City of Industry, CA – September 18, 2009 – KWA USA is pleased to announce the release of KWA’s second-generation KM4/16 AEG rifles with the addition of four new models. The second-generation rifles feature over 30 structural improvements and performance upgrades, making them the top choice for professionals and serious enthusiasts.

At the heart of every new KM4/16 series rifle is KWA’s Second Generation Extreme (2GX) gearbox, designed to resist cold temperature failures. Structural reinforcement has been engineered into the shell strengthening the overall integrity of the gearbox especially in areas prone to failure. The new 2GX comes standard with six 9mm Spherical Bearings and Heat-Treated Precision Gear Sets offering flawless performance in all conditions.

Accuracy of the new rifles has been greatly enhanced with the introduction of the 2G High Performance Bucking. The new bucking utilizes a set of uniquely designed “Fins” that produce remarkable consistent performance shot after shot. All KWA inner barrels are now manufactured in Japan using the latest machining technology resulting in exceptional quality and increased performance.
