This is a gas pistol that’s a few years old and has been fired a few times, not thrashed. The seller says it’s overall pretty good, and the one thing wrong with it is a worn slide lock. Rack the slide back by hand and it won’t stay locked open unless you hold the lock with your thumb, and let go and it can slip forward. He says it doesn’t affect firing in any way, and the slide blows back when it fires. Nothing else disclosed, and he’s put it up front rather than leaving you to find it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n    It’s gas-operated, so there’s no battery and nothing to charge the night before a game.
