ECHO1

How's it going guys. There has been some recent hype about all the new JG 2008 releases going on. In turn, I was wondering if anyone had news on ECHO1 lately? I know they are a big competitor in the cloning market, and I was wondering if they had any interesting new rifles come out?

Pics, links, text, anything you got thanks

You got it. Echo 1 import shitloads of JG guns, do an extra QA check on them, rebrand them as Echo 1 and sell them off. If there's a JG gun, chances are, there's gonna be the identical gun from Echo 1 shortly thereafter.

When my boss got the news that Echo was coming out with a 249 he called his supplier and asked about its relation to the A&K 249. The guy said they were actually manufactured in the same factory. Just different brands. But hey, thats Echo for ya.

JG doesn't make an mp5k. It's a Galaxy.

I wouldn't doubt that many of the bigger Chinese brands are all manufactured in the same factory, like JG and A&K.

IIRC Well and CYMA are also in the same factory.

LOL. You got it. Well, we know for sure that the Kraken are direct rebrands of the CYMA. The 2 MP5 models and the Kirenix may or may not be direct rebrands. I haven't seen a CYMA model of the Kirenix, if one does exist.
