.... ######s.

any idea if there are any shows coming up that Maruzen WILL be at?

only, if i can't get the new Vz. until late next year, (which possibly means never at all) then i'm going to need a hell of a lot of more spare mags for my gbb...

did they mention anything about the power or the price of the three new AEP SMGs?

nope as they are just concepts. You could speculate that it will share the internals of the MP7. Maruzen and KSC do not attend show.

Do you know if they'll make new M16 mags that feed all the rounds? Or any other mags for that matter?

Have you held the KSC m1911 yet? (I know it wasn't at the show, but you might of somewhere else) If you have, how does the TM compare?

Thanks mate, my suspicion is that the KSC will be better.

Just out of interest, how did they manage to get 26 rounds in that mag, in single stack?

Edit: Unless you were just saying the mag is single stack and the BBs are in double stack formation?

You all seem to be forgetting the m14, which was basicly full metal.

7 day suspension you say?... Oh well.

excellent pics far east! thanks!

and yes, I agree the M14 qualifies as the first all metal gun, especially the od stock version.

but nice to see they are continuing the trend!

Still no news on the L85A1.

Great write-up! Is there any basis to these rumours about a TM L85? Cos I read the thread you started about questions for the TM reps and someone asked you to ask about one.

For that matter you could also say that VSR series was "full metal" also. Bolt-action though...

Fareast, if you weren’t married and a man, I would marry you.

I'd also like to add that the M1911a1 being ALL-plastic is a bit disappointing. I was hoping that at least the frame would be metal like the TM hi-capa 5.1.

Future releases

Well I’m sorry to break the news but it looks like the TMP, Vz and MAC10 will not be released until next year some time. But we will not being seeing them for a while yet.

WE probably wont be seeing them at all.
