Sweetwater "Operator" WA2000 TacMod 00

Lightbox this one.

 

This SPW Walther is a custom order, built for urban combat. Without compromising the aesthetics of the gun itself, Sweetwater machined several replacement components- the goal being to lighten the weapon as much as possible while retaining stability and accuracy, and to compensate for the added weight of the precision barrel. Most of the weight reduction came from a major overhaul of the rear receiver and firing mech area.

 

In lieu of a muzzle brake or flash hider, brake slots were milled into the heavyweight bull barrel for recoil reduction- keeping the overall length of the weapon short and the profile sleek. The furniture is Sweetwater polymer composite with a forward rail and comfy rubberized grip pads bolted into the foregrip. An adjustable bipod replaces the stock one for ease of use in a variety of scenarios.

 

A high-quality SPW Firefly infrared scope completes the package. Made independently from the SPW challenge.
