I hope so. Always seems to be the case with Enfield's... Jacked up extortionate prices for sub par rifles because they know people are dying for Enfields on the market so will pay...

£450 seems a bit pricey considering their K98s and other spring rifles are like £250-350. Annoying as i was hoping this would finally be the affordable and skirmishable spring Enfield we all wanted....

Yes its confirmed. They confirmed it last year but its been delayed to most likely early next year.

King arms are finally re-releasing their FAL/SLR line towards the end of this year. Best wait for them. Far cheaper than better than Ares. Other than that, Brit Cold War stuff is cheep, numerous and you can even use more modern DPM if you aren't that bothered about accuracy. Just depends on how far you want to take it but its one of the more easy historic loadouts to make.

This was just posted by S&T today. We are getting close!

I do agree. Airsoft is probably the only hobby people are satisfied to buy sub par products which don't work well out the box for crazy prices....

Are those any good? I didn't hear that great things about them when they came out.

Lol yeah, just about got mine to basic "functionality" after about 5 separate fixes haha.

Its just that most airsoft pistols end up being an occasionally used accessory anyways, and at close range (which is when you want to use a pistol) almost all of them have the same effect. So i would much rather pay £100 odd for a decent full metal WE than £150 plus for a TM. But anyway TM is not the only brand which makes quality Airsoft pistols, i could buy an Umarex glock which comes just as recommended as TM and are metal, so i really don't understand the TM hype personally.

I hear nothing but great things about TM, but for their price, a fully plastic pistol never sat right with me.

I think its mostly a collection thing for me although i will probably use it in game on occasion. I imagine its just the same as the standard M9s WE and TM makes just with the RE skin. Personally, I'm not really interested with all the extra on the version 2 and its like £100 more.

I am Interested in buying one of the Resident Evil/Biohazard M9 replica pistols, however not sure which is the better option. WE is full metal and the much cheaper, but of course TM is known as the higher quality but are plastic and more expensive.

Really, that sucks to hear for you, but i only ever seem to hear people saying the opposite, singing the praises of LCT and saying that E&L are the inferior AKs 🤷‍♂️ .

Ngl the EBB LCT looks pretty epic. LCT have a great rep at making the best AKs in the Airsoft market both internally and externally, so you probably cant go wrong with them.

Their K98s and Springfield rifles are only like 250 dollars which is far cheaper than this. If they retail the same as that then i am game.

Yeah sadly looks like another case of "screw them with the price its a Lee Enfield after all"...... For a springer i will pass on that. When airsoft companies stop making these rare novelty guns for stupid money and actually work to make an affordable skirmishable historic rifle, i will be interested.

I've never had a problem with DPM in the U.K or your standard European climate, think its best for our green and dark forests. Sure there are probably better more modern options nowadays, but DPM is cheap af (Even brand new unissued stuff still) and in the end, as stated before it's only airsoft so it doesn't really matter.

Lol isnt that what standard DPM is for?

That could very much be so. However i do think it looks a little too factory fresh looking to be a field mod.

Saw this come up on Ebay. Its a standard British Army DPM shirt and looks offical from the label but its in colours ive never seen before. Anyone have any info on this?

Always fancied me one of the Carbine rifles from the Resistance game series. It's basically an M14 EBR with a wooden stock so not impossible to make if you really wanted to.

Yeah i saw their FB response. I think they dont realise just how many people want those ffs. I hope they pull their finger out a bit faster lol.

Thanks for that. Yeah, they posted endlessly about their new Thompson, M4s and that weird looking modernised M1 carbine yet totally neglected their promised FALs. Seems stupid considering how much people love the FN rifles but like you said let's hope that LCT gives them the nudge. Will take a look at that questionnaire.

And leagues above the Ares from what i hear.

Does anyone have news on this? King Arms stated the long-awaited reissue of their FAL/SLR rifles were due last year but I guess COVID put a stop to that. Haven't heard anything since but I hope they still are coming as I've probably been waiting for them to restock for like 8 years haha.
