    I'd love to have a replica of the WA 2000. It's such a great looking sniper rifle. So great that it's also Agent 47's sniper rifle of choice.

    Regarding the sniper rifles in THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS, compare Bond's Walther (a .308) to Kara's bolt-action Winchester Model 70 (.30-06).

    A nice weapon, but visually set up to be inferior to Bond and fail. Also, maybe the US firearm in the hands of the Russians foreshadowed the reveal of the American Whitaker as the villain.

    Similar to many classic rifles including the more minor semi-automatic Marlin-Glenfield (.22 caliber) of my youth, complete with the squirrel carved into the stock/handgrip.
