Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Good kick, nice weight and good gas Efficiency.
Cons:	Slightly plasticky

First of all this is my first review so I�ll do my best.

I purchased this gun with another mag off the forums for the princely sum of �85, a few days later the postman arrived at my doorstep with a package, I signed for it and rushed back inside.

I was too exited to open the wrapping properly so I literally tore it off with my teeth.

First of all a little real steal history,

The Tokyo Marui Tactical Master is strictly speaking not based on a real firearm it does however share a lot of features with the real steel M92 Elite.

The concept for the Beretta 92 was born in the minds of Carlo Beretta, Vittorio Valle and Giuseppe Mazzett in 1970, and was first bought into production in 1975. under the designation Mod. 92 cal. 9mm Parabellum.

Opening the box.

Upon opening the box I was greeted with the tac master, magazine, cleaning rod, some bb's and marui leaflets and catalogue (the usual tm stuff).
The gun itself is fairly nicely presented in a black polystyrene box.

The gun.

This is marui's latest model after there military model, in this model they've added "combat sights" all they've done is added white dots to the sights which they should have done in the first model.

There is now there version of a Hogue grip which is basically rubberized plastic, it's comfortable to hold and gives it a nice finish.

Shooting it.

I gassed up the mag and loaded it with hfc 20g. bb's, inserted the mag and racked the slide then I proceeded to squeeze the trigger......Clack, I felt a large jolt up my arm and a large grin on my face was present.

The gun has a good kick, although to some who are used to a metal slide the recoil might be a bit hollow, this is solved by purchasing a metal slide although I have yet to do this.

With a fully gassed up mag I can shoot about 3 mags worth of bb's, the gun also seems to have very little problem with cool down.

Conclusion.

Although I have only "mildly" skirmished and plinked with this gun I have submerged it water and mud and it has survived with no damage.
Provided it's maintained (lubed and cleaned etc) this gun has the potential to last ages with out getting broken.

I hope my review has been informative and useful.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):
Cons:

ok. most things pointed out above. I would like to say that mine was the chrome model. so some things I noticed different.

1. the chrome is REALLY shiny... in any skirmish arena it will glint in the sun.

2. it ran like a charm stock. and it ran even better after I added close to 300 USD in upgrades to it.... but at either state in its life... it was a Major gas hog.

3. I found my hop a bit finicky at times. some days it would be very smooth in the settings. at other times it was very very sensitive.

over all i found this to be a great side arm. and one worthy of any skirmisher or collector.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):	takes green gas,ergonomic,good power
Cons:	plastic

I bought this pistol to be my side arm. It turned out to be an excellent buy at only $110 for the gun and then an extra $20 for an extra mag. This gun is super comfortable to hold and has a nice loud pap! when fired. I am runing mine off of propane and has shown no signs of wearing yet. I highly recommend this pistol to anyone looking for a good reliable side arm.
