  2. Beretta Picture Thread

    Yes they do. M9 or M92F doen't matter, same gun.

     

    HATE to be picky, but grips for a M92F will NOT fit a KSC or WA Beretta without modification (not sure about the KJW or TMs).

     

    You HAVE to get 92FS ones there's a huge round pin head under the lift grip (someone real steel guru will explain it), which wasn't there on 92Fs, so the grips don't have a cut out for it and won't fit properly.

     

    Cheers.

    Did wonder if you'd deactivated them - A couple of years ago a bloke was looking at deact handguns and said that he'd wished he had his revolver deactivated as the one for sale was priced a lot higher than the government gave him in compensation.

     

    BTW, is Lt Fenix saying he changed the profile of the barrel rib from :

    to

    Lt Fenix, what kind of paint did you use on the Zeke kit? Looks very professionally done.

     

    I'd agree, but did you paint the side plate? It looks suspiciously like a standard Midnight Gold finish, although it may be the light.

     

    Cheers.

    Yeah, but that's only 'reality' for countries where it's possible to buy a firearm...

     

    That's why airsoft exists, because the Japanese are forbidden them.

     

    That said, that's an awful lot of money - Has anyone in the US tried building a Tanaka revolver into the frame of a real S&W?

     

    Cheers.

    All the 6mm ones have blue text - I think the idea was to drive collectors in Japan to the 8mm version...

     

    What's it like? I must admit, despite reading some bad reports it's still high on my list of airsoft pistols to try.

     

    Cheers.

    Thanks man, I was really surprised how well they came out but it seems they could have been focused better.

     

    The depth of field is a bit mixed (low light, large aperture issue), but I quite like photos where not ALL the gun is in pin sharp focus.

     

    Cheers.

    Yeah, build quality is pretty nice and it's very realistic in terms of parts (few that are airsoft specific).

     

    The brass trigger guard and wood grips are good (although the grips could bear some stain or lacquer I feel) and the frame's HW ABS.

     

    On mine the rear cover of the cylinder isn't a tight fit, so there's a rattle from it and when I first got it (used, but virtually new - no wear on the cylinder) gas went straight into the fill valve and straight out of the barrel. It seemed to be due to the hammer and firing pin interacting incorrectly, meaning that, with the hammer down, the valve was forced open.

     

    Cheers

    Yeah, but only for the short barreled one (the long barrel is a shot off HWS' site).

     

    I'm waiting for the weather to warm up because, frankly, it's a bit rubbish so far.

     

    Oh, and the gas goes in the back of the cylinder like with any other PEGASUS system revolver. There's a groove on the right hand side (presumably for fitting percussion caps on the real thing), which is pretty much where the loading gate is on an SAA.

     

    Cheers.
