usmc0621fro Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 It looks like they have another 1911 on the shelf in the background and some mock ups in a case as well, I wonder what those are. But the Px4 was pretty awesome, can't wait for a release date. That's the Foliage Warrior I think. Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 yeah noticed that in the pics linked later on, and the mock ups are the XD, M&P, and the HK45 we saw a long time ago. Link to post Share on other sites
Kenworth W900 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 If it comes down in price then it will make a perfect loaner gun for someone like myself. I have loads of mates that want to come into the sport but I dont trust them with some guns for two reasons. Firstly, there is a tendency to break long guns by sitting/falling on them or whacking them on trees (solved by the rock solid front end system of the AK and overall compact size). Secondly, they throw massive burst of fire and I worry about the stress on my V2 based guns (solved because TM V3 is one of most reliable platforms). Another advantage is the high ROF which is in keeping with my current loaning process whereby I often give away my best perfoming guns because otherwise I have a massive advantage over a newb and its too easy for me. Also if you give a newb a gun like this then they will instantly be drawn into the sport, all newbs love high ROF and the chance of actually hitting somebody at their first game - give 'em a *suitcase* gun and they will just get shot out of every game before they can experience the best part of the airsoft, WINNING. Ofcourse there is also the sexy looks, which are sure to captivate a newbie and drag them into the darkest depths of this expensive sport. It still isn't ticking many boxes for realism and TBH it wouldn't look good in any themed game. However, it just goes to show that if a quality manufacturer like TM take on a design they can massively increase the sexiness. The chinese tactical AKs have all been very tacky and paintball markerish but TMs offering is just plain sweet - do want. Link to post Share on other sites
GingaNinga Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Local retailer Echigoya has started taking pre-orders. Recce is 45,000 yen Scar is 40,000 yen AK is 23,000 yen Foliage Warrior is 13,000 yen Px4 price hasn't been released Strong yen might make these prohibitive, but at least the prices are cheaper than what was advertised at the show.

Isamu Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 hope with recces realease the other recoiled M4's price drop a bit Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Black SCAR-L will belong to me, so glad I called that one right; finally another use for all these new gen mags. Link to post Share on other sites
Vercingetorix Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Google currency converter is there for a reason, I'm sure you can use it Any news on the 40rd mags? I think I'll send echigoya an email at their english site or contact Tirador.... Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Prices in USD,please. www.xe.com Bear in mind the exchange rates shown on there are wholesale and the prices will actually be higher, but still.... Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 DStole, no news about HK416? My bad! If TM launches a HK416/417 with the sopmod gearbox could be both awesome airsoft guns LOL! Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 It seems a bit odd for Marui to use such different systems. The Ak's, G36 and now SCAR using main body based recoil and the sopmod/socom with it's stock tube. I would have almost thought they could have used the same sort of system on the sopmod and then keep it the same for the whole range. Who knows. If they go for the 416 I wonder if they'll use SCAR recoil or sopmod. Could do it either way really. Still, more choice is a good thing. If I liked SCAR's I'd probably be delighted.

RacingManiac Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 The same packaging constraint of the RS applies here. AR with its bore-chamber-buffer in one axis design kinda necessitate the moving mass to be in the buffer. While AK/G36/SCAR in real life all uses the over the barrel piston action, which means the receiver will have more space above the bore axis in this case for the recoiling mass....which otherwise is unused in AEG.

Nowhere to put your fancy recoil buffer tube. Link to post Share on other sites
Boba_Fett Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 It seems a bit odd for Marui to use such different systems. Hm...they invented version 1, version 2, version 2b, version 3 with minor modifications for all available models, version 4, version 5, version 6 in two different setups, version 7, version 8 and now version 2 EBB and version 3 AK EBB and G36 EBB. Where´s the beef? Guess they will handle this Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 lol... well that and the AK/g36/scar have FOLDING STOCKS. Nowhere to put your fancy recoil buffer tube. The RS piston arrangement is the reason why they have folding stocks....root cause... Link to post Share on other sites
