Looks like KA was beaten to the punch.

KA has the new style trigger guard though

[Kai_Wolf]

That is a lot cheaper than buying that aftermarket kit.

[Frontiers]

Though it says 0 in the stock department is it out really? or sold out already posted yesterday though

[Mr Foxhound]

Was considering a chinese AKSU, but after seeing RE5 think Ill get this...cant wait.

I own the Guns Workshop 556 which this one is a clone of. I'd rather wait for the KA version.

I bet it'll really bother you once kids at your local field start running around with these.. especially since you paid a fortune for that conversion kit from GW..

*off topic*

Does the GW conversion's material scream durability? or just custom. Thanks.

Not really. I could careless what other people use. I bought mine more as a collector and have never fielded it. Same with my Bizon. I had no doubt that they'd eventually get cloned or another replica be made. It's generally a safe assumption to make in most cases. All that matters to me when I play is that I enjoy my guns, and I hope others enjoy there's regardless of the gun's financial nature. I don't think it makes sense to judge others if they have a $120 gun whereas mine cost many times more. In the end we're all shooting 6mm plastic afterall. It's just a game/hobby and we should all just focus on enjoying it.

Well said How refreshing to hear someone not slagging off someone else's choice of gun. It don't matter what you payed for your particular weapon or what you use we're all airsofters

I was expecting you to reply to the 2nd half of my post but okay.. I see where you're coming from..

[Maple-Leaf]

Speaking as an owner of a GWS FDE conversion kit - it does kind of bug me that I went through all the aggro of building the kit only to now see two off-the-shelf products hit the market.

The same thing happened after I built a custom CA33K.

I'm gonna stop buying kits...

BTW - the metal quality of the GWS kit is pretty damn good. But I expect KA's will be too.

I answered the first part of your post because to me it felt like someone reading it might infer I'm an elitist ass, who looks down upon others for having cheap kit. Which I'm not. I just enjoy mine, I don't judge others for theirs, and hope others don't judge me for my own (because mine tends to be "Gucci" kit which carries a certain stigma with it).

As for the quality of the kit, I generally find GWS's guns to be awesome... so long as you have them prebuild it for you. They know all the pros and cons of their kits and generally build the finished gun error free. However most people I've heard of who just buy the kit unassembled seem to have a few headaches putting them together.

As for my GWS SIG556 and Bizon I'm very happy with both.

And based on how they customize my own 556, I highly doubt I'd see anyone playing with one that looks like it.

[Warning]

WANT this instead xD

just gonna have to wait for a UK retailer to get it and then BAM ITS MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MUAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *gets hit with a tranquillizer and falls over laughing*

Hopefully a 556 Classic is next...

[The Badger]

do they normally not have rear sights?

[Azulsky]

Its supposed to be embedded within the rail so it sits out the way when you have optics on it. Flip it up otherwise. Basically a stick with a hole in it

[Pinkfloyd]

Hahaha I still prefer my real one

I'd buy one for training if I had the time or money but I don't care enough to devote my recreational money to it. All my cash is going to ammunition, magazines and a heck of a lot of combat gear :/

[Leadmill]

I want one of these for a cos-soft project i'm working on, hope they have them in stock soon although I can see them being very popular.
