Desert Storm (FDE)
Model Description
For a period, ATI and RW minis had a partnership with GoatGuns where they sold models that came from GoatGuns factory. It is hard to find anything on these models, most of what we have, we learned from discussing it with the GoatGuns community. Thankfully Anthony of GoatGuns backed up some of it. It looks like the FDE Desert Storm model was likely out first and when they released the Camo model then rebranded the name of the FDE model to Dust Off, we have also seen videos of a Camo Desert Storm model unboxing from back when they had GoatGuns and the model's name printed onto the stand. As of right now, the only thing we can tell you is my Desert Storm FDE model came in an ATI mini box.
Just like the model Dust Off, this one is a flat dark earth tan and black color combination. The round handguard. receiver body, grip, and SOPMOD stock are all tan except for hardware, trigger, selector switch, mag release, etc. the remaining components and stand are all black. This model has some functionality like eject-able magazine with dummy rounds, adjustable selector, pullable trigger and the dust cover opens with pulling the charging handle, but it does not have shell ejection.
Besides the Packaging and the Sticker that comes along with it, this model and Dust Off are virtually identical.
