Badabing's review of the MWS

History

Tokyo Marui Co. Ltd or TM for short has been around since 1965.
TM didn’t release its first toy hobby gun until 1979.
It wasn’t until 1985, they released the Luger P-08 that launches a 6mm pellet.
The industry first gas blowback was released in 1986 with the S&W M59.
It took them until May 2014 to preview the first M4 Gas Blowback. It was showcased in 53rd Shizuoka Hobby Show.
It would be called the M4A1 MWS or Modular Weapons System.
Later released in Dec 2014 due to engineering team making further improvements in performance and durability.
Then later, MWS ZET System was released in late 2015 to further improve upon durability and improved performance.
With nearly 50 years of airsoft experience, TM has always been the golden standard when it comes to the Airsoft Industry.
TM MWS system is only 7 years old, in comparison to other GBBR, systems, TM is late to the game when it comes to GBBR M4 but TM engineering seems to have paid of as the MWS ZET System is very durable, high performance and better quality than other systems.

In this segment, we gather some of the female players and have a round table discussion regarding playing Airsoft as a girl.

In this panel we have Laura, Veronica, Sascha, Tiana and Karmen.

Airsoft has been a male dominated sport / hobby for a while now.  Imagery of masculine has been plastered by the airsoft industry since it is the main clientele from the beginning. War games is labelled as a male oriented sport or event as it mimics or simulates real life war. Similarly, militaries around the world have seen a rise of females in roles and ranks of their organizations. Airsoft is seeing similar trends as well. Femininity is an important aspect of Women of Airsoft, it functions as a direct opposition to the masculine perception of Airsoft. Certain times, femininity is enhanced to remind people that yes, women are playing airsoft. While traditional gender stereotypes have remained constant throughout the years, they have also been challenged and confronted by many females. Airsoft is no exception with females breaking the barrier.  Over the years, Panther Airsoft has seen an influx of females establishing themselves into the sport / hobby.  Thanks to the work of Canadian Association for Advancement of Women and Sport in 1981 (now known as “Canadian Women & Sport”), they advocated for progressive change within Canada’s sport system. This cause a change in society that accepted girls in all levels of sports. Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z girls saw the most changes in female sports. And this applies well to Airsoft.

Summer is here, it’s hot, tempers will flare, lots of GBB out there (go watch the GBB podcast if you haven’t) and HPA clarifications based on TAKs field report findings.
