Anything CA makes is a blessing. If someone else makes it beside TM, then in my head TM doesn't make it at all. With plastic bodies and virtually no extra accesories or upgrades out of the, I'd say TM averages about 4/10's of a gun when they produce some thing.

I was considering a G3 for a while. Now I think I may actually get it as I won't like a fool spending over double the price in upgrades.

Nice that they are expanding their product line, but nothing original at all. If they had come out with a Beretta Cx4 Storm, an FN FAL variant, FN 2000, FN SCAR, Chinese QBZ-95, SAR-21...... I could go on...

An affordable MG 42? SKS? A basic AEG uzi made of stamped steel? RPK out of the box? Electric M3 shotgun !!

Eat your muffins while they last!!

TM is also limited in the metal they can put on a gun by Japanese law.

Then they could at least add some better internal materials....

Swear that's an urban legend put out by TM itself. :rolleyes:

I've heard that as well with Marui, yet Z-Shot/Systema is based out of Japan. I assure you that they put ample metal into their guns, body especially. It could also be that injection-molded plastic is cheaper, easier to produce, and gives more consistant results than cast zinc-alloy.

Rumpel Felt February 22nd, 2006 00:32

True or not, there is no way I'm backing a company that puts out a plastic gun that costs almost as much as a full metal one with upgrades. Yet people still think TM is the "smart" way to buy....? I think CA making what is a complete gun to me original enough. Lets hope they make some Sig's and mabey even get into the GBB market next.

mcguyver February 22nd, 2006 00:52

Perhaps C.A. should make a UMP. The G&G one is iffy at best and the Star one is, well, not here. I personally am a fan of full metal and any internal issues are no problem for me to solve, but the appeal of Marui is in the diversity and availability. I bought and AUG, an AK and a G36 because noboby else made them then. Now, it's a different story.

Many guys say that Marui is the ONLY way to go as they are guaranteed reliable and to work out of the box. I'm afraid that just isn't so. Marui knows this as well. For a long time, we saw no new models from them. And why should they spend $$$ in R&D when they "owned" the airsoft market. Other manufacturers are making good products that are price competitive with better features. But only Marui can release 10 new guns in just over a year.

Don't get me wrong, Marui does in fact make a good product. But their products fail with consistancy that is, in some cases, due to our usage styles in Canada and due to cheap parts as well.

I would by a Marui again, if they had a gun that nobody else had. But today with the plethora of HK and Armalite's made by everyone and companies like C.A. and Star coming out with models even Marui doesn't have, it doesn't make much sense to stick only to Marui.

It' like the old farmer saying "I'm only buyin' Ford's. I won't touch those Chevy's or Dodge's.", even if Ford only made a bicycle. Doesn't make any sense at all.

My plans to build a full metal MSG-90A1 are on the fast track again. Yay for CA.

Aw man... If they came out with their own 55x series, metal out of the box... 8)
