Heute gibts es wieder mal eines zum Besten von RR. *************News number 5************Here are the this week?s Email Updates from RR. Main focus is on Magpul?s Ranger airsoft magazines. See the end of the email for quick updates on TOP MP40 and KTW M1903A3.Magpul PTS Ranger Pull M4/M16 magazine impressionsThe Magpul PTS Ranger Pull mags have already landed in Japan apparently ahead of US release schedule and we had chance to inspect them briefly the other day. This magazine is made by Magpul to fit standard AEGs and this itself is an interesting, if not groundbreaking, development among equipment makers in US.So how does the first airsoft simulation mag look like? The main frame of the magazine and the top cover is almost same as in Marui magazines with difference being the industrial grade, anti-scratch coating. This coating is said to be much stronger than standard airsoft magazine paint treatments. The color and external appearance of the magazine are almost identical with Marui ones. Below the centerline and just on top of the magazine bottom plate there is red-colored Magpul PTS marking. The focal point of this magazine is the ?Ranger plate? that is located at the bottom side of the magazine. Ranger plate works essentially as integral Magpul unit and allows quick draw of magazine from its storage position in personal equipment.The ?Ranger plate? is well made and looks cool to be honest. Not only it looks cool, but the integral Magpul does make things convenient and faster without need to hassle with the position of the separate, traditional Magpuls. It also serves as a buffer against damage that could be caused when the empty magazine is dropped to the ground.The only negative impression was the price. At 6,000+ Yen this magazine is pricey to be packed in serious numbers, but if early indications are anything to go by they should be available in reasonable price in US where it is manufactured (you can pre-order the magazine from Airsoft Arms). The lack of hi-capacity variant might hinder its sales in Japan and among general airsofters, but that will be soon found out. The PTS stands for Professional Training and Simulation division, which could be also read as more Magpul products to airsofters.Ammo capacity is standard 68. Color black.TOP MP40 newsWhile we all wait for the release some interesting news have surfaced about TOP MP40. The gearbox is fit inside in neat tubular type case with motor positioned sideways (!) under it. Muzzle velocity is reported to be averaging at 85m/s with Marui 0.20g BBs.KTW M1903A3Often erroneously reported to been already released this rifle is still under development at KTW and is scheduled, according to Japanese retailers, to be released within March. Expect highly realistic, but expensive airsoft rifle well in excess of $1000 USD.

Und wieder gibts was Neues von RR**** Vol. 6 contents ****1. Tokyo Marui M14 unveiled. We were there ? first impressions.
2. TOP MP40 first impressions
3. Marui Sig Sauer P226 Rail first impressions
4. What happened to the G18C review?
5. Win free S-System AEG**** Tokyo Marui M14 unveiled. We were there. ****Tokyo Marui had the much-awaited M14 electric gun finally on display at this weekend?s Gekishin fair in Japan. Shielded by plexiglass, probably to protect it from over excited players, it looked liked a finished version. Tokyo Marui reps did confirm that it will be released this summer, but they would not go into details about what will be the pricing and whether or not it will come in three versions (Olive Drab, Black and Wood stock). This unveiling was a subdued one compared to the other releases and normally this kind of event would not be the place to display their major release. Did G&G M14 release have a effect? That is unknown because it still haven't been sighted here besides few individual auctions. Going to the important part what the photos of Marui M14 can?t show is the actual finish of the gun and this was something of small surprise.Having played with Marui and other electric guns for so many years almost to the point of exhaustion one tends to quickly notice the model specific features, specific patterns of each series has and any new/old materials. The photos that will soon spread around the Internet show the general look, but close examination live does in fact reveal the M14's overall plastic look. This is the typical downside for serious players, but actually only few parts of the rifle are plastic (stock and upper front assembly, everything else is metal). What is a major reason for the plastic look is the ?wood stock? that is typical Marui wood replica as seen in AK series and Thompson M1A1. The M14 wood stock appears to be of good quality with sharp finish, but easily recognizable as plastic and not so believable as in AK and Thompson series ? perhaps because the M14 stock is that much larger. The plastic build will not be such a downside in a black and OD versions, but it was obvious in this woo
d stock version. The plastic stock makes it look obviously like a toy gun, which it is of course. This should not be taken purely as negative observation BECAUSE real wood stock would jack the price of the gun at least twice higher since they are that expensive to make. The use of plastic allows Marui to make an affordable base gun. If I would be a betting man I would put wager for a real wood stock to appear around release time as a aftermarket part for those players who demand more real gun feel with wallets to match.M14 is a rifle of old era and thus quite long. The weight balance will most likely be even as possible because so many of the expected users are young and might not be able to carry heavy and unbalanced rifle (this is fairly common issue with makers considering the majority of typical airsoft users!). The butt plate, trigger assembly, magazine and receiver are metal, but since the stock is plastic the overall weight should probably stay significantly lower than the real rifle.Overall the first impression, gazing from behind that protective glass, was of plastic appearance and more so than expected or guessed. There might be some changes between now to the release date, but all points to Marui M14 being a platform gun for custom work when it comes to serious players and MilSimmers. What new features the mechanism contains, how solid the build is and what will be the selling price will all be critical information when the gun will be finally available.

