Mister Moro goes over the features of the Tanaka M40A1 Black (Cartridge Type) gas powered bolt action rifle in this Hyperdouraku review. The Tanaka M40A1 Gas Sniper Rifle, Cartridge Type Version 2, is a high-performance, gas-powered sniper rifle that is a 1/1 scale replica. It features a bolt action mechanism with a full metal bolt system. The body of the rifle is made of polymer and comes with a rubber stock pad for added comfort.
Hyperdouraku goes into a review session again and this time it's the newer version of the Tanaka Works M40A1 Air (Air Cocking Airsoft Sniper Rifle) whereas before they had the shell-ejecting version. This has a new bb-feeding system with the magazine having a capacity of 27-rounds and it also has a top Picatinny rail for mounting optics and the bolt handle has been designed not to hit the scope when it's flipped up.
Back to airsoft sniper rifles again for RA Tech does some shooting tests with the WE ACE VD GBB and a "cracked" VSR-10 which of course has undergone some RA Tech customisation. Which one is more accurate from a distance of 30 metres whilst mounted on bipod (thought the VSR-10 is fired scoped)? Watch the video below:
