    ginger's latest pot metal

    If you want the low down on any Umarex pistol ask gingernut coz he knows. Picked up his latest "pot metal" offering from Umarex, a chrome plated 92 FS. Must be so new I can't find it in their pamphlet. I know its not collectable but in 50 years it probably will be and it will not be rusty. Hopefully there will still be some old guy similar to me around who can bend the pressure plate straight so the capsule does not leak after being installed.

    I've seen one of those and a chrome cp88 for sale in Poland recently, I thought they were the PPC1500 version but that's more of a brushed steel.
    They are nice Patrick, they were expensive tho!

    I saved money by not buying the CP88

    I wonder if they will do the 1911 and the S&W ?

    They didn't do a 1500 Colt for some reason.

    You already have a custom polished Umarex S&W snub nose you bought off me!
    They did do the anniversary and the gold Cup editions in the 1911, they are collectable and sell for good money, again pot metal......
