Zev Technologies Folding Defensive Pistol-9 (Fdp-9) and Folding Defensive Carbine-9 (Fdc-9)

Yeah, I got that email. And ZEV do licence to airsoft, would be cool to have an Fpg in production 

 
Why do people go after these? Are they not just a dressed up glock-in-a-box?

 
For the same reason you buy toy guns as well.
No i mean, he has a point.

There are much better chassis to throw a pistol into if you want that carbine'esk look.

These and I think I saw an airsoft MP5K briefcase ones. Both silly money and make zero sense.

Other than for like 5 seconds of "look at this" in the safe zone or some hardcore role play.

Its not like you are going to get the drop on someone in the woods...

"Wait... I think that suitcase might be ... yes yes hes shooting at me now"

Honestly, you have to feel one, open one, to appreciate it. A little wrist flick, and  bingo, an SMG. 

They truly are the perfection of big boys toy guns.

I have to agree with this. Great as a conversation piece between airsoft collectors and if people are willing to pay that much for that, then that's their choice. However for most these obviously aren't worth it, which is why it seems like even the majority of people who pick one up, sell it on a few months later. 

 
Right, but... It's fun, it's interesting so it's worth something to some people. That's why they buy it, it's not a mystery. The moment one tries to apply "It's only a..." to a RIF the entire deck of cards falls down imo

Oh yeah, I totally get it. Value is what somebody is willing to pay and all that. Does anyone know how much the original retail price was?

 
$225 for the kit that needed the donor G18.  $300 for the complete gun iirc.

 
Referring to the airsoft ones primarily - I don't "get" the premiums on the now out of production magpul ones.

Edit: Then again, this hobby isnt for the budget minded
