KWA HK45- Setting the Standard for the Next Generation

Who has seen that movie “The Book of Eli”? If you have seen that movie, the USP looking pistol Eli (Denzel Washington) was using was actually a Heckler & Koch HK45.

Everyone has been anticipating the KWA LM4 since the announcement was made at the 2010 SHOT Show. I did not had the chance to check out the prototype until SHOT Show 2012.

I began to dissect and analyzed it piece by piece. Needless to say, I was quite impressed by how accurately the KWA LM4 P.T.R (Professional Training Rifle) controls operate in comparison to an AR-15 weapon system.
