Any Bizz About New Guns Coming Out Soon?

[VasilitheSniper]

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone has heard about any new guns coming out anytime soon? I'd also like to know if anyone has heard if someones going to bring out a AEG of the British L85A1/A2 ?

[Grease Man]

TM G18C AEP
TM M4 SIR
CA36


Theres a bunch of other custom AEGs, gas guns, and conversion kits coming out. I'm sure somone else will chime in with more.

[GeneralPatton]

the TM M4 SIR is gonna have trouble with retailers in the U.S most likley dealing with Gov't issues.

CA36 looks pretty hot .. maybe shouldve waited on my G36.

Not sure what a G18 is.


Vas..I know of a site that had tons of upcoming guns from Tokyo Marui and other manufactures but I never added it to my favorites..i'll search around and try to see if i could find it.

What problems would the M4sir have? The M4RIS doesnt have any more issues than any other AEG when it comes to getting into the country.

[GeneralPatton]

Heres a few pics from Renegade Recon:





and from UNCompany ::




That's all I know of .. I know there are a lot of other guns too coming out .. shotguns and a lot of pistols .. don't know the names though.


Sp00n, I remember I read it somewhere and a little finding, I found where I heard that from. I hope I didn't read it wrong but i doubt i did .. it was from Darkstar a whiles back..

Due to certain copyright and trade dress laws in the US, it is doubtful the S-System M4 will be available to the US Market. The company who makes the real SIR rail that is on the Tokyo Marui rifle has already been sending out letters to retailers in the United States, stating that they will sue if anyone sells the replicas of the SIR rail system. So far, they have directly targeted ICS.

In light of getting sued, I doubt many retailers will carry the S-System rifles, but keep posted, things are still not all hammered out.

So I take it no one has heard of a AEG for the L85-A1/A2? If so it's a shame that they don't make one.

[Slacker]

Why am I not hearing TM M14?

[VasilitheSniper]

That would be a good one or even a Mini 14 would be nice!

G18 AEP= G18 Automatic Electric Pistol.

[VasilitheSniper]

That's pretty cool! I just wish it wasn't a limited run on them. By the time i had the $350 plus the shipping they'd be gone more than likely.

[VasilitheSniper]

I really wish TM or someone else would mass produce the L85-A1/A2 in the AEG so the price would be a little lower.

[GeneralPatton]

Well if you think about it, $350 ain't bad. Does that one come with the full metal cuz I know one version of that is metal? ..unless thats the $700 one. If it is $350, then thats a deal since most Marui plastic ones base around $230.

[VasilitheSniper]

You do have a point!

Because it's never been 100% confirmed.


Also, the SIR will have problems because unlike the RIS, the SIR is a patten of a single company - thus when a US retailer tries to sell them, they can get sued.

[Tripod]

I highly doubt that could hold up in court. Not a lawyer or anything but from my understanding, as long as the design is slightly different then you can't say they're stealing your patents. They are calling it the "S-System" rather than SIR, so i dont see any problems there either.

[Fox]

Maybe DarkStar or Locutus could clear this up. Apparently the makers of the SIR system are sending letters out to US retailers warning them that if they stock/carry this m4 - that they will sue.


I dunno, but thats what I was told.

[GeneralPatton]

well as i said .. the quote above was quoted from Darkstar but I too would like to know more. Maybe the design isn't different at all?

unless this is just a rumor, or not yet in production, i dont see why you couldn't buy this weapon, whether is TM or not i dont know.

The new Marui S-System will likely be unreleasable in the United States as ARMS, Inc owns the patent for their SIR rail system for real M4 rifles. They have already sent out documents to us and other US retailers detailing their plans to sue based on sale of the ICS SIR rail system and the replica of the ARMS flip up sight. I would surmise that they would threaten to do the same once the Marui S-System is release because the S-System appears to be identical to the ARMS SIR, at least at first glance. While I have yet to contact ARMS regarding the Marui S-System rifle, I doubt that Marui has a license to violate ARMS, Inc's trade dress.

And with the new trade dress laws that are now on the books, I think ARMS will have a strong case against anyone who imports this gun.

I hope I've shed some light on the this subject!

Darkstar out.

[CoOk!3 6()|)]

would you be able to order it from over seas then?

[Lt. Corbin]

What about Colt, HK, Sig Sauer etc. Does TM have a license from all those companys? They would have to, so whats the big deal about getting a license from ARMS?

[Darkstar]

In meetings I've have with industry higher-ups, I was told that Tokyo Marui does have licenses to produce replica guns in Japan ONLY, and those licenses include exclusive agreements from the respective firearms manufacturers of the replicas Marui makes. Products that are exported from Japan are excluded from those trademark agreements and there have been some companies who've gotten upset with Marui as to the export of their products. This is one of the reasons Marui does not with to recognize the US market, because if they did, Colt and other companies would get even madder at them. Colt and other real firearms manufacturers don't want replica firearms in a country in which it is legal to own real firearms (at least thats the buzz I've been hearing). Its just the way they work I guess.

The only way Marui gets around export is that they sell to a distributor, who then can ship anywhere they want. Marui can say "Whaaa?? They're shipping our guns to other countries??? Oh No!!!", and then do nothing. (Okay, bad representation of what they might say, but I'm trying).

Fact is, they do have the licenses. I have personally heard it from the translator of one of largest airsoft companies in the industry.

Darkstar out.

[VasilitheSniper]

If Colt,H&K,and others would get pissed off then why don't they get into the airsoft buisness themselves if they're so conserend about it? I'm sure if they did there would be room in the market for them. I know their guns would be more than what TM and others sell theirs for but wouldn't that be better than Colt and company suing?

[Tripod]

ArmaLite tried. CA screwed them over from my understanding.
