OptimusPrime

CheckSix Airsoft, founded on the summer of 2005 by Cebuano airsoft enthusiasts based in Hong Kong, with shops in Cebu, Philippines, is now taking pre-orders for the Type 97 from Real Sword at US$452.05. The real steel Type 97 is the export version of the Type 95 used by Chinese special forces, and uses the 5.56mm NATO round. The Thais are using a surprising amount of Type 97 LSWs, and the Filipinos are also using them in small numbers.


Description from Real Sword:

Type 97 has a smart shape. In order to have the full same shape and size with real steel, we successfully developed the brand new type 97 gear box to fit in the internal. The gear box makes perfect integration of external and internal! Finally we have reached to the supper realistic AEG. Type 97 is a typical model which reflects RS developing and manufacturing concept and principle. All the efforts we devoted are to supply the wargame lovers and collectors with ultra realistic AEG!
