    Buy it, play with it.

    if, like mine, the novelty wears off then sell it.

    You won't lose any money at all so what have you got to lose?

    You can't fault the HW45

    After five years mine still performs brilliantly and is a joy to use.

    For that price it would need to be mint boxed and recent, you can even get them sometimes for around 130 in that condition off here.

    Other than that, they are nice guns and more than accurate enough, with not too much effort 1" at 10yds is no big deal.

    I would go for .22 you are not going to be using any pistol beyond 15yds so there is no practical difference in the trajectory.

    unless you shoot pistol hft/ft

    .177 pellets are cheaper, and only .177 is allowed in most formal paper punching stuff.
