Introduction
The venerable "Type 89 5.56mm rifle (fixed stock type)," Japan's very own domestically produced assault rifle, has received a remarkable upgrade. Tokyo Marui has introduced a gas blowback version, elevating the experience to a new level. This cutting-edge rendition includes an exclusive "3-burst mechanism" for the first time and features the same engravings and left-side selector lever found on the current model. The result is a remarkable fusion of form and function, mirroring the real counterpart in terms of weight and texture.
 
In Japan, the journey of research and development towards the domestic production of firearms commenced in the late 1950s. By 1964, a significant milestone was achieved as the Type 64 rifle earned official adoption by the Self-Defense Forces (formerly known as the Police Reserve). It marked the inception of domestically manufactured assault rifles, specifically designed to align with the physical attributes and strength of the Japanese populace.
 
The primary focus during its development lay in enhancing real-world firing performance, emphasizing ease of use and precision. Subsequently, a pivotal shift occurred with the establishment of the 5.56mm x 45 caliber bullet as the new NATO standard ammunition.
 
This transition prompted the creation of the Type 89 rifle, succeeding the Type 64 model. The Type 89 rifle, tailored for the Japanese market, features reinforced plastic components that contribute to its compact and lightweight nature. Notably, it delivers improved operability and boasts a more contemporary aesthetic. The sophistication of its operational system, intricate mechanisms, and the meticulous craftsmanship applied have collectively resulted in one of the world's most exceptional accuracy rates.
 
The official adoption of the Type 89 rifle by the Self-Defense Force transpired in 1989, signifying a pivotal moment in its legacy. By 2006, an impressive deployment of approximately 50,000 rifles had taken place, primarily within close combat units, notably the Ground Self-Defense Force's regular regiments. Furthermore, variants with foldable stocks were introduced, designed for easy portability and adopted by the 1st Airborne Corps and armored vehicle units. This evolution underscores the rifle's continuous adaptation to meet the dynamic needs of modern military forces.
 
Meticulous Realism in Functionality and Design
Tokyo Marui's gas blowback creation goes beyond superficial appearances. Its maintenance procedures and variable hop-up system adjustments closely emulate real-world practices. The internal mechanism, typically concealed by exterior components, has been meticulously replicated. This model is a testament to precision and aims to be the ultimate Type 89 experience.

The takedown process closely mirrors real maintenance procedures.
 
Precision Hand Guard
The hand guard, essential for adjusting the variable hop-up system, accurately combines steel pressing and resin, matching the real thing. Moreover, the gas cylinder and outer barrel's form, concealed beneath the handguard, is now impressively replicated.

The bipod can be effortlessly attached to the barrel using a lever operation and folds just like the authentic version.
 
Adjustable Sights
The front sight is adjustable vertically using the included tool. Additionally, the rear sight can be fine-tuned both vertically and horizontally using intuitive dials.
 
Muzzle Options
The double-nut-type muzzle flash hider is secured with a barrel nut. By removing the flash hider, users can install various muzzle options with a 14mm reverse thread, such as a silencer, to suit their preferences.
 
Aluminum Die-Cast Magazine
The 35-round aluminum die-cast magazine closely emulates the real version, complete with remaining bullet confirmation holes on the left side.
