Type 89 History
During the Vietnam War, the United States military replaced the M14 with the M16 for a variety of reasons, one of the most important being the advantage of increased rate of fire, light weight, and lower recoil of the 5.56×45mm NATO round over the larger 7.62×51mm NATO round. Despite the fact that this shortened the effective range of the average infantryman during a firefight, the 5.56×45mm round (SS109) eventually became the standard of ammunition type for all NATO member assault rifles. In accordance with this, the Japanese Defense Agency began development on their next generation assault rifle to replace the 7.62×51mm Type 64 battle rifle after its 25-year span of service.
Development was handled primarily by Howa since it was already licensed to produce the AR-180 version of the Armalite AR-18 rifle for commercial purposes. In order to determine suitability of the rifle, it was issued in limited numbers to the Japan Self-Defense Forces for field testing purposes. After the data collected from the field testing stage of the AR-18 was examined, formal development of the next-generation assault rifle began with its designation as the HR-16 (HR1604). The HR-15 was the first version of the experimental rifle that would eventually become the Type 89, but was developed concurrently with the HR-10, HR-11 and HR-13 by 1989

Customer Reviews
Hy also have this problem with the nozzle. Is damaged and i need a new one. Can you order this part?
I got this gun only a short bit a go and to be honest I wish I could send it straight back to Tokyo Marui! The nozzle has broken to the point where it no longer feeds bbs. This is because something that they don't tell you is that you need to use Japanese spec bbs as American/Taiwan bbs grip onto the feeding lips. I love the gun so much, but it's unusable now because I can't replace the part I need since Tokyo Marui doesn't export!
If you are buying this gun be aware of two things
1. THERE ARE ALMOST NO PARTS. No one makes their own specialty parts for this gun unlike the MWS. You will have a very bad time if something breaks on this.
2. USE JAPANESE BBs. Seriously, read up online about "Tokyo Marui Type 89 Nozzle" and you will see plenty of posts and videos about the issue.
If I could replace the parts I'd be so happy with this gun. But since not right now I'd recommend buying a more well known or easier to interchange weapon platform :(
We will try to order the replacement asap, thanks
