Every clone that China makes, they always try and get half of what they area cloning. I might try and get this one. China seems to be improving at a fast rate.

We already got a poblem in Sweden with to many supportweapons and this anit going to help. The quality have to better than the past guns from China if this gun is going to worry good.

Damn man.. I've been looking forward to this, but still out of my price range. Half that price, then i might be able to afford it.

Btw, how do you know that?

You know this how?

I doubt it's based on the STAR M249 - notice the M16 hicap in the gun.

Agreed. However, it still may have a plastic gearbox, in which case CA still wins. I'll still take the CA full metal over an ABS one though, these guns get lent out alot, and are abused alot too due to their size.

Lent out? Abused? We're talking about personal use right? Not rentals?
I guess I can kinda see where you're coming from..

Its not an AWP. There is no such thing as an AWP. It was a typo on counterstrike IIRC.

Hope its good, although i just bought an AICS so i dont really need a sniper rifle anymore....

lol. i will laugh my arse off when somebody tries to make their clone M249 perform on a par with a CA249. can anybody say "gearbox soup" ? i was waiting for this time when somebody was going to make a clone 249. pretty soon skirmishes are gonna be wank. everybody will turn up with a minimi, and it'll just be totally pants.

am i jealous ?

in a way yeah. i paid a whole wad of cash to have something spectacular that makes people go 'wow' and also '*beep* dont shoot me'. now all i'll get it "yeah my minimi was 35 pence, AND its as good as your ca249" rolleyes.gif

I wouldn't call it a typo. They had to call it a different name due to copyright infringement etc. They had to do that with basically all of the weapons.

The M249 could not be based on the STAR M249, look, theres a STANAG hicap like Darklite Said. Its probably based off the CA except its made out of plastic not metal.
Oh and the block holding the barrel and the front sight is black, while STAR's is white.

Most Chinese companies seem to copy off either TM or CA anyway, so it would make sense if it was copied off the CA.
