Back on topic, I wonder if the Colt would look as fake as the Nickel S&W 586? It loks like a toy because the non-rotating cylinder is too obvious when compared to the black version.
Thats why it would HAVE to be straight through cylnders for it to work imo.
You would think that the mechanism would be fairly straight forward seeing as its such an old and simple system.

FAN THE HAMMER?Originally Posted by PHOBUS
Something like this but it would have to be up to the Umarex high standards and absolutely require clear chambers and the ability to fan the hammer .
You could invent a new discipline just for these pistols
Yeeee Haaaarrr Partner !!

The grip on my Smith 686 holds the bottle internally. I'll bet a Peacemaker grip would, too. But I agree that it would be an ugly abomination if it couldn't.A bit off topic but here you go .
They are nice but as a purist the bottle sticking out the grip kills it for me
I would buy a Umarex Peacemaker for definate !! Esp in blingtastic chrome

They do require a license in the UK, Dave: and in a few US states.
But licensing aside: it's nice to own something that's safe, convenient, and quiet enough to shoot on your own property.
That's an advantage air guns will always have over cartridge or black powder.

Hi Jim, yes I know they need licences in the Uk, my point was that it seems incredible that they don't (or didn't) need licences over here!They do require a license in the UK, Dave: and in a few US states.

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 ?
