It's not a true replica, it's a mish/mash of various tactical styles i suppose, but it's Co2 powered & that's good enough for me,so will fit in here, when i pick mine up tomorrow i will post some piccy's  |

There's plenty of other forums dedicated to air rifles, this forum is just for Replica Airguns ( the clues in the name), so please be mindful of this before posting anything non replica related to this forum. co2-handguns.freeforums.net/thread/4/big-hello-quick-introduction-meIf you click the link above, which was my very first post on this forum, you'll see this..... (Quote)A little word to the wise.This is not an 'AIRGUN' forum, it's STRICTLY for Replica Firearms and I will curtail, suspend and even ban members who disregard this rule, there are an abundance of dedicated airgun forums on the web to choose from if you wish to post about such things, so please be aware that if you go down that path, it will almost certainly be a permanent one way trip.(Unquote) |

Sorry chief, I wasn't sure if it maybe sneaked in via the back door due to it's AR styling I know what you're saying but I have to draw the line somewhere or other members will (quite rightly) start posting pictures of any old CO2 powered air rifle because they've seen that one has been allowed. I've got to draw the line somewhere and the reason behind this forum is that it's dedicated just to Replica Firearms, I definitely don't want it to end up up as just another airgun forum, I'd rather the forum was focused on (and specialised in) replica firearms. It's a bit of a 'grey' area if I'm being totally honest and I've struggled with ascertaining the boundaries that should be enforced myself. Things like the SA-10 aren't actually a replica of any known pistol and then there's the S&W model 78g which is a replica of their own model 41 target pistol, so yes it's a replica but it's a replica of a target auto pistol ! I'm still finding my feet with this all, but all I can say is that all of the guns in my collection are replicas of their real steel counterparts, so that's where I'm drawing the line....it has to be a replica. We will always have the Gamo range of CO2 pistols that should fall outside of the forum's remit as they are 'styled' on actual guns but because of laws governing copyright infringement they cannot be identical replicas, just generic copies. The same can be said of the SA-10, which looks like the illegitimate love child of a Sig Sauer & Glock sexual relationship, it's styled on those guns but not an actual copy of any one gun in particular. It's a grey area, a grey area indeed..... One that may need further discussion between us all for clearer clarification on the guidelines. As always, I'm more than willing to entertain other members thoughts on the subject in a friendly constructive way. |

The first generation of Dan Wesson revolvers tends to give me pause for thought, as they are not replicas of any real steel pistol.
The Wingun 'chassis' is used on multiple branded products, so are they all replicas? I just keep going round it and getting nowhere!

I'm all for accepting airguns that are least pretending to be the real things. Like the SA-10, the Gamo's etc. They do fit into our entertainment bracket in my opinion. After all we let those pesky ring magazine revolvers in. Runs for cover.......... |

The Wingun 'chassis' is used on multiple branded products, so are they all replicas? I just keep going round it and getting nowhere! The first gen' Dan Wessons are certainly not a replica of any RS Dan Wesson, in fact they're a 'hotch-potch' of a few different manufactured guns. The 6" & 8" are very, very close replicas of the Taurus Raging Bull, the 2½" snubby is a replica of a S&W model 66 and the jury have still not returned a verdict on the 4" ! That's another amalgamation of a few types of guns wrapped into one (Colt Python, Colt Police Positive, etc.). We can't just open this all up to any CO2 powered handguns because we would then have an influx of CP1's ( et al) and that is something I definitely don't want to see here on this forum (CO2 powered target pistols). So it's a case if where do I draw the line ? |

After all we let those pesky ring magazine revolvers in. Runs for cover..........I'm with you there on the SA-10 and Gamo handguns, like you said they are at least pretending to be a replica firearm and I feel that they do fall into our entertainment bracket. I just feel that when it comes to rifles we have things like the Umarex Ruger 10/22 that are perfect replicas of the real steel versions and then we have got things like the ASG TAC rifle which isn't a replica and as such (despite it's looks or appeal) should not be include or accepted into this forum. I'm just worried that if we push the boundaries further and further out we will eventually just end up as another AGF which is not what I intended, this forum is dedicated to all those guns that fall into the Replica Firearm category. There's a myriad of other forums available to discuss general air rifle topics and such things ,personally I just want to keep this one specifically focused on one type, that way we become a specialist forum rather than a general one. I know that it will have a limited appeal to many BUT it will be of enormous value to people like myself who are only really interested in replica firearms. |
