| Hi folks, Just a small review of SIG P230 modelgun by KSC, released just recently. KSC has SIG P230 and P232 in it's airsoft product line. When KSC planned to make P230 in airsoft, everybody said it is impossible to build in a cyliner/piston into such a small slide, but KSC did it and P230 became a smash hit for them. For long, many people cry for another modelgun from KSC, nothing for long after Beretta 93R and now, finally, P230. The gun is made from ABS, and it's compact size, it is fairly light. However, the quality of production is very nice. Especially, a back of magazine is well processed. I am not sure how the marking been correctly done, but considering recent "trade mark noise" around many industries, KSC did the best I think. Have not fired yet, but using 380 size rounds with 7mm cap, I heard it is bit loud. After being bit fed up with PPK clone by Marushin (and CAW), it is something fresh to everybody's eye here. It seems KSC already sold it's first lot of inventory, made another smash hit for them. Here are some photos. If you are interested, I can get one for you. Thanks, S did Photobucket changed the way to copy a photo? cannot copy & paste the photo....

| I don't think so man - I can still post pics with photobucket the old way... Now HK have the extra-long 5-day public holiday (Easter/Tomb Sweeping Day/and the weekend - and 3 for me because Easter isn't considered as labour holiday here )...basically what I mean is HK Post closes for these 5 days so the shipment of these P230 to HK will be delayed for another couple of days... KSC have better trade practice by having the gun in pfc while dummy rounds and stopper also available as options (unlike Marushin - quite immoral with all these PPK variants...and yet I couldn't be tempted and now I've almost 10 PPK and variants in just one-year time). What I want from this P230 - first this ABS, and then the HW and the silver version...P230 only because don't know why I just don't really like the P232... | |

| Thanks for your Review Shazhib, it's very encouraging to read that KSC have produced a new pfc modelgun after recent stories that they were closing I just checked Photobucket and had no problems copying & pasting photos here. Would you please try again and if you have further problems perhaps you could e-mail me your photos and I'll try pasting them here for you _________________ Cerwyn

| Finally got the "whole package" yesterday (i.e. the gun, dummy rounds and the stopper for it) - the weight of it is identical to its airsoft counterpart BUT the gripping/slide & trigger pull is more solid and therefore more realistic... When the world now is full of uncertainties I suggest to get one asap instead of waiting for the variants (everything may gone just in a flash)... | |

What did you mean by "I can get one for you"?
