[Brian McIlmoyle]

is that the proliferation of PTWs is starting a "arms race"

There is nothing but a very upgraded weapon that can compete with the distance and accuracy of these things...
The stock TM as a "reasonable gaming gun" has seen its day?

It is a good thing that they are expensive and relatively rare ( though I know 3 people who have one now in a circle of about 60 players, and I expect that will double in the next month)

Frankly, I am having difficulty justifying the expense... but really I have spent enough on guns now that I could have 3 of the things...and lets not even talk about gear.

We now sneer at the Clearsoft users... "thats not real airsoft" .. thats crapsoft.... I wonder has systema raised the bar as to what is "crapsoft"

has the much vaunted supremacy of TM.. that has seen constant erosion over the past 2 years finaly heard its death knell?

IS Systema.. the "new standard" that other makers will aspire to?

I think its already so...

So for those who do not invest.. expect to be outclassed...

I can't wait until the quietly rumored SYSTEMA MP5 is a reality...
