Looks nice. They put spelling mistakes on the warning sticker. 'ablepsia'?

There's more pics in the link but here's one.

already? thats fast...but i find the AK ugly so i won't buy it....i hope they make an M4

sam0182 · October 9th, 2005, 23:15

looks good!

sam0182 · October 9th, 2005, 23:17

For the M4A1 - coming from WELL but out of the same manufac shops as UTG...to retail in the usa around $100-120usd - comes with bat, charger, full metal gear box...out of the box 330fps.

Should be released stateside late November.

Anybody else notice the cutout in the styrofoam? It looks like the AK is suppose to come with a pistol or something. :?

sam0182 · October 9th, 2005, 23:29

Any tips on what sort of translator to use for http://www.kocashop.com/ ???

Ya, my cyma shotgun had the exact same pistol cutout...

Cheers,
Alex

It's just a cheap box.

They should've came up with AK74 body instead of 47.

Is it me or all those crappy companies started to make AEGs that could possibly be not too bad?

Dozer_01 · October 10th, 2005, 01:23

If this brand is compatible with TM, systema etc, this could very well be a good buy. At the US price, i would expected it to be around $300 CDN or so. That alone is quite appealing.

$300 CAD for a gun that sells for $100 USD is not a good buy. Yeah yeah I've heard all the excuses about licensing, taxes, duty, etc. However go to http://www.xe.com and look at what our dollar's worth these days. $200 CAD and now we're talkin!

Not the most universally understood terminology but it is (surprisingly enough) quite correct.

ablepsia
n. blindness. ableptic, a.

That seems to be the case. I still wouldn't want one as my primary AEG, but for collectors and players on budgets, this could be awesome. This could possibly provide enough competition for TM to kick up the game, but it's still pretty unlikely.

Aside from the sticker and the slight gaps in the build...

It looks f'ckin... exactly like a TM ak-47.... externally anyways.

How closely can you possibly copy something?

Maybe TM gave up the old blueprints or something.

"here, you can have them, we've got some sure-fire market stealers coming out next month anyways"

_oh hey, and I just had a thought...

UTG would be producing AK-47 magazines then, right? Compatible with TM?

Any Lowcap buffs might be interested in buying them up if they're cheaper than Marui magazines...

Heh If the price is right I might just get one. Will wait till someone else reports on the mechbox stats before making any big decisions.
