TM Chrome m92

[Handsome Pete]

Not one that goes for pimped up and shiny guns, however, having seen Jean Reno wield one in 'Ronin' ive started to think...hhmmm thats nice

 

Anyways, with it being abs and not metal, i wanted to know what the chrome quality is like, does it look cheapo and tacky, does the paint chip to reveal a different colour?

 

if anyone can answer these questions i would be greatful. and YES i have searched

Most TM 'chrome' pistols seem to have a good chrome style quality.

From the one that I picked up at airsoft extreme, the quality seemed o.k. It looks somewhat plasticky, but only up close.

OK KUL.... really thinking now of purchasing one...my first ever chrome. anymore thoughts or opinions?

A friend of mine bought one about couple of years ago and I had a chance to examine it a bit back then. In my opinion (which is usually very, very picky in this kind of matters, bear in mind) Marui´s Chrome finish is very toyish & plasticky. Mostly because Beretta has never offered their M29F in this kind of polished chrome style, but more in conventional stainless steel. Also real Beretta Inox´s frame is actually a tad different shade, because it´s aluminium alloy and slide is steel. Then again in Marui´s Desert Eagle the chromy finish doesn´t matter that much (at least to me, again), since those guns have actually been available in highly polished chrome finish.

 

If such details are no concern, honestly put TM´s chrome coating is fairly even and seems quite durable (for an airsoft "chrome/stainless/Inox" emulating finish). Not very realistic, though, and it´s no wonder most airsofters put every "stainless/Inox" finish down if this is their impression of "real" stainless gun finish...
