TheFull9 Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Again, not really, just stopped me being a girl who lies down and takes *suitcase* from people without giving them some back like a lot of other people here are it would seem. Taking the ###### out of people you don't know via the internet is not 'humour', you might want to re-check your definition there. Link to post Share on other sites

kken Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 then maybe if you don't want to deal with lugging a SAW around all day, military or no, then don't buy a SAW. Link to post Share on other sites
Panzergraf Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 then maybe if you don't want to deal with lugging a SAW around all day, military or no, then don't buy a SAW. Eureka, you found the solution! I'm hoping for the E1 too; it's my favorite M60 variant I hope they make it out of steel like the Inokatsu, though aluminium will probably hold up pretty well too if it's massive enough.

PlasticMag Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 My initial thought is that $280 is an optimistic HK price pre-shipping. I wonder if it will be like those $40 Peltor Comtac II's Paul offered which quickly became $60. Link to post Share on other sites

Payne06 Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Very, very, very good news here! One of the MK43's definately has my name on it! However, I'll wait till it becomes availible over here in the states. Link to post Share on other sites

Pablo Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Chas, CKinnerley - take it somewhere else. One man's humour is another man's wotsit and all that. Link to post Share on other sites
kken Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Where is the M60 VN? i do believe mk43 is being released first and then the vn a month later... of course that is cloner time so count on 6 month later. Link to post Share on other sites
SACSlym Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 shipping will likely be anywhere from 55-80 dollars via HK Post / EMS. Possibly more depending on how A&K Boxes them. (I would love it if it came partly disassembled, but alas Im sure they built them for the special people out there.) I pre-ordered, you on the other hand shouldn't Link to post Share on other sites

Bulletgrunt Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 What would be a rough estimate on the weight of this gun? Aslo, I don't how the internals of these are arranged, so I must ask, is there a motor in the grip? And one more, would there happen to be auto wind on the box mags? Link to post Share on other sites

(I would love it if it came partly disassembled, but alas Im sure they built them for the special people out there.) I pre-ordered, you on the other hand shouldn't Hah! More like $100 for EMS. A VFC Mk43 is around $100 to ship. Where on earth did you get $55-$80 from? Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 What would be a rough estimate on the weight of this gun? Heavy. Aslo, I don't how the internals of these are arranged, so I must ask, is there a motor in the grip? As long as A&K continues to use their 249 box, no there is not. The motor is parallel to the spring/in line with the gears. And one more, would there happen to be auto wind on the box mags? If not, your thumb will be very sore. Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 My advice to anyone considering buying one of these as a serious skirmish weapon would be to spend the day lugging a 249 around first. It'll probably put you off. Link to post Share on other sites

Forze Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 this one looks to me like a 100% clone of the VFC M60 MK43 . If it's made with the same type of parts this one will weigh about 8.5 - 9kg. The weak points will probably be the box mag (as usual), the little connection piece between the front & rear gas tube (extremely fragile: had one CNC'd to fix it) & the sling attachment (broke on the first day). I've played whole skirmishes with the VFC & can tell you it's a pig to carry around, but satisfying to spray the enemie to dust I'll order this one, just for *suitcase*'s & giggles Link to post Share on other sites
Dentonboy Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 M60 VN for me. If you skirmish with this, take a lighter second gun for the afternoon! Lugging around a CA M249 MKII makes you feel like Rambo and certainly built my arms up, but having a rifle to use in the PM after lunch was certainly the order of the day for me!!! Now, can I justify a KA Galil AR and a M60 VN...? Link to post Share on other sites
