All steel apparently (apart from the grip?). Doesn't look bad

They only had 5 in stock when I ordered mine, there's only 2 left atm


AG36 next please I like my grenade launchers too much

[Minds]

ho ho ho ho.......Christmas comes early....

[olaman]

I'm going to order one of these nmo matter what, but can anyone tell me if it'll fit on a AKS74U?
I doubt it myself, but thought I'd ask.

As for the AG36-issue, I've been talking to King Arms about one, and they said they'd do some research on it.

[Minds]

AFAIK, it's clamped on the outer barrel of AK (fullsized) and the Ukkorocheniyj version have different GL mechanism.

[aeviv]

Just after i sold my goddamn AK, BECAUSE i couldnt find a GL! Need to buy a new AK now

[m98man]

I saw these...


They're all sold out now though. I REALLY want one.

[Minds]

aeviv : buy some Kalash RK, they do look really sexy with GPs......

Gunner have had these in for a week or two, not listed as out of stock there. http://www.gunnerairsoft.com/catalog/produ...roducts_id=1009

[-FIDO-]

uh yummie steel =)
why is it a china-clone-company to come first with this full steel beast?
why not another "better" manufacturer..then i wouldn't have such a bad conscience if i buy one..

I saw this on Gunners but I never saw it "in stock", unless he just got in a handful like RSOV and they sold out in minutes. Anyway Keith at RSOV said he'd ordered in quite a lot of these so with any luck some more should be in stock very soon.


As for fitting to an AK74U I suppose it'd be possible if you could put the mounting clamps on the flash hider, might look a bit odd though

Fingers crossed for an AG36, otherwise it'd seem wrong to mount a launcher worth a good £150 on a JG G36

[MDK_Marshal]

According to the site, there's -1 of these left =D

Seems someone put < 0 instead of < 1 [/computer science]

Looks damned sweet, though. If my AK wasn't falling to pieces I'd be tempted by one of these! And if I could afford it, of course

http://www.dragonredairsoft.com had them in stock before anyone, at least a month ago. I recommend checking them regularly they seem to get some random tidbits early at times. Also some of the items ship from the US.

Looks good but if I were you guys, don't get too excited about it being all steel. I have the lightweight star version and it still has quite some heft to it

They had the version 1 model. Gunner sells the V2, and I'm not sure about RSOV.

and how about the review? any review?

[Catman]

Mine arrived today. It's very nice, quite happy with it. It's just plainly spray painted (as you can see in the pic) so it's quite easy to scratch the paintwork. Good weight to it solidly made, didn't come in a box or with any instructions though.

Got it mounted on my Kalash AKS74 with no hassle, but as it's quite heavy there is a fair bit of weight added to the frontend of the gun. Not too bad to deal with though. I'm a little confused as to why the front sight post is spring loaded and pushed out to the right - had a quick look on google but didn't find the reason for that.

I like the way you can remove it from the gun at a push of a button, and it so easily clips back on to it's mounting brackets once you get lining it up sorted.

Only let down is the paint, mine also had a bit of cut/gash in the plastic pistol grip (it's all metal apart from the grip) but I think that happened in transit.

Anyway will skirmish with it before going into any more detail

Hey Catman

I'm curious, can you please post a photo of your GP30 mounted on your kalash? Would like to see how it looks and wondering if they have fixed the height issue with the clamps. With the STAR version, the height of the mounting clamps are too low (because they were made for AK47s), so you either need to mod the GP30 to fit or mount it a bit forward. This is the way I currently have it, but you also lose the ability to quick disconnect. If you can, post up a picture so I can see. Perhaps I can buy the clamps seperate and fix my mounting issues.

Thanks

[Catman]

hello



No height issue, no modding was needed to make it fit on the Kalash. And I can take it off and put it back on with no trouble at all. I'll do a full review of the launcher after Sunday when I've at least skirmished with it once, rather than doing a "living-room review"

[Hatman]

Back in stock at RSOV. Anyone got praise for those grenades Keith is selling? Or should I just order some of the new-ish King Arms ones?
