KSC: MP7A1
This one would be unexpected... if only announcement of KWA MP7A1 wouldn't be floating around for some time now. Anyhow, KSC MP7A1's price is 34,800 Yen ( 255.34 Eur) and it is said that it is special edition model. Other important details: length 380/590m, weight 1610g, magazine capacity 40 BBs.

Lim-ed but hey, it's a GBB MP7 o.O

[chris u'5]

Thank you please!

I know quite a few people (including myself) who are very happy about this

[snowman]

Damn, that looks good.

Looks like both mag styles are planned too

Cheers.

yep, after hearing that KWA was coming with an MP7, I was waiting for KSC to come out with theirs

[chris u'5]

I bet she's a lot of fun to shoot!!

After they released their new MP9 I was praying this would happen! It's such a cool looking gun.

Wow, that would be immense for a bit of CQB heaven.

[chris u'5]

A bit of 'real steel' knowledge for those who don't know...

H&K MP7

the KWA is quite powerful with green gas thanks the the NS2 gas system. bout 370 FPS.

Well, it looks like the answer to Tokyo Marui's MP7, looks like there will be a tough competition for TM now (especially the KSC one being a GBB,which means more realistic, and adding on KSC's reputation for being so realistic and durable). Now I wonder what's TM's answer to this ?

Another AR-15 variant

[snowman]

TM's answer is what it's always been to KSC guns, absolutely nothing...

Guess I might be wrong and we'll see a swathe of TM GBB SMGs now they have the full Auto Hi-Capa Xtreme, but I doubt it.

Cheers.

where and when I can get this....

Probably, most of their guns are exactly the same, or at least mostly the same with differing trades and materials.

I expect KSC did all the R&D and setup and KWA USA are, as they do appear to do buying the export KWA models and just calling 'system 7' NS2'....

[Taylorb]

Looks good to me, yes please But yeh will they be stocking in the U.K if they are limited or will one have to import? And if anyone knows who's going to be getting them in and when, would be good to know

[rws591]

The reported price tag of almost 35,000 yen, so that would put it at about 360 dollars. No thanks, the gun looks cool but I wouldn't pay very much for it.

As Snowman said, I don't think this will compete with the TM AEP any more than an AEG will compete with the WA M4.
People who are fans of the MP7 will probably buy one of these regardless of whether they've got an AEP already and people who buy one of these (and, for some reason haven't already bought an AEP) will probably end up buying an AEP when this starts to cough and splutter a bit in winter.

Anybody know whether the bolt catch works on this gun?
It'd be nice if GBB manufacturers were starting to improve the realism of their guns a bit.

KWA did the R&D on this MP7. they are also responsible for the "System 7". i think anyway, i still haven't actually asked KWA yet.

when i said the same, i meant all the same materials.

[Punkypink]

Ohh yum. Then again, having had the experience I've had with their M11s... its a love hate affair.

[fiddlesticks4220]

I am pretty sure KWA is a USA branch of KSC no matter how much KWA would like to say other wise. As far as R&D goes it would make sense for them both to have done R&D on this mostly KSC because they are the ones in HK were the labor would be cheaper. As far as system 7 / Ns2 I would have to say not a hole lot of research was done because all they did was put the same concept found in their tried an trusted Glock into other pistols. Again I'm pretty sure KSC and KWA are two of the same. As Avalon is to VFC.
