Airsoft Eu has some interesting pics of the Type 97 rifle bieng broken down, looks pretty well made, if you can get past the looks (not really a fan) but good pics anyway.

Remains to be seen on the internals and all that jazz though.

O god yes!!! THAT GEARBOX IS AWESOME! It's like a dream come true

So many possibilities... now I need another P90 body...

[Crazy_Harry]

wow. It'd be great if these guys hit the ground running with their QC. its a genuine pleasure to see some absolute outsider guns coming out.

I'm all about the sniper version, too. That thing is the shizzle.

Wild gearbox layout!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I think it'll be pretty good, if they are any decent real steel manufactures then their QC and tolerances should be at least better than the cloners.

EDIT: spelling

Reckon a large size battery would fit in that foregrip?

[WildCard]

Anybody know if the gearbox will be released as a stand alone product?

[flec]

I guess the trigger is the switch for the gearbox, great for custom guns.

[Tinkerton]

oh thats hot. i'm so getting one when they come out. M16 mag compatible, bullpup, decent build quality, accurate to real steel (probably) inventive and clever gearbox? its everything i've been looking for.


...now, to get a second gearbox and see if it fits in my SVD....

[Murph]

Okay... I know I'll get flamed for this one, but does anyone else think those pictures look a little too computer generated?

[someonetookmyname]

did anyone notice that hteyre AK (type 56 or whatever) variant also uses a different gearbox than the regular v3? at least supposedly >_<

GAH!

[T.P.Evan]

I wonder how compatable the gearbox is with current parts on the market...or if anybody will be realeasing parts for the new mechbox design?

[TheAverageAsian]

Umm Murph, those pics where form an outside source called Target (its a tawainese airsoft magazine. However possible, it is unlikely it would be a computer render, they look too real...

[Naked Singularity]

Very promising indeed! I might get one if the quality is good, the price is reasonable, and the chance of it getting "inspected" (raped) by U.S. Customs is small.

[Munitions Man]

Im just wondering where the battery goes. What type it is. Still very nice guns.

[Tinkerton]

probably a mini battery in the foregrip or above the mechbox. possibly a stick in the same place as the MP5K or AKS.

[The_Boy_Swift]

Might fit in the SVD body....the nozzle looks about the right height (although it is in a strange postion, I wonder what the tappet plate will be like and if spares will be available). Trigger might be a problem but it's definitely doable...

Problem is, I'd burn/eat/throw the rest of the gun away unless they sold the gearbox seperately. Bit of a waste.

[olbertus]

Yeah, it does look high quality, I hope those Chinese AK variants are similarly good, or that short version (really prefer the looks of that over the fullsize). That sniper version is interesting too. It would be nice to have a good quality Chinese manufacturer then hopefully more will appear

[Robot 2000]

Oh wow. BF2 here I come when this beauty gets released.
