renegadecow Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I guess this is now becoming a thing. Mechanically speaking, it looks identical to the earlier SG Tactical launcher except for the cutout on the barrel. Not sure just how much weight they saved in doing that or they're just paranoid some douche will convert one of their products again to fire live ammunition. http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/a-p-s-smart-shot-mini-launcher-with-belt-loop.html#.WC0K2L0RXtI Link to post Share on other sites

PureSilver Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 RC, I've been trying to persuade Blobface to make a 12-gauge revolver chambered for the APS shells for months, and he's being reluctant. I think you need to answer the call here. I'm foreseeing some kind of cross between the Manville tear gas revolver and the Taurus Raging Judge. [EDIT]Turns out Taurus demo'd a 28-gauge Raging Judge, but they couldn't make it non-NFA. That's 13.97mm/0.550", or 75% the size of a 12-gauge (18.53mm/0.729").[/EDIT] Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Oh holy lord a Judge running off Marui shells. I'd even take one in springer form if it pushed out 3 at a time Link to post Share on other sites

TheFull9 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Got over-excited a few weeks ago when I saw the Manville somewhere else and thought it had been in an expansion I played for the original Ghost Recon back in't day. Sadly wrong.Honestly though, barely see these mini launchers (of whatever style) at games, no doubt they'll die off the same as 40mm shower shells did years ago. That said if I were to get one (not owning a shell ejecting shotgun already) I'd go for one where you just drop all the BBs in; less ancillaries needed. Link to post Share on other sites
Wingman Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Shades of the Battlestar Gallactica Five Seven. Not as sleek but still.....hmmm Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 This looks like a nearly direct copy of the "SG" launcher that came out a few months ago. Even the firing mechanism looks identical. Except that they've cut part of the barrel out for some reason. I prefer the SG one personally. It fires aps shells just fine.

swatti Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 OK, I'm feeling a bit offended here... About a month before this came out I asked APS if they could OEM my mini-shotgun idea... Nice to see they did, but without me. Mine would be up for production but I don't have a retailer for it. Retailers won't return any emails or answer any messages on fb. PS: I'm 3d modeling a revolver using the APS apm50 shells. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Put two of these on the side of the shotgun it'd almost look right... Emergency load that doesn't even to be loaded to fire... Link to post Share on other sites
