A bit of a classic (for me)

    I found this stuffed away in the attic yesterday :). I bought it when I was 15 (a long time ago!). I had good taste though - Tokyo Marui, although I can't say the same about the actual gun. So I thought I'd share a few pics of it. I got some gas from BFSL and it still fires perfectly.:eek:

    Heres a pic of the receipt - as you can see the date is 1995

    It still fires perfectly too - I'm really surprised ! I'd say it hasn't been fired since 1996.

    DONT USE IT!!

    Thats a classic and it still works!! If you break it you cant buy a new one!!
    If Airsoft keeps growing the way it is in a few years that'll be a collectors item.

    hehehe :) If only I had kept all the other pistols I had back then :( (G17, P228, Scorpion, Hardballer, Browning)

    This more than likely won't be used at HRTA, as I still have to get up off me arse and attend some weekend.
