Varies by state law. You can get an actual M16 (select fire) for about $20k...
Going by $1 to 100 yen (rough, last I checked it's more like $1 = 80 yen), that gun's around $1600... almost as expensive as a semi-auto AR15.
Its actually been 1 USD = 100-110 yen for about a year now. It's currently 1 USD = 104 yen. Regardless, your estimate is still extremely close. It'd be about $1617.
We moved from Okachimachi in the direction of AkihabaraBut some day...!Are you buying it?Ah...Wow...Almost 160k...Sorry for being so expensive.Training weapon shopSpecial priceGuess so.Imizu-san is looking at a training weapon like a boy staring at a trumpet!
Again, this.Woah...That's kind of too much, so I'll pass..."What is a Training Weapon?"Combining high durability and high prices, it's a weapon for training and competitions. Traipon for short. The off-brand electric guns aren't real but are designed with about the same dimensions. Guns are normally counted as "One chou, two chou", but in Traipon's case it's "One pon, two pon".
Chou (挺) is counter for tools and guns.
Pon/Hon/Bon (本) is counter for long, cylindrical objects.
