Marukoshi Airsoft?

Hiya

Has anyone ever heard of this company before?

I just picked up a used spring rifle made by this company for 40 bucks, seems powerful and solid ( heavy as a mofo too )

Anyway, just curious as I have found very little information on them.

Thanks!

The company is long-dead. Circa late-80's, I believe.

You probably got a family heirloom.

let me guess its the super 9?

Wow, well if this thing is actually 25 years old it doesn't show it at all.

I picked it up from a classified add, the guy wanted 50 I offered 40 ( thinking it was the UTG )

When I got it home, I instantly realized that this was no UTG and started to feel sorta bad for not giving him the extra 10 bucks.

LOL

Edit: Yes it is a super 9.

Mmmm Vintage airsoft, you could proably get a lot more than $50.00 for it now I bet lol.

They dont really sell for overly large amounts on yahoo japan. I have seen them go for the 80-100 range. I know of atleast one person in the states who would probably buy it. Classic guns are awesome. I just recently spent a shit load on a lrb.

I sold someone on here a Marukoshin AUTOMAG that was an over-sized replica. I forget who, but the quality was top notch.
