NonEx Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 FULL TRAVEL BLOW BACK :-D Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Still need to wait for more information, but my hope is that the WE blow back internals are going to be better than TM's decade (s?) old system, so it will likely function better than the TM version. There's also hopes of co2 with WE, where as TM will never have that... hence why I'm waiting. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 There's a comparison review between TM and WE on FB (can't find it now) which shows a cutout on the magwell similar to the KWC that indicates a possible CO2 mag in the future. Link to post Share on other sites

icolater Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 But there is already one for TMs desert eagle why wait for one that might not come and is definitely going to be of lesser quality and cost almost the same? Mafioso >>>>>>>>x100000 better then guarder, WE will also be newer design, better materials used and probable better performer then the dated TM. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 How old is the TM Desert Eagle system anyways? Must be one of their first model GBBs? Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 The ones that TM make now are an updated revision of their older GBB Desert Eagle from waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back. That's why they've got "HARD KICK" posted all over the box, to differentiate them from the old old old version. Justpistols.co.uk used to have a review of one, but alas, the site has been down for yonks I DID DONE FOUND A BACKUP: http://justpistols.arniesairsoft.co.uk/deagle.htm Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Anyone know the deal with the hold up with the silver versions? They're not out yet right? Must not be ready yet. Link to post Share on other sites

jv83 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 I think WA got at TM because their design was too similar so TM changed it. Wayyyyyyy back in the day. Thats why a TM Gen 1. non hardkick exists. Anyway thats how I recall it going down. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnman Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 If that's true, it would explain gen 1 TM's were so bad. WA's desert eagle was a piece of . Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 How old is the TM Desert Eagle system anyways? Must be one of their first model GBBs? 2003 for the "Hard Kick" there was one before that as well. Sad news on the mag front!! I was hoping for TM compatible mags so I could eventually buy Co2 mags and use my bloody Guarder kitted DEagles! Someone please confirm it when they get one! Either way soon as i've some cash I'll be getting one Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Wait, where is it that says mags are non TM compatible? Seems a mad move. Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 The gas router position is different. WE is a few mm back from the feed lips. In fact, from the looks of it (still can't find that link, but I recall seeing it on Vorpal's FB feed) I don't think anything on it is directly TM compatible anymore from the BBU to the hammer assembly.

Habakure Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Could be the fact I'm watching that YouTube clip on my phone, but the paint finish looks bad. Very quick spray job bad. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 It's a matte black finish and I think it looks off in most pictures and videos because they are not cleaned/wiped down beforehand. If you want a clean matte finish, wipe it down. If you want to shine it up, rub it in silicon oil and let it sit over night and wipe it down (can't guarantee that won't mess up the paint but it works on some of my other guns). I think you mean it looks kinda "blotchy" or uneven. Or if it's just the matte finish overall you don't like well then that's too bad Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 The real ones aren’t exactly works of art in the finish department either Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 I don't think that matte type of finish lends itself too well to black. If they did a burnt bronze, that would look pretty sweet. Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 Seen a real one and they look better than that (but that goes without saying). Now, my opinion, I don't like it and wouldn't buy it. Looks cheap to me (ah haaarrrrgh, it is cheap), considering some of WE gbb's have a nice finish it's not beyond the pale to expect a nice finish on this. Wont be buying the black one, will wait to see what the chrome, nickle or even silver finish one looks like. Link to post Share on other sites
The Disavowed Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 I really really want two! I wanted to wait for the silver version, but I don't know, I might just have to get a black one. Blooming decisions. Link to post Share on other sites
The Disavowed Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 Oooooh, damn my lack of technical ability, I cannot screen shot and post, but I laughed when I saw in airsoft taiwan website the Weagle listed as "Cybergung" lol Link to post Share on other sites
