xlizer Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 It looks like KWA is expanding their PTP line to other types of pistols. This time it's a SIG P226 that they're marketing as a M26R. Unlike how the M9 PTP was manufactured, there seems to be only a full metal version of this one. The other may come later or not at all.

Mr.Hyde Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Great, now I have to choose between a M9, P226, and 1911. I wish they would stop releasing stuff I want, it's pretty annoying as I do not have enough money to buy it lol. Correct me if I am wrong, but this is the first full metal P226 on the market right? Looks like KWA/KSC has a new market . It's a lot for a pistol though, $170. I bet AEX has it marked up too high, we'll see when more retailers get it in. Link to post Share on other sites
Magsz Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 KJW has had a 226 out for a while now (i think, unless its a 229, fairly certain its a 226). Link to post Share on other sites
Hvy gear Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Yup, they've had a 226 out for a while now and a 229. Link to post Share on other sites
justin.kovacs Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Great. Now I have to buy the KWA P226 to match my KWA M9 PTP. I've got the KJ Works P226. Had it for some time now and very happy with it so far. It is full metal, no trademarks. Link to post Share on other sites
Fade Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 From what I understand, this is a limited edition size of 600-700 pistols. The price is not bad considering a TM226 with a nice metal kit at AEX costs $330. AE Max P226 Link to post Share on other sites
mr eagle Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Don't wanna sound stupid but what does PTP stand for? Link to post Share on other sites
justin.kovacs Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Professional Training Pistol = PTP Link to post Share on other sites
mr eagle Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Professional Training Pistol = PTP I thought it would be something similar to that, its amazing what they will market something as to sell more. Link to post Share on other sites
gonzo1 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I hope they'll come out with a 1911 PTP, cause that's what I'm waiting for. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Hyde Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Didnt they do that already? I do not think it was labeled PTP but I am pretty sure they re-did the 1911 and added a metal slide and frame. Dang it now I want it............ Link to post Share on other sites
Crimson Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 is the PTP exact size and weight as real steel ? Link to post Share on other sites
DWells55 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Highly doubt it, probably just a buzzword to build off of Systema's reputation. Link to post Share on other sites
Azulsky Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Its not a ripoff They are simply just better versions of the regular KWA line Im holding out for the USP rereleases Link to post Share on other sites
hatchet_warrior Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Arg I just bought a USP because I couldn't afford a 226 with metal. I should just learn to wait a week, instead of jumping on every single good deal I see. Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorKajita Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 is the PTP exact size and weight as real steel ? I was at the AEX in Oakland, CA today and held the new PTP and the weight is very similar to the real steel version except it's slightly top heavy. Link to post Share on other sites
socomsar Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Any word on threaded barrels for it? Cause if/when one comes out, I am buying this. Link to post Share on other sites
Kirby1986 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Was at AEX Sacramento. Held one, and fired one. The grips feel fantastic. They are a bit slimmer than the TM ones and they are textured fairly roughly, like about 120 grit sandpaper. It feels much more proportionate with the real one due to the weight as well as the grips. However, firing it was a bit of a let down. The trigger and hammer wasnt as nicely set in as I expected (pull the trigger, hammer would fall but would kinda bounce back and forth at would looks like half cocked). The recoil on it is somewhat sluggish, probably due to the very heavy slide on it. And I did not experience great accuracy. FPS wise, it was constant at about 330fps +/- 5fps on a 10 shot spread.

Sale Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 The trigger and hammer wasnt as nicely set in as I expected (pull the trigger, hammer would fall but would kinda bounce back and forth at would looks like half cocked). That is how the real P226 works as well. The Tokyo Marui style "all the way down" hammer action is the unrealistic one here. -Sale Link to post Share on other sites
seppuku Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Looks like it's gone now...Hopefully they have another run of them. What are the exact differences between the PTP and "regular" KWA guns? Link to post Share on other sites
socomsar Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 I have mine. It's brilliant, although i think the slide's too light. Feels like plastic, but it is aluminum under all the paint. Does anyone know if the slide is at all marui compatable, or if there are any aftermarket parts available? Link to post Share on other sites
Sale Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Does anyone know if the slide is at all marui compatable, or if there are any aftermarket parts available? It's based on the KSC system. Zero compatibility with Tokyo Marui, but you may be able to find some KSC parts should you need them. Or who knows, maybe KWA makes spares available as well. The PTP series seem like quite serious pistols. -Sale Link to post Share on other sites
