TOKYO MARUI M40A5 FDE STOCK BOLT ACTION SNIPER RIFLE

  • Coming soon: JPY42,800

Curiously, we see some “Prototypes” showing mainly some concept bullpup rifles, and pistol, and the stock for what looks like a bolt action sniper rifle with a folding skeletal stock. If they are indeed planned airsoft guns by the company, then we are absolutely excited in looking forward to their eventual production. Or they can just be display designs to show the creativity of their product development team in airsoft gun design.

The newly released airsoft guns, the MTR16 Gas Blowback Rifle and the P90 Ver.LLENN AEG are on display as well for visitors to check out. The P90 Ver.LLEN is just a limited release so if you are planning one, better buy one or reserve one at your favourite retailer before they are all gone.

On display too also are the Glock 19 Gen 3 Gas Blowback Pistol which will be released next month and the planned Springfield V10 Ultra Compact 45 Gas Blowback Pistol.
