hitmanNo2 Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 As many people suspected the VFC M&P full size has been shown at Shot. In black and tan. Very nice. Slide on the tan looks a bit gold but we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Its worth saying that these were at the Spartan Imports booth. So its the distributor showing them off now. Hopefully that means they'll be releasing them to retailers soon. Ive had to try soooo hard not to cave and get one of the WEs. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hellz yeah! Been waiting for this bad boy for 1½ years it feels like. About time. Me gusta! Definately grabbing one of these. As for the tan slide, I think they went for the VTAC look which is more towards bronze/gold; Guugle M&P VTAC for more referense pics as it differes alot depending on lighting. http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product4_750001_750051_783001_-1_757954_757781_757781_ProductDisplayErrorView_Y I think the tan frame looks kinda off though but as I saw with the WE M&P it's heavily affected by white balance settings.

hitmanNo2 Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Ah yeah. I've not seen the VTAC in those lighting conditions. I always thought it was straight up tan. Fair play. Link to post Share on other sites
kenxin Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Well, that's it. Either marui announce the release date of theirs before this comes out or I'm getting one of these. It probably has that stupid full auto switch but I no longer care. Here's hoping the sights are RS compatible. Link to post Share on other sites
Leon Kennedy Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Any pictures of the other side? Curious if they went .40 or 9mm. They should have given the FDE one some VTAC-ish sights. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 If I recall correctly it was confirmed in a thread on here that the VFC M&P 9C was compatible with RS sights. Can't find it though. Also following that same logic I would assume this is the S&W M&P9. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hmm, well given the issues with the WE model and I haven't really seen a bad report about the VFC M&P9C this might be going on my list of 'to buy' models. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Now that's something really worth considering. Sadly though, as this would undoubtedly stink of Cybergun I will have to pass on principle alone. Then again, are the "Asian" export versions free of CG's reach? I remember the case was so on their Tommy guns. Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 The only issue I've had with my M&P9c, is the right hand side of the release doesn't work (that could be due it being a lemon, I don't know, and not representive of all the M&P9c's made by vfc/stark). That tan sure looks preeeeeetty. Link to post Share on other sites

I remember the case was so on their Tommy guns. I though CG / Umarex / other BS trademarks company only held sway in the European and possibly US areas? If so it would be good to see, like the PPQ, an Asian version with better markings. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

Horsem4n Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 its a shame that there is already aftermarket support for the WE. hopefully the same parts come out for this one as i really like the SAI slides and match triggers. i also hope for some CO2 mags at some point. either way though, ill probably never buy one. i have a small list already: Marushin CO2 5.7 KWC M712 Marui HK .45 Link to post Share on other sites

'FireKnife' That's because I haven't gotten one yet Then you will know it's I would also like to see a threaded barrel for this but generally these Stark/VFC pistols have like zero after-market support, which is a real shame.

NonEx Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Release date stated to be within 60 days and price to be around +$20 USD from M&P9C. So around $135-165 depending on retailer I would guess. Does have the full auto switch.

Reminds me of people asking if you can get a MBK for a TM 5-7 . Though to my mind I just want to see how it goes given that the main competitor is the WE and that was somewhat sloppy.

NonEx Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Been watching a few of the Dr. Airsoft videos from Shot Show and perhaps the Dr. should go see a Dr. about his hearing. He asks the same questions like 2-3 times in every interview. Annoying as hell. I also facepalmed over the plastic comment but perhaps he knows the 5-7 is polymer IRL but still doesn't care for it because it is "plastic". However he did seem to like the M&P which is a polymer lower, so And a Creation inner slide for the TM 5-7 can hardly qualify as an MBK... Link to post Share on other sites
