LA Gunshop have posted details of the Tanaka S&W M500 release, although the photo does look very much like a real S&W I’ve not known LA Gunshop post pictures of a real firearm in their news section before. Priced at 20,790Yen (on offer at 14,533Yen) it’s set for release at the end of February and comes with the rubber (Hogue replica) grip.
Someone did ask about the Marushin M1 Garand as to if it’s NBB or GBB; on the LA GunShop page the new M1 has been designated GAS-BLK (not GAS-BK) which signifies that they are listing it as a gas blowback model. Oh, there’s also some shots of the new WA Wilson SDS and SCW MEU (seen above) both are otu late February.
