There is a very nice and like new Hobby Fix M4A1 on auction in Japan:

https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/j430606004

The price is still high, but remember this was sold for 249.000 JPY when it was new in 2001.

Maybe this is a rare chance to get one ...

Can you import it into European Union ?

Sorry, I just forget to come back to this question.

I think it can be legally imported as it is a dummy only model, similar to the dummy models by SHOEI.

It is not a deactivated real firearm and thus legal in Germany or the UK. The problem is that it is so realistic, being full metal (aluminum) and using a lot of real parts like hand guards, magazines, sights etc. So it won't be easy for customs to realize what it really is, a sophisticated toy model gun, which could cause trouble.

Should be OK to import into the EU, as long as the sender puts down the correct importation information, shouldn't be any more difficult to import than an Airsoft replica.
I would love to have the opportunity to own one of these, but I'm working on making one of my own, I'll keep the Forum posted on my future build

£2072.00!!! That's madness.

Don't you think I know it ... ;.)

that's a frightening price
