Crown Airsoft: AW A180 Blaster GBB

OptimusPrime

With Star Wars craze now on full speed, here is another prop that has its own airsoft replica. Crown Airsoft sends in news that the AW Custom K00 Series A180 GBB Pistol will soon be available at their online store... "In the great movie series, the A180 pistol was a blaster pistol manufactured by BlasTech Industries. It boasted a highly versatile design which could be easily reconfigured into a blaster rifle, sniper rifle, or ion launcher depending on the situation. Used during the reign of the Galactic Empire, one such pistol was wielded by Jyn Erso of the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

This is a replica of A180 from the well know movie series, built with 8” WWII P08 GBB Pistol, suit up with a metal-made Sci-Fi bull barrel front kit. Here it comes!! The 1:1 scale full action A180 Blaster pistol model. Not only good on the fancy look, the 8” P08 pistol gives a 350+fps powerful muzzle power with 0.2g bb follow with the heavy kickback recoil, it really a blaster.

It may be a beautiful mistake. The original P08 is a nice replica model there is no doubt, however, the balance point of the P08 is a little bit over on the grip side just because most of the weights are on the machine parts and the magazine, the beautiful thing is after suit up with the sci-fi kit. It gives a counterweight to the bull barrel, makes the P08 balance point perfectly in the middle. My wild guess is the engineer just intended to make a barrel size look-a-like the movie props, never thinking about the weight's problem and that's a beautiful mistake. "
