    4 month old Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness (in box, brand new mag) +Two 1911 accessories

    Hi guys, so I'm getting rid of my Witness, not because I don't love it, but yeah essentially it just don't feel like I want it. This Witness was bought on the first of October last year, since then the seal in the magazine broke around mid november and I got a replacement mag in the post about 2 weeks ago, in between those times it wasnt used for anything more than just looking at, so its near brand new, its had about maybe 35 Bulbs through it overall. There are some very very minor faint scratches on the frame, in some photos it looks like there are chips in the paint but I assure you those are just little peices of foam from the box. This thing still works like it is brand new, I had it looked over by the gunsmith when I had the magazine sent back and he said everything is in working order and looking good.


    I have two accessories, one being the Pearce Rubber finger groove inserts for the grip, only 3 months old, a very small modification has been made to remove a tiny square of rubber on the groove sleeve that was covering over the rhs compliment to the magazine release(you would have done this if I hadn't) - personally I would recommend this, just because they feel great, like finger grooves aren't really my thing because I have small hands, but this feels like you have a really solid grip on the gun - and the other is a Madbull Punisher Compensator in black - this black is NOT the same as the black finish of the witness, it is a matte black - now the compensator's imitation "slide-lines" don't line up exactly parallel but its pretty close, only out by about 1-2mm. The Compensator is pretty much weightless so it doesn't change the feel of the gun, but due to its drop in nature, it does hold the barrel straight as anything, I have noticed that it is a little more accurate with it on, although that could be some physical manefestation of the placebo effect, ie me behaving like frank castle with his nail driver 1911s, but yeah I thought it was cool, it also adds about 1.5 inches to the overall length, and with a fresh bulb the co2 vents out the comp ports - pretty cool. You also get 10 free Cybergun 12 gram Co2 bulbs because at the end of the day this gun is so much fun and if you don't have any Co2 I still want you to shoot it as soon as you get it

    Overview

    1x Pretty much brand new Tanfoglio Witness 1911 in box, with manual and allen key (+ spare allen key from new magazine).
    1x Pierce rubber finger groove insert - Black - SOLD
    1x Madbull Punisher Compensator - Black - SOLD
    1x 10 Free Co2 bulbs and around maybe 300 free Umarex 4.5mm pellets

    If you want either of these accessory items you need to order them from the US or HK, and they're both practically brand new,

    Ill do the lot for £120 including postage, Express delivery. - Not anymore.

    I will do just the accessories for £20 including postage, first class - Accessories SOLD

    I will do just the pistol (w/ box, manual, allen keys) + the ammo and the CO2 for now just £95 (it just keeps going down) including postage, first class

    I will also consider offers


    Photos: If you go on my profile I have a whole stack of photos of it and what the accessories look like on it in there, when it makes its mind up as to whether I just did upload some photos or not Ill put some in the thread.

    Some pics of the grips and compensator:





    This is the slice I made in the rubber sleeve

    Brilliant, but unfortunately I had to cancel my debit card recently due to someone copying it , so yeah paypal won't do it, the Bank transfer sounds good to me, how would you suggest we go about this? I'll PM you my details?

    Accessories Sold


    ----- Some things I forgot to mention about the compensator: Originally it was a bit too much of a tight fit as it is designed for use with the Marui, WE and Socom Gear Airsoft 1911s, and the lip on the bushing has been shaved down somewhat, but because of that it actually gets on and off much easier and sits on nicely, the action of the turning it on and off the barrel just stripped the metal that was getting in the way of a snug fit. It has never come off whilst I have been using it, as long as it is on straight the gun will still cycle smoothly, you won't feel a difference. If you shoot your mag off too quickly you will cool down the barrel bushing and it will be kinda tricky to remove it for a minute or too, but after it warms up it comes off easy. To get it on I'm sure you know what to do, but to get it off it is suggested that you put your allen key down the guide rod hole of the compensator and depress the recoil spring cover, then rotate the compensator slightly to the right, and remove. Enjoy

    A further bump for the price, it wont let me edit the op anymore, so IGNORE THE OP - I will sell The Gun (in the box, everything as it was when it was fresh), CO2 and Pellets all for £80.

    85 quid for all of that. Even if you were to drive to somewhere like Mcavoys or one of those places that sells witnesses new for £80, you'd pay for petrol, and if you had it sent, you would pay 25 for having it sent to another RFD. This is a 98% new gun, its been cleaned and oiled up a little bit with some silicon oil, hardly used considering how I've had it for 4 months now, worth the bread , I really don't want to sell this but being a student means saying goodbye to things you love for food hehehe.
