JG M4 Carabine

See, despite the fact that the mosfet may or may not be of suspect quality, this is starting to get cool.

 

The chinese are beginning to offer something that no one else offers. Hopefully this is only the beginning of the innovation that they will bring to the sport.

Didn't it basically take the high voltage stress from trigger to eliminate arcing... and provide active braking? IIRC, they were not that great because their components could not handle much power. Am I thinking of something else?

Pretty cool, it's a nice direction that JG is heading in. If only they'd get rid of those stupid trades, though. I think I'd much rather have a blank lower receiver than the generic "COMMANDO" stamp.

 

The texture on the stock looks really good to me, too. I've never used a JG M4 though, so is this something they've used before, or is that new too?

Pretty much just a common FET setup then, I guess.

 

cool! mosfets coming stock on aegs!

Who would have thought it would have been a Chinese company that started to do it? Although there was the Systema and (I think) Marui 550 and 551 before it...

The marui 550 and 551 had a burst unit. While this MAY have contained a mosfet (never had a poke at one), I'm pretty sure that the burst circuit just cut power after x ammount of shots.

 

Didn't act as a solid-state switch. Which is why you can get an old sig with a burnt out burst unit, and it'll still fire. Just not with burst.

Any one else notice the listing for "rifle twist" on the little spec tag thingy? I know nothing of JG, just wondering if they put it on there for "realism" or did they actually rifle the barrel?

 

quite a few boxes have the specs of the real gun on them too as a comparison, I know the JG mp5 I saw did!

 

also is that a car fuse in there?

I'll be honest, can anyone really stand to see yet another M4.....ok, the MOSFET is nice, but this could have been applied to any other platform that JG could have made......its just getting so #yawn# now.......people must be getting bored with the prosepct of adding yet another M4 to their collections of M4s

One of the chimans needs to put out some solid-carry handle AR's. The market is awash with decent removable-carry handle AR's, but pretty devoid of the fixed variety.

 

I'd really like to make a Miami-Vice-esque AR-shorty with a massive 1980's laser on it.

I concur full heartedly. I would love to see an older model fixed CH model. It was my first real steel gun. Be nice to have a clone to clonk about with.

 

The mosfet lacks braking though.... what a cop out.

 

True...ish. Still I think that JG's concern is the recent trend towards users plopping a LiPo in there and frying the trigger circuit. They aren't going for a performance upgrade so much as a functional one with this move, me thinks. It would be nice, but if all they want to do is stave off the hordes of newbs that are frying their trigger circuits because they don't know that a 9.6 battery or nastier will toast their trigger than this is a good move. If it is a performance e-penis they are trying for here...not so much. I bet my initial assertion holds true.
