"This is a gas gun. It uses Green Gas as a propellant."

...m-m-m-metal slide????? if so, to coin a common darklite phrase "penis hard like titanium" lol

but seriously, if this has a metal slide i will be SO happy

UHC has never made a metal anyting, ever. Don't expect this one to have a metal slide. Still though, looks pretty good. Hopefully it'll be better than the TK was. Also, glad to see I'm not the only one who still says "oh snap!"

sure? seems odd that they would tell you to use a plastic slide gun on green, in fact a lot of companies tell you to use 134a on metal slide guns to be on the safe side

Why is it necessary for people to come into news threads and tell us how ugly THEY think a gun is? If you don't like what you're looking at, there's this handy little button at the top left of your browser called "Back"... Use it.

(God forbid there might be some guns that don't look like the M14 and 1911)

...i love it, a rubber grip sleeve would improve the look imo...and the orange tip naturally detracts from the look

Yes! I'm jumping!

I'm looking forward to seeing how well it performs. I knew it was worth it to wait instead of buying the Tanio Koba.

I noticed that it says "grooves in barrel." TK twist barrel maybe?

It doesn't look it but it's actually quite a big pistol

I always wanted a VP70 but then I read the reviews of the TK one and was like I put it in the shopping basket, fill out all the stuff but then my finger would freeze up as the mouse pointer hovered over the "pay/confirm" button.
