thartwig Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Maybe you should read the airsoft section and not the airgun section. lol, my bad, i scrolled a bit too far. Link to post Share on other sites
DualWieldNate Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 I did my own bit of research before I read through properly and found somebody had seen it too. I found the single word Umarex it put me so far off this gun it's not funny. In fact I lost my appetite and didn't even eat my tea.... Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 its just a crappy low quality gun along the lines of the classic cheapo shotgun that everyone still has lying around. at this point, boycotting an airsoft gun manufacturer (remember how popular the boycott of cybergun got?) doesnt do anything and at this point its quite silly. if you think the gun will do you good, or you think its nice, dont let anyone stop you from getting one.

GuzziHero Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I have the idea of mounting this underneath another gun I love the looks... want NAO! Link to post Share on other sites
Versus Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I have the idea of mounting this underneath another gun I love the looks... want NAO! That honestly would make a nice looking shotgun for a masterkey. Link to post Share on other sites
Gaffa Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Now this thought may strike some opinions... I noticed the RIS under it.... Anyone for a bit of photoshopping in some type of RIS mounted GL to give it an even WORSE look. Even though, I do tend to like sci - fi things like this, so might have to give it a chance someday!

Horsem4n Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 i really like it, but the screw holes bother the *suitcase* out of me... Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 I agree with Horsem4n it looks like they have just got a P99 NBB n wacked a shotgun body on to it and it looks like a chargeing handle to me rather than a pump grip 'cocking' the pistol beneath. Which would also make it Semi Auto. Looks like one of us lot could build this with a spare shotgun body and a P99! However i do like the fact that it is a 'fake' shotgun that takes pistol mags and i really like the flash hider! Cut it down a bit got yourself a nice little side arm.

Horsem4n Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 no, you didnt read right. the charging handle you are all seeing is an internal magazine that holds the 40 bbs. the gun isnt mostley just a husk, it harbors an 88g cylinder (i dont think they are refillable and come in 2 packs for 20 bucks where i live which i think is more expensive than 12g capsules, but im not too great at math) 2 88g cylinders = 176g = $20 176g / 12g = ~15 x $.50 = $7.50 so yeah, its more expensive than a 12g system but then again, they could be cheaper, i haven't looked at the price of them in a while. is that math right?

Thank goodness for external systems Do a cutoff mod and I agree- a nice secondary for snipers or for a loweight loadout Link to post Share on other sites
swede556 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I have one but it has (or I have) a problem. It won't take the co2 cartridges I have. 88 gram but they don't screw in deep enough to penetrate the seal. I am using crossman carts and they don't work. Got some Walther carts ordered so I hope they will work. The only other alternative is that the gun is defective. The selecter seems to just dump the required amount of steel bbs in the chamber. Seems like it will just fire the three bbs at once, with no actual full auto sound. I don't think it will be an acceptable backyard substitute for my STEN or Cobray. I don't get out to the country very often to fire the 9mm a-guns and thought this bb gun would take the edge off of full auto withdrawl. Guess I'll just get another real full auto and go out more often. Kinda dissapointing when a new gun won't shoot. Link to post Share on other sites
swede556 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Finally got the co2 cartridge to seat. Had to use a pipe wrench. As I suspected the "3 shot burst" is just 3 bbs from one blast of gas so I guess shotgun is an appropriate description. Still it's pretty cool for such an inexpensive gun. As some have surmised the "pump handle" doesn't move. The charging handle is pulled back and 40 bbs are loaded. Then the thing shoots as fast as you can pull the trigger.