Also displayed was the Marui G18C Weapon System that was reported here for the first time: http://www.renegaderecon.com/recon_details.php?id=491*** What happened to the G18C review? ****First things first, it should been already on the site, but it has been caught in the constraints of time and equipment. But nobody here forgot it?!! LayLax finally released the NineBall Hexlobe Driver.4 (1,200 Yen, check your retailers) for the mechabox so we can now complete the final part of the review that concerns about the gearbox (without prying the gearbox open with DIY techniques...).

**** TOP MP40 AEG out ? believe it or not! ****TOP did it? they released the MP40 just a week ago and it is intriguing electric gun being a first TOP AEG that is not a LMG. I have been playing with one and my first impression is that it is a Maruish electric gun (not a typo, Maruish indeed), which can be a compliment if you wish. It has that mass production AEG feel which is good, but I?ve had the pleasure to handle realistic MP40s before and there is distinctive difference in weight balance. The gun is all metal except for the frame group side plate. The metal in certain areas like receiver and magazine housing is thin and Maruish in comparison with the real steel, which might have been done to comply with ASGK regulations and to avoid any problems. Weight balance, frame solidness and functions are generally very good, but there is a minor complaint about the awkward battery positioning that takes some time to get in right position for the receiver to `lock` back in position (battery is positioned behind the gearbox and the wires are hold in the back) The TOP MP40 seems to be a carefully made airsoft gun and considering to how limited space they had the gearbox fit into, it's not a big surprise that many delays were experienced in release. MP40 has been a ambitious project from TOP and it has to be said that any reviews of this gun, from wherever they might come, will have to judge carefully what the gun delivers and to who and at what cost.**** Marui SIG Sauer P226 Rail first impressions ****The SIG Sauer P226 Rail is standard Marui gas blowback pistol albeit with stronger blowback and better accuracy than the first ones in their series. It is said to have same features as the Hi-Capa 5.1, but I for one haven?t yet been able to test the accuracy as I got this model just barely 24h ago. Hand guns are something of a cars really, everyone has their own preferences and tastes, but I think this P226 model will find fairly large user base. Thanks to the well-accessible is pistol is very straight forward to use and is pleasure to handle. It comes with de-cocking lever that I found little surprising for budget GBB pistol (it?s quite expensive to make from what I?ve heard). The take down action is done with a help of lever that is a handy to the extreme in comparison with some other take down functions that I?ve come across in GBBs. The frame is completely plastic from outside and has metal structure inside the lower frame. The numerous and accurate details in the frame o
ffset somewhat the plastic feel, but not entirely. The Marui SIG Sauer P226 Rail is indeed a budget GBB and as a such is of trusted quality that adds an new option to the growing Marui GBB series. Well worth a look if you are looking for practical and affordable sidearm, but with more MilSpec feeling than what Hi-Capa 5.1 didn?t deliver.
