Which of the two support weapons would you prefer? Though listen to Ross and Jon of Airsoft Megastore as they state their case for the Mk46 and PKM... "Who doesn't like machine guns?! We took two of our favorites, the MK46 SAW and the Russian PKM and put them to a head to head performance challenge. Although the PKM has a much longer inner barrel, the SAW was up for the challenge. What gun would you run?

Brian Holt of Team Blacksheep (and Echo1 USA) spends the day at the range with the guys from Rifle Dynamics with which Echo1 USA have a licensing agreement to produce Rifle Dynamics designs for the airsoft market. They're not shooting the airsoft versions though, they're here to shoot the real deal guns. Looks like he really had great time there.
Another good list of new products and offers from WGC Shop this week. They now have in stock the CORE Tactical Handguard for PKM Airsoft Gun; CORE Grip for PKM / M4 Airsoft Gun; the kit version of the GHK G5 GBB in Multicam with the complete airsoft gun coming very soon; and the LONEX 360 Rds Flash Magazine for M4/M16 AEG Series.
Two new goodies available for you to purchase at Bunny Workshop. The first one should delight airsoft PKM users as it's the Core RIS System for the A&K PKM, which is a clone of the Zenit B50 allowing you to mount weapons accessories on the PKM. The second one is still for AK fans, as the Magpul MOE AK Grip is now in stock and can fit AK-47s to AK-74s.
Some news for those who are waiting for the airsoft version of the 57 CENTER AR-57 Rifle as S&T (Smart Team) have announced that it is already available in the form of the ST-57 AEG with two flavours: the default crane stock, and version with the M231 Stock. They also released a wood kit for the A&K PKM for those who prefer the classic look and the AS VAL and VSS Vintorez will be released in October.
The A&K PKM is now in stock at RedWolf Airsoft and you can order it for US$469.00... "The Real Steel PK is a 7.62 mm general-purpose machine gun designed in the Soviet Union and currently in production in Russia.

It remains in use as a front-line infantry and vehicle-mounted weapon with Russia's armed forces.

Robert and his team at CWI Airsoft just posted their custom A&K PKM AEG online. Costing to US$674.75 you get Bakelite with the faux wood and weathered to make to give it a vintage look. The Grip, Handle, and Stock are made by Nylon Fiber not real wood so it might not be to the liking of those who prefer real wood. Still it's something nice to add to your personal airsoft armoury.
Finally, we get to hear about new products in stock right now at Airsoft Helper with this news update sent in by Bodom...

You've seen the teaser video and now here's the full-length shoot test of the A&K PKM AEG as reported by friends from Public Enemy. This one's a 12,000-round shoot test, breaking the previous 8,000 round conducted previously. It's an impressive feat, and we hope they agree to our request to show us the internals to find out how the parts withstood the punishment.
