Hi there,

Tanaka is going to release Colt Detective modelgun around in May....finally. This will be an ABS, not HW, but exciting news for those "snubby" fans.

Great! :-)

It's good to hear about a new model. Tanaka already had the molds from their airsoft version, and revolver does not require developing a blowback mechanism, so it's relatively easy for them. In any case - good news, and I do like these small revolvers :-)

You must be talking about me don't you Very Happy

I'm sure first it will be the 2nd version - do you know any plan for the 3rd version in the near future (i.e. similar to my dummy replica)? I wish Tanaka will release it in "steel finish" as well...and don't forget his brother with a longer......barrel: Colt Police Positive that is!

hi folks, Detective is now in a market.
It is in ABS, bit light, but having very good feeling. Finger cross for Tanaka to make Police Positive as well.

Great!

Even with my larger hands I enjoy these small revolvers. Not always convenient to pull the trigger, but they are so fun!

What cartridge mechanism does Tanaka use? Same as Kokusai?

smootik,

Yes, you screw off a bullet, set a cap inside and screw on.
