We guess this ACM MP44 is also the same as the Quality Power MP44 that is now in stock with other retailers in Hong Kong. Airsoft Panda is also retailing this for US$199.00 and like the Quality Power this a full metal World War II AEG replica and comes with a real wood stock. This uses a version 2 gearbox so maintaining it would be easy for those used to using M4 AEGs. This is also compatible with the AGM MP44 parts.
Those who are dreaming of an airsoft PPK/S from Maruzen but could not justify the price, you can settle for an ACM version of this. It is available at Airsoft Panda for US$64 and it is based on the Maruzen version. It has a a metal slide, lower frame and outer barrel. Realistic looking markings, adjustable hop-up and very much compatible with the Maruzen PPK/S parts... so they say.
Another breath of fresh air from the usual M4-based blowback airsoft guns. This US$115.99 ACM MP5J at RSOV.com perhaps takes from where the Well MP5K GBB SMG left. This has metal parts, with the plastic parts being the handguard and lower frame. Depending on the weather, this can come out firing at 375fps out of the box. We wonder if the gas magazines from Well fit this and if they do, come the usual problems. No three-round burst option in the switch is found.
Those who love the new KSC System 7 but would like to save on costs can consider this Chinese-made M9 Airsoft Handgun from Airsoft Panda. It has metal externals and compatible with KSC System 7 M9 parts, which means also the magazines from KSC can fit. It comes with a plastic hard-case and costs US$68.50, shipping cost not included. Go check it out if interested.
Two more new items in stock at Airsoft Panda, especially for those looking for cheaper gas blowback rifles. The new ones cost US$110 and come with markings. So just check these out if you fancy ACM gas blowbacks... "We have got a new product called China made full metal Gas blowback M4 CQB-R w/ Buttstock (M189C)and China made full metal Gas blowback M4A1 RIS w/ Buttstock (M189B)."
The SVD is the flavour of the year in terms of airsoft rifles. Blame Real Sword for the excitement they generated, where others have failed. So you have CA, RS, A&K, and now the generic ACM brand at RSOV.com for this. It's packaged the same as the A&K so this might mutate into several brands soon too. Costs US$64.34... "A.C.M. SVD Dragunov springer sniper rifles, plastic handguard, plastic stock, metal body, metal barrel, come with one plastic wind-up magazine."
Another KAC PDW replica now in the market and available at RSOV.com. It's a generic ACM for now, but expect to mutate in several brands in the following days. This looks like a close copy of the DBoys replica with laser engraved markings, with the exception of the AN/PEQ2 battery box as the DBoys copy uses the DBALS version. Available at US$100.79. Get this if you're not particular about brands.
New gloves from eBaybanned, which is actually based on the Mechanix Impact Tactical glove. It's a rare item for us as it is hard to find the real thing from our part of the world. Tried ordering one from one seller who offers it, but it took ages to have it in stock, that we never bothered to wait. If you like the quality of the ACM replicas of Mechanix gloves, then you might consider this one. Costs US$21.50 with shipping included.
Surely ACM manufacturers will move fast to copy any innovation from other airsoft manufacturers. The latest to be copied is now the TM Xtreme Hi-Capa full auto gas blowback pistol which is really a fast shooting one. The copy is available at Gunner Airsoft and available for US$55.00 and this will fit existing TM Hi-capa mags being an exact copy. Just hope then when firing it the slide doesn't fly out due to the extreme blowback action.
Well, well, well, there's now an ACM mask with fans to remove any fog in your lens when playing. This is an exact replica of the Tokyo Marui Pro-Goggle with anti-fog ventilation. This also got some UV protection sticker (we hope it's really true). It costs US$35.09 at RSOV.com, so this is a good bargain. And during this summer you will need all the help to remove moisture forming fogs in your goggles. Don't go in firing blind with fogged-up goggles.
