Dear Jaap,

Hello from Virginia. It’s good to hear from the land of dikes, windmills and tulips. I’ve loved visiting your beautiful country, although it has been many years now.

The price you are seeing on that 5906 would be most attractive even translated to dollars if the gun shoots well. Magazines are becoming somewhat expensive here, especially original factory ones... does the one you are looking at have more than one? Prices for spare mags become a serious consideration.

An original, un-altered 5906 should easily be able to shoot to the level you describe. Is the one you are looking at currently at a store with a range? Can you test fire it (even if you have to pay a fee?) This could put your mind at ease and even prevent a costly mistake!

Good luck with your search and keep us informed of the outcome. You might even post a picture if you buy it; we love pictures here.
