S&T Armament Nambu Type 100/40 Submachine Gun AEG (Real Wood - STAEG116BRW)
Want to buy a realistic-looking black airsoft gun (RIF) from onlyBBguns? Because these guns look so real, UK law (the VCRA Act) requires you to have a valid reason, called a "defence," to own one. Essentially, you need to prove you're buying it for airsoft skirmishing (the sport itself), not for any other purpose.
Here's how you can demonstrate your defence to onlyBBguns and buy a black airsoft gun:
- Show proof of skirmishing: Gather evidence like photos and videos from airsoft games you've participated in. These should clearly show you actively involved in skirmishing, demonstrating your intent to use the gun for the sport.
- Become a registered skirmisher: The easiest way to prove your defence is by joining a recognized airsoft association and getting a membership card. The most common one in the UK is UKARA. This registration confirms you're a legitimate airsoft player.
Don't have either of those? No problem! You can still buy the airsoft gun. onlyBBguns can paint it in a two-tone colour scheme. This means part of the gun will be sprayed a bright, non-realistic colour. This makes the gun a "non-realistic imitation firearm" and avoids the restrictions of the VCRA Act. Anyone over 18 can legally buy a two-tone airsoft gun.

Bring authentic historical craftsmanship and distinct tactical style to your airsoft collection with the S&T Armament Nambu Type 100/40 Submachine Gun AEG (Real Wood - STAEG116BRW)! Engineered to replicate the early/mid-production variant of the Imperial Japanese Army’s main submachine gun, this airsoft replica provides WWII reenactors, militaria collectors, and skirmishers with a unique, field-ready platform that stands out from standard modern rifles.
Authentic Real Wood Stock & Full Metal Build The foundation of the S&T Type 100/40 is its high-grade real hardwood stock, finished in a rich, dark vintage stain that highlights the natural wood grain. Symmetrical ergonomic contours ensure comfortable shoulder positioning and balanced weight distribution. Complemented by a full-metal receiver, outer barrel assembly, top-mounted rear flip sight, and the iconic perforated barrel cooling shroud, this AEG delivers an exceptionally realistic feel and durable construction capable of handling field skirmishes.
Unique Side-Feeding Layout & Integrated Folding Bipod Staying true to the original 1940 Nambu design, this replica features a left-side-mounted magazine well housing a curved steel magazine. This side-loading architecture allows operators to maintain an extremely low profile while shooting from a prone position. To enhance stability during long-range static fire, the Type 100 is equipped with a fold-away steel bipod mounted directly beneath the barrel shroud, which securely clips under the stock when not in use.
Field-Ready Custom Gearbox & Performance Internals Beneath its historical exterior, the S&T Type 100/40 houses a custom full-metal AEG gearbox engineered to fit within the slim stock profile without sacrificing mechanical reliability. Paired with a fully adjustable hop-up assembly, it provides consistent BB backspin for straight flight paths and tight groupings. Powered by a standard battery stored conveniently inside the buttstock, it shoots in semi-automatic and full-automatic firing modes with a velocity suitable for both outdoor fields and close-quarters environments.
Whether you are building out a period-accurate Imperial Japanese loadout, adding a rare WWII center-piece to your display wall, or seeking a unique side-feeding submachine gun for game day, the S&T Armament Nambu Type 100/40 Real Wood AEG delivers the ideal combination of historical realism and solid performance.

Two tone
We can two tone any weapon we sell at Bespoke Airsoft. The purpose for two toning is if you do not hold a valid defense under the Violent Crimes Reduction Act (VCRA, 2006) which is to prevent the misuse of Replica Weapons, which applies in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The gun will be sprayed 51% in a bright/primary color (we do only blue, green and red currently). The process of two toning currently runs at 2 working days depending on Drying Time, which is effected by Ambient Temperature and Weather. and currently no express delivery is available for this even if you select it at checkout.

FAQs
1. What is a BB gun used for? BB guns are mostly used for practice shooting and training. The stronger ones (i.e. Air Rifles) can also control pests or hunt small animals.
2. Do you need a Licence in the UK for a BB gun? No, you don't need a licence for a BB gun in the UK, but there are rules. The BB Gun needs to be in two colours; one has to be a primary. All our guns are on the website as per default.
3. Is a BB gun a good weapon? BB guns, despite sometimes being seen as toys, can be dangerous. They fire pellets at high speeds and can cause serious harm, or even be deadly in some situations.
4. Can you shoot BB guns in public in the UK without a Firearm license? BB guns in the UK navigate a legal grey area. While certain models, notably low-power 'soft air' types, typically evade classification as section 1 firearms, more potent versions may require a valid firearms certificate to avoid legal repercussions.
5. Can you shoot a BB gun in your garden? You can use a BB gun in your garden under UK law, but you have to ensure the pellets don't go into your neighbour's yard, plot or land. If they do and you don't have permission, it's against the law.
6. Which UK law am I breaking if the pellets go into my neighbour's law without permission? If your BB gun pellets go into your neighbour's yard without permission, you're breaking UK laws. Specifically, the 1968 Firearms Act and possibly the 2003 Anti-Social Behaviour Act, because you may be causing your neighbours trouble or worry.
