Hmmm definitely doesn't look as good as the RS. I'll save my excitement for some better pics, a spec and news that it's a decent manufacturer producing it.

Why does it remind me of JLS SCAR or something like that.

that looks a bit cheap. i never saw a masada, but judging by all the fuss everybody was going on about, i thought it was going to look epic. but it looks like a hodge bodge of a scar, m4 and something by fn/sig, and looks a bit *suitcase*.
no doubt all the fuss was because its by Magpul, which is well l33t, and because the RS is no doubt very good. which is obviously mega relevant to airsoft. all in all, looks very cheap, unimaginative, and a bit of a let down. at least its not tan coloured though. |

Honestly, the only thing wrong I see going on is cheap plastic. Otherwise, dimensions look ok.

Doesn't look good at all, if magpul made thier own aeg or kit (probs contracted out to someone like g&p or something) then that would be awesome.

Someone PM something that could be worthwhile huh? Group: Forum Regular Posts: 1,779 Joined: 7-September 04 From: 6ft behind you. Member No.: 11 Country: New Zealand  |
assuming that someone's camera settings is correct, Masada 1 photo (the only one I checked) was taken in the middle of August.
And I note an announcement from Magpul too, on the current page of airsoft-news. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) This post has been edited by Wege: Sep 17 2008, 03:22 PM -------------------- Kiwis are boring.

I was excited, until I saw the photos. Then I saw Magpuls statement. Since they have one in the works, I will wait patiently to see what they release. Early October will be upon us shortly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Besides, my credit card needs a break!!

Magpul PTS has already responded to these pics. Appearently they are working on a MASADA/ ACR AEG on their own.

hahaha. didn't Magpul check out the airsoft market first ? if so, they would have expected a clone of their rifle imminently. admittedly, comign out well before the 'proper' one is a bit weird, but if they didnt expect this to happen, they need to do better research.

Magpull are taking their own sweet time over this. It's got to be close to a year since they announced this PTS project.

Honestly, the photos do not look that terrible. Obviously the "plastic" isn't nearly as nice as the images below, but the same could be said for the JG (or CA for that matter) G36s...
(IMG:http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m97/Gigueand/SHOTShow2007-MagpulIndustriesMasada.jpg) (IMG:http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m97/Gigueand/1170085437masada-1.jpg) (IMG:http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m97/Gigueand/magpul_masada_shot_show_2007.jpg) I'm quite interested in this "clone (?)" because it will probably not have the accompanying high price tag of the "official" MagPul version. -------------------- I Guarantee An Awesome Increase In Radness.

Ohhh thank god thats just a clone, when I saw the photos I thought someone had done a dodo in my eyes. The clone looks very cheap, and even if it comes in a cheap price I'd be tempted to leave it on the shelf!
Theres so many exciting products on their way it would be a waste of money to rush out and buy the "thing" shown in the photos. I hope Magpul take their PTS straight to gas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) now that would be something huh? but if they have to do an AEG I hope they make it as close to the real steel as possible...... I actually remember a rumour circulating a while back taht they were going to produce their own rifle (PTS) in collaberation with Systema...I think that was written in one of the Airsoft International news sections! So this (upcoming) rifle could be the Systema "SCAR" I've been waiting for!
