News articles across the board!
I have been swamped with a thing called life and haven't been updating this as much as I'd like to. To save time and clutter I will include a few stories in this one thread:
VFC is producing their own version of the USMC sniper rifle the M40. A BASR design and supposedly VSR-10 part compatible; no release date or price point has been given by Vega Force Company. Few details are available for this rifle but updates will be given as they are released.
Next on the list is a licensed edition of the XDM .40 made by/for IPSC. Available for purchase at airsoft global for around $140, this XDM definitely has a more competition style look to it thanks to the flash hider; badass if you ask me. Boasting a 26 round magazine this polymer frame/metal slide pistol is said to run best on HFC 134A or HFC 22. No reviews have yet been posted but this is definitely a nice addition to anybody interested in he XDM line of pistols.
Our last stop in airsoft land today is a second generation stainless steel pistol manufactured by RA Tech. RA Tech is known to make high quality GBB parts for rifles and they have more than earned their spot in the airsoft world because of it. Powered by CO2; this handgun is comprised of stainless steel parts, lowering the slide's cycle rate in comparison to an aluminum slide but increasing felt recoil to that of a real .22 caliber firearm; Airsoft Taiwan intend to visit a shooting range in the Philippines to confirm these reports. However quality comes with a hefty price tag of $1024; don't expect these to be a very common sight on the field. Video showing the gun in action below:

Ok I really like the vfc. I still don't understand the need for a competition style pistol in airsoft. The xdm to me just looks silly. That RA Tech is sweet except for the price tag!

I've wanted to do an m40 build since I saw the now extinct fortress m40 conversion. Alas that kit was just too Damn pricey and hard to find. Perhaps this one will be solid enough to try out.
Rob: I don't like the comp pistols or race guns either but remember america isn't the only airsoft place in the world. Ispc shooting is wildly popular in japan china and europe so it makes sense to have airsoft versions since they can't have real ones.
