There was some news about this last year, nice to see it`s actually come to fruition. Unfortunately it`s too much dosh, £290, absolutely crazy.

twin triggers are for semi and auto , quite common on early machine guns .the price is not too bad considering it's real wood and a new design not cloned, i think we are kind of spoiled by cheap china ww2 weapons really.

m1a1 Thompson,sten mk2,mp40,stg44,sterling,mk2 bren gun,lee Enfield no4 mk1,Mauser Kar98, Walther ppk,smith and Weston m10 and Mauser m712
Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well

It was originally going to have the twin triggers but there was mention of one being for looks only. Looks like they didn`t bother and just went for the working trigger.
I would agree on the being spoilt by China guns view, but £290 is the price in the far east, by the time (if) it gets to these shores then the cost will be a lot lot more. Which wouldn`t be so bad if the quality was there, the absence of the second trigger points to corners being cut. And as we`ve seen from the Iron Airsoft SMLE high price doesn`t necessarily mean good useable quality out of the box.
If AGM can still knock up an MP40 for less than £100 retail in the far east, then this shouldn`t cost more than £200 even with a wood stock.

i guess it will only be when it get's an independent review that we'l find out what the quality is like and weather it's the money.
