News from Peter at KWA.
Rosemead, CA ? November 1, 2007 ? KWA USA today announced the introduction of a new AEG, the KWA KM4 CQB Carbine. The new AEG was designed and engineered specifically for close quarters battle scenarios where low velocity and high rate of fire is required.
After the successful introduction of the KM4A1 LiPo-ready AEG, KWA was overwhelmed with requests from around the world for an airsoft CQB weapon suitable for indoor facilities imposing a 350 feet per second limit. This was not an easy task because reducing velocity yet retaining high rate of fire is not as simple as replacing the recoil springs alone. All internal components must work in concert to achieve KWA?s high performance and durability standards.
The KM4 CQB is “LiPo-Ready” and share all the advance features found on the KM4A1 plus several new enhancements like the new heat sink motor plate to dissipate heat buildup generated by the high speed performance motor. All of the internal components have been re-worked and re-calibrated to provide maximum rate of fire but maintaining velocity below the 350 FPS limit. Straight out of the box, the KM4 CQB shoots consistently at 340 FPS and fires 20+ rounds per second using .20 gram BB. The KWA KM4 CQB is a state of the art airsoft weapon and is built to last.
The KWA KM4 CQB will be released in the US on December 01, 2007 and will only be available through KWA USA Authorized Resellers. Suggested retail price for the KWA KM4 CQB will be $315.95.

A press release from Peter at KWA.
Rosemead, CA - August 20, 2007 - KWA USA today announced it is in the final stages of releasing it?s first Lithium Polymer (LiPo) ready AEG, the KWA KM4A1 Carbine. The new AEG was engineered specifically to take full advantage of today?s advanced battery technology and provide airsoft enthusiasts with the experience of absolute performance.
Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries provide higher capacity and superior performance surpassing the more commonly available Nickel Cadium (NiCd) and Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMh) batteries. However, using the LiPo power source requires the highest quality of internal components. To handle the extra power of LiPo batteries, the KM4A1 is equipped with a reinforced metal gearbox utilizing KWA?s exclusive 8 and 9 mm ball bearing bushing combination and case hardened, precision metal gear sets. Heavy duty springs and high-torque motors are matched for optimum results. High-grade metal alloy are used for the production of the upper and lower receivers. The KWA KM4A1 is capable of firing more than 20 rounds per second and well over 400 feet per second when powered by an 11.1v Lithium Polymer battery.
The decision to develop LiPo-Ready products came after the successful introduction of KWA?s high performance AEG, the KG36C. Positive feedbacks and overwhelming demands from the industry accelerated the engineering of an AEG capable of utilizing the LiPo power source. The KWA KM4A1 will be released in the US in mid September 2007 and will only be available through KWA USA Authorized Resellers. Suggested retail price for the KWA KM4A1 Carbine will be $359.95.

An Arnie’s exclusive.
With all the great SCAR-L news recently… Here’s some CA SCAR-H pics!
More pics in forum here.
Trigger Happy - M240 GPMG Conversion Kit, Final Test Sample as posted by our user Recondo, http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=117924. Pictures are worth a thousand words.
Tactical Quartermaster is a new online shop based in the south-east of England. We mainly sell our own line of tactical/combat clothing but we are also an official dealer for CombatKit. Although currently we only have a limited range of stock we aim to get new products in every month.
At the moment we are aiming at mostly ACU and Multicam patterns but also have some black, tan and DPM in stock too. Quality of our own line of clothing is to a high standard and although the material is not official Crye Precision it looks identical and you would be hard pushed to tell the difference.
More information can be found on our website www.tacticalquartermaster.co.uk which is being updated day to day with more photos and new information. If you can?t find the answer on the website feel free to contact us and we will aim to answer any question you may have.

Spartan Imports just sent posters of 2 new releases from Classic Army fresh off the CA “Press”. These have been posted from earlier show sightings, but good to see CA keeping committed to their new model releases. No firm release dates yet.
Coming Soon! From the company that brought us the G36 Magwell Adapter, Private Parts Airsoft, announces 2 new products.
PPA - GLOCK LANYARD GRIP PLUG
Made from a high strength resin polymer, it can withstand the high impact abuse of any combat situation.
Its features and design allows it perform multiple functions:
As a grip plug to prevent dirt, dust, or any foreign matter from entering the grip and building up in the operating mechanism of the gun where they might interfere with the proper function of the pistol. The lanyard loop allows you to conveniently attach a pistol lanyard to help secure and prevent the loss of your sidearm. In addition to the weapon retention function, it is also designed to break away in the unlikely event that the pistol snags on something and inhibits operator movement or extraction from dynamic dangerous situations. The low profile and streamlined design of the grip plug itself does not snag against equipment and gear and can make the pistol appear more attractive.Currently, we have produced 3 models of the PPA Glock Lanyard Grip Plug.
- PPA003-T for Tokyo Marui/KSC Glock airsoft pistols
- PPA003-K for KWA Glock airsoft pistols
- PPA003-R for real Glock pistols
PPA - Advanced Armament Corp SCAR-SD Fast Attach Silencer and Flash Suppressor
OFFICIALLY LICENSED airsoft version of the Advanced Armament Corp SCAR-SD fast attach silencer and flash suppressor.
The SCAR-SD silencer was developed specifically for the FN SCAR-L for extended use in the most extreme combat conditions that a SOCOM operator might encounter while maintaining superior precision accuracy and minimal zero-shift. The fast attach ratchet system allows the suppressor to be attached or removed within seconds using only gross motor skills. The ultra-compact size (approximately 6 inches) of the silencer makes it very portable and, when attached to a combat assault rifle, only increases the overall weapon length by slightly over 3 inches. Combining the compact size with its light weight, this suppressor is perfect for dynamic CQC (close quarter combat) applications where speed, maneuverability, weapon compactness and pointability are crucial to efficiently securing a target location and neutralizing the enemy.
The PPA officially licensed airsoft SCAR-SD silencer and flash suppressor are machined from high grade aluminum and faithfully replicates the dimensions and external appearance of their actual counterparts. It is the perfect complement for your airsoft SCAR or any other airsoft assault rifle.
AAC, Advanced Armament Corp, SCAR-SD, the appearance and fast attachment system of the SCAR-SD silencer and flash suppressor are reproduced under official worldwide license from Advanced Armament Corp. Unauthorized replication of the products or usage of the AAC nomenclature is prohibited.
