Moar pics (yes, I'm lazy and I take my time with these):

The Sopmod/new ver.2 already has all internal parts available as reinforced versions, from laylax/prometheus ... not sure about the tappet plate but the rest are out. The only missing parts are mostly externals, no bodies (other than marui), no Of-the-shelf custom stocks (Magpul UBR, fullsize M16) and and not many barrel length options. And no Pmags yet. Slowly we're getting there.

I'd buy 1 to 3 of those

One more question / suggestion regarding the mags. Would it be possible to have separate access to BBs feed channel, without having to open the gas reservoir? Preferably, both ends of the channel, as this would be useful for scrubbing/cleaning the channel. Note I've never used a real or airsoft Pmag, so I'm not sure how it would work - but I know they have removable bottoms. I just know I hate my pistol GBB magazines as they require me to disassemble the whole magazine in order to clean the bbs channel.

Great! What's the latest ETA? I need to plan my budget for buying one of these rifles + your pmags

T_hum, do you think you'll be able to ship your pmags GBB mags outside the US? That is, without breaking ITAR...

The Army ships with Hicap magazine.

Go for the Socom, saves you some headaches.

Lots of parts on echigoya: http://echigoya-guns.com/guns/index.php?route=product/category&path=61&page=1 Including some stuff I haven't seen available before: http://echigoya-guns.com/guns/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_id=318 - hard cut off lever http://echigoya-guns.com/guns/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_id=301 - split barrel base http://echigoya-guns.com/guns/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_id=300 - torque up gears http://echigoya-guns.com/guns/index.php?route=product/product&path=61&product_i

I think I can send 2 bar codes (a socom and a sopmod) maybe more if i convience my friends When do you need them?

photo or the actual bar code, taken of the box?

16", no step barrel. Nice!

Did anyone find a way to fit Magpul Ranger or L plates to the mags? Considering the magazine internals are held in place by a screw going through the magazine floorplate, it seems to me we have a no-go or a big adaptation work... right?

If its just the upper receiver, its more expensive than the freakin' RS upper !?

Did anyone try the Firefly accuracy nozzle? http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/firefly-accuracy-cutting-type-nozzle-for-sopmod-m4-ebb-aeg.html

They are single stacked... why use highcaps when you buy a "realism oriented replica" ?!?

Well its not the 10$ wrench that's gonna kill it, but the 150$ free float rail http://www.sculesiechipamente.ro/Chei-truse-chei/Chei-gheara-140.html - this is a family of wrenches of the same type, probably available in hardware stores. For example here in Romania I wouldn't find either of the airsoft tools in stores, so it was easier to buy a generic wrench like these. In English I believe its called a "fixed hook wrench" but I don't have the size (diameter of opening) at hand since I'm at work...

What are you saying? I'm using a 300mm inner barrel in mine, didn't notice any problems ?!

The Sopmod does... mine did.

On a 2nd thought, the old preview mentioned the long barrel as 16" so I could be wrong, sorry about that, I was just guesstimating

Considering its got a removable outer barrel section (10.5 -> 14.5) I'd say its in the 285/300mm area.

Yes, and also uses same battery as Sopmod/CQB.

Well well the family grows, a SCAR-L joins it: http://www.hyperdouraku.com/event/praragi1010/index.html Featuring bolt stop + blowback + SOPMOD mags!

So I take it that the barrel nut threads were compatible?
