Star is coming out with a AG36 grenade launcher with handguard and sight. Still can't tell if it's side loaded or front loaded like the Smokey's one which wasn't too impressive...I would think that they would make it side loaded but their AK launcher was also front loaded...hmmm?

The AG36K type only has a shorter barrel not a shorter handguard like the regular
G36K,so you can still make a K type just need the K barrel and flash hider.

Well aparrently Guarder picked up their GP30 (or 25...they look the same) and sold them under their name, and they'll only do that if its a quality product.
So far, STAR and King Arms are doing great things...

the GP-30 (real steel) is loaded from the front. The Star brand Airsoft replica mimics the real deal.

thats why i bought a home-made conversion aeg acx l85 and the other chap was modding his springer.
we got talking to a guy who said he could make up the foregrip used on the sa80ugl but it all turned out to be a scam of sorts.
the smokey's ag36 had come out, the other chap got it and tried it and the dimensions were all wrong - it looked like smokeys had made it by sight instead of measuring a real one. [iirc anyway..]
since the foregrip deal fell through we tried other ways. the other chap got a spare dragon arms G36 long foregrip and mounted it on his l85, and it just looked a bit wrong.
by that time we both gave up.
shortly after the airsoft club l85 became a reality, and then a time after that the academy l85 aeg production restarted..
the star project might give us some new impetus.. but a reasonably accurate-looking foregrip would still be a stumbling block..
I have to return some videotapes.

Yeah, mounting it on the L85 would be cool.

I know, I've been going for a cam15a2 rifle for a while now, even more so since I recently acquired an M870 shotgun and have alway wanted to have an m16/m870 masterkey since I first saw predator
but now...those l85s are looking damn tempting... underslung grenade launcher and a shottie as back up...manly...

For those of you think I've gone mad:
"Well I've had a word with Joe, and he says instead of making a cable and sending a signal for my TAT B's, I can do a jump into a DZ from 600-metres with an Epson printer-scanner on my back, and then tab 10 miles over undulating terrain, at night, to unlock an officer's user account after he got the password wrong three times."

as you can see in the picture, the foregrip is quite a large part of what visually makes up the sa80ugl, not just adding the star ag36 [which is about 3 times the cost of the original aeg..]
this is what myself and others were trying to achieve ever since the first few photos of the sa80ugl started popping up.

Ummm.....
Regarding fitting that to an Academy SA80, it'd sure make changing the battery interesting.

just depends on how you'd do it i guess - certainly an opportunity for more space ..perhaps..
another stumbling block was the fragility of the plastic used on the acx l85 - i think it needs some kind of reinforcing within the body to be able to take the weight of whats being added to the front.
