It's so rare because the Japanese police found that organized crime rings were buying them because they could be retrofitted to fire real bullets. There are a few in the hands of collectors outside of Japan, but in Japan the police confiscated and destroyed any they could find.

Also, Asahi made a special finned projectile (sort of like a blunted lawn dart) for these that was apparently much more aerodynamically stable.

This happened a long time ago. Chill out.

Also, I feel like Japanese mafiosos doesn't give a shit if they are ruining your game for you.

It was the most amazing airsoft sniper there was. Pics of the gun and the special bbs here

Impossible to find, most of them were destroyed. Its stated that you could fire a .22 cal round without any modif to the gun. Used some type of cartridge where you pumped air into it and then put the bb's on top, load them like real steel and fire away. If only I could put my hands on one of those I would be greatlyt happy.

You don't know them like I do. Sometimes they sneak into my house and wear my underwear. Other times they nail all the rugs to the ceiling and plug up the toilets. They are diabolical and every move they make while seeming to harmless or nonsensical is all part of a master plan executed with clockwork precision. Very much like this post I've just typed. Or was it me, was it them again at my computer while I was microwaving a burrito?
