all,

Greasegun from CAW is now on sale.
CAW is 1kg heavier than Hudson before attaching a mag, it weights almost 2.4kg. As some of you might know, Hudson greasegun was bit light and thin in terms of structure, but CAW feels more solid when you hold it. CAW made some alteration around basement of ejector and chamber where Hudson Greasegun known as weak points. I haven't fire yet, I can see this will go well.

Here are some photo for your info.

Got to say the pics look good and i am tempted with this but what price are they selling it at? i think the price might be the problem with this one.

Hi Katsuro
What carts does it now use? is it still compatable with MGC .45acp?
Is trigger group cover (which ejector screws on to) still plastic or now metal?

It would be a truly great gun if all "old" problems are cured:)

Hi,

It is JPY38,000.....I know it is jump from Hudson, but considering some alters and extra weight + current cost of living and price of plastic material, it is something inevitable....


The rounds looks identical with MGC 1911 rounds, wonder if I can use 1911 or Tommy rounds from MGC.

Johnny V, the cover made from plastic still.

This does look good in these photos, CAW's colour choice looks a lot better than the last HW version Hudson made.
The extra kilo weight should make it feel a whole load better too

I can't wait to see one of these production models firing and see exactly what CAW have done to strengthen and improve the chamber.
Does it really fire at a slower, more realistic rate than Hudson's version Question If it does it'll make for one attractive addition to the collection

all,

Here are some photos of what CAW made an improvement over original Hudson structure. Now, as you can see, a chamber been made out of zinc, a det pin been held by a metal plate at the other end (where Hudson held det pin by an insert plate in a barrel). Also, an ejector is now sanded by a piece which do not stress too much on action cover. Those are 2 major weaknesses of Hudson. I have not fired yet, but surely these improvement raise CAW Greaseguns's durability.

Regards,

S

Here are the videos by CAW:
