I bought a S&W 586 from John and swapped a Weihrauch HW99 for a HW45. Decent chap to deal with.

Didn't meet the seller, but picked it up from his wife who was also lovely. She was telling me he nearly shot her while testing the gun the night before! 😂 Probably best if I have them I guess! He gassed up both mags the night before and they are still holding gas. Only fired a few air shots to make sure it all works and the power feels fine. Now just hoping that this will group better! Sadly I'm tied up for the next few days... due to help host a seminar next Tuesday in London and I'm still preparing my slides! #lastminunte.com

So the mags were fine. One of them was nearly empty but still had a few shots left. The other had another 30 shots. Had some time this afternoon, so tested the Mag with the fewest shots to make sure it is definitely holding gas. It is. No leak on tightening. This is with my old Limited Custom. And this is the newer gun. Last 20 shots from it. Some kind of group there. Some stray by me, but some hy the gun. The lower one is the last shot. Either way I'm happy. Now I have 4 mags for the CZ-Tanfoglio!

I love these guns, but hard to get hold of the Gold Custom or Limited here in the states, especially spare mags. I did happen to luckily log on to my #1 replica vendor (Evike in California) just to see if anything new was added as I occasionally do. There it was , a totally "refurbished" and warrantied Tanfoglio Gold Custom priced at what I would have paid for just two extra mags. Although I was really after the Limited, couldn't resist to now own my second Gold. Great shooters and accurate to boot ! Should receive in a few days. This one will sport a mock C-More Site ($50 on E-Bay....lol), unlike the real deal I have on my present Gold. Funny, what started as a casual hobby for myself, has turned more into an obsession of..... "gotta have it" .......lol.

At a fraction of the cost of the real deal, and for us in UK the only way to own one that remotely looks like a pistol (we have long barrel pistol over here), it's a no brainer really. I found my Gold Custom shooter better than both my Limited Customs. They do vary in quality, and I just happen to have a good example for my Gold Custom. As usual, 5m weaver unsupported. This is with Red Dot. Umarex Steel BB

Anyhow twodoctors ! How the hell do you reckon you've got 4 magazines for your gun ? Are you not going to include one in with the other gun that you're going to sell cheaply to me ('cos it don't shoot straight & groups like a 12 bore shotgun at 20yds, lol).... Unless you're planning to have a go at dual wielding those bad boys, lol

Saving them for when I decide to do practical air pistols. The Tanfoglio Gold Custom is ideal...

Is that like practical shotgun?
If so, you will need a camouflage outfit so you can roll around on the floor while shooting... 😂
