| Just picked up two of these for our close protection officer training, would anyone on the forum be interested in a review or few pics of these in action? Bob | |

| Go ahead, there's never too many reviews :-)
RAMs are quite interesting, they seem to me to be oversized (internally) GBBs. Just like many recent GBBs they run on CO2 cartridges. Projectiles are much larger than airsoft bbs, and there is a choice of rubber, paint or powder ones. Rubber is the obvious choice for safety training I guess, while paint makes these behave more like paintball markers. Compressed powder seems the most interesting and less usual.
Which models do you have? | |

| I will try to upload photos later, we normally use a mixture of airsoft and blank fireing weapons for training but we now have in our resources an AK47,M4 and 4 Sig pistols, complete with the rubbber and powder projectiles, each is loaded into a small alloy case which is ejected with the weapon action.Cycling and recoil are very authentic and they are identical in weight and looks which is important to us as a training provider. Photos and write up to follow. Bob | |

| I've got at least one version of the M4 and a pair of MP5s of theirs, which I've used for props. The casings don't look right if you see them up close, and ditto with the ejection port, but if it's just things flying by you can't tell. They feel nice- sturdier than most airsofts. The MP5 magazine is flared a bit, which is odd- wider at the base than at the top.
In case anyone else is wondering like I was, they do cycle fine without the projectile.
