DarkLite Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 http://www.marushin-kk.co.jp/j-181.htm Well, here it is - At last Marushin's MP40 GBB sees the light of day. 8mm and LD2 won't please those who will whine it's not a TM AEP, but he'll I bet it's going to be fun! Cheers. If by 'fun' you mean 'Not hitting anything you aim at because the LD2 system is the stupidest idea since John "Thicko" Johnson decided to have sex with a plugged in toaster', then yes, I agree. Still, GBB MP40 is cool - as long as they keep it at the 600rps of the Real Steel. Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Marushin is mataliphobic. Didn't they use quite a bit of metal in their Garands? The website says the MP40 is "Vintage ABS". Link to post Share on other sites
beasthunter33 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Didn't they use quite a bit of metal in their Garands? The website says the MP40 is "Vintage ABS". Vintage ABS, now that made me chuckle....THEY DIDN'T HAVE ABS IN THE 1940's!!! lmao. Link to post Share on other sites

DarkLite Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Hi, Darklite Cheers. I'm not saying I want a TM AEP, but I'm saying I'd like an MP40 GBB, 8mm or not, which is capable of hitting a man sized target at 10m. That's all. Link to post Share on other sites
snowman Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Fair enough - Still, some people won't care, will disable the LD2 and/or will just love it for what it is, the only GBB MP40 we're ever likely to see (until someone posts the inevitable 'Chinese Clone FTW!') Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
Stuey Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Hi all, That gun looks really cool, I've always been interested in GBB SMGs, unfortunately there don't seem to many decent ones around. Sorry for being a newbie, but what's an LD2 system and why will it make this gun hopelessy inaccurate? Otherwise this looks great. Link to post Share on other sites
AliceHKfan Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I think its that the HopUp Rubber thing is like 1/2 way down the barrel Link to post Share on other sites
snowman Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 and it doesn't appear to work too well - Still, maybe it works better when the barrel's longer? So the hop and the LD2 are further apart? Well, we can hope Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
Stuey Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 So you're saying that there's a Hop-up unit at the chamber end of the barrel and another LD2 thingy half way along? That is wierd. Do Marushin think that the extra Hop-up will somehow 'boost' the original Hop-up and get better performance or something? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Pinkfloyd Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Didn't they use quite a bit of metal in their Garands? The website says the MP40 is "Vintage ABS". Yeah, I have one of their new export Garand and it's absolutly awesome, but for the most part they are Metaliphobic. Link to post Share on other sites
lordyeray Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Still, GBB MP40 is cool - as long as they keep it at the 600rps of the Real Steel. rps -> rounds per second? Link to post Share on other sites

Guinness Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Oh yeah, I remember now- I think I may have done the scoop on this before too The "Vintage" is a pre- 'weathered' edition that looks battle-worn If I remember they should also be releasing a 'new' version as well in black Reporting from sunny Florida, -G Link to post Share on other sites
