Marushin: Kimber Gold Match
It was announced, but now we know that it is actually coming. We are talking about Kimber Gold Match / Cartridge type. So, to the facts: it will be available late April, it uses 6 mm BBs, price will be 24,500 Yen (191.51 Eur), additional magazine 5,000 Yen (39.08 Eur), 5 rounds of cartridges 2,000 Yen (15.63 Eur).

At last someone does one of the Polymer Framed Kimber's, shame it isn't WA though.

But we wouldn't get shell ejecting goodness with WA.

Much as I like the idea of shell ejectors i'm skirmishing more know so like my guns practical (no punintended).

[Horsem4n]

er... 6mm?

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

means it will have a higher capacity. im hoping for 8.

i hope aftermarket support pics up for this.

That Mag bumper looks awful. But I guess it's a small price to pay for higher mag capacity (6)

[Horsem4n]

looks like a double stacker to tell you the truth...

how do you know the mag capacity is 6?

It is a double stacker, but they don't hold many rounds because of the gas resovoir. It say's 5 in the blurb, so you can probably asume mag holds 5 giving a capacity of 6.

Edit: Actually the five is refering to extra shells,but if they sell em in packs of five it probably holds five in the mag.

[Horsem4n]

nope, the glock 21 holds 6 in its mag and they still sell the shells in packs of 5.

[BigAl]

Japanese logic.

[renegadecow]

Cunning way to make you buy 5 magazines and 6 packs of shells to get the least common multiple and have the numbers meet. But less than half the amount of shells in a double stack gun? No thanks. They're better off putting the gas in the shells, have the magazine hold true amount and get their behinds banned because some troll in a Japanese forum would say "I can has gunpowders in thar lolz".

[fiddlesticks4220]

yeah lets keep that talk on the DOWN LOW. lol

[somegirls]

As nice as it is, 3€ for one shell is way to pricy.

[ED-SKaR]

banned because some troll in a Japanese forum would say "I can has gunpowders in thar lolz".

You do know that is not what happend, right?

They got banned because the style of technology has been illegal in many countries for ages, not because some internets dood went "omg"



Nice to see variaty going into the shell ejecting idea, but why the silly mag cap. Should have gone for a classic 1911 with a 7 round mag.

[BigAl]

A single stack would probably only hold two or three rounds.

[junior]

I know this will fall on def ears (or blind eyes), but enough Glocks and 1911's already *suitcase*! Why not make a shell ejecting M&P.45, or XD or some other cool pistol that looks natural with a double stack mag.

Anyway at least this one is 6mm...

[BigAl]

They should make that MP7 and UMP they threatened a few years ago. Especially if they could make it work with or withou shells so it coulds be skirmishable! Wish TM would re release their shell ejecting MP5 aswell.

[Horsem4n]

yeah, the shells are expencive. but, someone will eventually make cheaper shells. RA-tech finally made cheaper shells for the Glock 21.

[hitmanNo2]

Redwolf say capacity is 12+1. Not too bad.

[Horsem4n]

awesome.

Meanwhile Clarence Lai is hard at work creating a metal slide for this.... I might just pick it up.
