Gunmane Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Latest promo video shows it, reddit already in arms, figured it needs to be posted everywhere. Interesting mag design (though I imagine RC could "improve" it somehow). So far it seems like it is semi only, which I guess makes sense for their design philosophy. Too bad it is going to be above my credit limit/not really usable where I live. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CatgutViolin Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Few things of note, some of which may not be obvious without translation. The gas magazine is basically a small lowcap/midcap bolted to the front of a gas reservoir. The magazine internals are easily pulled from the mag shell to warm them up as needed or check temperature, which is shown via temperature-sensitive stickers. This separated mag design should make it relatively easy to DIY a drum if that's your thing. Each mag holds 54 BBs. It's a tri-shot, so that's 18 shots. It has a fixed hop-up and vertical hop pattern (not like the AA-12/SGR-12 where the outer two barrels hop at 45 degrees). This seems to imply three barrels, not one barrel like the older Maruzen tri-shot Defender. Body is die-cast zinc alloy. Dust cover is steel. Given that the TM AKM is going for $450 USD on HK sites, I expect this to be quite expensive. I'm getting one anyways come hell or high water. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Secretly hoping an extensive surgery for an LCT RPK receiver transplant is worth attempting for this. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coolurjets Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 This is going to slay in CQB! Hopefully should be straight forward to get a skeleton stock on it, and (eventual aftermarket) shorter barrel kit, and a rail for a flashlight. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ardrummer292 Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 One step closer to a GBB Benelli M1014. My body is ready, my wallet is not. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It will be a serious missed opportunity if Marui doesn't combine this gas engine with the feed system of the shell-fed shotguns to produce something like that. A GBB SPAS-12 or M1014 would be a hot item for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

renegadecow Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 I'm guessing they're having manufacturing issues with the mag. It's really overly complex than it has to be with the removable gas tank. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarsdenH Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 That or they have realized that with both their AKM gbb and mp5 NGRS they have been sold out for extra mags since release. Or it's just like any other industry right now and having shortages. Either way it's a great thing for the siaga. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Be fun with a shorter barrel, Railed Forend and M4 or perhaps Magpul Ak Stock. Ful auto would also be fun. Edited December 7, 2021 by BigAl 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
