bit lacking and so the range isn't great even for a pistol.

Armourpiercing Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have the NBB Taurus 24/7 & although it loks & feels great, the range is poor. Also they claim that it can fire over 250 shots with one CO2 capsule which is a complete lie as the most i have got is 93. AP. Link to post Share on other sites

Strange, my SP2022 was able to get a silly amount of shots out of one fill, maybe yours has a leaky mag or something? Link to post Share on other sites
Involved6 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I was really excited for a good Jericho. a non-revolver, NBB is a sin (I own a revolver and love it ), really - especially for such a nice lookin pistol. Oh well. The wait continues. At least theres 143511513 M9 variants out there. Link to post Share on other sites
Armourpiercing Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have two mags - hmm, you've got me worried now. Tool box here i come... AP. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Hyde Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 Oh man, I really want this. I love desert eagles, and this is like a little baby DE, it's so cute! When does it come out? I dont care if it is a NBB, granted I like GBB way more, but I really like the gun so........ Link to post Share on other sites
Spencedaddy Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 now how about a Springfield XD? i personally don't like the Jericho's all that much but the fact that its a very cute eagle makes it worthwhile to guy....how about we just make an airsoft version of everything that magnum research makes? BFR anyone Link to post Share on other sites
InexcelsisDeo Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 i prefer the hudson, just b/c it blows back and my guess is that the KWC Jericho uses a stick magazine instead of a full one. i could be wrong tho Link to post Share on other sites

They also make a CO2 S&W M&P which is quite interesting in the absence of a GBB one. Not to mention that they've also just released a SIGARMS GSR 1911. http://www.uncompany.com/pageproductdetails.asp?prodid=11596 This would be good for the MGS4 fanboys.

mrliu Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Agh...No blowback.... Got my hopes up. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 and my guess is that the KWC Jericho uses a stick magazine instead of a full one. i could be wrong tho I'd put money on it using full size mags, all their other ones do Link to post Share on other sites
Avatar Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 I can't wait for this! I posted about this on Airsoft Retreat a while back but no one is talking about it there..... I own a KWC mini uzi and the other day I had to order an obscure replacement part. I took care of it all from the website, the replacement was cheap, and their service was nothing short of excellent. I highly recommend them as a company. As for NBB, I used to be an all GBB guy, then I got a real pistol (Jericho 941 incidentally) and I really hate GBBs now. They felt cool before, but now it just feels too flimsy. IMO NBB is better for airsoft, you can make your pistol a lot quieter for example with NBB if you so chose to do. Does anyone have any information on a retailer for these with a website that isn't in one of those crazy far eastern moon-languages? Link to post Share on other sites
