Differences between KWA MP7 and KSC MP7s?

wasteisland · April 27th, 2010, 20:55

So there are three versions of this gun. I thought the KWA Umarex model was superior to the KSC Taiwan made model. After browsing airsoftglobal.com I see that the Japanese KSC version is more expensive than the KWA version..

Could somebody clarify why for me?

the only difference I know is that the KWA is reinforced for propane use, maybe its cheaper because its not got full trademarks or something? i dont know/care

There are 4 versions as far as I know of the mp7
KSC Japan : Plastic bolt and under 330 fps
KSC Taiwan : Propane ready, metal bolt and over 400 fps
KWA USA : Propane ready, metal bolt and 350-380 fps
KWa Germany : same as KWA usa version but semi only

Sounds like the KWA USA is what I want to go for. Propane ready is vital to me! I better be positive I am ordering the right model if I decide to order one.

I watched a really nice and long review on this gun by Red Dragon Airsoft. Anyone have experience with it? I want to be able to throw it at a tree and be confident it still works flawlessly (not that I intend to actually do that.) At around $600 I want to be confident this thing is worth every penny.

Being plastic bodied and pot metal internal, its not likely it'll survive if you really abuse it. But its a nice piece. Shoots fast, accurate and makes a loud bang.

I think if you take good care of the gun there shouldn't be any problems. The materials used is tough.
