It's hitting the shelves and flying off as we speak. A clone of the CA M249 series...

Pointact will have them for around 300-350ish.
These are A&K brand if that means anything. However if it's a CA clone one could always buy the CA gearbox to drop in it. But then again that would make it more then the CA

so now this means every noob and thier mom will be running around with clone m249s. For 400$ for a full metal one...Ord, the place in the red woods, CQB city. And every other area of airsoft will now be full of SAWs. That means alot of KIDS with full auto only guns useing engament distances of 0. And these things supposedly shoot 500fps stock. I can for see ALOT of upcoming issues at games.
Airsoft GI is stating a stock 310FPS?

There are a lot of speculations of what the stock FPS is. Perhaps that is what they were doing their tests with but might not be in the actual production version. Or could be 450FPS with .12

like adam says, i don't think everyone and their mom will be buying these, or at least fielding them all the time, it's a heavy ass gun.
My best advice for new airsoft players:
Price announced at pointact- $360

I'm not so worried about the safety issues of an assload of 249's on the field.
Gun control is not Crime control.
