New TM MWS announced

[rj1986]

 

Just announced - MWS URGI 11.5 Inch

[DerDer]

Mandatory not another M4 post.  That out of the way, always nice to have more options in the mws line.

 

[Impulse]

Looks like they're also going to do a longer one? Maybe a 14.5" from the looks of it?

 

Not my cup of tea as the next MWS build I want to do is a bit more retro (well, a retro build and a 2010ish build that I will swap stock and handguard depending on how I feel), but if I was made of money I'd look at getting a 3rd as these do look really nice.

I absolutely know the answer from a production standpoint, but I cannot fathom why you'd keep that gopping stock on it when you don't need battery space.

[Haru]

yes i was wanting a urgi handguard

[RostokMcSpoons]

Looks like TM are running scared of Double Eagle's Noveske GBBR * and have come up with a handsome counter to it

 

 

 

 

 

* I think I'm joking

[Krisz]

Another M4? Crazy innovation. They could build literally anything instead of this. ?

[Haru]

i was hoping for a hk

[hitmanNo2]

I thought there might have been something interesting for an "emergency" reveal but no, ?

[Wavey_Gravey]

Should have made a 416, much profit.

 

Still hoping they’re going to release a GBB MP5…

[hitmanNo2]

Agreed.  They'd rake it in doing a GBB 416 then maybe a couple of years later, a GBB MCX.

[Super64]

The URG-I is the in thing at the moment, both in airsoft and the U.S. real steel market. So this will probably sell by the sack full, particularly in the U.S. If I hadn’t already built my own MWS based URG-I, I’d definitely be looking to get one of these. Personally I’d love TM to do a retro AR, fixed carry handle MWS, particularly with the A2 carry handle. 

[C-Diddy]

Don't really feel like I'm missing out as I've built my own variants, but I do wish they'd have been a bit more adventurous. Even changing the magazine to a P-mag would have been something.

 

A gas MP5 has to be in the offing at some point, surely.

Great, now to decide MP7, M4A1 or URG-I ??

Get the URGI, most end up swapping the handguard out for a MK16 rail anyway.

 

Plus you’ll have a new Gen mag, new ambi charging handle and flash hider.

[Jacob Wright]

It’s a fair point, I’m a fan of the Mk16 rail over anything else as well. 

[DerDer]

Wish they would release an updated tactical master. Even with a front rail. Considering they have the M9, Samurai edge and a M9A1, with their newer GBB pistol system.

 

[EvilMonkee]

Hold on thats not an AK74...colour me disappointed.

[rj1986]

TM have also unveiled the MP5a4 NGRS, as well as the revised G17 G5 and some other bits and bobs today.

 

 

 

 

 

[Wavey_Gravey]

That glock is a want but I bet they make it so you can only use their RDS.

[EvilMonkee]

*yawn*

[Jacob Wright]

As expected really - the A4 is a natural progression and so is the 17 Gen 5. 
 

Would’ve been nice to see something wild and new, next year maybe? ?

[C-Diddy]

It's a good job TMs work so well because they're really lacking imagination when it comes to broadening their range. I know people still buy them in droves (guilty) but come on man. An M4, a Glock and an MP5? Really?

They'll sell. People don't buy unusual guns so why would a relatively small company spend possibly 10s of thousands developing a gun that won't be profitable? Go to any site there will be at least a 10 to 1 ratio of people not running an M4/AK.

[C-Diddy]

Of course they'll sell. I say that in my comment. I'm just disappointed that they aren't doing anything different, but as they manufacture exclusively for the Japanese market, external trends aren't a consideration and I understand that.

 

Their 'unusual guns'as you put it are generally based on anime or video games, reflecting the interests of their customer base. Doesn't stop me from being disappointed that all of their new guns are fundamentally dull, and I say that as someone who runs TM M4-based rifles and a Glock.
