hey everyone, does anyone know if there gonna release this kit soon? i got the money and its burnin" a friggin hole thru my cod piece! or anyone got one they want to sell? someone......anyone?.........

Sorry funboy, I skipped over your second post.

You can buy the conversion kit on it's own without the TM Thompson.

I believe it consists of the SPAS cage, shroud, magazine base, barrel vent, stock, and correct hand grip (with the engraved lines). Going price is about $350 to $400 I think. Kinda pricy if you're not interested in an airsoft PR.

I don't think you can split up the kit and buy the parts seperately though.

(not the airsoft version) sorry

I emailed them last year around August. They said the kits would be delayed until November. That obviously fell through.

If it is airsoft you're interested in, the G&P M41-A conversion kit is available from most major AS dealers. Going price built with a TM Thompson is around $600.00 (a fraction of what the AS MIM pulse costs).

thanks sarge, i wasnt really intersted in the air soft version, i kinda wanted the m.i.m. version that could be "upgraded later" can you get the pulserifle parts to the one your talking about seperatly? thanks, Joel

I think what he meant about the MIM kit was the fact that it shipped with solid resin Thompson parts, that could later be swapped with Airsoft parts later.

The G&P/G&G kit doesn't include any Thompson components at all.

i would like something close to the 300.00 range that can be upgraded, eventually to the working airsoft, i dont have any airsoft games or the such near me so i would probably use that version for the possums and stray animals that end up on my porch. (little bast. keep sprayin' on my b.b.q.) i have a spulse rifle (love it) but want to get into something i can build and take apart, add parts, like dean-o's add ons, (gonna get those soon, i hope!) real working counter, you know what i mean? EDIT o.k. out the 2 kits mentioned above, wich would be the best and most accurate for the money? anyone with either of these kits please give some input, likes, dislikes, quality, thanks guys!

thanks guys, so what would be my best bet? sit and wait for the m.i.m. kit, or what would you guys recomend? i really like the looks of the m.i.m. kit any others i should look at to see if they would sway my decision? anything in the u.s. with links or site info would be greatly appreciated!

MIM's been promising a second run of that kit for well over a year now. You can wait, but I wouldn't recommend holding your breath. Currently, here are your options: look on ebay (tenmill and a bunch of others often sell on there); contact Spat about a spulse rifle; look for a icons stunt rifle. Wait for MR to see if they offer one.
All the above suggestions refer to non-functioning kit/props.

If you require airsoft capable, there's the Airsoft Club Pulse Rifle which is more practical but less aesthetically accurate than the GnG/G&P airsoft Pulse Rifles/Pulse Rifle kits.

It comes down to budget, what its intended purpose is for (costuming and wall hanging vs. skirmishing), how pressed you are for time, how accurate it needs to be, and its features.

Once you've got that figured out you can narrow your options.
