Jon has just sent over some scans and his thoughts after reading through the latest copy of ARMS magazine (cheers Jon). Here’s the latest:
There’s some shots and test data for the new Tanaka S&W M500 revolver which we’ve now seen a few times but are still eagerly waiting for. There’s also a shot of an advert selling the new GWS XM8 kit inside Japan available at Gate1 for 49,800Yen. Small side note here, Gate1 are one of the few Japanese websites that will also reply in English to emails – please be aware that they only ship inside Japan though.
In the roundup of the kinda random but fun odds and ends, the “Armalite Atrocity” (John’s words, not mine 
) is from Echigoya’s two page spread this month (if you’re a regular reader you’ll recognise the stocks from an earlier news post). The Unicorn grips (from left to right) are for the KSC Vertec, white and black sets for the Hudson Jericho, then underneath there’s some grips by Carom Shot for the Hardford Model Army pistol, some A&C grips also for the Hartford Model Army, and then some Altamont wood grips for the S&W 1911.
