I asked that question to Redwolf Airsoft on their facebook page ... here is their response: Co2 will be too poweful for Japan and we will most likely never see this gun come to full production.

UPDATE!! I shot an email at Marushin just now, and received and immediate reply. Here it is: Hello, Marushin! I would like to know the latest news about the new M1 Carbine 6mm CO2 in production. I am part of an airsoft community here in the United States and we very excited and eager for the release of this rifle! What is the latest news on it? Any updates on it are welcome! Thank you for your time and please reply to me. Andres I received this reply: Dear Mr. Andres Thank you for your interest and inquiry to our new product. This model will be available in Japan around the end of this month. We would like to export this model but no plan yet. Do you have any idea of wholesaler(importer) who can import such item with big quantity? Best Regards Marushin Kogyo Co.,LTD. Sales department General Manager Kunito Komori 3-9-35, Iizuka, Kawaguchi, Saitama, Japan, 332-0023 TEL: 048-253-1511 FAX: 048-251-0738 E-mail: k-komori@marushin-kk.co.jp Skype: kunitokomori Ahhhh I am so happy Also, stated on the Marushin website, (using a currency exchange website) it turns out that Marushin is going to be selling these carbines for $541.04 and spare magazines are going to be sold for $58.50. That is what Marushin is going to be charging, when airsoft suppliers import them, the price will surely go up. We are probably looking at the high 600's. Also, I translated the symbols around the picture of the M1 carbine (using google translator) and it said that this new version of the rifle is going to be built better with a harder blow back kick and with internals able to handle cold temperatures that the CO2 might cause. Let's hope they come through!

Jesus, if Marushin answered a foreign email, they must really be hurting for sales.

Easy boys...I believe according to the web site that it 134a not co2 and it shoots at 220 to 250 FPS. Yech. Looks nice though. Eliminate the bayonmet lug and change the rear site and it would be very appropriate. Why in the name of a mexican gardner can't someone come out with an AEG carbine? I know... too tiny for any of the existing gear boxes but get creative you manufacturers. Come on!

I went ahead and emailed WGC shop about the gas operating system. I'll post the response when I get it ASAP.

It's H134a and CO2, the CO2 blow back is SEXY! Note:when they're using 134a it's a banana mag. Click for video. And Echo1 Looks to be making a BAR.

It's in the video, it shows it using both. There's also a thread in the wwii gun reviews about the Echo1 bar.

I wonder what kind of FPS that CO2 is getting? I hope it does not rattle itself apart like the older ones. IF not it should be a winner.
