Frapiscide Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Well, I've looked at airsoft guns for a while (mainly the sniper rifles) and I found what appears to be a good rifle, both from reviews and reputation. It's the Tanaka M700 AICS, mainly, I prefer the L96 style stock because of the pistol grip. Apparently it's really accurate and has a good fps, along with that power management system. So the question is, do you think I should get it? For a while, it'll have stock internals, except for a scope and bipod (the essencials).

Blackweell! Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Can't really go wrong with it And I hate you for having the money to buy it Link to post Share on other sites
AnotherJesus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 It doesn't come with a PCS bolt anymore. The power output is fixed (near enough) due to the Japanese banning anything over 1J. Link to post Share on other sites
Frapiscide Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Does anyone sell the PCS bolt separately? Link to post Share on other sites
StarMonkee Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 There are two versions of Tanaka's sniper rifles either way. The Japanese one and the export which still has the PCS. Even if you got a restricted one you can always buy the G&G upgrade parts. Link to post Share on other sites
AnotherJesus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 The export one doesn't have PCS. It has an unrestricted nozzle. The G&G power bolt also has an unrestricted nozzle. Not a PCS bolt. The G&G bolt isn't compatible with the KingArms/2Roy hop conversion kit either. Which seems a very popular upgrade. I'm not aware of anywhere that sells a PCS bolt separately. I think you can get them with the Bell M700. But it's not a Tanaka quality gun. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I thought the export versions came with the adjustable bolt (via opening the bolt and tinkering with screws) BUT a restricted nozzle thus limiting the maximum output. If you buy something like the 2Roy conversion kit, then you have an unrestricted nozzle which allows higher FPS. Link to post Share on other sites

If you buy something like the 2Roy conversion kit, then you have an unrestricted nozzle which allows higher FPS. Pretty much right on the dot. Then again, if you can adjust input pressure, you'll have 2 variables you can control as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Frapiscide Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Well, do you think it'd be worth it if I'd get it stock and non export? Link to post Share on other sites
AnakChan Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Strangely most shops in Tokyo recommend the Maruzen APS Type 96 as opposed to the Tanaka M700 from the perspective of accuracy/consistency. I've not actually owned either so I was asking around the shops. Link to post Share on other sites

I've not actually owned either so I was asking around the shops. Probably because a spring is more consistent than 134a gas Link to post Share on other sites
L4byr1nth Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Some guy over on ASCUK found a Spanish airsoft webshop selling original Tanaka PCS bolts... I don't think anyone actually ordered, so not sure how valid it is, but the picture is definitely an original PCS. I'll get the link. Ben. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 What's the name of the unrestricted nozzle kit? I've looked around google and haven't found it. I believe King Arms rebrands the 2Roy kit? You'll have to ask around to where people typically order their kits. Link to post Share on other sites
Clockwork_O Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 BOOM! Here it is; http://www.safarasoftair.com/index.php?mai...roducts_id=3487 Whatcha reckon? Ben. BTW this is not a Spanish webshop, but a webshop based in San Marino... quiet good webshop but long waiting hours if you don't speak Italian Link to post Share on other sites
