Sniper
mania growing stronger As we have now reported,
the TOP and Smokey's are facing tough fight to produce the M82A1
Barret with both setting their release dates for this year
and heavily investing to their manufacturing projects.
Systema
is coming on with their own high-profile project, code named
SIGNATURE. When we recently visited Systema, they demonstrated
to us the developments in this project to manufacture TUBB2000T
as a high-performance airsoft sniper rifle.
They
have actually imported the real gun as de-activated version
(not exactly very easy in Japan) to produce it in maximum
detail. The Airsoft version will feature all the main features
of the real gun and naturally uses the bolt-action BB projection
method.
The release
date is not set yet. What Systema do say is that it will come
out around April or May 2002. The retail price in Japan is
going to be less than 100,000 JPY.
You may
now send us your contact information at sales.tokyohobby@tokyohobby.net
for pre-reservation and e-mailing list. Systema does not produce
their complete guns in great quantities and usually only for
domestic sales, so please hurry if you are looking for TUBB2000T
as a airsoft version.
