    As for the Marushin randal custom..... Guys... stop pusting every gun that ehobby puts on its site... they are re releasing the marushin line, those have been out years, like th derenger, like all other marushin things you put on here.... Do some research before declaring something news. (Also the wood is a bit darker than that, its flash in the photo.

    Why isn't it news? Not all of us on here have an indepth knowledge of the entire marushin range either past or present. marushin release some unique and good quality pieces. Surely, as some of their stuff comes back online, those of us less well informed than your good self would like to know about it!

    Have to agree with the lad here.

    Not everyone is a vetran to the sport and given its recent legalisation there are plenty of lads that have only gotten into it in the last while & even the lads who have been into it since the start or before may have overlooked something with all the sites selling M4 & M4 accessories out there.

    That one would be able to be flip-cocked given the rounded loop, dont know how the internals would stand up to it, presumably not very well.

    Id say Terminator 2 has been responsible for more damaged pump & lever airsoft guns than any other film or game.

    Well if you looked around sites in HK, you'd see these items... just because the one site that most people here look at suddenly stocks it, doesnt make it news worthy...

    I consider news 'new' items. or 'significal re runs'

    Anyway... marushin items tend to look nice, and function like a wet fish as a hammer...

    A slight generalisation perhaps? I have owned a few marushin products, including an m1 garand, and for a limited edition piece it functioned perfectly!


  • Registered Users Posts: 947 ✭✭✭Frank the Manc


    Who dictates whats news or what "significant"?
    If someone hasnt seen something before then its new to them.

    The idea for this thread is for new products to this market, from many different sites to be put in the one place, where conversation can include local knowledge & criticisms, as opposed to some yanks saying "Do want" or "Phailz cos its only 320 fps".

    Its also handy for them that have restricted internet access in work etc.

    This aint England, this aint even Zimbabwe at the moment so were alwasy goint to be a minimum of 3-5 years behind the rest of the world.

    Well said frank! If the news section only consisted of brand new items then it would be a pretty small thread:).
    Granted that particular marushin product might not be new but it is newsworthy to a few people surely!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,308 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Master


    People are free to post whatever they consider to be newsworthy in this thread

    Weather that be

    News of an Airsoft event
    New products on the market
    Old products being re-released
    New stock of an old product coming back on the market

    Or anything really that is airsoft related news

    If anybody does not wish to read about it they are of course free to ingore any posts they feel are not relevent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭Firekitten


    Nice to see tag team thanking is back.... must be the holiday season.

    That items not been 'out of stock' anywhere for years... It's been available since release in 2002. If this is for new products to new shops all the time, then its going to get hella busy. All I'm saying, is a little research before posting is also as considerate as posting it in the first place.

    I wasn't saying what was ok or not, merely pointing out the age of the item lorded as new... I have no intention of backseat moderating, that job is yours, (from the front seat).

    Rsov have some vests in this section for 1 cent, you pay postage, not my style but they have multi sham etc. and the mini pistols that everyone was on about.

    May be worth grabbing some cheap tat.
