Here is my Tanaka S&W 2.5" Combat Magnum. Sadly, it doesn't fire projectiles being a Plug Fire Cap Gun, but it does make a bang and some smoke!
Fit and finish is absolutely perfect. An exquisite replica (in my opinion), very compact and weighty, this one feels like all metal to me.
I really wish that CO2 replica manufacturers would replicate some slightly more unusual and interesting models like this.
Here is the manufacturers info:
The so-called "Combat Magnum" first appeared in the 1950s as a K frame that can shoot powerful 357 Magnum bullets. Widely adopted by American police and security guards, it is a popular model that frequently appears in action movies and dramas, as well as manga and animated cartoons.
Please note this is a Plug Model Gun with removable shells (6 included). Plug fire cap guns (aka model guns) use a small cap (7mm not included) and clever cartridge mechanism to produce a very realistic simulation of a real firearm including noise, venting smoke and flash/sparks and this is a single/double action revolvers. PFC models operate and are strip-able exactly as the real items without actually firing a projectile. Each model takes the appropriate calibre cartridges adding to the realism.
