    Funny really... as the glock 18c on its OWN is smaller... Its an easy concealment SMG essentially using the pistol design. Frankly... if that fits in your handbag, you could put a TMP or an mp7 in there too! its fairly large for what it is. Not concealable. Especially compared to the Detonics, PPK/s etc.

    But you wouldnt have the stability of a shoulder stock then, thought the FAB one would fix that, for a lot less as well.

    I think they designed it simply because they can, it doesnt really seem to fit into any particular category but it defo has the cool factor. it probably wont be long before ya start to see them used in movie's after the airsoft one hits the market.,

    I'll defo be getting one, just because it cool. :)

    From IMFDB:
    Hob (Gabriel Damon) carries a UC-M21 as his weapon-of-choice throughout the film. This gun was designed by Dave Boatman and based on an earlier version conceived by Eugene Stoner, the Ares FMG. Stoner developed it in the early 1980s as a PDW for high-ranking politicians and wealthy businessmen in kidnapping prone nations. The blue exterior gives the gun the appearance of a plastic lunchbox, in order to fool unsuspecting cops who don't realize that Hob is a young drug lord.

    I think this might work a bit better, although I'd say with a few mods the gun could actually hold a few things like a wallet in it's carrying case form.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,261 ✭✭✭Puding


    from my understanding it was designed for the hell of it, a theoretical study as it where, bit of fun, in the real world does have a few things going for it, can be openly carried and does not look like a firearm, with stock the pistol is easier to shoot with less training than a pistol with accuracy, same theory as the m1 carbine ww2

    its not totally useless
    sure a g18c is smaller on its own, but you cant shoot it as accuratly without a stock on it
    ok so use the FAB one, but you cant fold that(although all it would probably take is a hinge :rolleyes:
    so, some say "shur why not an mp7?"
    mp7 doesnt have the same stopping power as a 9mm(sorry for the RS, had to get it in)
    and of course, it's feckin deadly:)

    *awaits multiple corrections*


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


    Ah yeah it has real world uses alright, bodyguards & what not, but it would be illegal for civies to own, even in the US, without a SBR licence anyways, that covers the FAB stocks as well.

    Think id need to see the finish in the flesh before purchasing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,901 ✭✭✭T4RGET


    It looks nice but too much like a toy, I used to like silver/chrome guns but now I dislike them:p. Let a few people on boards at it and see what they can do with it, bit of de-shining:). especially some of the people posting in the ' pics of your gear' thread, you know who you are:p:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,463 ✭✭✭Leftyflip


    Kill it! Kill it with fire!!

    That is nasty...
    Looks like that cheap plastic on kids toys...


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


    The frame doesn't look to far off a RS nickle plated finish, not quite sure about the barrel & slide, the photo may not be doing it justice, looks like a lot of background light from a trade show.

    I would have left the controls black for a better contrast.

    Looks nice., shame about those grips though, they look rotten dont they.,

    just out of curiousity..what kind of idiot takes his iphone to an airsoft game?
    Do they think they're Jessica Biel in Blade 3 or something? Can they not do without a phone for a few hours?

    It was for timing bleed-out though, I didn't have a watch. And now I don't have an iPhone either.
