Komatsu Wooden Replica Guns
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 4/19/2018 | J Hines

I came across Komatsu Ltd from his custom Multicam samurai armor (shown above). While looking for more information about the custom Cordura armor, I discovered a treasure of stuff. Komatsu had documented some of the build of this custom sewn armor along with an amazing body of work in wooden gun replicas.

We have seen wooden replica guns in the past. Splinter Sell made some HK guns and FN SCARs. Then there is AK47 shooter and his giant AK made of pallet wood.
Take a look at this FN SCAR MK20 in the photos below. That isn't an airsoft gun. It is made of wood!


Closer inspection you can see it was hand carved and shaped.

Here is his S&W M&P Shield. There is a certain amazement and yet there are small details he is missing. Such as the lack of slide serrations and markings. See the rest and video of Komatsu wooden guns here.

I’m curious. Is this the same Komatsu who hand carves wooden phonograph cartridges?

I’d get one but I can’t find any 20 matchstick magazines to go with it!
