    The Colt Saa - Why No Umarex Clone?

    Why doesn't Umarex/Walther produce a Colt Single Action Army (Peacemaker? whatever, you know the late model 'Cowboy' .45 Colt) type pistol for its CO2 range? It seems a bit remiss, they have the Smith & Wesson revolver and all those semi-auto clones. Brocock used to sell their SAA type pistols quite happily until the TAC disaster.

    Perhaps there is not enough room in the grip for the gas cylinder? Maybe they could make one to take the 8g cylinders then...

    The Crosman Colt SA is not very nice. An Umarex one to the standard of the Smith & Wesson revolver is more what I fancy. I think Daisy or Crosman actually make a Glock clone, I just don't think it is imported here yet.

    here is a link

    http://www.crosman.com/site/listing/1325

    Is that what you want?

    The best Glock 17 clone out there at the moment is the RAM 30X, Real Action Marker, that fires .43 paint balls or rubber balls from a 9 shot mag at up to 240fps.

    Great fun

    Cheers

    I don't know anything about paintball or paintball guns. Not sure I want to, since I already need to learn so much / can't afford to buy what I want, with conventional airguns, muzzleloaders, and cartridge guns.

    But what the hell, please tell us more!

    Colt 1873 > 45 SAA Replica's

    The answer to your question is that Replica Arms of a type manufactured after 1870 are not allowed to be sold in the UK !

    Ah , but these would NOT be replicas .

    These would be air pistols - or rather CO2 pistols .

    How do you suppose the current glut of Colt / Beretta /Desert Eagle CO2 pistols get around it ?
