Todd's Browning HP

Post by knibs7 »

I was wondering if anyone had one of these and/or if anyone had a video of it being shot. I was just wondering what exactly made it so great to justify spending $199.00 on it. Not trying to knock the price or anything, I just wanted to know what makes this different than any other gas powered air soft gun (besides the fact that it's an HP replica)

Thanks :TOH:

This is not "it" but judging from past experience with gas pistols, its gotta be pretty darn close.

Maybe it's capable of materializing out of thin air, just like indy's. :lol:

Well, for starters, it's not really Indy's HP. The Tanaka is a true FN-35 replica; Indy's HP was (anachronistically) an Inglis circa 1944, i.e. the HP made in Canada during WWII. It has a different rear sight than the FN, and has black grips.

Now, Marushin made a cap-gun replica of the Inglis about 3 years ago, but they are next to impossible to find; one sold last year on an auction site for $250. That said, I know where to get the Marushin version of the FN-35. It still has the incorrect rear sight, but it has the correct black grips. I can get them much cheaper than Todd's offering, but would need to put together a run of, say, 10 guns.

All that said, if you want an airsoft that actually shoots a projectile, Todd's HP is a terrific, high-quality replica.
