QFT.

Just another vanilla AEG that fails to bring anything new to the table.

WE should focus on improving/refining their GBBRs since they actually have a chance at getting a solid foothold in that niche, if they could only address issues like easily broken parts etc.

Meh to me, they just want more money.

Not much money into R&D and more people buying AEGs than GBBR is probably going to give them a fair share of money.

I wish they used that time and money to release their Thompson though.

what did you expect?

WE externals are quite good.. and they make robust guns..

Frankly this is very likely an alliance with an established AEG producer . We will produce bodies .. and someone else will produce mechboxes rebranded to WE

WE has pretty much cornered the market on GBBRs , I could see why an AEG maker would want to plop their Mechboxes into a We branded product, just from a branding standpoint.

this is MARKETING gentlemen .. not technical innovation

Oh I wasn't expecting anything! I really don't care about them making aegs lol, it's just that people are complaining about it. Why would it be good, why would it be bad? People are already complaining but nobody knows what brand will make the internals lol.

I'm actually a bit perplexed by WE's choice for lineups, specially considering they have all the parts already in production to put out many more (and better) variants than they currently do.

The PMC AK is a good example: as the only offering for a fullsize AK it's not the best choice and they obviously have the side folder receiver for the AKSU; offering an AKS-74/M alongside the PMC seemed like a no-brainer that would have probably gotten way more AK enthusiasts excited about WE AKs.

Thus far, that hasn't happened.

Similarly, that PMC AK comes with a Crane -style stock so you'd think they'd put out an NSW-kosher CQB-R and/or M4 (swap out the carry handle for an LMT rear sight or something to keep it interesting). But nope. 11.5" barrel from the XM177 could make a Colt M933. Not on the menu either.

Sure it's just mix and matching parts to create a plethora of variants, but that's pretty much standard fare by now from all other manufacturers and it saves having to buy a gun only to swap out 50% of the parts for aftermarket stuff (which strangely is still lacking for WE GBBRs -- you'd think their explosion in popularity would have more than just RA-Tech and TSC making a limited number of parts. Good thing the WE accept so many AEG and RS parts/accessories.)

Honestly, I really don'tt know what to expect form WE, giving it's their first AEG! It took a lot of time for companies like king arms and G&P to get known and good in the AEG market!

IMO, they should have stayed with the GBBR market, they're know there and the should perfect their own guns before going into, frankly, a market the don't even know and, from James Chan's own words, they chose to ignore!!!

Yep, totally agree with that! Why would I buy yet another AEG M4! Unless it's different, why bother?!! If it is, then, IMO, they won't sell a lot and will go back to the GBB market!

My 2 cents!
