Re: TM Tease time...

You guys are aware less than 50 of the shotguns will be making it to UK retailers. These will be like rocking horse turds.

Do you mean 50 for all time or just initially? Surely if there is demand (which there will be) TM will be supplying that demand as they always have unless you know something we dont and could have inluded in your above post?

Re: TM Tease time...

Might have to invest in something uber sexy then. Can you recommend any modern looking Revolvers? Nothing too big though, about 4" barrel?

A S&W M327 R8 is probably the most futuristic you can get, they do 5" versions and a snub nose series of them. They're replicas of the S&W M&P 8 shot .357s.



Their older production revolvers have a higher FPS though and shoot better in general. Their M629s (below) and M66s are nice and shoot pretty well:



I would recommend a steel finish heavyweight, they weigh much more than a TM or Marushin and they are convincingly like steel, I have never had anyone guess it's ABS when they're handled mine.

That M237 R8 is nice. Will have to save some cash up or sell a few bits!!


Thanks buddy

Did anyone else notice that in the first video when they were showing off the shells there seemed to be a magazine with them - maybe a magazine-fed option for the shotgun if you wanted such a thing?

Do you mean the gas tanks? They look like a bit like magazines.

Thats the gas reservoir that fits in to the butt stock. Anyone have a rough idea to when the m870 will be available to purchase?

Re: TM Tease time...

also how do you know theres only 50 coming to the UK?

Re: TM Tease time...

I'd seriously doubt that there are only 50 units coming to the UK.
As big a market as we are, there would be no point in them releasing teaser shots and having distribution agreements with more than 1 UK retailer.

I'll be buying one, and won't be worrying about stock numbers.

Re: TM Tease time...

Lots of people are setting themselves up for disappointment.

Marui undershot the production of these and the vast majority of them will be sold domestically within Japan.

To give you an idea, one retailer I spoke to ordered 12 CASES of guns (4 to a case), they have been told they'll be lucky to get 8 guns in total.

Re: TM Tease time...

Surely if that is the case then they will produce more in the future?

[Hunter512]

Re: TM Tease time...

This is marui, infamous for frankly not giving a damn about any market other than the japanese one. Feel lucky thay we may be getting any.

Re: TM Tease time...

They undoubtedly will make more, but we could be chomping down Easter eggs before it happens...

Re: TM Tease time...

Removed. There are far too many references to other retailers on this thread, some of which are simply from users posting retailer images. Please think before pressing the post/ reply buttons.

Re: TM Tease time...

Release date set as 8/8/2013 - just over a week away!

This means someone could have one in the UK by mid August, assuming they don't all sell out instantly, which is easily possible. Price is around £230 in Asia, so I bet we will be looking at £300+ if they get to retailers here.
