I’ve also just added a lengthy review of the
Marushin XM177E2 Plug-Fire by R22Master to the site. If you’re new to PFC stuff, have a read to see what it’s all about:
Just like the adverts say, they look, function, fire and strip just like the real-steel originals, with the exception that no projectile (bullet) is launched out of the front end. They are similar to blank firers, but much more quiet and a lot cheaper to shoot (100 9mm blanks = 25 vs 100 PFC caps = 7). The other difference is that PFC guns actually emit smoke (and a flash if the barrel is short enough) out of the front end. Blank firers in the UK cannot do this, as it would legally turn the blank firer in to a firearm.
So, I looked around the various PFC gun web sites and found a few models that appealed. After much deliberation, I decided to get the Marushin XM177E2 Factory Boxed Set PFC Rifle from ModelGunCollector.co.uk.
