renegadecow Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Apparently people are buying these things as another company (though unheard of for me) is making double barrel pistols. Like normal Hi-Capas aren't fat enough. Available in black and a silver two-tone version. http://airsoft.tiger111hk.com/m317/Armorer-Works/p32758/Armorer-Works-HX2102-Double-Barrel-Hi-Capa-GBB-Pistol-(BK)/product_info.html Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Armourer Works are OEM'd by WE, just FYI - everything they sell is built on a preexisting WE product. They may just be an in-house rebrand. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted September 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 But WE doesn't make double 2011s (4022?) yet do they? Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm not sure if they've already been released under WE's branding; it may be that this model will be released exclusively through Armourer Works as that brand does seem to be focused on Hi-Capas.

NonEx Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 There's some info on the brand here: http://arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/216504-your-thoughts-on-the-armomer-works-guns/ I actually made a "da fuq!?" post in there when I found the double.2011. Not even a grizzly bear would be able to hold one of these things? Link to post Share on other sites
tquilha Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 As Monty Python would say: "Stop that! This is getting too silly." The double barrel 1911 is barely manageable for my big paws. Double barrel, double column mags... I'll pass. Link to post Share on other sites
jal3 Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm not sure if they've already been released under WE's branding; it may be that this model will be released exclusively through Armourer Works as that brand does seem to be focused on Hi-Capas. AW products are AW products. They are designed and assembled by AW, but a lot of the parts are made by WE (obviously). But they are AW products, not just WE rebranded by another distributor. Check their facebook to see what they're on about: https://www.facebook.com/armorerworks Also general note on the double pistols...they are AWESOME. They run so much better than a normal pistol. They have 2,5x gas capacity, 2 x piston surface, same recoil spring and slide is only 30% heavier (or so). So the performance is actually better than normal pistols. The dual G18C is actually very skirmishable, it will mag dump in one burst like nothing. Link to post Share on other sites
Dimitri MdP Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 So... you are the one buying them... Would you please stop doing so, so the theoretical WE "R&D department" can go back to design the actual products everybody wants, like a FAL, G3 or a proper Russian SMG? Thanks.

Brigg Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Considering the there have been items shown on WE's own Facebook page that have then been released as "Armorer works", I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in here and say Armorer Works is almost certainly a direct factory product from WE. There's very little doubt about it. Link to post Share on other sites
NeoVeNoM Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 That is one fat piece. Have to say the mag looks very good. Link to post Share on other sites
danr Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Considering the there have been items shown on WE's own Facebook page that have then been released as "Armorer works", I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in here and say Armorer Works is almost certainly a direct factory product from WE. There's very little doubt about it. The DL44 blaster I bought came in an Armorer Works box, but I'm guessing is a WE Broomhandle pistol (M712/C96/whatever) with some farkles bolted on. Either way, I'm hoping that Evike will stock the double hi capa monstrosity and then have some ludicrous sale on it, similar to how I got my more regular AW hi capa. Link to post Share on other sites
Wooly_Booly Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Armourer Works are OEM'd by WE, just FYI - everything they sell is built on a preexisting WE product. They may just be an in-house rebrand. There was a lot of drama over on Facebook (what the imgur link is referencing) regarding this. The sales rep was under the assumption that the company he worked for was an entirely separate company. I'm a little skeptical in thinking that if it was truly just WE he would've actually known. Also, WE??, the page they messaged apparently had no idea who the AW sales rep was. Link to post Share on other sites

Brigg Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Well, here's one thing to consider. All WE M712S have Taiwanese military markings on them. Which I think look great. The Armorer works Dl44 blasters however have no markings at all. And there is a version now for sale with Mauser markings on it as well. The markings on the WE version are very deep. They can't just be filled in or ground off. Which means WE must be purposely making unmarked versions that they are not offering for sale otherwise. Its pretty obvious that if WE isn't making the Armorer works products themselves (which they clearly are), then they are directly supplying them with special versions of their guns.

renegadecow Posted September 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Can't remember where but I'm sure I saw blank WE M712s somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites
Marc.RG1 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 lol yeah i personally think ALL double barrel guns are pointless, look awful and feel awful in the hands, yeah they have a strong recoil but that all they have going for them in my opinion.. I do like some of the armorer works guns though and i see mike cripps is stocking some, unlike mike to stock WE so could be a good sign, im tempted on a few guns to be honest, ill be able to compare them to TM and standard WE properly then, lets see what christmas brings, ATB, Marc.

Horsem4n Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 so. evike has this image on their product page for the 2 tone version. for some reason this is funny. mostly because of the typo. still want one of these double barreled jobs. wonder why this AW 20112011 is almost $50 less expensive than the WE 19112011 Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Oh, btw, I have been lookin at pics of this and the we 19112011s and it appears that this is no wider than the 19112011s. Will post pics when I'm not on my phone. Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 ugh, triple post time: AW 20112011: WE19112011 so, apart from the glaring frame fitment issue on the WE, they appear to be the same width. Link to post Share on other sites
