Yeah, my thinking was I'd only use it if my primary was down or I was within MED. The Tanaka is nice because it has an adjustable hop-up and can be reloaded quickly with a speed loader. Unfortunately, all the chrome and midnight blue finishes are sold out: black is all that's left.
On the bright side, since the Python has the gas reservoir in the cylinder, Tanaka made the grip identical to the real Colt, so I can use real steel grips if I so choose!
Anyway, I'll probably order it in the next couple of days. I'm gonna go with the 6-inch. Go big or go home and all that.
I'll have to start looking for a holster I like. I'd kill for a replica of Captain Mal's holster!
