Great! It's not so expensive because all made by CNC.

I believe it is inexpensive because it's made out of cheaper pot metal. Which is not a bad thing. However I forsee some serious issues with Inokatsu using a pot metal bolt (loading nozzle) on this WA GBB design. Hopefully they have a plastic insert for the actual nozzle.

It may not be CNC, but it's NOT diecast. It's forged, which is how real M4s are built as well.

Hey Titleist, I can tell you want this gun to be a winner however, and I'm sure you'd do this anyway, I'd let someone else buy this before laying down the $$.....the pain is all the more real when it hits you in the wallet

True story. Someone with lots of money to waste, destruction test it, then buy me one. Then buy Inoakatsu and get my goddamned L85.

Well then, i stand corrected. I still dont think its ABS judging by the pictures but we will just have to see.

C'mon its a toy gun, who cares if its ABS

Right, this is toygun as you say. So Why they are made of metal body with real type manufacturing processes?

Ah, the ABS-question once again. People just don't know what it means. G&P announce their parts to be ABS all the time, when in fact they are quite nice composite polymer. I don't care if someone says the parts are butter. When I hold them I know what they really are.

As for die cast / forged / CNC'd... The receivers are forged first to make a rough piece, then finished with a CNC-machine. That's how real receivers are produced. You can't forge it directly into a finished piece with holes and all. Machines to make the forgings are ridiculously expensive, and there are maybe 2-3 companies in the US who produce all of the forgings for all the manufacturers of AR-15 type rifles. It wouldn't surprise me if these receivers would be based on forgings from the US, and were simply machined into Airsoft receivers instead of real ones.

Did anyone notice that the trigger assembly is just semi auto? There no full auto disconnector etc. in the picture.

The hammer and disconnector are full auto type, as is the selector switch. The lower receiver has the hole for the full auto sear drilled, and in the pictures you can see there's a pin too. There's just one part missing from the picture with the trigger parts, and that one is stamped sheet steel even in the original WA. I wouldn't worry: It is full auto.

*edited* looks like the selector is just semi auto

bear in mind also if your not happy with ABS parts
there are plenty of nylon alternatives available.

also there may be a semi auto only version
but as the vids show , full auto will also be catered for.

Then it is, by definition, not a selector.

EDIT: Had one more look and compared them with images at AR15.com, and it still looks like a set of full auto parts to me.

The videos clearly showing it bursting, and doing full auto, you'd be daft not to believe it at that point.

Actually it would still be a selector. But you could only "select" between Safe & Semi.

[Titleist]

hah, at that point it's usually called a SAFETY.

[ZackyD]

oh i was well aware this is full auto, just at first glance it appeared they were using semi auto trigger group for the photo. i was wrong with that assumption.
