black shot Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 I wonder if PTS is going to go after these guys as well Link to post Share on other sites
Gigueand Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 That is the question of the hour. Perhaps MI has worked out some sort of arrangement to pay royalties to MagPul while rebranding the A&K offering. Maybe A&K didn't have the capital to do that initially, but now have a backer. Whose to say. I'm speculating at the most. Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 They didn't go for Andy's Airsoft when they where selling them. Link to post Share on other sites
Spooky Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Looks like the A&K copy... I wonder what's up? And yes, it will fit a G&G SR25 nozzle just fine. Hi, Are you sure for the G&G SR25 Nozzle? The original plastic nozzle of the ACR is very long and the G&G SR25 nozzle seem to be similar to the M4 series, no? http://www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?i...25RGB_srch_SR25 Link to post Share on other sites
Gigueand Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Andy's Airsoft is UK based, correct? I'd imagine that there is limited recourse for MagPul PTS in the UK. PTS could, however, go after the supplier of Andy's or any shops based in Hong Kong (?). Link to post Share on other sites

PTS could, however, go after the supplier of Andy's or any shops based in Hong Kong (?). Monda is based out of Taiwan, where Magpul PTS apparently has no sway. Spooky - G&P made two SR25 gearboxes. One was long in the front, the other relied simply on a longer nozzle. G&G copied the longer nozzle (I believe CA did too), and A&K copied those. Link to post Share on other sites
Spooky Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks StarMonkee And about the hopup bloc? Is it a new version? Link to post Share on other sites
Sonny Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I finally got mine after sitting in customs for almost 16 days! So far really pleased with the quality. I just wish it had a shorter barrel. Shot next to Magpul to show comparison, but too cloudy of a day to see the difference in color. Link to post Share on other sites
polystyrene Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Can't believe I only just found this thread. Loving the Masada, can't wait to see more Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Sonny - you can always cut it. I'm leaving mine alone, I like the 14.5" barrel. Link to post Share on other sites
Sonny Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Plastic I serious thought about doing it. I just dont know anyone who could re-thread it. Ill wait to see if they release any parts for this down the road. Would love to have a CQB length barrel to change out to considering how easy it is to take out the barrel. I know Monda is making one. Just need to see if will work with the A&K version. Better yet, who knows...maybe A&K will decide to do their own. Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I suspect the one Monda will be selling will be the A&K one. Link to post Share on other sites

Pedro30 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm joining the club! Just picked up my FDE A&K ACR on Monday! Is that the Mondo ACR you got? Should have just waited for the PTS one like I am, it will definitly come out sometime in a distant future... Link to post Share on other sites

Should have just waited for the PTS one like I am, it will definitly come out sometime in a distant future... Mondo ACR? It's the A&K (China) ACR. I'm also waiting for the PTS version. My Magpul contact has informed me they expect around June this year, though I expect a few more delays. They are currently working on the custom gearbox it will house. I picked up the A&K just out of curiosity's sake. Link to post Share on other sites

StarMonkee Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Just fitted a madbull sharkfin hop rubber to my Masada. Looking forward to giving her a proper test this Sunday Link to post Share on other sites
Noveske Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Anyone had issues with the less-than-acceptable-quality hop-up so far? It is rather fragile. Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 The hopup nub is too soft for the stock velocity, but there's another problem - the hopup adjustment arm doesn't press deep enough. I had to shim the arm with a piece of a business card for it to work, but now it works perfectly. Dropped an h-hop nub in it and it was ranging very nicely this past Saturday. Swapped out the motor for a Guarder ITU, much better response. Link to post Share on other sites

PlasticMag Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Looks very similar to my setup, I like it a lot! Did you use the MOE rails for the 6 and 9 o'clock positions? Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, the MOE rails and those were the only side positions I could get to fit. I would prefer the side rails longer and further towards the back, but that'll have to do for now.
