    You're right. Rewatching the original show video at 27 mins it says "Since the FPR MkIV has the recoil mechanism inside the buffer tube, the battery is stored in the crane stock rather than inside the buffer tube".

    I was pondering this too (when i saw the released stuff last week) and the biggest give away was the different stock.

     

    Even though I am kinda drifting away from airsoft (towards RS shooting) I think the lure of being a TM fanboi means I am watching this with great interest. I would be interested to see how well 3rd parties take to this - will it be the same way they flocked around the Hi-capa, the VSR and MWS making them the de-facto thing for at least a while or will it just kinda drift along like the DAS and Systema, being "just" an alternative with a niche following.

    That brings back memories. I had a Beretta M92F flavour of that series of electric pistols 20-something years ago.

     

    As you said, it's a plinker but it would still make a very satisfying kill on a skirmish.

    Is that the one with the front of grip safety? I had one of those - cost me £30 and i took the train across London on my own to a small shop in Willisden Green when i was about 13

    From what I can see online the NGRS guns don't have the same easily breakable tabs as the old AEGs. I think they've put a load of random parts together in the hope they can sell it to some poor unsuspecting person who doesn't know better 

    Indeed, NGRS are held only on the front pin. And the solid stock is only done by 3rd party and aren't the cheapest thing on the planet so you would mention that in the add.

    Also the mags are regular AEG mags, not NGS. NGRS EPM mags don't have the hump around the top of the feed lips.

     

    I therefore put it to you, m'lud, that this is a regular AEG, a NGRS shoe horned into a regular body, or one of those short lived 3rd party recoil kits added

    Nearly spat my cup of tea - when brand new is £899 from Defcon (Assuming its the Umarex as seller says is an AEG)

     

    Yes you get the unbranded scope and red dot plus an ACM case but still.... 

     

     

    "it's not been fired just used as a promotional item" 

    "I will throw a new battery in to prove it works"

     

    For some reason, these 2 comments seem to make it seem worse. Also the first one sounds like they're selling it at the price they paid for everything.
