Well this is a must have and hopefully a better firing one than the hudson. Suprised this info is out as even tanka's own site does not say anything about this release.

Although, the date still be TBD, but it is on the way. The price should be around 32,000, do not think will go up from here. A slide and lower body are made from HW, a barrel segment is from strengthen plastic (assuming the same material with Tanaka Beretta M92 HP).
A cartridge is made from aluminum with alumite processing.
This sounds really promissing. I can get one if somebody want one, recent issue is a shipping.....
Regard,
S

£250 for a plastic gun is not what I'd call a good buy.

lampwick, a lot of money i know but the exchange rate does not help and i would think material cost etc have gone up since the days of Hudson and MGC and Hudsons eagle was around the £200 mark and was not very good. BWC models are in the 100,000 region now that is expensive, god knows who can afford them and why they cost that much.

It may be delayed but that might be a good thing, link below to more news on it and a double cap cart. open it in google for a translate, this model looks better and better.
Really looking forward to this one Cerwyn and the double rounds look good, £55 though so not cheap, but if it perfoms better than the Hudson ones i will be happy.

£55 in Japan !!!!! wow UK price would make them very expensive with shipping etc too expensive I think ? Very interesting new cart design, not sure looking at it how it works but always good to see anything new
