E&C G28

[JinxDuh]

Saw TaiwanGuns video on it a while ago and forgot about it, seems to be releasing this month but there’s really no info about it that I can find. Wonder if anybody else knows some more info?
 

Apparently it’ll also be available in the 500 different shades of FDE which will be nice.

Ultimately it's a longer, semi only version of their standard 417. General consensus seems to be that they're a solid V2.5 style gearbox so should have plenty of volume to be DMR material.

I'm certainly looking at the standard 417 to make into a Benghazi/13 hours style DMR.

I’ve been longing for an Umarex g28 but the price point put me off. Hoping this will be a more reasonable price over here. Also interested if E&C will have the markings like a lot of their other replicas

I have the E&C M110a1 , it’s a decent replica build wise , the plastic furniture is a bit meh with poor stock to tube fit , but otherwise not bad at all , reasonable price at around £325 new ( when I bought mine ) . Mags are cheap , it was running a bit warm out of the box so for the time being it’s had a lower spring popped in , eventually though I’ll get it fitted & fettled for a proper DMR . Might even see a day out in anger after that ?

if they follow suit with the G28 I don’t think it’ll be a bad platform to build from at all .

I'm currently trying to do that with my TM 417. 2 things are stopping me

1) the gearbox is shagged and needs to go to a tech

2) the front rail screws are holding on harder than Jimmy Saville in a morgue

@JimFromHorsham Did you have to import the M110 A1 to get the trades? If so where did you grab it from?

I have an E&C M27 with the trades as well but had to wait a wee while to get it.

straight from U.K. retail , most of them have just removed the trades from

images so as not to

upset Umarex , as it came in the box it just had black stickers over all the HK logos.

I emailed a company that sounds like maction bobbies re their E&C m4a1 and they also confirmed it was full trades but not shown in images.

I think Taiwan gun forgot about the premiere ?

Christ on a bike. Almost as much as the vaunted VFC, but I suppose it'll probably work a little longer.

That's insane, I'd expect it to be cheaper in the UK though.

Why?

Why?

TG prices are very high for RIFs, I've noticed when they do reach the UK they're cheaper. Recent example is the DE M924 DMP9, £250 on TG, £200 in the UK. Or how about EC202, £400 on TG, £340 on Patrol Base. I'm sure there are plenty more.

It's funny, I haven't looked at TG for pricing for so long that I seem to have missed the bit where they made everything expensive. Their pricing is largely irrelevant seeing as they won't ship to here anyway (unless you want to pay PB to mark it up on top of course).
