Tanfoglio LTD Custom CO2 Airsoft Metal Pistol Kit

Blowback(quick, crisp and more kick than my real steel P22) Trgger(2.5lbs, crisp, very little creep or takeup) Balance(fits like a glove) Accuracy(consistant 1.5" groups @ 20yds with .20, .25 & .28g BB's) Weight

Sights(while stock sights are excellent and fully adustable I would prefer fiber-optics) Grips(a pistol of this quality should be fitted with checkered wood or rubber grips)

Right out of the box this is a supurb airsoft pistol, as close to real steel quality, feel, and accuracy you will ever get from an airsoft. Buy one...better yet buy two and prepare to be dissapointed with everything else in your airsoft pistol arsenal. I actually get bored plinking cans with this pistol becuse it hits every one I point it at.

Just about everything. This is a well made, accurate piece of equipment. The recoil-blowback is for real! Very pleased with this piece.

Possibly optional grips, but it's just personal preference.

The adjustable sights are very good for an Air Soft pistol. Not up to target sights on a real target pistol, but much better than some adjustable sights I have seen on real pistols. The trigger is also very good, again not up to that on a true target real pistol, but much better than the average real pistol. The slide action is realistic, similar to a .22 cal real pistol. The gun points well and feels like a real gun in the hand.

Hop Up is always on max. Mine shoots one inch high at 10', 2 inches high at 20' and 3 inches high at 30' with the rear sight adjusted to max down. As shipped the Hop Up was set to mid range. The instructions gave no indication of which way to move it. I tried both extremes with no change in the trajectory. For close range this is adequate but beyond 30' expect to have to hold low. Group size is about par for a smooth bore plastic BB in a pistol. I prefer rubber grips, so the metal grips on this pistol are not that appealing to me. However, their feel is not too bad except for the front strap protruding checkering. The grip is a personal thing. I have small hands and find this grip ever so slightly large for me. The checkering on the front strap is a little too sharp and hits the inside knuckle area of my hand. If I ground off the checkering on the front strap of the grip I think the grips would fit my hand perfectly. In fact I may do that at some later time.

All the controls function as a normal pistol and are easy to engage. It can be put on safe either cocked or hammer down. Slide removal is not a slam duck. It takes a little patience as the slide release pin can be tight to remove and lining up all the internals for assembly takes a little practice. That is the only disassembly instructions provided in the manual. The main spring, guide rod, and barrel can be removed, but it is very tedious to find the right combination of positions and angles to accomplish that. No instructions are provided. Only the most adventurous and mechanically inclined should attempt this. I have had no failures to function or fire. The magazine falls free when the release is pressed. Loading works best with the auto loader accessory. CO2 tanks load easy. Had no problem with leaks while sealing or using the gun. It is fun to shoot. I use it mainly for indoor practice when the weather is not good enough to go to the outdoor range with my .22, 9mm, and .45 ACP target pistols.
