A seriously "close-enough" Indy revolver

This one I would consider for holster-filling purposes:

And it shoots blanks, no pesky BBs...

sure, the Victory is a smaller K-frame gun, but it definitively has got the look...

I used to own an original Victory. When I laid it next to my N frame model 29, they were identical in outline, though the Victory was about a quarter smaller than the N....so you're absolutely correct. Without an N frame along side for comparison, they're definitely an Indy gun.

It looks like a good replica, very sharp and crisp in the details. Expensive though

Wow, I bought a real nice model 10 a few years ago at a local pawn shop for $150! (one that will put real holes in things).

i just picked up my tanaka m10 last night.....shoots bb's. very well made and looks just like that one.

it fits in todd's budget holster perfectly!

Indiana G,

Can you post the link for your source of the BB gun and maybe a picture?

Thanks,

I have a few grey/silver bb that looks somewhat like bullets when chambered. I keep the Tanaka gas-empty but have six grey bb's in the drum.

I have had a chance to look at the http://www.modelguns.co.uk/s&w_victory.htm gun and it's very well made, not a lot of metal but high grade plastic with very nice detail, the bullets are definitely the coolest feature, you just cant resist emptying it and reloading it.
A good buy and it can be treated like my Tanaka was here

Already did it to the one I saw. Here's the result, the grips are vintage wood grips.

Best regards,

Not sure about the tanaka, but my HFC FBI issue will fit some actual rounds, not sure what size. I had some rifle shells that I had gotten from a friend years ago that I cut down and put some putty in the end. They fir great and looked great.

my source is a funny story. i e-mailed this modelling company here in calgary, alberta canada in regards to the gun (as it is nearly impossible to get an air soft of your chosing unless you are a member of an airsoft gun club). prior to this i've tried all of the other local and out of town airsoft clubs with no success.

i received a reply from this company i found on the web and it turned out to be from a gentleman that i've already been doing business with in my professional life. he has a contact in toronto who brings guns in for a airsoft gun club so he got them to add my gun to their next order. this was done in october (

i thought AB's had a long wait).

i do not think my contact could help you in the states. i believe you have a much larger marketplace to get these guns. just search your local airsoft supplier. they can probably get it in easier than a canadian retailer.
