EKOL Firat Compact 9mm PAK Front Firing Blank Gun Silent Auction

7 Comments

It’s been a while since I had Blank Gun available for silent auction here in Canada and this one is an EKOL Firat Compact 9mm PAK Front Firing Blank Gun in great shape well kept and with only 20 rounds through it.

It comes with a hard shell case, the flare adaptor, take down tool and manual. Pretty much everything it came with. The finish is closest to a stainless but I believe was called Chrome back in the day. I would call it a Satin nickel finish? Anyway watch the video and look at the photos to get a better idea of what I mean.

The EKOL FIrat is a lot like the EKOL Jackal which also came in compact and Magnum version and resemble a Beretta 92. The EKOL Jackal however is semi auto and full auto capable while the EKOL Firat is semi auto only. This will save you a lot of money on blanks since blanks cost around $40 for a 50 pack.

To take part in the silent auction for this EKOL Firat Compact 9mm PAK Front Firing Blank Gun you will need to email me and let me know what your top bid is for it. The person with the highest bid will become the new only once paid for.

There are a couple things to keep in mind:

  • Get your bids in by noon Monday December 23rd.

  • Shipping will be added to the cost which is $29

  • Payment must be made within 24 hours of notification via EMT (Email Money Transfer), details to follow.

  • This can be a Christmas gift to yourself but it is not likely you will receive it by Christmas.

Best of luck to all participants!

ASG Bersa BP9CC - CZ 75D Compact - CZ 75 P-07 Duty CO2 Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

2 Comments

First off I have reviewed all of these ASG guns in the BB version which I will link to below so you can read the full reviews. The main difference with this review is that I am reviewing the 6mm Airsoft versions and in the case of the ASG Bersa BP9CC and ASG CZ 75D Compact, the only difference is the ammo they shoot, with the ASG CZ 75 P-07 Duty, my Airsoft version is not blowback whereas the 4.5mm Steel BB version I reviewed earlier did have blowback operation.

My YouTube video for these ASG Airsoft versions does go into a lot of detail on each gun but in this written review I will keep to the basics since you can get most of the detailed information already in my 4.5mm Steel BB reviews for each gun.

Here are the links to my 4.5mm BB Reviews:

Below are some of the sepcifications for these ASG CZ and Bersa Airsoft Pistols:

  • All use 12 gram CO2 cartridges.

  • All shoot 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s.

  • All have working slides.

  • Bersa BP9CC has blowback action.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty & CZ 75D Compact are single and double action.

  • Bersa BP9CC is single action only.

  • FPS: (Bersa BP9CC 400 fps - CZ 75D Compact 425+ fps - CZ 75 P-07 Duty 480 fps).

  • Bersa BP9CC has a stick magazine with 15 round capacity.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty has a stick magazine with 16 round capacity.

  • CZ 75D Compact  has a full size metal drop out magazine with 15 round capacity.

  • All replicas of their modeled after firearms.

  • All are distributed by ASG (Action Sport Games) and made in Taiwan.

Pros:

  • Bersa BP9CC love the design and how compact it is.

  • Bersa BP9CC has good weight for its small size, metal slide, trigger, stick magazine, barrel, slide catch release.

  • Bersa BP9CC is the only one with blowback action.

  • CZ 75D Compact has a full size drop out metal magazine that holds CO2 and BB’s.

  • CZ 75D Compact has nice comfortable rubberized grips.

  • CZ 75D Compact is the only one with adjustable hop-up and adjustable rear sight.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty has the highest fps at 480 claimed.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty lots of metal parts: Slide, barrel, magazine, hammer, trigger, slide catch, safety, magazine release.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty has a really nice double action trigger.

Cons:

  • Bersa BP9CC slide only goes back part way, not a full cycle blowback operation.

  • Bersa BP9CC does not have adjustable hop-up or adjustable sights.

  • CZ 75D Compact has a plastic slide.

  • CZ 75D Compact is a bit light weight especially with the magazine out.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty does not have blowback operation.

  • CZ 75 P-07 Duty does not have adjustable hop-up or adjustable sights.

Make sure to watch my more detailed Vimeo Video Review for these ASG Airsoft Pistols as I cover much more info than this written article.

Umarex Walther CP99 Compact Recon BB Pistol Review

6 Comments

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: Umarex.

Model: CP99 Compact Recon Version.

Materials: Metal slide, polymer frame.

Weight: 1.8 pounds.

Barrel: 5 inches, non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: Steel BBs 4.5mm.

Ammunition Capacity: 18 rounds.

FPS: Up to 400.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex CP99 Compact Recon is amazing, it is short and light making it one of the best action shooters I own. You can fire this gun accurately and fast all day long.

Accuracy: Great! The addition of the Green Dot Scope and slightly longer barrel on the CP99 Compact Recon version work amazingly well, this is one of the most consistent BB shooter I own getting under 2 inch groups at will from 20 feet out.

Build Quality: Excellent, this BB gun is made in Japan and uses metal where it is really needed like in the slide, slide release, safety, trigger, magazine release, magazine and most of the mechanical parts. It's well made, well finished and feels great in the hand.

