I know what you mean but unfortunately what normally happens when something different is announced everyone posts about how cool they are and that they'd love one, but I'd say less than 10% actually buy one. Sticking with popular models is cheaper and less risky for the manufacturers

With the cost of living we're in that perfect storm preventing much of a change from it as barriers lie both with consumers and manufacturers.

I think there's also something of a lack in consumer confidence because new products are released but the marketing behind them belies lots of caveats or a serious lack of compatibility with certain parts.

The cost to produce something unique is more often than not, not worth the cost to the manufacturers. It's why the BREN for example is £800 and will no doubt have a small run

This is one of the key reasons. Airsoft gun manufacturers are businesses; they manufacture products that will sell in volume and recoup the up front costs as rapidly as possible, while also providing a viable long term income stream.

However, they occasionally have brainfarts, such as G&G's Type 64 BR.

I'd

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!

I'd love a modern gas bolt action. You could start with a decent M700 and you can use the same internals for a whole range of bolt action rifles. I just want to be able to have a decent MSR

Because they're the cheapest for them to make (Already having the tooling etc) and they sell well. The cost to produce something unique is more often than not, not worth the cost to the manufacturers. It's why the BREN for example is £800 and will no doubt have a small run

Yeah I get that but it's just an over saturated market with them all now

I would love for one of them (TM) to make a decent SCAR-H MK.20 TPR





There are currently only 2 options: an ARES AEG, which can be hit or miss and is hard to upgrade because ARES (lol, iykyk), or a very expensive VFC one (£900 just for the gun).

This is legit my grail gun, i have been tempted to get the AEG Cybergun (ARES) AEG one on Patrolbase, but it comes with standard AEG power and is apparently very hard to get parts for to upgrade to DMR levels, and thus my dream is dead, as I cannot justify the VFC. If I got it, that fkr would never leave its box.

I have considered getting a normal SCAR H, one of the other long-barreled models, and trying to get an upper that looks like this, but idk if it's possible lol

I would go for a Martini-Henry if one was available; my great great grandfather used one at Rorke's Drift.
