Marines Endorse Crosman?

Post by Doublewolf » Sat Sep 15, 2012 7:04 pm

I saw this today:

Marines Airsoft?

It looks like Crosman made an M4 AEG. Interesting.

I think their plan is working. I'm tempted to buy it just because it says Marines on the side. Haha.

Crosmans might do better in the airsoft world if they would invest in good hopup tech...
Several of their guns have none at all!
We all started doing what we love somewhere...

But, the BAX system has one of the best stock buckings. Go figure.

It's probably the same gun as the C11 but 10 bucks more expensive.

So does that mean it shoots at a more reasonable velocity than the C11? The C11 has at least a 20 ft MED--quite impractical for a pistol without a hopup.

If you live close to spartanburg and still want it I can use my employee discount at academy and get you a brand new one for 20% off. They look decently well made

Atls gun is quite nice looking and reliable even if its 10 bucks more the paint job looks a lot better in person.

If they are the glock like tan Co2 guns, they are pretty decent. Heck of a lot better made than the C11s. Though, I still think they have the Co2 over powered issue. It's not as bad as it is in the c11, but it's still there.

These chrono around 400-420. Too hot for a pistol (in my opinion). I would buy a WE Glock for $80-90 (TM compatible, etc, etc) before I bought the clunk, heavy, hot-shooting CP02 for $75.

I googled it, but I couldn't find them anywhere for sale.... Maybe my searching powers are weak today.
