VFC: M4 E Series
Very interesting news from Vega Force Company - announcement of "economy" M4/M16 is certainly interesting for budget minded players:

Models:

M4ES 105R
M4ES 145R
M4ES 200R
M4ES Defender
M4ES Tactical CQB
M4ES Tactical Carbine

As the simple living has become the world trend, the concept of Economic, Enough, Valuable, has become a new mainstream consumer, VFC naturally should have not stay outside in with this trend. Thus, E Series has become the VFC year of 2009 mainly product lines.

VFC is different from the past, invariably to meet the luxury demand of Heavy User. E Series is about the high cost/performance to Economic, Enough, Valuable, for the entire idea of the product. In other words, Take an affordable price in order to provide users with a useful electric gun.

Appropriate adjusted the part of the process, the process has oversimplified, also to omit excessive packaging; however, the entire product of the metal parts remain metal, the place is still as real steel without losing quality and detail. The most important part of AEG, GEAR BOX SYSTEM does not compromise because it's cheaper. We still use precision CNC machining of 8mm gear box, with high-strength pistons and steel gear, making the former settings can be directly using the Li-poly battery. Therefore, the E Series AEG is not only high rate of fire (ROF), high performance, easy to use, but also easy to upgrade.

E Series to represent the excellent in value of price, but without losing quality, even greater durability, practical and truly able to meet the majority of players on the VFC brand demand.

That Socom Gear one looks interesting for me as I like the smaller AR15 designs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Although... Getting one could be a PiTA.

So first Classic Army and now VFC, hmmm interesting developments these be, but come on M4's how about one m4, one Ak74 and one SCAR heavey/light? That would have been interesting.

[helping_hand]

I agree. Sportline PDW anyone? Still now that they are doing it maybe if they're successful with the Armalites they'll move onto the other designs?

[The General]

Engrish, do you speak it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

[quinch]

Not a major fan of re-issuing M4 variants but a more "economy" like from the likes of VFC is actually very welcome.

Now holding breath for prices and availability to retailers.

[DarkLite]

Questions being of course:

Are the VFC offerings full metal? One piece barrels? Bolt catches? Prices?

[pforcerecon]

I would definately like to know more about the VFC as well. I love VFC, have had the opportunity to have 2 guns from them, love their attention to detail, and in my own opinion think that next to G&P do a good job (better job in terms of trademark placement and what not). I'd definately invest in their guns as well as G&P in terms of AEG usage, and with their own sportline coming out would love to grab a CQBR setup.

[Hispeed1]

Yes! Moar M4's! (not) I wonder who'll be making the internals of the DD M4-JG? It's being released by SOCOM Gear. I don't think they'll be using Marui or CA in there...

[The General]

Is the long barrel model really an M4 or is it an M16?

I actually really like the look of that.

[uscmCorps]

I wonder if any of VFC's SR16 type guns come with ambi selectors? I'm guessing probably not.

[rws591]

I was trying to figure out what sets the KAC rifles apart for their normal series, that is probably it.

[Whan]

Hmm... I wonder what the price point will be on the URX equiped e series. ~$300 maybe?

[rws591]

The really short one is 300 on WGC, so I would say maybe 350.

[hayabusa46]

Maybe same price as Defender http://www.wgcshop.com/pcart/shopper.php?i..._cat_VFC%20AEGs or 290$

So first Classic Army and now VFC, hmmm interesting developments these be

G&P has a cheap version too, for about 158$ and 167$ on redwolfairsoft.

[rws591]

Are those not just the older G&Ps?

[speculator]

Great to see more VFC products (even if they're armalite types). Price wasnt was I was expecting, but i would love to see some reviews about it.

[bbondaloose]

Hmm. 300 somewhat dollars for an economic version of VFC...
All depending on how good the gun is, and what small detailed were paid attention to, I might be interested in buying it, but I still would just buy something a bit cheaper, and upgrade it.

[rws591]

Al ot cheaper to upgrade the guns internals, if needed, than upgrade the externals.

[Shardik]

Ah more M4's. This is good news as we dont have enough variants to choose from as it is!!

[Browncoat]

Ah more M4's. This is good news as we dont have enough variants to choose from as it is!!

Have you ever heard about targeting? How many are there fans of Armalites and how many fancy AK47's? They don't do them for fun you know. Plus VFC's got quite a huge selection of other RIF's.
