Fans of B&T rifle replicas should definitely be interested in products from Maruyama Airsoft. This manufacturer focuses mainly on gas-powerd replicas of B&T products and already has SPC9 and SCW9 replicas in its offer.
During this year's MOA fair, a new MP9 replica was presented. It is made in its own standard and uses magazines compatible with the above-mentioned replicas. The MP9 replica itself is made of polymers and has a characteristic muzzle device for mounting silencers, a top rail and (in the version shown) a vertical grip.
The SPC9 and SCW9 are PCC/SMG designs with an aluminum receiver and a polymer lower receiver.
Depending on the trigger configuration used, it is possible to use dedicated shared magazines from the MP9 or Glock magazines in the Vega Force Company standard. Additionally, they are adapted for both right and left-handed users thanks to the use of double-sided manipulators and a ambidextrous charging handle at the rear of the receiver, similarly to the AR-15, and in the handguard like the MP5.
Fans of smaller designs or concealed carry may be interested in the folding FMG9 design, a replica of the iconic design Folding Machine Gun 9 (FMG) made by the American company Magpul.
From the full-size designs, a gas-powered replica of the IOS 223 rifle was presented, i.e. a full-size B&T APC223 rifle chambered in 5.56x45 mm ammunition in the original. The entire design, like the SPC9, has an aluminum upper receiver and a polymer lower receiver, but it is equipped with a folding stock in the ACR style, a charging handle located on the receiver and an M-LOK handguard.
