    Gmek aficionados, I heard a little rumor...

    I guess DW posted this on Instagram the other day. I saw this screenshot on Facebook.

      Lotus will be happy, as he wanted to do something similar. I offered to assist him with the project, and Siress also offered some assistance, but ultimately the project seems to have fallen apart. If DW releases a hAir 45 for the GMEK, it would be moot anyway.
      I can haz feedback?
      If I owe you feedback, just remind me, as I sometimes forget.

        does make me wonder if that lit a fire, though we only made it about 25% of the way I'd guess.

        I followed that thread with intent.

        I just hope DW isn't pulling my leg, here.

        The gmek is already faster than I generally shoot, but I’d still get one lol

          So.... put a mech frame on an electro to make it slower and then want a lighter trigger pull to make it faster.

          Heh?

            You're not wrong, Jordan, but I just want straight semiauto. I prefer mech, but if I can make that trigger pull even better, then I'm all for it. If you play rec with any electro, they're going to cap you at 10.2, which is usually fine. But if I can physically and mechanically shoot faster than that, I'm all for it. Even if my opponent can outshoot me, I'm all for it. Just don't be a douchebag on the field. That's my only rule. No need to light up newbies.

            Kind of like taking an electric autococker frame, pulling out all the electric bits, and installing a MSV-2... hey wait a minute!

          It's not about a faster ROF for me. I just like minimal delay between my brain saying 'fire' and it actually happening.

            quite a few people here can attest to how deadly my fast reaction time can be.....after they'd started walking off the field. (sorry again, guys...)

                Dude SAME. Heck, I've been waiting since they teased it for the Automag back in like 2002. Lol. And I love the Gmek slider so much that I just can't bring myself to replace it with an Emek or m170r.

              Gah, had a teammate offer to buy my GMek after he used it at ICC/Montressor, but now I want to keep it if this is happening. Hell, this almost makes me want to seek out another one.

                I have a clear dust Gmek, but now I'm wanting a camo "woods all" Gmek for good measure. Especially if this comes to fruition.

                Chuck, we were at the Montressor classic a few weeks ago in Illinois, not the Pittsburgh Open Classic that went on this past weekend.

              I might pick one up to try if this actually drops. I love sliders even if it’s a lil slower than my emek.

                The only thing after this would be a trigger that has either pre-travel or activation point adjustment. I'd be happy with either, and I think that's very easy to do. Hell, I might just mod the stock trigger to get it where I want it after this valve comes out.

                This valve better make it to market...

                  Making decent progress on this. Abusing the prototypes and so far so good! Be looking for news within the next week or two..​​
