I'll check it out ONLY if PTS doesn't do their usual 'price the airsoft part practically the same as the actual rifle part' whole deal. If they do, ACM UBR it is for me!

Big question is price... I'm really hoping for somewhere around $125, but given PTS' pricing track record, it may be the RS cost, which is way over most airsofters budgets.

Pity it's not for the G&P/WA GBB.
We should have bets on the price (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ...my guess is be $260 mark. |

Have you noticed though that the PTS prices aren't too far of from the RS? Check out the MBUS and MIAD. In fact for the CTR stock the PTS version is slightly more expensive than RS.

I know, but the thing is, people still buy 'em. I would buy a CTR at $90, but wouldn't buy a PTS PRS for $250. Hence, the PTS PRS sells very poorly in comparison to the CTR and to the RS selling distributions. In the same way, though more will buy the UBR than the PRS, it won't sell too well with airsofters... just my .02.

Does the UBR require a longer buffer tube?
If it does than that will drive the price up with a proprietary buffer tube. -------------------- |

I think the UBR comes with a Buff tube. The RS one does anyways. The Buff tube is proprietary, however, but I don't see why they wouldn't include one with the gun.

It appears this Magpul PTS UBR is for the AEG and in the photos it comes with an adapter for a short ended receiver rather than for the long ended receiver. So I don't believe it comes with a buffer tube.
The ACM version comes with both AEG adapter and a buffer tube for the WA/G&P styled GBB. The external length of that ACM UBR buffer tube is the same length as RS. However inner depth seems to be deeper than a std buffer tube. e.g. I needed to put in a speed buttstock buffer for the ACM UBR buffer tube. Or, maybe my std. buffer tube already had a speed buttstock inside without me being aware of it. |
