WGC: tasty bullets
these too

These are *fruitcage*in awesome. I love how the first one comes with deans and is designed for lipo battery.

only nice thing about them is the muzzle break.
still can't get over how ugly those collapsable wire stocks are.

Its a vast improvement on that stubby killer abomination, but it doesn't flick my switch.

you're page title is horribly misleading and got me stupidly excited only to be dissappointed when said "tank" had no tracks and was in fact yet another armalite variant tongue.gif lol

personally i hate he whole 'shorty/stubby/patriot' look of an m4
i think it just looks silly.
although i would really like to see a retractable stock similar to an mp5 stock for an M4 (preferable without a buffer tube which i know is not realistic but there you go) or even a wire stock like that but again with no buffer tube.

EDIT - yes i agree the title is ridiculous MODS please alter the titel to something more fitting.

My thought exactly.

In the world of airsoft, the fact that "TANK" actually refers to yet another armalite variant cannot possibly come as any kind of surprise ever. wink.gif


Anyway, you whiners, here's your tank. tongue.gif

Oh my....


That's such a hideous contraption. Why would any assault weapon need a muzzle break like that? What's it firing, .50 BMG?

Pretty much all of G&Ps guns, especially the ones with collapsible stocks, come wired for Deans. Even though it's "wired for lipo" I'm skeptical as to whether or not it could handle the ROF that accompanies a lipo.

Personally, as a back up gun, I don't mind the wire stock version. One of my Sniper friends uses a MP7 for his back up. This might be too big for a sniper's back up... or maybe not.

QFT. Those things are just bad. I don't see the usefulness in them anyway. They can't be very solid at all. Who ever likes those things is seriously *fruitcage*ed up.

mrk, watch your back dude, Chris Costa's beard is going to come and get you, I imagine in a similar way that Chuck Norris' might, and when it's done with you, Matt Johnson is going to make you a 750D Cordura bodybag (it's innovatively better than 500D and 1000D, naturally), in a khaki colour that's not quite green, not quite tan, not quite khaki.

Heh, most AEGs can handle lipos - they do come in a variety of voltages and discharge rates.

I'm a huge hater of armalites, except those tiny CQB midget ones - even better, patriots. The wire stock one is just a patriot with a wire coat hanger. Yummy! biggrin.gif

The crane stock one is basically just like the CA CQB, which is cool, but the wire stock one is different.

I think the wire stocked AR was supposed to remotely resemble the M231 Port Firing Weapon.

If that is really what G&P were trying to do by calling it Tank.

That being said, the M231 was a horribly designed weapon in my opinion. No proper sights, only full auto, muzzle rise was rampant due to full auto, and the barrel got very hot, very fast.

My thoughts Kirby.
The M231 wasn't meant to be used outside of a Bradley hence the lack of sights (and stock too in the final version), it is said that it lacks stock and sights to discourage soldiers from using the shorter lighter M231 instead of their M16s, I guess the M231 may be good enough to be used with firing ports.
Back to the G&P Tank, I like the looks in some way, but it's too much fantasy for my taste.
