Tanaka S&W M36 2 inch Square Butt Travis Model Gun (Nickel Finish)
The Tanaka S&W M36 2-inch Square Butt Travis Model takes
inspiration from the iconic 2-inch Nickel finished Model 36 revolver
with faux ivory grips, prominently featured in the 1976 film "Taxi
Driver." In the movie, Robert De Niro's character, Travis Bickle, wields
this particular revolver, which has led to its replication by Tanaka
and the name "Travis Model."
Tanaka has meticulously crafted a remarkable replica that, at first
glance, appears to be a metal gun. The level of detail in the finish is
so impressive that even the most discerning individuals can easily
mistake it for a genuine metal firearm. However, despite its appearance,
this gas revolver is constructed from high-quality heavyweight plastic.
Don't let the plastic construction diminish its value, though, as it
boasts a substantial weight, further augmented by various metal
components. Holding this revolver in your hand gives the sensation of
handling a real metal gun, and the reflective surface allows you to see
your own reflection?an impressive feature indeed! Metal parts such as
the hammer, trigger, and cylinder contribute to its lifelike aesthetic,
making it an excellent choice not only for collectors but also for film
enthusiasts or cosplayers looking to portray Travis Bickle.
Operating this model gun is a delight, thanks to its smooth and
direct double action. Pulling the trigger slowly provides a
buttery-smooth experience, devoid of any gritty sensations. The trigger
breaks cleanly, and its reset is crisp and positive, accompanied by the
satisfying sound of the cylinder rotating, preparing the pistol for the
next shot. This exemplifies the attention to detail and effort that
Tanaka has invested in making this revolver truly exceptional.
It's important to note that this is a non-firing model gun, designed solely for display and recreational purposes, rather than actual use as a functioning firearm.
