For me I personally hope it's a gbb m1 grand, or a spas 12 gbb, I know can get the spas made into one but would prefer it from a proper manufacturer.
What would you guys like to see ?
 
I want to see some other proven manufacturers try their hand at an L1A1 & Sterling, both gats I loved irl, but never felt were good enough in airsoft form, well the L1A1 anyway, the sterlings only got one manufacturer & dont see many around ?
 
I know what you mean about the SPAS. I'm surprised TM didn't do one after their 870s

There is a gbb M1 Garand but I've no clue how good it is

Personally I'd start selling body parts for a G11 as long as it's got the same rof on 3 round burst

Yeah, a proper GBBR L1A1 would be great, & a gas Sterling shouldn't be too difficult as S&T do the Sten.

An AR18, Stoner 63, H&K G11, Lanchester, Lewis Gun to name a few.

Fantasy guns to someone my age I'd love to see... a Blakes7 Liberator, Space 1999 Stun Gun, ZF-1 from Fith Element but I know these would be too silly & a very niche market.

DOH, I missed the bit about gbb, I was referring to aegs, but in my defence, I am on my third large rum & coke🥴.
In which case, its still the L1A1, nothing does single shot like one of those👍
(It's all they do lol)
 
I'd be all over a gas-powered modern bolt action sniper rifle, using an airsoft design that isn't older than a lot of players at your weekly skirmish games. I'd love an m700 in an MDT chassis, or an SRS. Man I'd love a gas-powered SRS...

And no, the ARBA doesn't count; it may be a bolt action, but it's not a sniper rifle in my eyes!

The original question was about RIFs in general so you are in the clear.

I would like to see E&L release the QBZ-95 AEG they were touting a couple(?) of years ago.

My L1A1 is good, but only after a lot of work on it, so I would like to see a better one available, along with a better FAL than the KA one, which is a bit crap and is based on a non-military version.

In addition, I would love to see a good Browning Hi-Power and a Taiwanese Type 65.

Having had a fondle of a Sterling last weekend, I will probably get one soon.
 
Shell eject, gas powered (or HPA), semi-auto M1014 tri-shot.

There was a guy on Reddit who was making progress on improving the Rare Arms shell eject AR15/M4 as well as converting a shell eject gelsoft glock into 6mm airsoft. IIRC, the last update I saw, US customs seized another Rare Arms AR15 lower he was importing and since then updates have been very few and far between.

I understand why shell ejecting stuff isn't more popular but I just think it's cool.
 
This will get me boo'd, but currently I fancy an HK433. It's probably just because I've used them a lot in games but I've only touched a couple of real ones briefly and not gotten to shoot one, aka I want the thing that's out of reach just because it's out of reach. I've already got a SCAR-L so... pretty pointless overall but whatevs.

Similar thing with the Sig 56X rifles, specifically the 563, which I'd take before the 433. There is a nasty plastic gel blaster version that could maybe be made to work for airsoft with enough effort, but I'll just try and put that out of my mind.

Yeah I did try and find one but I think they don't make them anymore which is a shame.
