This event took\r\n place during the Sengoku Jidai, also known as the Japanese Warring \r\nStates period. Recognizing the potential to arm unskilled conscripts, \r\nthe Japanese realized that training soldiers to use rifles was much \r\nsimpler compared to the extensive training required for traditional \r\nJapanese bows, known as Yumi, which could take years to master. As a \r\nresult, the Japanese embarked on a reverse-engineering process of the \r\npurchased Portuguese rifles. These rifles went on to arm soldiers from \r\nvarious warring states and acquired different names such as Hinawajuu, \r\nTeppo, and, notably, the Tanegashima.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout Airsoft Gun\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe KTW TANEGASHIMA Carbine Air Cocking Rifle is an accurate reproduction of the Tanegashima matchlock arquebus carbine. This particular variant is shorter in length compared to the full-size Tanegashima, as it was designed for use by horseback troops, allowing for easy storage and effortless loading. KTW has done an impressive job in replicating the rifle, utilizing mostly metal components and a real wood stock. The rifle also features a functional wick that can be adjusted in length, and for added realism, the factory has slightly burnt the tip of the wick.\u003cbr\u003eTo operate the rifle, you would need to remove the mock loading stick located under the muzzle, which serves as the magazine for the gun, capable of holding 53 rounds. Next, you would pull the latch under the rifle to cock the gun, followed by cocking the cocking lever before firing. While the presence of a cocking lever and a 53-round magazine may seem unrealistic, the latch is discreetly positioned and hardly visible to those who are unaware of its location. This allows the gun to be skirmishable if desired, although it is primarily designed as a decorative piece to be admired when displayed on a wall.\u003cbr\u003eAdditionally, this rifle features an adjustable hop-up located near the rear sight, which can be fine-tuned using a 3M Allen key. KTW recommends loading the gun with 0.25 gram 6mm BBs for optimal performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKTW TANEGASHIMA Carbine Airsoft Spring Sniper Rifle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1\/1 Scale Arisaka TANEGASHIMA 16th Century (Edo period) Rifle \u003cbr\u003eSpring perated Bolt-Action Airsoft Guns\u003cbr\u003eSuperb Japanese Craftsmanship\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReal Wood Body\/ Stock\u003cbr\u003eMetal Outer Barrel \u0026amp; Receiver\u003cbr\u003e53 Rounds Loading Capacity Magazine (\u003cspan class=\"f12\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003eRemove the mock loading stick, under the muzzle which also act as a magazine for the gun)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMetal Iron Sight\u003cbr\u003eMetal Trigger \u0026amp; Trigger Guard \r\n        \r\n     \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KTW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44527526543588,"sku":"KTW-4571383521025","price":757.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/1325\/2580\/files\/KTW-4571383521018-3e.jpg?v=1705905371","url":"https:\/\/www.ehobbyasia.com\/ko\/products\/ktw-tanegashima-carbine-airsoft-spring-sniper-rifle","provider":"eHobbyAsia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
