The WA2000
 
I know some of you may know of this weapon, and some may not. But because I like to ask questions, I'll ask this one.

Have any of you ever seen this beauty in your airsofting days?

candyman built one in the UK. as for in Canada, i dont think they exist.

To build one right from scratch is a helluva feat. That's pretty amazing.

so very, very pretty :(

There was one on wgcshop.com priced for like 1000 USD so pretty much the same as getting a Systema. But i think they are discontinued now.

Waaaaaaaaay back in the day of pre-electric airsoft there was a Japanese custom gun maker (Asahi) who made a compressed-air version that was full auto. They were a small production run (250, I believe) and are incredibly expensive (several thousand dollars US) IF you can find one for sale. As far as I know, there's only 1 in North America,owned by a guy on classicairsoft.net forums. It's kind of the Holy Grail of Airsoft, along with the Asahi M40A1 (which is also discontinued and was confiscated in large numbers by the Japanese police because of these ease with which they could be/were altered by Japanese gangs to fire live ammo).

/airsoft history lesson for today

It was in Rogue Spear so very many years ago :D

Relja April 26th, 2008 23:43

and Hitman which popularized it. RS one costs 75000+.

Mmmm....such a sexy gun. I wish there was a realistic way to get an airsoft version.

The_Decider April 27th, 2008 00:49

Yes very cool >>>Agent 47

SDS_ShooterMcGavin April 27th, 2008 00:56

IMO thats hideous.

stoo_ped April 27th, 2008 01:24

i've always wanted one of those as well... to the point where i've thought alot about how i could possibly build one. My idea starts with the internals either a fn2000 a Aug...or perhaps some other bullpup rifle.

i think this would be an awesome collectors piece to have

An AUG might work. Personally, I'd Try it with a more compact mechbox, like a version 6, out of a P-90 or Thompson. It just looks like it would be eaiser than fitting a motor into the oddly shaped pistol grip on this thing.

I was thinking a famas would be a better base (mainly because of the way the magazine sits in the WA2000)

In any case, check out the vid for a construction montage.
