    The Witness is a brilliant pistol but lots of brilliant pistols wouldn't necessarily fall into the category of best built, I love the Dan Wesson too but it's engineering isn't exactly top class

    it just locked back one time and crunched it self up, i took it back to my local shop they couldn't explain it, and i didn't get another due to just it firing 400 rounds and then well yeah.... the gun shop said something about it maybe being damaged because i did buy it without the box they gave me a full refund though so i wasn't that bothered,

    In my view

    Serious pistol = Tau 7
    Fun plinker = Baikal Makarov

    Most of the rest appear to be made of a kind of hard cheese with added plastic and are highly unlikely to become heirlooms

    i cant see any reason why the tan wit wouldnt last for years, might just need the blowback seal after a few years i spose .

    old schimel gas pistols were made of much worse metal and some of those are still in shooting condition ,,, 60 years on

    id like a Tang.....they look good fun, may get one in a couple of weeks after the end of month bills are done....wish i kept the makarov though. The other 1 i may get is the diana l5 magnum, but thats a different sort of pistol.
