Systema Stopping Airsoft Production
For those who haven't heard, it looks like Systema is stopping all airsoft production until October. I got the news here:

Any reason as to why they are doing this?

The company has said multiple times that they want nothing to do with civilian airsoft or activities. Im not surprised.

Economic downturn? Reduced supply of materials from other companies suffering economic troubles?
Who knows. I'll be happy when the last of my parts arrives.

Do you what this means?? Now those bastards in HK will charge a $160 Systema mechbox for $400 and a $400 magnum kit is going to be around $1000

Supply and demand.
Business 101. Luckily my PTW parts stock is not going to increase in price, but I hope the last of my awaited parts is available.

Yes it does, you're not a member of that forum, so it won't work for you.

SystemA shares manufacturing facilities with manufacturing industry. Shop operators in Japan have been quick to scale back operations, probably to maintain their long standing contracts with larger customers which would affect the amount of flex time they could sell to SystemA. All it takes is one shop making your a few of your critical parts to drop your job to halt your production.

What I liked best is how he specifically mentioned you, mcguyver. :P
That is bad news for us non-PTW owners but who are still SystemA enthusiasts. They make quality products. Hopefully once this is over nothing will change (for the worse) in their products.
