Walther WA2000?

[orlando5]

Am I correct to assume that she is carrying a Walther WA2000 rifle?

 

[Victor Romen]

You would be safe to assume that.

has anybody ever have a chance to shoot one of these? It looks really purdy.

hmmm...

seems to me that bullpup + lefty (like me) = searing pain.

Would this picture be from an anime I've heard of called "Gunsmith Cats" or something like that?

It might be awhile before you find someone who has fired one of these. There aren't many in the county, and they are un-Godly expensive.

Around $25K the last time I checked.

Yeah, that's Rally Vincent from Gunsmith Cats with a 2000. The photo is actually from the manga and not the anime. The only problem with the mangas are that more often than not, the images have to be flipped as the Japanese read right to left. To keep the frames of the manga to flow right for the US readers, the images have to be flipped. Rally does shoot right handed but through the translation, she is shooting lefty and the gun (and everything else) is a mirror image.

Here's my fave photo of RV :

Yeah that's Gunsmith Cats. Very fun to read.

You can get the manga (comic) from http://darkhorse.com/. Get the trade paper back.
