BT TM7

[punkncat]

So BT licensed the Mini and threw a shroud over it?

Hmmmm.

Too small IMO to be milsim. Maybe I'm wrong but who knows. I like my x7 because it's big and feels like a real rifle.

It's based around a sub-machine gun, it's suppose to be small and compact.

I like it.

Very cool, but these same specs are floating around all over the web and a few are noticeably absent.

-Eyes?
-Max rof?
-can it run on co2?
-price?

Just my $.02. If it is reasonable enough I will check it out for sure.

Well, a lot of kids don't know what a real rifle feels like anyway. It looks like a nice stab at the market to me. In a summer scenario around here, I won't use anything that doesn't help get paint down range. I would count the light weight as a feature, as long as the body will hold up. You would think BT should be able to do that.

I guess the electronics are in the back?

i hate the commercial and I hate the little writeup about the marker...but surprisingly I like the gun....cant wait for a real price and some reviews.

my main concern just looking at it is the stock/body strength and how big of a PITA it is to tear down

Mini technology inside would lead me to believe the following:
Eyes: Yes
Max ROF: 20 BPs w/ stock board, ramping and other mini available modes. I'm assuming they'll be using the existing stock mini board...
cO2?: Nope Air only.
Price: probably not too bad with the price point of the mini I couldn't see it heading much higher than the $350 point.

Kudos to BT. Finally a milsim gun that isn't a $500 blowback.

im assuming since they said MINI technology that it should be a MINI inside a milsim shroud. so if it is, eyes = yes, max rof = depends on board, co2 = no. but then again thats just speculation. lets wait for some more info

as for price. i would personally assume this would be around $400 reason being is that the MINI is $325. add in the milsim shroud and stock and that looks to be about a decent price. but again, we shall see.

** also looking at gun reviews on Pbnation. it looks like BT listed there TM7 with a retail price of $399

You never know, and cannot assume anything. Consider how Smart Parts "Dumbed Down" the Ion and made it into the SP1.

[snoopay700]

I like the idea, i was actually thinking the only thing i don't like about the mini is you can't customize it with different bodies like the mag, so at least this is a step in that direction.

[warbeak2099]

Great idea on their part imo.

And a single trigger electro at that. I always thought that was pretty cool, but you never see any.

Oh I agree. A milsim electro MUST have a single trigger or at least an option to put one on! I think this will be the first time a milsim gun was actually worth $400. Tac-One's aside of course.

[Toll]

All they need to do is have an ammo box rigged up like some guys have done with airsoft markers and I would honestly declare it the best idea I've heard in years.
