Do want.

for the money I do want to get one and try it out....though the pistol being what it is I am wary as to what the blaze orange tip treatment will be like....more just intrigue by how TM did to the gun than actually being a fan of the 5-7....

The good thing about this pistol is that the "real-steel" (or rather the "real-polymer") version beign made of 100% polymer (except for internal parts, of course), there won't be a need for those costly Full Metal Upgrades.

And for once, the actual caliber of the handgun is close to the diameter of a BB, so closer ressemblance.

Also for Realcap loads this pistol carries 20 rounds ... so pretty decent ammo capacity.

Taiwanese site initial openbox impression, vs real one...

If you can't read Chinese, the highlights are:
-TM version feels more toy-plasticky, more so than Marushin.
-RS mag can't fit in the TM
-TM is lighter than RS
-trigger pull is shorter/lighter than RS

btw I am not sure as to how the poster has a RS 5-7....not knowing where he/she is based and have already gotten hold of the TM gun...

"230.0 fps"

Probably on HFC134a, but still.....ewww....

Yeah 230 on hfc134a.. Not too great lol. I mean you could slap a tightbore in there to boost it up a bit. But still..
Nonetheless, do want very badly.

Redwolf jumps around with how they test the gun's FPS, they sometimes uses "Top Gas/Green Gas" and sometimes uses hfc134a...not very consistent....

The power seems to be on par for the most part with most TM though...

must have....

I'm going to get one and break it.

230 on hfc134a? I was under the impression that all TM pistols were propane ready? Why test with hfc134a? I'd love to have a FiveSeveN, especially a TM, but if it's only 230 and only hfc134a then I'll have to pass. That's too weak to field and hfc134a is a bit of a pain to get these days.

All tm pistols are designed for hfc134a becuase propane is over the legal FPS in japan.

That being said, most TM guns can handle propane well, i have been using propane in my high-capa, works perfectly

Yeah unless they add the stupid overfill valve that they had on the MK23 mags (an easy fix anyways) then it will be propane ready. And as theguy said, all of their guns handle propane just fine.

Hope my Marushin Five seveN doesn't catch me looking at this...with a pillow in my lap to hide my lust...
