TM Boys guns
 
The M4 and Mp5 are already out, but does anyone know when the rest of the boys line is coming out?(such as the L85 or Ak)

hmm smells like this will be trashed.

Read and you'll discover that the community hates this kind of softair guns that shoots no farther than a guy can spit.

save a bit and buy a real airsoft gun

yeah, and you can legally buy a gun... so yeah just do as ^Hyperion^ said.

Whats the point of flaming? The guy just wants to know when the rest come out (I wouldnt mind seeing the new ones either).

Cheers,
Alex

Are we sure that TM's making a Boys L85, not a full sized one? Seems like all the Boys are based on existing TM full sized AEGs. Can't imagine a particularly big market for a Boys L85.

Though at this point, the only reason a full sized TM L85 would be more preferable to Star's would be the lack of need to downgrade to meet 1J restrictions in certain countries.

The boys guns are really fun… in the hands of boys.

I gave an M4 Boys Version to my 9 year old the Christmas before last - for basement plinking under strict supervision. The kids see Dad’s airsoft stuff and want to emulate. This way he can shoot cans and stuff and he feels like he is playing. We pull it out when his nephews are over for shits and giggles. It works great. As long as everyone is wearing safety glasses, there is no concern of getting hurt in an accident. (180 FPS with 0.12’s)

The truth is at 11 he is kind of out growing it…
Here's a pic of my son's M4 Boy's.

it's pretty cool, but not really for adult play...

Owner, the boy's line of airsoft rifles is really a waste of time - spin up google and run a seach, I'm sure you will find a plethora (oo, havnt used that word in awhile...) of reviews expousing the lack of "bang for your buck".

They are Marui, so build quality is of course good - however they are not designed for serious gameplay in mind. Prices on full sized AEG's are the lowest they have been in years, so affording a good solid AEG should not be a problem, assuming your 18+.

Might I suggest you visit the FAQ section, and enter "airsoft" into Wikipedia, loads of info I'm sure you'll have a good time reading. Good luck!

Yes, the most recent Marui inserts in their product boxes has a greyed-out L85 under the boy's lineup. I do agree with you I don't see much of a market for a boy's L85, as the potential customers don't have alot of exposure to them at that age.

With tons of movies flashing G36's (K's mostly...) at the viewer, I would have thought Marui would come out with a boys model of that family. Almost seems like Marui is teasing it's core userbase by giving us a L85 that we won't touch with a 10 foot pole.

I suppose time will tell in regards to whether this is a fatal mistake on Marui's part, if STAR has success with their L85 family of AEG's.

I didn't know they were making a boys P90 and AK beta spetz.

The question that came to mind when I first saw that picture was where did they find 2 white kids in Japan?

My guess is that it must have something to do with Aqua, artifical insemination, and a machine that makes kids grow super fast.
