[ GB-Tech KSC Mac11 Metal Body ]

Sept 28, 2001

This is the new GB-Tech Mac11 Metal Body for the KSC Mac11. The GB-Tech metal body kit comes with an aluminum upper reciever, full metal bolt and rocket valve, and a steel spring guide. If I can get my hands on one of these I will write up a review for you guys, so far there are no internet retailers are selling this awesome kit.

New KSC Glock 19
This is KSC's newest release, the Glock 19. The Glock 19 is almost exactly like a glock 17 except shorter. With the success of the Glock18C, KSC has redesigned the Glock 19 fixing most of the faults in the earlier Glock 17. Very sheek.

Here are two of the latest custom guns from First's Factory, the Dark Knights SR-16 and the Hard System P90. These guns are fully customed and upgraded by the gunsmiths at First's which reflects in the price. The guns are a bit pricey but so is everything else from First's Factory as the quality of their guns and upgrade parts are up there with Systema.

This is a new extension for the Glock 26/27 called Gobrin, it is made by a Japanese company called Posiedon who are famous for their model guns, sorry i made a mistake earlier. The Gorbrin extends the Glock 26/27 and adds two weaver rails for mounting holosights, red dots and tactical lights. One rail is on the top and the other is on the bottom, this mount also features full metal contruction and it truly makes the Glock 26/27 a more unique looking gun.

This is the new KSC STI Titan, its performance and esthetics are compareable to the Western Arms Infinity Series. The STI Titan is favoured over the Infinities by many IPSC shooters as its performance is truly spectacular. The KSC STI Titan has a metal lower reciever just like the WA one, built material is high quality ABS. The STI Titan is very similar to the Infinity, visually they are almost exactly the same. If i get a hold of one of these I will write a review and compare it with the WA Infinity.

Ok I promised some guys that I would post a better pic of the Takara LAPD Swat Doll so here it is. These dolls are extremely realistic but they are not yet available in North America, though I think you should see them for sale in Hong Kong shortly.

This is the new Takara SWAT model, this model is the LAPD Swat Team. It comes with fully customizable weapons and equipement. The MP5 that comes with the model can be changed into a A2, SD and Navy version, the model comes with enough parts to make every version of the mp5. These bad boys go for around 4,750 yen which is about $65 cdn.

This is a custom G36 built in Japan, the gun looks very impressive. My bet is that Tokyo Marui will release a G36 very soon as there are custom G36 kits for the Mp5K out already, I believe Airsoft Dynamics has a custom G36C for sale but it is going for an incredible price. Those of you wanting to get a hold of a G36 should save up and be patient as I am told the TM G36 will be released shortly.

This is the FN F2000 with an integrated grenade launcher. This gun only excists in the real steel world but I think there will be an airsoft version of the F2000 out in the near future. The gun has a built in scope ,laser targeting system and a grenade launcher. Looks like a sci fi gun but it is very similar to the OICW that is to be adopted by the US Army. These types of weapons are extremely effective and perfect for picking out enemy soldiers and vehicles.

[ KJ Works Glock 27 Review ]

Sept 4, 2001

Just picked up my new KJ Works Metal Glock 27 from Evolution Airsoft yesterday. The KJ Works Glock 27 is almost completely identical to the Tokyo Marui Glock 26 while costing a fraction of the price. I am very impressed with the looks and performance of this compact pistol.

[ Sun Project M40A1 Review ]

Sept 3, 2001

This is the Sun Project M40A1, it is the United States Marine Corps. standard issue sniper rifle. It fires the 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Win) round and has an effective range of 1000 (915m). The M40A1 has to be the pioneer of the modern sniper rifle. The USMC has always had a leg up on the US Army when it comes to sniping and the USMC realized that they needed a standard sniper rifle that could perform the job up to standard. After testing and reviews the USMC placed the initial order for 700 Remington 700/M40 sniper rifles in 1966.

Classic Army M4 Metal Reciever 2nd Version
When M4 users look for metal bodies for their guns, they usually think Systema. While Systema’s Release is a competent one, there’s now another option; the Classic Army release II M4 metal body. While Classic Army has produced many great products in the past, their first release of the M4 metal body was complete crap. The fittings were horrible and a lot of people had problems installing them.
