According to sources, Classic Army are doing a run of "Classic Guns" from history. The first two appeared at ShotShow 11 in the USA.
I hope I'm not repeating something everyone knows but I'm massively interested by these two and their production by a non-cheapsoft manufacturer.
No details as yet on anything else or the specifications of these two.
wow! good find heres hoping the carbines a seg....and the sten

Kiwi airsofter, just pew-pewing.

if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well
That GBB Sten prototype has been around for a while.

You do indeed. The German lineup is an Stg44 (visible on the bottom left) and the MP40 (seen on the top left). Both again are Classic Army but have no details released yet.

Is the STEN going to be a GBB then? If not, and it's an AEG - looks like they've made some proper STEN mags, rather than utilising MP40 ones

When the m1 carbine is available.
Might be time to forward a copy of that photo to their sales department then.
It is odd that there are no details though, not even over on the [sarcasm] font of knowledge [/sarcasm] that is zeroin.

Could be that they're arranging some sort of exclusive stockist deal like Hexagon did with the ppsh and they don't want their retailers getting upset till it's too late. That or they messed up/cancelled production and don't want to admit it.
Sorry guys but I am not impressed by CA at all. I have bought 4 guns from them and each one had a problem. My AGM is more reliable. 1) my CA m4 has had a crack in the receiver (fixed). 2) my CA mp5 also had a crack in the receiver. 3) my colt 1911 ALSO had a crack in the receiver, the mag broke very easily and there was a feeding problem (FIXED). 4) my M14 is currently in maintenance because it won't feed with any of my mags (being fixed). I DO TAKE GOOD CARE of all my guns. So don't tell me I am hopeless but I don't really think that CA is any better than AGM at all. Most of these issues are fixed by now but I still wouldn't buy a sten from them!

at airsoft games ive only ever heard compliants about clasic army stuff, yet on forums many people rave about it
ive always had marui airsoft stuff (very fragile as i throw my guns around a lot)
then the agm cheapsoft came out and ive never looked back.
though since the UKARA bollocks started off, all my purchases were either imports, self builds or second hand anyway

That's because externally (lookwise) they are great but when it comes down to the internals, I's rather go AGM

i remember when ca came out and most guns didnt last a day before going back to the shop,they really were a load of s##t ,but they were the first alternative to tm other than academy and they really were cheep.then they sorted themselves out and found better reliability,they also got the power under control as they were wild at first like a lot of chinasofts are now.however then they started the sportline budget range... and they are'nt the same quality at all ,you expected a good gearbox in a cheep plastic shell but it was'nt even the same box?.i had an m15 from them and it remained untouched internally for about 5 years ,can't ask for more than that.so a checkered history but their upper price range it good imho.

3) my colt 1911 ALSO had a crack in the receiver, the mag broke very easily and there was a feeding problem (FIXED).
Not to take it too far off of topic, but CA don't make a 1911.
