masakarijoe Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 YES! awesome. i will buy one eventually. but this is NOT an M16A3, it is an M16A4. ONLY THE M16A4 HAS A REMOVEABLE CARRY HANDLE! the A3 carry handle is fixed. -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan452 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 400 bucks not including shipping, might as well get a G&P from ehobbyasia for that price... Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 i do agree, but the KWA aegs are inpressively built, and can handle a lipo... plus they are seemingly as reliable as a TM but i do hope the price is lowered, maybe around $325 -Joe Link to post Share on other sites

Abelius Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Like the Marui/G&P/CA/*insert manufacturer name* M16A2? These KWA's are really starting to get my interest. If they land in Finland too, I might actually consider buying one just out of curiosity. Link to post Share on other sites

Karnage Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Marui man showed the power of electric hidden battery M16 with chicken wing for great justice in 1991, this be greatest news Link to post Share on other sites
Utty Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hahah, you guys are punks. This is AWESOME...I have one apart on my bench with a shreaded piston due to a follower that came unscrewed...minor issue...but you have to see the mechbox on these from the inside to believe how good they are. This is the first mechbox I've seen that came without shims...ANY shims...and it doesn't need them, the fit is so good! Gotta add this to the GOTTA HAVE list! Thumpy...OVER Do you mean this particular model, or does that count for previous KWA models too? Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 KWA Can't call it a M16A4.... it doesn't have three round burst. neither do the airsoft M16A2s... thats a minor issue, allizard but yes, the KWA AR line is fantactic. perfect, in my opinion... all they need are trademarks, and perfection would result. anyone know if KWAs M16A4 will have a milspec type barrel, and will fit an M5 RAS and/or M203 with no issue? -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
SnakeHT Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Funny as hell. Just once i want to sneak up on someone and give them a 'thumbs down' kill Link to post Share on other sites
scooberoo Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Did you notice Marui Man magically changed his green bdu to desert during his 2nd kill with that awesome AEG ? Then he switched to geen again. Wow! Link to post Share on other sites
chaoswithinthed Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 The trades ruin it. Nice lookin gun besides that. DP Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 hopefully they will make the version they made for their M4s, with the USMC Eagle, Globe and Anchor... not real, but damned cool. and i already have a G&P with FN trades, so id like one of those -Joe Link to post Share on other sites

In asia version they have marine trade. In europe version they have armalite trade. for the people who whine about $400 too much. One, airsoft used to cost that much just a few years ago. Two, price is MSRP. When is the last time you paid MSRP?!! Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 cool! armalite trades? like classic army style? never seen that... -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
