Looks like M134 fans will be happy (source Spartan Imports):
PIPERS PRECISION PRODUCTS ENTERS AGREEMENT WITH CLASSIC ARMY TO PRODUCE PIPER’S FAMED M134 BB MINIGUN
Wapak, Ohio, Sep. 29 – Piper’s Precision Products announced today that they have entered into an exclusive agreement with Classic Army to produce Piper’s innovative Airsoft M134 Minigun. Piper’s has granted Classic Army the exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute worldwide the Airsoft M134 Minigun using Piper’s design. The Piper’s Airsoft M134 Minigun will be offered in two complete packages, the backpack “Predator” version and the vehicle mounted “Blackhawk” version.
Piper’s Precision Products is the globally acknowledged innovator and leader in rotary, multi-barreled BB guns. Piper’s products are highly sought after by collectors, their functional reliability, and sheer enjoyment value. The Airsoft M134 Minigun is the culmination of years of research and is the finest BB minigun ever made. Using a combination of rechargeable battery power and bottled CO2, the Airsoft M134 Minigun is capable of rates of fire exceeding 70 rounds per second at velocities of up to 450 feet per second using 6 mm 0.2 gram plastic BBs. Almost every component of the Airsoft M134 Minigun is precision machined and designed to perform flawlessly under the toughest conditions.
Paul Piper, the owner of Piper’s Precision Products, owns the utility patent for any rotary, multi-barreled BB gun. Paul has designed and produced numerous types of multi-barreled BB guns, and acknowledges that the Airsoft M134 Minigun is his finest work to date. Piper’s is also the designer and manufacturer of the Strafer Mk IV, a law enforcement non-lethal application BB gun.
Classic Army is global brand leader in premium Airsoft guns. Paul Piper selected Classic Army to produce his minigun design due to Classic Army’s acknowledged reputation as a quality manufacturer and global distributor of high end Airsoft products.
As Paul stated, “Between my tested Minigun design and specifications, and Classic Army’s manufacturing and distribution capabilities, I feel we can offer the discriminating Airsoft hobbyist and collector the finest Minigun replica ever made at a very attractive price.”
The first production Airsoft M134 Miniguns are expected to be released in the first half of 2009.
Spartan Imports will be the exclusive distributor of the Piper’s Airsoft M134 Minigun in the United States.

WGC sent in a slightly different email from usual which regards possible competitors claiming to be authorised distributors for specific manufacturers when they might not be.
Established dealers such as WGC obviously feel strongly about this issue, but I want to post things carefully so this doesn’t snowball.
In this case the claims relate to a dealer being an accredited VFC/G&G dealer, however G&G for example keep a list on their site that’s updated regularly that can be checked to verify this.
Retailers and competitors will be frustrated when others claim to carry the same status that they may well have fought and bargained hard for. Yet from an end user point of view the possible potential downfalls would likely be support related and falling foul of grey/parallel import issues.
As ever best advice is to always make an informed decision in whatever purchase that you make and be sure to check up on claims and promises made to see that they hold water before laying down hard cash.
Please be aware that it is merely a quoted submission. The link and the name of the specific retailer that they mention has been removed:
Dealer Right and Copyright Violation
Recently we have noticed that there is an airsoft company named [URL snipped] claims itself as an authorized distributor of VFC and G&G without actual authority. We believe that these violations are serious since this is a sort of swindle. We have contacted this company for the removal of all unapproved declarations and images that may mislead customers. However, no reply is received until now. Being a wise customer, please be aware of this matter. Thank you for your kind attention.
