HPA M1918 BAR: identify?

[HELIflipper03]

Can anyone try and identify what this is or who made it or when it is from? It seems to be a M1918 BAR in an HPA format, no markings, very rusty, full metal and wood, unbelievably heavy.

Not so sure, seems to be much too large and definetly too heavy. Even I as a full grown man had trouble lifting it.

the fact that its rusty is slightly worrying i'm not sure there was a airsoft bar with a steel barrel

Well, it's definetly hpa. The magazine inside is also clearly made to store bbs. Are you suggesting in may have once been real?

this is the most common airsoft bar https://shop.ehobbyasia.com/ay-m1918-browning-automatic-rifle-bar-aeg-real-wood-stock.html there are a lot of differences comparing the pics and it dosnt look like the VFC https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/vfc-bar-m1918a2-airsoft-gun-aeg. I have heard of deacts being converted to airsoft but it could just be a really old mid 90s HPA.
