Jing Gong: HK416?
Yul sent in picture of what appears to be Jing Gong HK416. It is rumoured for some time (as is HK416 from A&K and Boyi, for that matter). Anyhow, confirmation is pending, but this package looks legit. Click and see for yourself

WATAAHHHH!

I was about to post it.

Damn I almost had a hardon just by seeing the picture!

This is awesome! I always wanted a HK416!. Today is definately a great day.

This goes excellent with my Norwegian kit! W00t!

[TwinTurboCH]

DAMN!!!!

That looks sexual Wonder how long it will be until it comes out, and if it will be before or after the there stuff that was just 'announced' (my guess is after since the AUG military has just come out).

[judgeman]

My god. I must own one of these!

..except the VFC one will be metal. The JG one is probably plastic.

as far as I can see, the only changes are the front RIS and the pistol grip. the body seems like the old grey "commando" type and the mag isnt curved either...and no front sight. still nice.

there is a front sight, its flip down I'd perfered the more solid diopter/ring one that the VFC DX one usually has

`with the extra $300 you save you could buy 30 of those.

[AliceHKfan]

assuming you don't used it to track down and buy the Hurricane metal body/kit

yeah, just spotted it. but I like the one you mentioned better.

[barnezilla]

Isnt the hop-up on the VFC model supposed to be a little "spotty"?

[48thRonin]

No probs with my 416 out the box.

[Revenge Seeker2]

doesn't anyone find the pistol grip to be kinda odd? Like it curves out too much...

It's OK, I have a feeling the dboy one will be nicer... if it comes out..

edit:
oh and in response to Waxxer's comment, it also has HK rear sights too, lol

you guys here at way faster than the guys at ASF.

Man, I can't wait until people start mounting their PEQs like the one shown on the box.

dont think so, its just the cut of the box...but the stock on the box is a bit bigger than it should.

hope so. The only other flaw I can find is the receiver, which was already said, but this part I circled's supposed to be more "cylinderish" is it not?



But all in all, an Hk416 with a gray receiver and no trades of anykind doesn't temp me..

[CrazyJ]

One could always buy a new metal receiver

but it depends on how much the clone will be to justify the cost of doing so

Aha! good point. That receiver's inaccurate by the way (for reason in my last post )..

but that's still pretty cheap. Let's say this is $125-150 + ($144 + shipping) comes out to be around $299 - 324.. If shipping was $30... still good.. but I don't think its worth it. If enough hk416 clones come out maybe airsoftgi will drop $100 on the VFC hk416 like it did for the VFC AKs74u's.
