Epyon Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 From http://www.airsoft-news.eu/news.php Madbull Airsoft: GBB KRISS... and more A rather shocking (and anticipated for some time) news from Madbull Airsoft: they plan to introduce their first GBB replica and complete CO2 and AEG replicas of assault rifles: Friends, Thanks for your supports for the past year. We decide to release the following photos before Shot Show. You will be the first guy to see these pictures. Our original plan is to release these products at SHOT SHOW. (1) Authorized and licensed TDI KRISS Gas Blowback Airsoft proto-type: O noez I've been cloned!11 Ok, not really ;D Link to post Share on other sites
Revenge Seeker Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Wow, that really is something interesting. At first, I dismissed it for another MPEG, then I noticed "GBB" and that makes a HUGE difference. At least to me. I think shooting this little baby would be really fun. I gotta try one out when its released. Thanks for posting! Link to post Share on other sites
Pariah_WP Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 GBB KRISS? *Faints from joy* Link to post Share on other sites
Kalashnikov_kid Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I enjoy the irony that a smg that is designed to have lower felt recoil is being made gbb and therefore will have more recoil than standard airsoft smgs. Still awesome K_K Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Wow, that really is something interesting. At first, I dismissed it for another MPEG, then I noticed "GBB" and that makes a HUGE difference. MPEG? Since when did Madbull have anything to do with MPEGs? This is very interesting. I might have to have one. Link to post Share on other sites
snowman Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Looks like a nail gun... Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Looks like an ugly, malformed and over-hyped nail gun... Fixar'd. Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 i agree - looks total gash to me. Link to post Share on other sites
snorkelman Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 the ctr-02 also shown doesnt look too bad (though the sight they've got attached to it would be a bit ridiculous) If they do bring it out in CO2 and AEG versions at similar prices be interesting to see what sort of take up the CO2 version got against its AEG counterpart (though if they're sticking with a variant of that CO2 gearbox they brought out a year or so ago Im guessing on it not selling at all well) Link to post Share on other sites
InexcelsisDeo Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 although i've always been a huge fan of the RS kriss, i cant see myself carrying this in the field and looking cool with it hahaha props to madbull tho for thinking outside the box. the kriss is just not my thing Link to post Share on other sites
Inq Eisenhorn Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 That Kriss looks like SEX! I love new futuristic designs....if I can, I'm definately going for this!!! Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Ah what the funk is that???? Looks like people in the future will be fighting with nail guns that have been forced to look like this. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Think I'll reserve any form of excitement until I start seeing some photos of a prototype. I still dunno about the Kriss, would I buy an airsoft one? If it was "funky" when it fired; maybe Link to post Share on other sites
happy.al Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 It wasn't used in Nam, therefore it sucks. As sucky guns go that one sucks so much it smells bad. Link to post Share on other sites

IronWolf Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Bit of a risky venture on Madbulls part, good on em. Link to post Share on other sites
MDK_Marshal Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Cool! i love the looks of the KRISS, I may have to look into getting one... =D Link to post Share on other sites
felix4536 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 the KRISS platform in airsoft terms looks like it has the potential to be a very good GBB smg. Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I hope the GBB version has an external gas/cheap magazine option, or adaptable to, I dont want to pay a grand in magazines for a smg, only thing that has stopped me from getting one so far. if it does, SOLD! Doubtful, but one can dream Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I seem to recall the RS Kriss used Glock mags. It would be supremely awesome if Madbull made this compatible with TM or KSC Glock mags. Sadly... that is highly unlikely... but it would be a huge help to their sales as many of us have those mags already. Personally, even if it had proprietary Madbull Glock mags... I'd still buy it for CQB. And considering Madbull clearly has an understanding of the international market, it would be awesome if they made a version that was Green Gas compatible (unlike WA, TM and all the Japanese companies that are restricted from making guns capable of using GG). Considering that Madbull is a Taiwanese/USA based company... I think that is likely and would be a very smart business choice. I will definitely buy one of these. Thumbs up to Madbull for taking a big gamble like this. Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 The best thing madbull could do would be to design it to use CO2 bulbs with a regulator. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Well cool, be good if we get this soon the RS one isn't even out yet. Link to post Share on other sites
4boost Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Lol, I'd buy one just to have it. It's kinda cool... Would be great if they used CO2 bulbs in the mags like Angry mentioned. Link to post Share on other sites
Marcel Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Why the KRISS is nice in the real world: A lot of firepower and control at the same time. Why the KRISS is nice in our world: I really don't know yet. It first has to proof against MP5K/P90/MP7/UMP...because 6mm is and will ever be 6mm ;-) but the style factor is even before the release very high :-D Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 It first has to proof against MP5K/P90/MP7/UMP...because 6mm is and will ever be 6mm ;-) Don't forget another big difference between the guns you mention and the Madbull KRISS is that you're comparing AEGs to a GBB. That needs to be kept in mind. Another factor is that AEGs can use hi-caps whereas GBBs are only capable of using standards (historically speaking). However, if the KRISS is done right... and users of AEGs use standard cap mags, the KRISS can in all likelihood be a competitive airsoft gun. My recommendation to Madbull would be to ensure the default gun has high reliability, decent accuracy including a tightbore inner barrel, and runs on GG. Both short mags and extended mags need to be available. Parts that should be metal on the RS, are metal on the GBB etc etc. Just make sure it's a solid gun that doesn't need upgrading and you've got a strong seller. Link to post Share on other sites
