I saw this a few weeks ago and I'm really happy about it ;D However, I hope Marushin doesn't have their head up their butts and only configure that 20 rd CO2 mag to work in the gun it comes with My hope is that they are smart enough to make it interchangeable with their current M-1/M-2 Carbines in both 6mm & 8mm. We'll see.

Out of curiosity, why wouldn't you want Co2 in the mags? I agree with you, but I want to know your reasons.

I think you may have misread my meaning This new short mag is configured as the original 20 round M-1 Carbine magazine. This is a good thing. I like it. It is also designed to work with Co2 cartridges. This is also a good thing. Now, Marushin currently has 4 Carbines on the market. 2 M-1 Carbines (6mm & 8mm) and 2 M-2 Carbines (6mm & 8mm). My hope is that they (Marushin) have designed this new short Co2 magazine to fit into all their current Carbine products. All the Carbine magazines should be interchangeable, within their BB size. If you have to buy a new gun just to have a new mag that runs on Co2 would be stupid. So I hope you'll be able to buy a 6mm Co2 magazine independently of the gun, same for the 8mm.

It is a Japanese company. My question is, will the bolt on the current carbine be able to handle C02, as I know that the gun was made in Japan and can only use HFC134a. I hope that marushin make a new model on which the bolt can handle the pressure of the C02.

Ohhh I'm sorry. Yes I understand now. And actually I think Marushin has 6 Carbines.
The M1 carbine (cocking action) 6mm The M1 carbine (cocking action) 8mm
The M1 carbine (GBB) 6mm The M1 carbine (GBB) 8mm
The M2 carbine 6mm The M2 carbine 8mm

My hope is that marushin has improved their products such that durability has been upgraded from previous years models.
