Western Arms (commonly shortened to "WA") is an airsoft gun manufacturer. They primarily manufacture 1911 and 2011 variants, though they do make several Beretta 92 types and have made other types of pistols. Recently, they have added three types of GBB M4 carbine rifles to their lineup of gas powered replicas. Currently, they only produce gas powered blowback replicas, though they have made gas-electric hybrids in the past.
Western Arms' guns generally cost more than other Japanese airsoft manufacturers' GBBs, such as Tokyo Marui. However, in an effort to attract more buyers, they have released a series of MagnaTech pistols, which are priced less than their standard lineup but with slightly reduced quality. Despite the name, the MagnaTech series uses the S.C.W. 3 system.

Famous quotes containing the words western and/or arms:
“For twenty-five centuries, Western knowledge has tried to look upon the world. It has failed to understand that the world is not for the beholding. It is for hearing. It is not legible, but audible. Our science has always desired to monitor, measure, abstract, and castrate meaning, forgetting that life is full of noise and that death alone is silent: work noise, noise of man, and noise of beast. Noise bought, sold, or prohibited. Nothing essential happens in the absence of noise.”
—Jacques Attali (b. 1943)
“And the Pope has cast his arms abroad for agony and loss,
And called the kings of Christendom for swords about the Cross,”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
