Title: What Handgun is this?
Post by: Ksail101 on July 27, 2008, 08:28:08 PM
I have been trying to figure out what handgun this is in the picture. I think it is a Para but upon and inspection of their website I didnt see a gun like so maybe it is an older one but if you know that would be cool. I just like the way it looks. Looks like a good operators' gun but looks can always be decieving.

Tried the pan and scan, zoom but can't make it out either, Doesn't look like an HK, or EAA , but it could be a tweaked Para, looks good, let the brain trust here roll it around, a better guess is coming.

P.S. Ksail how's the PUMA! Its on my birthday list,... 8), I need all the tips I can get...

Dude, I think it's an airsoft gun. Looking at the floorplate of the mag, and the nice sculpting behind the trigger guard, and the very visable seam running along the trigger guard forward.

This is CO2 powered BBgun. More likely made by Umarex, very tipical sliding safety button on the frame. Airsoft guns all have orange muzle.

At first I thought it was the new polymer-framed Para, but that isn't even out yet. Then I realized it's not even real. I got excited about nothing.  :)
