Okay all you purveyors of inexpensive "clone" pistols, oddball pistols, unusual pistols, hard to find pistols, etc., what can you tell me about Golan pistols from Isreal? I handled a .40s&w version in a local shop today and, if I didn't know better, I'd swear it's a virtual knock-off of the TZ-99/CZ-99 (SIG P226 copies).
The rear cocking serrations on the slide are larger and less numerous, but the rest of the pistol is a dead ringer. Same ambidextrous decocker/slide release, same ambidextrous mag release, same extra curve at the bottom of the trigger guard, same understated thumb indents at the top of the grip, same three-dot sights with HUGE dots, similar trigger pull (although better than my TZ).
Machining, fit, and finish are all first rate. No rough edges or tooling marks to be found.
Now, before someone whacks me over the head for looking at a SIG P226-knockoff instead of a real SIG , I already do have a P226 in .40s&w.
Just curious, as the $325 price tag doesn't seem too bad.
Thanks, and take care all. Marko
