The S&W R8 is a modernized revolver that utilizes S&W's N Frame, typically used for higher caliber rounds like .44 Magnum. The R8, however, takes 8 rounds of .357 Magnum or .38 Special, hence its name. It is also featured in the popular video game, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
The Tanaka S&W Performance Center M627 5-inch 8-shot Stainless Finish Version 2 Model Gun is an authentic replica of the real steel R8/M627. Despite being made of high-quality heavy-weight polymers, it is finished in a manner that closely resembles a full metal version. This Performance Center variant offers a smoother action compared to non-Performance Center models. Additionally, the revolver comes with a moon clip, enabling quick reloads.
Tanaka revolvers are well-known for their exceptional smoothness, boasting top-notch triggers, hammers, and cylinders in the airsoft revolver market. These qualities are faithfully replicated in this pistol. Furthermore, this non-firing model gun is shell-loaded, enhancing its realism and making it suitable as a decorative piece or movie prop. While the gun itself is made of plastic, it is a Heavy Weight model, providing a realistic weight to enhance the overall experience.
