a GB offering

ithacaartist · 05-14-2011, 11:26 AM

I found the particular item in question at http://www.wwiiguns.com/store/product_catalog.php?c=5 Does indeed look very realistic. I wondered why pay big bucks for a cap gun, albeit handsome. Duh, they would be for whomever is prevented from obtaining or possessing a real one. This site seems to be closer to, or original, retail price of $255--leaves quite a bit of meat on the bones when reselling for $625! Rather, puts meat on the bones...
If they are not made any more, bingo, they will be collectible (though somewhat pointless).
Has anyone ascertained whether the mag will work in a real P-08? Or the grips? Wouldn't know about the other small parts, which are described as zinc alloy (pot metal).

Yes, I posted in that thread after I asked my initial question. They are talking about a snail drum mag which seems internally different from original and will not fit in. These MGC's are supposed to cycle and feed the dummy brass ammo with the charge in the nose.
Has someone specifically tried the regular mag? Did you take off the grips to see what is going on when attempting insertion?
