    i was expecting it to be better than this

    I was really looking forward to this pistol coming out, but now i've seen the video i'm a bit disappointed - it looked better in the CGI pictures!!

    the guy says mostly plastic construction and what appears to be the same loading system as a ruger superhawk (not that i've owt against them you understand)

    never mind

    Yep, that does look like a little bit of a let down.

    Still, from what the guy says it must only be about £50-£60 in the UK so its good to have a few guns in that price range to get people interested.

    A guy on another forum said his whole front receiver bit broke off as he pulled the gun out of his holster
    Quite a disappointing gun indeed. The build quality seems terrible.

    When I bought pounds in May, they cost me $1.65 American dollars. I have no idea what the exchange rate is at the moment.

    When you hear "BB's", followed by "lots of plastic": don't expect too much.
