  1. fyi...the Marushin FN FiveseveN in 8mm has a more drastic hump in the inner barrel

     

    The Mateba is pretty interesting looking gun...if you just flip the grip/gas reservoir to the top..the you basically have a std revolver (cylinder opening downward and barrel on top)..it must be what the creators (of the gun) did. Nice review and follow up.

  2. No one?

     

    Seems like the KA is the best but comes with its set of problems.

     

    Does anyone know a cheap place to get one in the US since I don't want it to get caught in customs?

     

    I just picked up a King Arms L1A1 at Evike..I think it was their one and only one in stock. ..got it for a steal too.

     

    There are no FN Herstal trademarks on it..at least mine did not... (my Star FN FNC has beautiful trademarks)

     

    unlicensed trademarks and no orange barrel is the only reason Customs would be holding your airsoft so I would order away from whoever has it in stock.

     

    shop.ehobbyasia.com has the King Arms version for $395 while the Star version is on sale for $299

     

    (Star FNC is on sale for $199)

    (King Arms FAL $242

     

     

  3. Beautiful gun, Id kill for it if it had an SVI trademarked frame. Looks great anyway though.

     

    ditto. . show me a full metal SVI IED and you got the "Holy Grail" of FM 1911s.

     

    another impressive piece would be a FM Compact Wilson..(ie. Wilson trademarked frame)

     

  4. G&P metal AK kits are the most common nowadays and are a great buy. . but I've owned the ZEKE, Prime, Guarder, VFC and DTP ones and those are great. . avoid the G&G and CA one. ..unless you can get the Steel stamped CA one. .

     

    I've owned the Guarder wood kits and I've never had a complaint. . .don't know about King Arms or anyone else's wood kits. .

     

    If you contact my buddy Matt Shuster of Ironwood Designs (in San Jose, CA)

     

    http://www.ironwooddesigns.com/

     

    he's one of the few that supplies one of the best quality of wood furniture of real steel AKs/FN FAL in the US. AWESOME quality!!!! He supposively teamed up with Airsoft Extreme to manufacture AK wood kits for Marui/clones AEGs. . no idea what happened to that. . I saw the prototype wood kit and it was awesome!!!

     

    Matt also does Ruger 10/22 conversion kits that resemble the Walther WA2000 sniper rifle, AUG and P90. .. he's been in pretty much all the gun magazines like Guns and Ammo, Shotgun News, etc.

  5. WA SCW Bulldogs (WA-CWP) - custom, metal!

     

     

    Do not confuse these Bulldogs with the smaller Infinity Tactical Carry's with 3.9" slide and Compact grip that were released later.

    Here's a comparison shot:

    Matt,

     

    I know for sure the Tactical Carry Bulldog (3.9) was released in 2002 also.. have any idea approx how far apart the release was. Truthfully, I never remember a 4.3 Bulldog , so that's awesome.

     

     

     

     

  6. here are my AKs:

     

    Guarder AKS74U w/ VFC PBS-4

     

    VFC AKS74 w/ VFC tactical handguard, Element PBS-1 steel

     

    waiting for my GWS Bizon to come in. . yeeee har

  7. First off, Springfield Operator, get it right....

     

    And two, yeah didn't notice that. Idiot comp looks even worse now that you mention it. I have never seen one with a bushing outside of airsoft....

     

    doh. . corrected on the Springfield. . .

     

    and her finger is not on the trigger properly. .should be on her first digit of the finger, not the second...compliments of Rob Leatham

     

  8. hurray!. .HKS wants to donate his Springfield Operator for the Angelina Jolie special. . .please ship it to me at . . .

     

    btw. .pertaining to the Angelina's gun. . I find it weird it has that comp and still the barrel bushing intact. . is that common? I've usually seen comps that attach using the barrel bushing slots on the slide. . but not together.

  9. not many single stack metal kits with square trigger guards. . Caspian & Wilson ..very limited. .Sheriff made some. . but for Magnas. .

     

    I don't know if anyone would want that foo-foo-ish artsy fartsy designs on a 1911. . maybe a girl or a Angelina stalker. .

  10. Thanks for the comments guys; there's no one around here who really appreciates my work! :P

     

    eh, ..it's an OK job Dingo ;)

     

    j/k. .I like the fade. .is the black line-work just black paint over the white?

     

     

  11. I got bashed for putting this in the AK variant thread. . .

     

    Knight's Armament SR-47

     

    I mean really. . it's not just a modified AR. . it's design from scratch. .you can't modify an AR to be able to house AK mags. . .impossible. ..there just isn't enough material on the lower receiver.

     

    Anyhow. .still a work in progress. . gonna try to stuff my Sun Project XM177 guts into the SR-47.

    SR472.jpg

     

    (note: sorry for displaying the cheap-a$$ red dot on an SR-47. . .my Aimpoint was on my LR300 at the time.

     

    and sorry about the AK74 mag. . my AK47 bakelites were in storage

     

    I'll probably cut the RAS length down to 10.5" It's just too long. .I've kept the SR25 gas block intact so I can utilize the SR25 silencer if needed. . I also may go with a fixed Clubfoot modstock)

  14. the cleaner, I don't suppose you could take a pic of the Tommy Franks slide on a silver V10 frame could you?

     

    yesiree...

     

    my Prime V10 kit hasn't been assembled yet. .. . but I can put the TF slide onto my Wilson SDS (which has a V10 frame on it too)

     

    later this evening for the pics. . at work now.
