Airsoft Global is now taking pre-orders of the ARES PGM Mini Hecate .338. ARES is swinging around the world making the airsoft sniper replicas. They first have the Germans (AMP-DSR1), then the Americans (CheyTac M200), and now the French. The PGM Mini-Hectae .338 is French designed and is a smaller Calibre version of the PGM Hecate II which chambers the .50 calibre round. This is intended as an anti-personel sniper rifle and doesn't have the long range like the M200 or the Hecate II.
