L4byr1nth Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Anyone seen this yet? http://www.weairsoft.com/index.php Billed as the companion pistol to the KAC PDW due out anytime soon. Also, they have M92 C02 mags. Sorry if this is dupe news, but haven't seen it. Ben. Link to post Share on other sites

L4byr1nth Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Some of the text catches my eye. I'm thinking tightbore barrel as standard, it's got an anondised finish, and 'extensive CNC treatment', whatever that means... Ben. Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 "limited 100 pieces"_ I wonder if any of us will see these Link to post Share on other sites
L4byr1nth Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I think that was talking about the RS version... Ben. Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 (copy text posted in the WE Novak Next thread, paste) It's pretty silly though to have all these re-traded WEs calling themselves as Novak or Wilson Combat or Knighthawk(I think thats the next one). 1911 is a pretty basic gun, so many people make it, and all that really seperates from one to the other is the sight, the trades, the grips and the controls. If you can't bother to make those right before you call them by their specific type, why really bother to go out of your way and get it licensed..... Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 RM since you can copy and paste, SO CAN I!!!! LOL Because they can sell more (You know, make more money) , and some people are not over complicating gun nerds and just like to look at neat markings and have a cool case. Personally, I like the look and wouldn't mind paying for it. Link to post Share on other sites

DFM56 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 This would look tits with a nice set of wood grips Link to post Share on other sites

bruin757 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Score! Must have one. It'll complete the look when I get the KAC PDW Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I think that looks pretty sweet... I've never seen golf ball slide dimpling before. Holes look a bit too big for me though, i reckon it'd look better if they'd used smaller dents. Link to post Share on other sites

Dredd Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Looks good but if you ask me they need to stop dinking around with other projects and finish the PDW, I'm waiting. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 And here I thought fish scale slide serrations were hard to swallow. Though for what little licensing fee WE has been churning out, they're saving loads on the R&D (or copy pasta) by keeping to the simple 1911 which has an almost infinite number of iterations. While it may look dull and boring to some (like how some would complain "not another armalite") those who appreciate it will be delighted to have the correct trades of a very specific build they like. I don't particularly like this one, but if they stray towards making Bob Chow replicas, I'm definitely buying. Link to post Share on other sites
Magsz Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Anyone know when its coming? Pretty nice looking pistol although that photo is heavily shopped. Will be interesting to see what the quality is like in hand. Im excited that its supposed anodized which is a definite step up from the painted 1911's currently ruling the market.

hitmanNo2 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 Strategy seems to have worked for WA, wouldn't you say? But when WA release a 1911 variant, 99% of the time they accurately portray the model they claim it to be. Link to post Share on other sites

You didn't post it here, and it's news to me. Anyone else not really digging the trades? Love the serrations though. Ben. Link to post Share on other sites

Anachronism327 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 looks like a mix between a 1911 and a golfball It still looks oddly attractive Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 looks pretty accurate to me, thumb safety off maybe? My comment was aimed more towards the Novak Next model. The KnightHawk looks like a pretty close copy. Doing a quick comparison it seems the thumb safety, slide catch and the checkering on the front strap are wrong. Then theres minor stuff like, grip texture, extra marking on trigger guard, lanyard loop on mainspring housing and wrong colored barrel bushing and spring plug. Of course those last few things are pretty minor, so overall its pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites
