Rockape Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Firstly, hello to all of you. Afraid i'm not into Airsoft recreationally, but we do have a large collection of Airsoft weapons for work as training aids. Yes, we actually get paid to do it!! I'm hoping someone on here can help me out. I'm after an L1A1 SLR to be mounted as a leaving present for a long serving colleague. We cannot stretch to the £400 odd quid for a de-activated, so are investigating the airsoft route instead. I have searched many of the Airsoft retailers websites but as yet haven't found one. Does anyone know a company who sells this weapon? Obviously it will have to be metal cast and look the part. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Link to post Share on other sites
antz Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 I think a L1A1 was once produced (I think by JAC or Asahi) but i've never seen one. Try ebay. Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt Craig Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Aye, the only other one i can think of is the NGW, but its about £600 so a de-act is probably your best bet unfortunatly. Link to post Share on other sites
antz Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Also the one I mentioned. the one I think exists, I think is mainly plastic. Link to post Share on other sites

Rockape Posted August 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Guys, thanks very much for the help, much appreciated. Looks as though it may be a problem, surprising really, i would have thought the British forces' previous rifle would have been a popular weapon. Thanks again. Tony. Link to post Share on other sites

Kousnik Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Howdy there, i thought my 200th post should be in the same section as my first (isn't that nice....) Anyway, i do beleive someone (from the USA) is selling a L1A1 in the Auctions section of the site, if its of any use to you. Link to post Share on other sites
