        2008.04.21 : Clarification of the PTW FPS-Up Kit
We would like to take this opportunity to clarify that our previous news release, "PTW FPS-Up Kit", was indeed intended as an "April Fools' Day" joke.  We will further confirm that as of its writing, there were no plan to offer such "upgrade kit" that allows users to "F-Up" their PTW or Cylinders.  Therefore, please rest assure that your PTW is safe for the moment.  As to many users who e-mailed us asking if we could actually "made it real", the matter is currently "undecided".  One thing is certain though - if we do want to bring this product to life, we will likely have to manufacture and distribute it under the ZShot brand name (not from SYSTEMA Co.), and that a lot of additional research will be required.

Furthermore, I would also like to apologize to anyone who had taken the previous release offensively.  We just realized that many non-English speaking users may not "get the drift" (as the joke could not be easily translated).  In addition, we'd like to publicly apologize to SYSTEMA Co. as well, whereas we've used their product packaging as the background in the original image without obtaining prior approval.  SYSTEMA Co. (Japan) was not involved in our prank and was not aware of the news release beforehand; therefore they have no knowledge of this "product" nor have any plan to offer it in the future.  However, we seems to have caused quite a commotion in the market (especially among those who thought this was real) that some users had mistaken our joke as a "genuine product" offered by SYSTEMA Co. - which is not true.  In light of that, we decided to change the picture in our previous news release to avoid future confusion.

Please do not contact them (SYSTEMA Co.) asking for the "FPS-Up Kit".  Our "fake" little news is solely intended to bring some humor to our life.

Thank you!

        2008.04.01 : ZShot.com Introduces the PTW FPS-Up Kit
Due to popular request, ZShot.com is proud to present the long-awaited FPS-Up Kit for SYSTEMA PTWs!  Have you ever wonder why there is not an "M100" cylinder or "M120" cylinder?  Do you feel like the blue cylinder is a bit too weak, and the gold cylinder a bit too strong?  Do you long for the perfect PTW that gives exactly 400FPS performance, but couldn't find a way to "up" your FPS just slightly?  Your wait is now over! 

With the new "FPS-Up Kit" (F-Up Kit for short), you can now tune each cylinder's output to your heart's content!  The ZShot.com F-Up Kit consists of five (5) precision-made, 1mm thick stainless steel spacers that are custom-cut to our exact specifications. When installed over the base of PTW cylinder's spring guide, the F-Up Kit slightly increases compression (and therefore spring rate) in your cylinder, translating to as much as 10% improvement in muzzle velocity.  This is by far the quickest, cheapest, and easiest way to F-Up your cylinder, bar none!!  Furthermore, you can install anywhere from just one to all 5 of the precision spacers over your spring guide, which gives you lots of flexibility to F-Up your cylinder to different levels. This allows customization never before possible in the history of PTWs.  You can F-Up your PTW however way you want!

This exciting FPS-Up Kit will be available at your PTW dealer starting this week for only $29.95 MSRP. Please do not miss this great chance to F-Up your cylinder collection!

The ZShot.com FPS-Up Kit. Guaranteed to F-Up your PTW!

* Please note that due to the complexity of the PTW cylinder, if you are not comfortable with the disassembly, your trusted SYSTEMA dealers will be more then happy to F-Up your PTW for you. Furthermore, to prevent dirt from entering your cylinder, it is recommended that you please do not F-Up in the field (use common sense).

** Our extensive testing in-house shows that the F-Up Kit is a perfectly solid and safe way for any of our customers to F-Up their PTW(s). Please use it without reservation!! (Warranty void after application.)

*** If you haven't caught on yet, this news release is dated April 1st.

        2007.03.28 : New PTW Accessories Now Available for Pre-Order!
In conjunction with the new release of the M733-MAX, SYSTEMA is pleased to announce two new accessories for existing PTW owners who refuse to miss-out on the latest and greatest!  First item is our brand-new PF-490 motor, using many of the innovations found on the popular Magnum and Turbo motors.  Their initial deployment in the M733-MAX has received rave reviews from users and professional trainers alike, so we decided to release them as upgrade parts for existing PTW owners.  These new PTW motors are divided into two specialized versions: Type-A and Type-B.  Type-A is geared towards extreme performance with the highest possible torque and RPM, whereas Type-B is designed specifically for the mainstream training market where power consumption must be taken into consideration seriously due to possible days-long training exercises.  To read more on the technical details of these exciting motors, please download the whitepaper here.

Second item from the list is a vastly improved collapsible stock butt plate.  Two oversized, spring-loaded retention locks, CNC-machined out of solid aluminum, lock the butt plate in place with absolute authority and zero guess-works.  However, one easy squeeze on the side-buttons will instantly release the butt plate from the stock.  Many of our professional trainers were heavily involved in this design revision, and so far their feedback has been excellent.  Therefore, after much deliberation we have decided to formally release them for competition use as well.  We are sure you will like it.

   

U.S. MSRP for these exciting new products are US$295 for both PF-490 motors, and US$59.95 for the new battery butt plate, respectively.  Please contact your nearest official SYSTEMA dealers as we are already accepting dealer pre-orders!

Key feature of the PTW M733 MAX:
1. Built upon the proven MAX platform with M150 (150 meter/second, ~500FPS) initial muzzle velocity.
