Leison E&T Co., Ltd. is a new distributor for many real-steel and wargame products.
Not much is known about them so far - but don’t get too excited people - this is for retailers only.
I was having difficulties accessing their company site with Firefox, but I managed to extract a URL to their Product and About Us pages, which should load the rest of the page for any interested parties.
Cheers.

News from Mad Bull this morning. See below for the information from Simon @ Mad Bull.


Features:

USB Power adapter (You can charge it by your computer or you can buy regular USB home or car charger.)
Extreme power save function
More details:

MSRP: $150 or lower
What would be really cool about this USB Chrono, would be the ability to record results to the Windows Clipboard when connected via USB. Event Organizers can keep a spreadsheet of the attendees’ chrono results during signup.
Would be a cool feature indeed. Keep on dreamin’ people.
No, you don’t need to take your computer with you to charge this thing - a cigarette lighter adapter for USB devices will work very conveniently - it’s still fun to think about.
Here are the actual features of the product, as listed by Mad Bull (I’m a fan of the tripod adapter on the bottom):
- Velocity: FPS/ MPS.
- Fire Rate: Balls per second BPS/BPM
- Pre-set B.B. weight v.s. energy (Joule) 0.20g .023g 0.25g 0.30g 0.33g 0.43g 0.89g
- Self-supply internal sensor light source. You can use it indoors or outdoors. Day time or night time.
- Extra large size diameter, (20mm. You can even measure the velocity of paintballs).
- External Barrel Adapter for aiming straight.
- Using 2 AAA rechargable battery Battery.
- Auto shut down in 120 second to save battery life.
- Blinking when low battery
- Handheld small size: 12.5*5.5*5cm
- Tri-pod adapter on the bottom.
- 6061T6Aircraft aluminum. Extremely durable.
Sounds pretty good to me.

Hey everyone,
Had a few emails asking why Airsoft-news.eu is down.

And while the image on their site is typically enough for most people to read and understand, I’ll spell it out too.
THEY ARE MOVING TO A NEW WEB SPACE WITH LARGER BANDWIDTH.
Readership increasses, and these are steps that must be taken to ensure stability. Congrats to the crew at Airsoft-News.eu on outgrowing their old residence.
Cheers!

A while back we mentioned Magpul PTS and STAR Airsoft have teamed up to product the “Green Label” of economical airsoft products.
I don’t know how we missed it, but since then, there is now a 120rnd version available as well. All you spray-n-pray fanatics can have some fun now too.
Here’s a pic (Black and Dark Earth are available):

Get them from:
Airsoft Extreme, Airsoft GI, and “Pre-Order” (wtf? They’re in-stock everywhere else…) from WGC Shop.

King Arms has released a bunch of new products recently. Most notably are their LiPo batteries. Mad Bull Airsoft has had an LFP battery system in the works for some time, but looks like King Arms wins the Lithium race.
At least we have an alternative to the cheaper quality LiPo cells from other manufacturers available today.
Other new products include:

OK.
So I write a post saying I’ll be on vacation back on the 19th, and I forgot to publish the damn thing.
Well, I’m back - and I apologize to those who’ve been waiting for email replies for the last week. I’m getting around to each of them now - so expect a reply in the next 24 hours.
Cheers!

I recently had an opportunity to ask the folks at AirsoftXtreme International for some clarification on the whole lawsuit fiasco.
Here’s their response:
…Up to now we still havent received any word nor a single tissue paper that says we are being sued by an unknown team.
As we have explained in some of the forums that It is all a black propaganda done by Popular Airsoft. ( A Filipino online magazine which you have to pay US $3.99 to download per issue ). They wanted to sensationalize a story for them to get known in all airsoft community. All Malicious posting on online forums and news were done by Popular Airsoft.
We will always continue on producing a FREE Online AirsoftXtreme Magazine and we will still continue to produce Printed Version in high-quality paper.
AirsoftXtreme #7 (Sept-Oct) will be out very soon.
For those not in-the-know, here is the back story we (and a dozen other sources/forums) reported back on July 17, 2008: Airsoft Xtreme Magazine Sued by United Airsoft Alliance (UAA).
Until anyone can prove otherwise, I’m happy to say that this is all bogus, and AirsoftXtreme International is alive and well.
If you have anything to add to this story, please email me directly at mr.subtle (at) 6mm-mag (dot) com.
