Interesting...might have to pick one up. I mean, because it's so "ugly." Hopefully, HFC will stray away from their MAC-11 design and perhaps add to the small list of skirmish/user worthy guns that are in production. I googled a search for "HFC T77" and "HFC T77 airsoft" with no results. In that case, I would assume a release or U.S. available release are a far away thing. |

| Looks to me like a Mac10, with uzi-styled folding stock, and a plastic foregrip. Looks pretty crude, but then again, the Mac WAS designed as a crude weapon as well, but its not that bad. Pretty interesting gun. Any idea on the price when it hits stateside? |

If it hits stateside at all... On the Taiwanese site, the seller is offering the T77 for 6000 Taiwanese dollars. A WA 1911 wll run the same amount, while a HFC metal Beretta or KWC CO2 Sigma 40F will command about 4000 Taiwanese dollars.
I'd say the T77 will command about $180 or so...
It might not look that bad with a suppressor on it. Lets hope HFC built the T77 around a MAC-10 sized frame, and not the diminutive MAC-11. |

That is the most sad disgusting thing I've ever had the displeasure of seeing. The "rare" MP5 off eBay with the backwards mag is more aesthetically pleasing.
I'm selling me HFC Mac11 as of right now. $35, needs a new mag. |

I like the way it looks. You gotta take off the wierd handguard, but it looks easily removable. After that, you get a full metal co2 powered mac-10/11 (dunno, it's got a longer barrel than the KWA Macs, it looks more like the real macs I've seen) that looks great. I'm not too keen on the way the regulator sticks RIGHT OUT THE MAGAZINE, but from the looks of it, a remote type set-up with that doesn't seem bad.
This looks pretty cool.
By the way, this is on the front page of HFC's site, so I'm guessing it'll be here soon. |

| I'd buy it, take the stock off and slap it onto a TMP, and then sell the HFC for parts. |

| It's way too long, it looks almost uzi-like instead of a Mac-10. |

Look, it's actually a real gun in use by the Taiwanese Army that HFC is copying. I think it's even cooler now. |

| I'd guess the external co2 capabilities are somewhat nice... but wait a sec, holy damn, look how that big co2 tank comes right below the mag on the gun. HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO hold it right. |

| Looks like you just use that to fill the mag. You could probably remove it after the mag is full. Maybe. |

It looks similar, but not really all that close...  |

Am I missing something, or am I the only one seeing this clearly?
It looks to be a green gas powered SMG with the option to connect that CO2 regulator onto the bottom of the magazine for use with 12g CO2 powerlets. |

I missed that one, this is the one I was referring to:

Either way, it still looks to be a green gas powered SMG with CO2 options. |

If it is based on a real gun, then the HFC T77 is significantly cooler than it was before... It isn't Ho Feng's fault the gun is ugly as hell.
I thought it was going to be a fictional gun along the lines of the Dark Hawk.
