Just came across this on the US forum. A couple of downsides, metal bayonet is a bit iffy unless folded, and no hop. It seems the rifle is adapted from a .177 BB air rifle made by Gletcher hence no hop.

Interesting. $210 though? For a plastic stock, I don't see these selling well, especially with no hop. You can get a redfire gas Nagant with a wood stock for $185 at the mo from another US site. Nice to see more ww2 options but I wish they did proper market research.

This is a dream come true when it comes to airsoft Mosins! The ZetaLab clones have a horrible gas system, brittle decorative cocking piece, and a really fiddly internal BB storage... this has a functioning cocking piece and both the gas supply and bbs in a removable magazine. Plus it's CO2 instead of greengas. Proper market research must have been what made this a reality in the first place.
By the way, they do have a hop up, just not adjustable (which is still bad, but better).
Agree with catja - a robust system, using CO2, will be infinitely more skirmishable than those horrid KA and Redfire... "things". WinGun builds guns that you can drive a tank over, this thing should be a beast to use.
Evike have some customer reviews up now. All positive, seems it performs quite well and is strongly built. I was tempted....
