From arnies; the kj m4 review thread:
[quote name='Raven1' date='Sep 15 2009, 08:17 AM' post='2180853']
My girl is Japanese, she just translated the page for me.

The Statement Reads,

Tanio Koba Factory will make the guns for sale in Japan and Taiwan Only.
This is due to the strict safety regulations / laws in Japan that must be adhered to regarding replica or in Japanese terms 'Hobby Gun.'

KJW will make the 'Export' guns for the rest of the world. The 'Export' guns will not be warrantied by Tanio Koba but ONLY by KJW.

The Tanio Koba Manufactured guns that will only be for sale in Japan & Taiwan will be warrantied by TK.

I agree that Quality Upgrade parts are being made by Japanese Manufacturers is a Great Thing!

LayLax is already on board and from what we saw on the TK website there are different stocks, grips, RAS / RIS Kits, 10.5" - 14.5" - 16" barrels, Tight Bore Inner Barrels to match are being made and will be available on the guns release in late October.

Japanese Brands like First Factory, LayLax, Prometheus, Nine Ball, Nitro V are affiliated with Tanio Koba 'Hobby Guns' and collectively make after market up grade parts such as seals, M4 front sets, TBBs for the VSR (Which the TK M4 uses) etc.

Great News Indeed!

my emphasis on the last part. hopefully in a few months time there will be upgraded internals for sale. i did hear that kj will sell spare parts through their website.

I have a feeling that the Koba rifle in japan will be plastic lower (if not all plastic) in following their laws, which is why kj started producing plastic lower recievers.

Any word on mag compatibility yet?

That would be a pretty big deciding factor for me

Theguy, how do you expect to get one of these, without age verification?

[Mitchell12]

Stupid ASC won't let me use code tags to preserve formating? Gay as balls on your breakfast.

Its TK/ KJW unique. Unless RA-Tech supports the TK I'm not gonna dip into it

[Erennert]

Oh i see. Good luck :P For me, i'll stick to an AEG.

The gbbr market is still pretty new...not so long ago, WA released their gbbr system, but it had loots of problem and need at least 300-1k$ worth of internal upgrade to works flawlessly.
Then WE came out with their own system wich some call more reliable....( maybe?!) , but one problem still remain with those 2 platforms... The cooldown factor/effect, wich reduced fps and ROF (and may also be responsable for parts breaking....( metal doesnt like cold... ( at least the lower quality metal in chinese guns... :S).

And now KJW was able to limit the cooldown effect, with another system....

Next VFC is supposed to release their own Gbbr line too! (SCAR, SPR, M4!)

So I would wait at least a year before buying a gbbr, now we have too many "beta" gbbr on the market, nothing 100% reliable yet.... So I would wait and watch them evolve!

OK..... The quote tags didn't format properly. I thought you were quoting the translation not quoting another guy who did the translation.
