RacingManiac Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Awesome guns, Noveske! Checked out his Mong Kok offices and the Kwun Tong facility. PTS GBBr PMag please? for WA? Edited September 16, 2009 by RacingManiac Link to post Share on other sites
pforcerecon Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 luvs2shoot: Awesome job man, glad to see that 416 kit went to good use! Absolutely stunning! Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 PTS GBBr PMag please? for WA? Not sure what I can disclose. The ACR and FPG takes highest priority right now however. There was a lot of stuff said "on the record" and "off the record". Spent pretty much the whole day with them and are going back tomorrow evening for part two of the interview. Every single question that's ever been asked of them, every single issue people have brought up, every single suggestion people have made ... I have asked them all of it. Regarding the Masada ... it's everything you could ever want it to be and more. It makes me want to cry just thinking about it. It's just ... so awesome. I can't wait for you guys to see it. I've never been that much of a fan of the Masada/ACR ... but holding that thing in my hands today ... made me cream. I kid you not. Same goes for the FPG. Link to post Share on other sites
Pradal-Serey Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 UscmCorps: What Masada are they making? the older style (like A&K) or the new ACR/Remington/Bushmaster? Or both? Link to post Share on other sites
Noveske Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Awesome guns, Noveske! Checked out his Mong Kok offices and the Kwun Tong facility. Are you in HK at the moment? We should hook-up and wallow in our obsession and perhaps have a few games. Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) The one they're making will be the Gen 3 ACR ... but it's so much more. It's killing me to not say the details, but everything that's modular and awesome about the real steel applies to the PTS one, and then some. There's so much to tell about it ... but I can't quite yet. Just trust me when I say it's nothing short of awesome. I defy you to not sh!t your pants when the details of it comes out. That's how awesome it will be. Pretty much everything is done on it, it just has to go through final approval. I was holding one of the final prototypes today. Regarding the A&K Masada I've got the full story on that too in minute detail. And the conspiracy theorists are wrong, but I have to talk with PTS again to find out exactly what I can disclose and when. They were brutally honest with me about everything. And I do mean everything. Edit: Noveske. Yep, I'm in HK right now. I'll send you a PM. Edited September 16, 2009 by uscmCorps Link to post Share on other sites
Skully Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Shocking light in my room so I had a torch in my mouth to take this. All PTS MOE stuff but I like it! Now I need to find a metal body I can fit this silly blowback gearbox in. Link to post Share on other sites
Vila Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 uscm- I'm sure I'm not the only one excited about this news. Any chance you know of or can give out an estimated release? Link to post Share on other sites
pedrosalas7 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 or an estimated price Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I started to write a vague answer but realized that I can't really even disclose that much. The announcement will be VERY soon, and the products themselves will be out not long after. Can't say the price yet, but I was surprised by how insanely reasonable it is, especially considering how incredibly high end this gun is and in my honest opinion, this is the highest end airsoft gun I've seen to date (the quality far exceeds VFC/G&P/KA in every way). If you're used to buying any of those guns, this will be in the same ball park. Link to post Share on other sites
Pradal-Serey Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Thanks for the answer Uscm One last question : Do they plan something on the gbbr market? (beside pmags) like a complete gbbr gun, or a airsoft bad lever? Link to post Share on other sites
Kiki-Jiki Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 AWESOME uscm! When will you be able to disclose more details? Or are we going to have to wait for an official release from PTS? If so, any idea when said official release may be? What it may cover? Just the MASADA? More stuff? Oh man I'd LOVE some WA GBBR PMAGs! Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 ZOMNG, Masada................ I have a near new VFC SCAR L FDE for sale...... Must have Masada.... Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Pradal : I can't comment on that currently. They're doing everything they can to make everyone happy. Even those who've talked smack about them. There are so many awesome things on the not too distant horizon beyond the ACR and FPG. Kiki : You're going to have to wait for Magpul PTS' official announcement or if they tell me I can pre-announce it before then. There are at least three major (unique) things I foresee them announcing in the next few weeks. Some things are further in development than others, but the ACR and FPG take precedence. So that's two of them right there. They are definitely NOT ignoring the GBB market. They're also trying to form more collaborative relationships with other airsoft manufacturers and change the "everyone out for themselves" type attitude that's so prevalent in this industry. ZOMNG, Masada................ I have a near new VFC SCAR L FDE for sale...... Must have Masada.... You know what's funny? I had a VFC SCAR in one hand and the ACR in the other. As nice as the VFC SCAR is, there's simply no comparison. The ACR feels like a real gun. There's absolutely nothing about it that feels like a toy. It's a little scary and awe inspiring at the same time. Edited September 16, 2009 by uscmCorps Link to post Share on other sites

Operator12 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 USCM, thats great news... I hope it happens soon! For all you Magpul junkies out there, Im thinking about getting a CTR for my L119. Will the G&P li-po buffer tube fit the CTR properly? Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 It'll fit. Make sure you either get a real MilSpec CTR, or get the PTS one which will fit even better on the G&P buffer tube. Link to post Share on other sites
somegirls Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 geez, the great things is that even if we get it here in germany at all, it might take at least 3 month after it came out. Somebody please hit me so I pass out till x-mas. Link to post Share on other sites

Aitch Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 If their ACR feels better than the A&K I am there, It's one comfy rifle, and I cannae knock the quality of the PTS bits n bobs I have, FPG and I said I'd not buy ano9ther glock, hope it comes with guts inside Link to post Share on other sites
Whan Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Thanks for the info! Also, are there any photos you can post of stuff you saw there (talking not only about Magpul PTS but the HK Airsoft scene too)? Link to post Share on other sites
