Many thanks to one of our of Hong Kong US-based reader, MJP, who has given us this scoop... "I was stumbling around Tokyo Arms, one of the few airsoft sites that isn't blocked at my office, and I discovered that Snow Wolf, the people who brought us the springer Barrett M99 are coming out with an M82 AEG!. No other details seem to be out there, but given that the Socomgear M82 is the least expensive at $800ish, maybe this'll be the opening round of an M82 price war - or hopefully, one to lighten the darn things up!"

It's priced at US$349, it's an AEG, not a springer, and better place your pre-orders if you like the price.
