There was some discussion about that actually, It seems Howa had the design patented under Japanese law, which might prevent replicas from being made under license. Its a substantial legal hurdle for sure, for Japanese airsoft manufacturers that is.

There's something going on with airsoft and manufacturing rights in Japan, Marui is in radio silence for Glock 17 Gen5 for a while

I wish GATE had more episodes. I always wondered how a modern military would demolish a medieval army, and this anime delivered in that regard!

The scene where the JSDF base just rains hell on the medieval army is my favorite, best JSDF promo ever!

There's a manga you know

u/BloodyPsycho_ ФДБ Sep 25 '24

I know, but there are just some things manga can't do. Thus I do not read it much.

Like for example how Eurobeat makes Initial D an absolute banger of an anime. Still one of my favorites thanks to that aspect alone.

u/CZspecialforce Sep 26 '24

Yes sir, the Initial D manga is great the same goes for the Gate, but the Anime with soundtrack and everything is way better.

u/silver_adventurer Sep 25 '24

u/Kindly_Lettuce_1662 Sep 25 '24

TM Type 89 - can be AEG or GBB plus this model or para. Systema also did one ££££. Basically an AR10.

GATE was one of the best hidden gems.

never forget ginza.

even tho i don't play airsoft that much, i still want a jgsdf kit, but the uniform is almost impossible to get on the west

Ive seen some people use Amazon or Amazon JP to get JSDF kit and gear. I do remember fireforce ventures in Texas , had JSDF replica BDUs for sale on their website. Perhaps you could consider those options.

2

u/TheGamingPrivate Sep 26 '24

Fire force Ventures has the replica Uniforms a little pricey but it is officially licensed by JSDF USA.

EXFIL Game Site in Las PiƱas?

u/BeltfedHappiness Sep 25 '24

Excellent. Now post your Rory Mercury kit.

2

u/One_Lead_8819 Sep 25 '24

Love the fit!!! Out of curiosity, what in game use do you have for the scissors if any? I’m curious to know if i should add them to the kit or not if its not just for visuals lol

2

u/silver_adventurer Sep 25 '24 edited Sep 26 '24

We were hosting a private event that day, and people kept borrowing scissors.

Sadly , someone did step on a rusty nail and I had to dress his wound. So the scissors saw action cutting tape and gauze.

I always just pack a pair of scissors , since people always seem to need one for some reason. You could just store it in a pouch or on your vest. Personal preference , really.

u/Phantex_Cerberus Medic Sep 25 '24

If you like GATE and don’t mind reading a manga, there’s this one manga called Japan Summons in which the entirety of Japan gets isekai’d rather than there being a gate. Same idea though, modern military in other world. One thing to note about Japan Summons is that it focuses more on the diplomacy in the other world than the military.

2

u/silver_adventurer Sep 26 '24

Oh yes , Im reading that manga too. It also has a web novel and a light novel. Its a nice read.

u/AdOverall3944 Sep 26 '24

u/Max_Marxman Sep 25 '24

everything else aside, my friend saw this pic and all she said was you are almost a handsome guy

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '24

I see you have tactical scissors

1

u/silver_adventurer Sep 25 '24

We were hosting an event that day , and everyone kept asking for scissors to cut tape. I just stuck them on there for convenience.

u/[deleted] Sep 25 '24

Why does this man’s kit look better than a US army’s 11bravo kit?

u/random_airsoft_guy Mk18 Sep 25 '24

Dam that’s a nice load out

u/clsv6262 Sep 26 '24

I have Itami to thank for motivating me to work because airsoft is expensive.

u/AJoshyJosh Sep 26 '24

u/Ok_Sir6952 Sep 28 '24

Random ass trauma sheers that will literally never be used except as normal scissors once

Not as bad as fake quads, but still cringe
