Reply With QuoteI would just like to say that the HW 35 looks a damned sight nicer than the MP 40, or a Sten for that matter.

Actually, that's not quite accurate. The Patchett/Sterling is not a Sten derivative. It is an MP28 with a folding metal stock and the trigger group moved forward, a modified magazine, and a few detail improvements. Lovely SMG, but it's DNA is from the Hugo Schmeisser-designed MP18/28, not Shepherd and Turpin's Sten.Originally Posted by Muskett

That's because it's an airgun.
Not a replica of a killing machine.

Hi John you won't be disappointed.
I really do like it indeed, plus it goes nice with my C96
Kind regards

Never mind the MP40, I can't wait for a replica of the STG44 or FG42. Now that would be the cats nadgers
We've got the Walther/Umarex Uzi rep in .22LR down the club. Its pants!

One step at a time eh.Never mind the MP40, I can't wait for a replica of the STG44 or FG42. Now that would be the cats nadgers
Graham from Armex said the next one should be the STG44, first ever Assault Rifle.
How about a L1A1 anyone?

Even better looking than a HW35
The L1A1 would be different.One step at a time eh.

Make a change from all the German stuff coming out.

Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

Only trouble with all these replicas they use bl**dy bb`s. At the very least lets have some legal limit pellet firers.
may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle arm, to reduce sinusoidal repleneration
Exactly. A developed Lanchester with a folding stock.

Yes agree i would prefer pellet firers and it is do-able.
So come on manufacturers lets see what you can do.

My Maruzen Mach 10 does the same - doesn't take long to empty a full mag if you don't take your finger of the trigger when in full autoAs it happens I own a 6mm airsoft AEG MP40.
Sorry- but it craps on the BB version as it fires FULL AUTO, shall I say it again FULL AUTO
And I can get 50 yds range from it, spray and pray, but so what- it's FUN

Speaking of which, I have been testing an ex Brazilian Army Rossi EB79 of late and enjoyed the experience so much that I had to find one for myself. Luckily I did.
Oh and you were right about the MP40. A club member asked me what I would score it out of 10 this morning and my reply was 11!
I experienced a few jams and even when I missed the target, I was still enjoying the experience. This new Umarex is pure indulgence and I feel and I have to have one.

Hi John
Cool on the EB79, only seen these on internet. Wouldn't mind one myself.
I also will having the MP40, not experienced any jams. However the Black Umarex BBs fitted better in the mag than the silver ones can't remember what brand they are though.

Handled the two tone (battlefield) model in our toy shop today.
This is a very well made heavy replica priced at just under £300.
It's semi auto so it's a bit annoying.
Not Umarexs fault.
Not for me but worth a look for the quality.
