scar527 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Found this on ASF http://www.tokyo-marui.co.jp/products/08/l96aws/index.html Being as this is a sniper rifle, i thought i would post here instead of the news section so that more of us would see it. Also Admins, if this really is in the wrong section, please move. Link to post Share on other sites
AnotherJesus Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 What made you think this is gas? http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl...cial%26hs%3DDDu Link to post Share on other sites
Username_Here Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Probably assumed it was gas because of the mag placement. Nice to see a company other than CAW or KTW making a rifle with correct mag placement. Link to post Share on other sites

elrey Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 "VSR Kokkinguakushon inherited from smooth bolt series with Furuajasutaburutoriga." Kokkinguakushon must be "cocking action", but what is Furuajasutaburutoriga? Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Been in the news for a while, here's the details from the thread. It's based on the VSR-10. PDI X-Fire has put up thier version of the SHIZUOKA Hobby Show report L96 AWS Review To elaborate on the L96, the Cylinder, Piston Head, and internal parts of the Cylinder excluding the spring are of smaller dimensions. The inner barrel and parts are related to the VSR-10. All good areas of the VSR-10 is incorperated into the design of the L96. The magazine was made possible by using a sliding arm follower, which pushes the BB out from the front of the magazine, then carry the BB into the loading chamber. This is what Tokyo Marui calls as the "realistic magazine", as in real guns, the bolt pushes a BB into the chamber. The trigger pull can also be adjusted to the user as well. The pull of the bolt and trigger are both smooth and crisp. The bull barrel can also accomodate a GSPEC type silencer. Link to post Share on other sites
scar527 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Didnt know that i could translate that page with google. That is wierd how the bb loading mechanism works, i could have sworn it was gas. Depending on price, this may have to get one. Link to post Share on other sites
Panzergraf Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 but what is Furuajasutaburutoriga? Something about the trigger, maybe? Toriga->trigga->trigger? Anyway, with Marui being Marui, however they solve having the Mag so far back, I'm sure the end result will have us all going "aaaaah, but of course!" Link to post Share on other sites

elrey Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Sound it out. Fully Adjustable Trigger I tried my best, but I just can't do it like the pros with the manga avatars. Link to post Share on other sites
Kipper Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 I laughed for a long time about that. A translator has translated into engrish and even added a comedy accent. Brilliant! Link to post Share on other sites
Username_Here Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Something about the trigger, maybe? Toriga->trigga->trigger? Anyway, with Marui being Marui, however they solve having the Mag so far back, I'm sure the end result will have us all going "aaaaah, but of course!" The mag will work as essentially all spring pistols do, but with only a longer BB travel. Surely everyone who is into airsoft has played with and probably still owns a spring pistol.

Samm Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 The Marui news from the first post states (strangely); "Sun August 2009 26 on Sale New" Could be bad translating there, could have been easily changed too but if so it will likely appear on the HK market in the next week or so.

maverick343432 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 If it's priced right I'll be picking one up. Hopefully it's around VSR prices. If not slightly higher. Link to post Share on other sites
Panzergraf Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 If it's any good (which I don't doubt, being a Marui) and well-priced, I believe I might have to get me a G22-project going. Maybe, just maybe, with some work, the internals will fit in a STAR/ARES AW-338 stock, which has the correct side-folding buttstock. Link to post Share on other sites

wazzy1013 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 airsoftglobal has then in; but before i buy one, i want to know who will be making upgrades and if it uses the same internals as the VSR series or whatnot Link to post Share on other sites
Trasher Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Ehobby also has them in stock... Interesting pics of the internals: http://gungineer.web.fc2.com/marui_l96aws_...i_l96aws_od.htm Link to post Share on other sites
greg Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 I love the irony that most folk wont touch this until they can replace all the parts. This is no VSR is it. Way more complex. That system allowing the magazine to be in the correct place is a bit of a mouthful. Shame it wasn't the folding stock version. I reckon it will be popular in the end. Marui are super really & if Promy or someone turn this into a 500fpser, well. Greg. Link to post Share on other sites
Rhyn0 Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 doesn't look like a VSR-2 pronged hop from those pics. It looks like an AEG arm and buffer setup.. i might be wrong tho.. those groups look interesting.. Link to post Share on other sites
