also various sources say its released in Philippines already (they look to be the hottest source these days to get first things that other people cannot get in most cases)

they sell it for $320 USD in manila so near there it should be in HK also (when ever it lands)

God that looks awesome

ZOMG thats awesome - thank god this am teh no vaporware.

Cheers for the heads up Frontiers

I like the modern versions better, but I must admit this looks awesome.

This thread should come with a warning, time to change the pants. Must admit I will never get one, as it would end up just a wall hanger, unless I got into re-enacting....... Its a good excuse.

Trades are wrong!!!!

its a M60vn not M60E4/MK43

That thing is just so damn cool.

I'd get one if it wasn't for the fact I'd need a car just to carry it to my skirmish site. Hurray for driving lessons!


Wonder how much they'll be in the UK. You reckon the same as the other A&K M60?

almost identical very little difference in price to MK43

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.

time for a nam loadout maybe... no no no. too many guns already... but one more wont hurt... argh stop stop stop!!!............my precious...

...you are kidding right? There is no official "M60VN" designation for the M60 GPMG. It was first known as the T161 prior to being designated as the M60 in 1957, and subsequent models (updated models with various improvements) had designations of M60E1, E2, E3, E4 (E4 is essentially the Mk43 Mod 0/1) and of course the M60 B, C and D models, mounted mostly to vehicles.

pistol grip is wrong but never mind as long as its a reasonable price il still have one

I never knew the official designation for the VN model, but read the pic, it says M60E4 (its not the modern version, its vietnam)

Yup Chownsys right, its not an E4, theyve got it wrong

Edit: actually, Col Psycho you kind of proved it yourself with that list of models?

That looks amazing! I assume it doesnt come with the bullet belt though

never seen here

Awesome news mate!

Pretty much. I wasnt trying to say the A&K designation on that M60 was right, (although i'll go back and edit the previous post to include this) but rather what I was trying to say was that there is no "M60VN" designation.

edit: I cannot edit the previous post, lol.

Cant wait for this!

Great news Frontiers

nice...but wheres my affordable MG42?

If that comes out any time soon I may need to sell the kids. Too many nice support guns coming out in such a short space of time.

I'm with you!

Just splashed £300 on an ANGS upgraded TOP M60 VN Shorty.

Now this comes out. Face palm doesn't quite cover it....

Hawt damn, So oldskool! just gotta get one just because.

If the MG42 comes out before Christmas in the UK it will make my year. In 2009 Chinese companies will have given us 3 of the most eagerly awaited affordable guns:

MP44
M60
MG42

I hope Santa's raindeers have been working out this year as thier sliegh may be laden down with airsoft goodies

Mine as soon as someone has it in stock and avail to ship to USA.

Oh my. This is where the lack of a support weapon in my collection gets rectified! SAT CONG!

Looks great but i will pass, Vietnam isnt my thing!
Now if A&K were to release a L7A2 GPMG i would buy it ASAP!!

Al

I presume it uses the same A&K gearbox as the m249? Auto only?

It would be kind of weird to have select fire M60.

Plz post a link when its on the usual shops

This, oooh sooo this!

keep your modern wet dreams outta ours.

time for namsoft to really take off with a reliable M60 now out!

More like the A&K gearbox as their other M60. lol

(Which btw is not like the M249 gearbox either)

The reason he's asking is because it would have to be fixed to semi auto to buy one in New Zealand, so it doesn't actually mater that its different from the 249, as iirc its the same in the fact it can't be made to fire in semi automatic at all never mind permanently.

Modern?
The FN MAG came to production in 58, one year after the M60.

Nice looking M60, sorta got my juices flowing and there`s not many airsoft guns which have done that recently

Actualy i beleave it can be done electronicly and not break the bank.

Will admit, do want!

more pictures of the M60VN, thank our Filippino(hope i spelled it right ) Brothers, i'm just spreading it for the wider audience

Ah damn, cheers.

Yeah electronically does work but NZ customs are still iffy with it, so its pretty much easier not to..may have to try and convince them if the M60 is cheap enough tho

Thanks Frontiers.
Dropping you a PM by the way...

good gravy a m60 nam styley for £250 ish, thats....... thats........ words fail me.

i guess it will be a simular weight to the inokatsu, i'm not a small bloke but i had trouble holding it in the aim for more than a few seconds. not a gat for people with bad backs!

I'm going to wait for a few scrawny teens to buy these, realise they can hardly carry them and then sell them on cheap.

Damn, now I've gotta make a choice between this or an MG36.

GET SOME!!! GET SOME!!!!

You sir are a star! Lol. I remember the rush on M249's when A&K brought those out and a little while later people started dumping them as they were too heavy for a full days airsoft.

When you consider an MP5 can have easily the same rof and range as a support gun, there is little going for a gun like an M60 in airsoft other than it looks amazing. Try running and gunning with one...

Still want though!

*I'm a LEAD farma muthaf*****

You do know that Echo1 is bringing out an M240?

http://everything-airsoft.com/blog/2009/08...ive-sneak-peak/

i believe its the trigger happy version, not cheap model not Chinese made

Nope, all new China made, and it's supposed to be around $450 to $500 USD retail.

John Rambo here i come
