Tokyo Marui's New Models

[FreeFrag.UK]

I definitely get where you're coming from.

Without going off on a tangent, after having a SCAR L NGRS I do feel they're a bit overrated, don't get me wrong it's a great gun but not convinced it warrants the price tag at 290fps stock and no mosfet etc.

While I can't defend the lack of a MOSFET, the reason behind the FPS is due to the guns being made purely for the Japanese market. Tokyo Marui don't actually export any of their guns, this is done by independent exporters which may go someway to explaining the pricing but this is pure speculation as I don't have Japanese prices to compare it to.

As a final point, while they may only push out around 290fps they frequently out range and out shoot much higher FPS competitors simply due to product quality and their quality control standards.

For me the biggest let down with Tokyo Marui is that they haven't revisited and updated their old guns. I suspect they would see increased sales for older model NGRS systems such as their AK74-M and G36 line if they were updated to include the stop on empty feature which the NGRS is known for.
