and some nice Chinglish of this Walther LP300 copy


Purely being designed as precision fire exclusive use of the BB bullet the is KSC AP/GP series. The cutting part and the precise press technology by the NC machine which KSC makes proud it was introduced not to spare, the pure ' sport shooting gear which exceeds the concept of the toy cancer/gun ' it completed. The AP series has adopted the air domesticated fowl and animals pressure system due to the manual pumping, the vibration of former air cocking type was banished. In addition in order that one bodily sensation of the shooter is pursued, it has become the real specification which adopted numerous adjustment function to the trigger, the sight and grip, etc. approaches to the actual gun air pistol.

Scott when are you going to start carrying these airguns that are "designed as precision fire" after all they "exceeds the concept of the toy cancer/gun":P.

I still think you should start selling those shooting rocks, because they "give off good vibrations to your organism".

I can only assume that Walther had the chinese making parts for them and the other two haven't , this is usually what happens, they make one part for you and ten for themselves.

That has to be the most extensive review I've ever read.

Seems that it's the same as this one:

http://www.carl-walther.info/dev2/index ... oduct=1040

I wonder exactly what kind of market there is for this kind of thing. i've always thought of airsoft enthusiasts as the kind that want all the "tactical" looking gear?

I also wonder how can they produce something like these for such a price as there seems to be plenty of detail in them. Why cant someone make an entry level PCP 10m pistol for 300 euros?

Lots and lots of them available used in Europe. Air pistols do not age that much.
As to new guns, the only one suitable for good entry level to advanced (state championship participation) level, that I could think of, might be one of the Röhm Twinmasters, but even they are above this price limit.

Airsoft "Match" Pistols

Post by R.E. Smalley »

I was thinking of buying one of these because I travel for work 5-6 months a year.

I have an AP, but some states regulate them as firearms. Plus, I think these would be easier to carry in luggage when flying.

Another advanteage is that, if something steals it from my hotel room, it hasn't stolen a real gun.

I don't know how loud they are, or if they are accurate enough for the serious practice that I am direly in need of.

Precision Airsoftguns in Japan

Post by Makoto »

Precision airsoftguns are hugely popular in Japan, where real handguns are banned. You might want to try these sites.

What are the triggers like on these things? Maybe someone could slap a rifled barrel on these pistols for a cheap junior gun?

I thought that too. But, I don't think that they would have enough volume or pressure of compressed air to launch a pellet that weights a lot more than a plastic BB at any kind of useful velocity.
