Came across some "new" (from last week) pics of the Masada in several configs and sporting two different handguards (the RIS one is sweet)

Enjoy

Well, check out the link I posted, lots of shots of it in black there.

That "tan" is supposed to be CB, too, I think... at least in the set I posted, it looks like my CB Grimlocks, so I guess thats what CB plastic is supposed to look like. And CB (and even tan) is pretty much a most-environment color.

Masada kit

From Airsoft-news.eu

Magpul PTW: Masada Body Kit
Mike kindly sent news straight from Taiwan regarding Magpul's Masada project. Masada is sometimes described as "SCAR killer" and is one of the contenders for title of the best next generation rifle:

Attached are MASADA's files for real gun. if you need more information of MASADA real gun plz visit Magpul's web site.

This news is from STW (Taiwan Company, Makes lot of multicam equipments) company manager "CYP". He just came back form USA shotshow. Magpul's personell told us some very shock[ing] news.

Magpul MASADA is planning to develop body Kit for airsoft! Motor and gearbox set won't be include[d], apply GEN2 gear box(M16,M4A1,MP5 type). Magpul will develop two type bodies, one is 5.56mm type (for M16 magazine), another one will be 7.62mm type (for AK47 magazine).

I kinda like that, given that the Chinese bodies are usually okay but the internals are often questionable and people seem to want to swap them out anyway; go straight to good quality aftermarket internals and save money. There's another thread about Law Enforcement browsing ASC, but I wonder if a small airsoft-friendly company like Magpul keeps their ear to the ground by browsing the various community forums.

AK47 mag setup seems like an odd choice though, I would have thought they'd chamber for 7.62x51 if they're going against the SCAR. What's this supposed to be, a re-attempt at the SR47?

Unfortunatly we won't be able to get export licence without an end user certificate like most of the fun stuff these days... Hell you can't even get an export licence for a magpul CTR stock...

One that actually works properly would be nice too, imo.

FYI, (Posted this in a duplicate thread after a mis spelled Masada resulted in a no match search)...

The Guns & Ammo 2008 Annual has a 5 page article on the Masada. I'll try to get a link if I can find it.

Magpul seems to be running behind in general.

I figure their PTS line takes second seat to the main stuff, so I'd expect delays or stuff outright not turning out (dunno how committed Magpul is to the PTS line, either).

Personally, I was hoping/waiting for their UBR stock to come out in PTS form. Doubt it'll happen, though.
