Just saw this.

Don't really care about the AK, but the MEU looks awsome.

[KNIVEZS]

i like the new AKS 74U

[Uzi9mm]

I want it!

[ProbeJax]

I had no idea they were even making any more AKs. I've been waiting for them to release a non drab plastic mold of the MEU. Now I want a release date.

i like that Px4 storm. i hope its a blowback. too bad KSC didn't make one. still, i would love one.

Five-seveN is nice, but as he says in the article at one point: "something similar". I guess after TM had a year pushing the AEP (mac10 and scorpion released), and the new AK47MN, and some other new releases, TM will be back to the drawing board with more "interesting" concepts.

Usually i like seeing new TM releases because they are new designs and new models. This is just a passing glance for me: nice to see they are there, but nothing new to catch my eye.

I hope that MEU is gas and not an EBB...single stack Hi-Capa ftw.

[tycho]

hmm - I will definitely be checking out the five seven when they release it :>

[Dracheous]

Hmmm, that MEU gives me hope that it may fit safarilands or possibly SERPA's with no modification by the looks of the slide. Anyone else care to hazard a guess on this?

[skalnok]

defintiely waiting on the Px4 storm..... i feel kinda like a giddy school girl lol

[Gryphon]

*yawn*

People still buy TMs? I guess if you like overpriced and underpowered...

[ProbeJax]

I'm actually surprised people are buying Chinasoft, especially here. But it's happening, so that makes me a relic.

FiveSeveN looks like crap is that color...good thing it isnt final copy. I actually like FiveSeveN the way it is if its Matt Black

Chinese AEGs are demonstrating themselves to be on-par with most HK and Japanese manufactured brands, with more upgrades out of the box, for half the cost. Why does this surprise you?

For the money I save buying a Chinese clone that's indistinguishable from a TM, I can replace anything that eventually breaks on it and still be ahead over buying a stock TM. Also TM is so sluggish with getting any new idea to market that by the time they have a working model of something, Chinese companies have them on store shelves.

The big name manufacturers' days are numbered and they know it. Just look at the prices at www.gunnerairsoft.com for proof (and he's MAKING money at those prices).

Yeah, but the Chinese needs something to clone first. New TM guns means new clones in the long run, if that's what floats one's boat.
