Sweet baby! I saw the Tanio Koba in Redwolf a few weeks ago and was curious about it. Can't wait to see Ken stocking up on some of these.

the upper on a SCAR needs to be clear like an MP5. There are a few here already and a few retailers say they have more coming in with clear lowers but I wouldn't except more after that. WETTI said they don't want to do a "proper" clear version.

That's right. Thier SCAR (just as the RS one) has a polymer lower and a metal upper. Making a clear version of the polymer lower is quite easy, as they can use the same molds and all. But they would need new molds to create a polymer upper, and it's not worth it.

Any idea for mags compatibility on this Koba+KJW GBBR?

Doombringer · September 27th, 2009, 17:39

Why would the upper need to be clear also?

L473ncy · September 27th, 2009, 17:47

No. The upper is whats restricted just like on the MP5 since that's what carries the serial number. The lower is fine so they can use the same mould, just need to use clear plastic but the upper they would need to make a whole new mould for it.

pusangani · September 27th, 2009, 17:59

It's nicer having the lower clear as you still get the nice metal upper like a proper scar has, and you can then paint the plastic tan or black etc.

Conker · September 27th, 2009, 18:06

That's right, but our fucking laws prevents this, yey.

Ken, is there any other models coming (and standard mags if possible) or will we have to always base ourselves on this one to get different builds?

Hey everyone,

Pretty stoked about this too and found some good stuff over from Arnies Airsoft:

Complete breakdown and review

Firing report:

First major malfunction (after 2000+ rounds, no lube)

Gun still firing with broken piece and what he has to say about its firing:

I don't understand a lot of the technical bits (never handled a GBBR let alone a GBB) but so far it seems pretty promising.

Cheers

Looks good, performs poorly.

It's like buying a WA or AGM with almost zero third party parts/support.

People gotta stop saying this. It's front end is 100% TM compatible, just 0 third party internal wise, but that may change by the time they start coming out (in canada)
