Wingmann Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 What's with the pew pew sound? Room acoustics. It's probably a decently large one, which creates reverb that the camera mic doesn't quite get correctly. Link to post Share on other sites

LordElpus Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I think we have found who the OEM for the BO "supermagneticawesomke" rifle is Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Unlikely. BO's stuff is advertised as 'magnetic', and while there are magnets in this gun (in the motor) there's no way you're getting a week's battery life out of what is half-PTW half-AEG. Link to post Share on other sites

The Insider Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 ok... so originally this was designed by a company "Scorpion" in 2012... and then due to one reason or another an engineer left.... to do his own thing... hence DAS is a second company created to work on this design.... so potentially there is two different companies are working on very similar models available in the future.and last of the good news.... The DAS version should be available in January. and now the bad news... i'm told... PTW pricing... lol.wait and see i guess... hopefully not everything i'm told is true. Meeting with DAS managment next week... will update if anything new comes to light. Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Awesome!! The insider, thank you very much for the news =D ptw pricing is a bit of a bummer, but i hope it will be worth the price tag Can't wait for more news Link to post Share on other sites
Rabianegra Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 PTW Systema or PTW A&K? Link to post Share on other sites
kullwarrior Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Looks like it is due to the camera sound or some weird accoustic problem. In the first video sound was fine. Is that a real steel stock? Based on Airsoft Canada and Arms-Cool discussion. It sounds like this system is just a modified TOP shell ejecting EBB. If that's the case the odd sound may also be result of motor having insufficient torque similar to how speed motor sounds when pulling a M150 spring. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 I don't know, it looks different to the non shell ejecting TOP EBB M4. Link to post Share on other sites
Tarr Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Awesome!! The insider, thank you very much for the news =D ptw pricing is a bit of a bummer, but i hope it will be worth the price tag Can't wait for more news Nothing is worth a PTW price tag. Especially if it comes with PTW "quality". Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 From what I understand the TOP shell ejecting AR is quite popular as a rental gun in Japan. The same gun can be modified to be non-shell ejecting with a kit from TOP. My buddy at ARMS Magazine said the gun (be it shell ejecting or non-shell ejecting) is fun, but struggles to make B/C zone hits at 50 yards. B/C zone hits at 50 yards is what most Japanese reviewers consider what should be minimum requirements for a long gun (25-30 yards with a pistol). It's also the standard TM require of their guns at stock performance and velocity. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 I highly doubt its a modified TOP considering they look like this on the inside.They both have a reciprocating cylinder assembly that looks like an AR carrier buts that's as far as their similarities go.

uscmCorps Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 It looks like he hesitates, then uses his support hand's index finger to hold the bolt catch open. Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like his support hand stretches forward when he pulls the bolt back. Sometimes I forget that not everyone has tiny hands like me, and can reach that far Link to post Share on other sites
CaptCalvin Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 Where does the battery go? If it's what I think then this'll probably be a fixed stock only deal... Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 The pictures and video of the gun setup with a crane stock are there in the OP. It's probably rear wired and much like a SOPMOD/ERG at this point. I'd like to see a front wired option as well but I can live with the crane. Link to post Share on other sites

The lower portion looks very much like the shell ejecting lower. The carrier can be simply be result of resdisign gear box to be more pleasing and useful to the eye. Notice how there's a main spring within the carrier? This is what I'm talking about 0:05 to 0:30 and 1:30 to 2:00 Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I thought too before I realised the buffer tube is going to be taken up by the buffer and spring. Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 What i would like to know is where the hop up dial is going to be placed, I would not want to remove the front rail if I need to set the hop up Well, January is not so far Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 That's what I thought too before I realised the buffer tube is going to be taken up by the buffer and spring. Are you familiar with the way the original TM SOPMOD is wired? Takes a battery in the crane stock. The buffer tube is obviously required in the GBLS gun for the spring, buffer unit and reciprocation of the BCG but that doesn't affect storage of a battery in the stock. Might be front wired since you can fit small LiPos inside a KAC RIS, but given the usage of the fixed MOE in the second video, battery in the stock seems most likely.

Yeah but where would the wires run through? With a full stock I can see the wires running through where you would plug up with an endplate with a collapsible. But what about with a collapsible stock? Also how would you front wire this? Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted December 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Yeah but where would the wires run through? This is TM's buffer tube, the wires come out the lower receiver along a "channel" that goes under the 6 position piece that is held on by screws. Link to post Share on other sites
