Would you buy an airsoft stg44 or g43 from g&g, because they told me they might make these specific model airsoft guns if enough people wanted to have one or both of these models and was going to pay for one or each

G43 but I still don't understand why you specifically are tasked with getting popularity for these guns

They're my favorite models I think everyone should be able to enjoy from a good company, and I might have a shot at giving them to you

You do realize that they would literally want thousands of orders for them to make them, right?

Though a G43 would be nice, we FIRST need their garand to come out, then manufacturers to make a cheap K98 before more exotic weapons are released.

Yes and no, yes they need to come out with the m1 first but no in that a g43 wouldn't be a bad thing to come out. Lot's of people would complain about having to use bolties so that may be a turn off for them, however, even they can at least be on par with the garand, they may be more inclined to at least start with a g43.

Heck we need these guns in order before they start making rare ones: M1 Garand, Kar98(non shell ejecting), Lee Enfield(springer), and finally an AEG M1 carbine. Tell them that if they make these guns, there may not be an immediate rush to buy them but as the hobby gains interest BECAUSE of the rifles, they will end up with quite a profit. Make that point because that is all businesses see, projected profits.

Between the two choices (STG 44 and G43) your greatest sales potential is far and above the G43 as none are currently available and there is a lot of pent up dmand and indeed it woulf fill a large void. A FAR FAR bigger void however is a spring powered but capable Kar 98 that doesn't eject shells. An AEG Carbine and the supposedly soon being offered Garand. A $200 to $250 price range should be your target as this would insure a high take rate.

200-250 for the k98? I feel like that would be lower then what G&G normally sells for. Most of their guns are around 300 and up from what I have seen. Not to say it wouldn't happen but it'd pry be a plastic stock or something.

There are already several very good STG 44s available. Why (unless they are cloning their work) would a company want to fish at a small when other fishing lines are already in the water. Why not go to another pond and be the first to fish it by offering the G43. Better still go to a large pond and offer the springer (non shell ejecting) Kar 98. Or a M1 carbine AEG which would have huge appeal.

Why not make an online petition? People who don't frequently visit this site will see it, and sign it. A petition for G&G to make a Lee Enfield got over 100 signatures a while back. A kar98 would have even more appeal, especially as we all know we need it.

Google 'online petition'. There are plenty of sites you can use.

But we need something affordable. A G&G Kar98 would most likely cost more than the redfire, even if it is a springer.

They already make a gas one, so if we nagged them enough, they'd probably make a springer. Still, you may want to petition JG or CYMA as well.

I mean if g&g made a 300$ good quality springer, that would not be that bad imo. obviously not optimal but g&g, from what I have seen, is not a bad company and their quality is pretty good so, 300$'s would be worth it imo

Yup I'll ask em and explain why it would be better to make it more affordable to get more customers their dream gun

I would definitely petition for companies to make a enfield or kar-98 springer. Also what about the idea of the companies making a pre-made kits for each ww2 bolt action to throw a vsr-10 action in. Jg could make a kit up and gain profits because everyone would be buying bar-10s anyway.

I fail to see why a reasonably well done bolt action spring powered replica of a WW2 rifle should cost significantly more then the inexpensive VSR bolt actions or the CYMA M2 carbine that is made. In truth the carbine power would quite be adequate for a main battle rifle but a stronger spring and sufficiently beefed up harware should cost much to design in. A non shell ejecting Springer in the vicinity of the price of the D Boys Kar 98 would be hit. with a little more power and no pesky shells to mess with the D Boys would be a great seller. With its success I imagine an Enfield, Springfield and Arisaka wouldn't be far behind.
An AEG Carbine with authentic lines (unlike the hideous WELL carbine) would be an enormous hit. ICONIC, small in size sutable for many periods it ould sell extremely well. Even the modern "spray and pray CQBers" would probably buy them.

well for one with enough power and fake wood I would estimate around 120-150 range (USD)
