First up, some news from FarEast (as posted in the forums here) concerning the upcoming TM releases:
Well sorry to disapoint all you conspiricy theorists out there but Tokyo Marui’s gun will be two new models of the ever so popular M14.
This time these will be in the style of the SOC 16 in black and OD sporting a sandstone finishing texture to the stock, it will also come with rail mounts. I have seen the finished product and i have to say it’s very impressive, and what with the reliablity of the TM M14 over that of the G&G this is sure to put a dent in thier sales.
Estimated date of release is next month and knowing the Japanese holiday season it might not be out for Christmas but with 100% certainty will be out for New Years!
The price will be identical to that of the current full length M14’s so again it’s a win win situation. According to the people at Tokyo Marui they have also fixed some of the issues reported with the 1st generation m14’s. (FarEast)
In other a quick review of TM’s 3rd generation Glock 17:
Well I have managed to get my hands on Tokyo Marui’s latest 3rd generation Pistol (The Glock 17 for those that didn’t read the title). This is the first of a new line that Tokyo Marui intends to bring out of the course of this year and next. It seems that Marui has placed the AESMP (Automatic Electric Small Machine Pistol) range on hold and only releasing one a year, while they release as many pistols as they can into the market. Next in line for us is the Desert Eagle .50 AE 10 inch, but that’s for another time! Let’s take a look at the new Glock!
Straight away Tokyo Marui is going for eye candy for the boxes of its new gun and they haven’t failed the new Glock17. The out side of the box is a stylish black and white montage. (FarEast)
