yay, another person saying the same thing as always rolleyes.gif

at least they've actually tried to make it different, with the stock, vert grip and body markings. personally, i cant stand armalites, but credit for putting one together that is different from any others.

Well, it's a KA, so it should be good.

But I'm a tad dissapointed that it's another Armashite - I would have liked to have seen something a tad more interesting like a Galil.

Isn't it obvious why they're making armalites?

They produce a full range of parts, so why shouldn't they get someone to put them all together and then sell them? It works for G&P, so why not them?

Yes, it is obvious, but we were just hoping that they'd do something like their FALs and give us a suprise.

It's a pretty nice variant. So long as it's under $400, that is basically a cool Troy style M4 which under normal circumstances would cost quite a bit to build.

Edit: just saw the expected MSRP to be around 340 euro... that's just shy of $500. Not so cheap after all. The quality of the internals would pretty much make or break it for me.

Nah, UnCo already has it and it's well under $400

Edit: I might actually consider one of these. Crack it open and drop in a lower srping and use it for indoors. Hmmmmm.

Nah, Airsoft in Europe costs a sh!tload more. Because everyone knows we have higher living standards than anywhere else in the world, so they just bump the price up to 1.5/2x as much as it was originally. dry.gif

Well they are coming out with a Bulgarian style folding stock soon (hopefully, because I want one tongue.gif ), but nothing to match... unsure.gif

Yeah but can you do it for 320 dollars?

It would cost more or the same to build it from the ground up than it would to buy the complete AEG.

True. That front end and metal body retail for about 170 and 110$. That means you get a gearbox, rear sight, stock and all the other bits for an extra 40$.

I'm definitely getting one, should be a nice base for my dytac mur receiver ^^

Aside from the missing TD grip and probably misspelled markings, that be a pretty good deal for less than $400. I spent quite a lot more when I built mine.

Yeah, but I personally have been burned by UnCo's low quality control and workmanship enough times when buying their custom guns that I'll never buy a custom from them again.

But it's not a unco custom, it's build (or put together) by King Arms themselves wink.gif

What shall we do?
The others from different European countries could import them, but they must pay the shipping and the taxes too...and so they have perhaps a guarantee or sth like that....
But its even worse here in Germany...this "little" thing is going to cost certainly 450 Euros... mad.gif dry.gif
