I just saw this over at TMC. Should be coming out soon at around $555 USD. Looks like Tanio Koba won't be the only contender.

Magna blowback system etc etc....FPS????

I apologize if this isn't news.

Magna blowback system. . . . .. .. .. is this just a BIGGER old ( but good ) 1911/SV ?

[PAWNO]

I hope the blowback is as good as my old Kokusai CAR 15 was.

If it is just a 1911 or SV in a new skin then the recoil will be crud! cool on a pistol but barely noticable on an armalite I would imagine. Then again it has a bigger mag and therefore more gas per shot, depending on the nozzle and valve set up.

Also I have no clue whether or not the body is metal or plastic, Japan has different rules for larger guns so it could be metal. The Tanio Koba one is all metal but will cost a fortune. Still I'm sure that who ever bought out the tanio copy of the vp70 will do the same with the ak and c8 at a fraction of the price.

At least the WA will have a proper hop up system instead of the over hyped (but under ranged) twist barrels as found on Tanio's stuff.
