Hey guys what do you think the price will be for the lm4?

[niko_gpsy]

I have heard something between $340-$380 for the basic M4A1 but don't quote me on it since nothing has been finalized.  And the actual price will not be release until the release of the LM4 line.

[mmmatt312]

I hope they have lots of aftermarket parts like the WA system!

[Dirt Bag]

That's a reasonable price. I was thinking they would be closer to $500.

Real question is, How much will mags cost? If I can get the LM4 P-Mags for cheaper than I could for the Beta Project version for the WOC ($70 a pop) then I may be holding out on my GBBR Build...

Well, I've been waiting for one of these for the past few years. It'll be interesting comparing the kick of the LM4 with that of a real M4.

I'm sure magazines will be expensive. I'm guessing $50+.

I don't really care how much it costs if the hop doesn't suck and the mags don't leak.

It won't and they won't.

These are my educated guesses:
LM4 PTR: $350-$400
LM4 Magpul Edition: Over $400, closer to $500- because of Magpul furniture.
Mags: $50.
Three mag bundle: $150.
Low Power Bolt: $40.
Magpul Pmag: $59- $70.

$350-400 sounds a bit too low to me. My guess would be in high 400's or low 500's.

If a WE's pistols are about $105 on average, and a KWA's least expensive pistol USP is $140, and a WE M4 GBBR's are about $350. The ratio would be having us looking at least at $470, if not, much more.

[Outlaw1995]

greatwatermelon: $470 may be the price for the LM4 Magpul edition gbbr, but certainly not for the lm4. KWA wants to make the price competitive, and while at the same time be making a profit. I stay by my 350-400 estimate.

The AKG may be $450 though.

Not sure how you are certain about the price. It sounds like to me, that you estimating on what you would like to see. I would like to see the KWA gbbr be very affordable, but at the same time, realistically I don't try and have high expectations on a "competitive market" when you don't see a reliable, well performing m4 gbbr running on the market for $350. G&P GBBr's run easily in the $400 range before shipping to US. KSC M4's also run in the $400 range after shipping to US.

But hell, if I'm wrong, I'm not going to be mad.

[Outlaw1995]

You can take this for what it's worth, but allizard told me $350-$400. I'm just saying what he told me. Of course prices are not final- and I could be wrong and KWA could fool us all and charge "an arm and a leg" (as allizard says). LOL still, i'd buy one regardless of price hahaha

[greatwatermelon]

I know what you mean.Regardless of $50-100 difference, my liver will have to go, to help fund for it.
