It all began during World War II when gunmakers in the town of Danao supplied guerillas with weapons against the Japanese. Now 10,000 of Danao's 100,000 residents are involved in the industry. Replicas of M-16, AK-47, Uzi and Ingram sub-machine guns are the most popular firearms. The weapons are later sold to local customers,politicians, military personnel and ordinary civilians. For example, a revolver maybe sold for $ 80 which is already equivalent to a few weeks' wages. They are also very popular among Japanese Yakuza and Chinese mafia.

Not Bad...they all look pretty damn threatning.
Looks like the U.S. has outsourced its handgun production to the Philippines 08

I wonder if any of these weapons are actually safe - for the person behind them not the one in front?

are they built to the same specs as the real thing? For instace, does an uzi mag made by the IMF fit in one of these uzis?

If so I'm going to the Philippines.

these guns are extremely dangerous as they are only made to look like legit guns. they do not even remotely have the same internal tolerances and will probably blow up after just a few shots

Quality looks a little primitive (as well as the manufacturing) and the finish on those handguns doesn't look so good.

These guns are actually good. Bought one their Colt 45 and works perfectly. A lot of people use these guns since it's cheap and it has a good quality.

raymond.wendt,
Yup, they actually do..hehhe


Slugsie,
Yup, they are safe for the person behind the gun. It's a sad thing but most of the guns for hire here use these guns. Not to mention accurate.

Got directed to this site from another where they were complaining about the primitive methods... Gotta say, if these were pictures of old guys making guns in a barn in the US, the same people would probably call it old school ingenuity and only judge the guns on the finished product... If they function as intended and are priced to the level of their quality, then should be no problem.
