(This is kinda a note to myself that I 'must buy these'!) More good news from the CYMA camp is that they are about to release even more Kalashnikovs. After their recent replicas of the contemporary looking AK-105 models, they have decided to go 'old school' with some nice real wood models - a very tasty looking AKM and a early AK74 model.

Additionally, like fellow 'cheapsoft' Chinese manufacturer Kalash (Boyi), they are upping the antsy by manufacturing in steel now! Classic Army, TM and VFC must be quaking in their collective boots! 

I am already interested in buying one of the CYMA  AK-105s (CM0.31D, folding stock model), and now really fancy an AKM to finish off my AK collection!

Another unrelated item that caught my eye, this time from Mad Bull Airsoft, is a rather nice FN style flash hider. I have the Classic Army SA58 ('Baby FAL'), and have always hankered for a proper FN style flash hider for it to replace the hideous American M4 birdcage type it comes with. So this is now also on my shopping list.

My only concern is how I am going to be able to afford all this new stuff!