Realism: This Replica BB gun has many of the same characteristics of the actual 9mm P99 Compact with the exception of having a longer handle and much different safety mechanism. Umarex has even changed the design a bit with the newer CP99 Compacts and made the ejection port cut out adding to the realism of this BB shooter.

Available at: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Decent reproduction of the original Walther P99 Compact 9mm.

  • Would make an excellent training gun as it has a similar size, weight, and feel to the actual Walther P99 Compact 9mm handgun.

  • Blowback action is very firm adding to the realism of shooting this weapon.

  • Really good FPS, accuracy and CO2 efficiency for a blowback BB air gun.

  • The Recon version has a longer barrel adding a few more FPS to this already great air pistol.

  • Amazing light and fast trigger pull making it a blast to shoot.

  • Addition of the Sight Rail, Compensator and Green Dot scope really add to the esthetics and performance of this BB pistol.

Cons:

  • The Sight Rail, Compensator and most of the Green Dot scope are plastic but this does not seem to effect the performance in any way.

  • Safety lever seems out of place and takes away from the realism of this replica.

  • Switch on the Green Dot Scope is silver making it stand out from the rest of the all black air gun.

Comments:

I already loved the CP99 Compact non-Recon version so I had very high expectations for this BB gun to be at least as good if not better and I was not disappointed! I was actual surprised at the improvements that the longer barrel and Green Dot Scope made not only in a much higher Feet Per Second rating (about 75 fps), but also the much improved accuracy in what was already a decent shooter. For the additional $40, you get the Sight Rail which allows you to add multiple accessories if required. You get the Green Dot Scope that noticeably improved the accuracy, and you also get the compensator which hides the extra long barrel for more FPS.

Umarex Walther CP99 Compact Recon CO2 BB Pistol

No Comments

I've written a few posts on the Umarex Walther CP99 Compact. It was even featured in my very first YouTube video with my Umarex Walther PPK Full Auto BB Pistol. I do sell the CP99 Compact in my web-store but not the regular version, rather the Recon version. With the Recon version you get a few extras: The Sight Rail, a Red Dot Scope and a Compensator extension which I feel is better value over the standard version.

One thing that I noticed about the Compensator extension is that it's not just an add on simply for looks, this Recon version of the CP99 Compact has a longer barrel inside the compensator which should give the Recon version of the CP99 Compact a bit higher FPS. I will test this theory down the road with my Chrony Chronograph.

Enjoy the picture for now...

UMAREX WALTHER CP99 COMPACT BB GUN REVIEW

21 Comments

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer:Umarex.

Model:CP99 Compact.

Materials: Metal slide, composite frame.

Weight: 1.6 pounds.

Barrel: 3.5 inches, non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: Steel BBs 4.5mm.

Ammunition Capacity: 18 rounds.

FPS: 345.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex CP99 Compact is amazing, it is short and light making it one of the best action shooters I own. You can fire this gun accurately and fast all day long.

Accuracy: Good, I find the sights on the CP99 Compact set up to work really well with my shooting style. I don't have to make any adjustments and I'm able to get tight groups even when shooting fairly quickly.

Build Quality: Excellent, this BB gun is made in Japan and it shows, I have owned it for close to 5 years now and it still shoots just as good as the day I bought it. It's well made, well finished and feels great in the hand.

Realism: This Replica BB gun has many of the same characteristics of the actual 9mm P99 Compact with the exception of having a longer handle and much different safety mechanism. My particular version did not have a cut out ejection port either but I believe the newer models do have cut out ejection ports adding to the realism of this replica CP99 Compact BB gun.

Available at: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Decent reproduction of the original Walther P99 Compact 9mm.

  • Would make an excellent training gun as it has a similar size, weight, and feel to the actual Walther P99 Compact 9mm handgun.

  • Blowback action is very firm adding to the realism of shooting this weapon.

  • Decent FPS and CO2 efficiency for a blowback BB air gun.

  • Amazing trigger pull making it a blast to shoot.

  • Picatinny rail for accessories like a laser sight and/or tactical light.

  • Safety lever seems out of place and takes away from the realism of this replica.

Comments:

This fine Blowback BB gun was the airgun that got me back to being interested in Replica Airguns. I've put thousands of rounds through this BB gun and it hasn't always been treated with the greatest care, but still it has held up very well. The Umarex Walther CP99 Compact a really fun gun to shoot and is not only easy on the pocket book to purchase but also to shoot, as it easily gets 100 shots plus per CO2 cartridge.

Umarex Walther CP99 Compact Ejection Port Modification

6 Comments

You may be surprised to know that the Airgun that started off my collection was purchased only about 4 years ago. As a kid I had a few Airguns growing up and then suddenly in my late 30's I just picked it up again. Anyways the Airgun this post is focusing on is the Umarex Walther CP99 Compact. This post is not intended to be a review but in summary the CP99 Compact BB Blowback BB gun has one of the nicest trigger pulls in my collection. It is so much fun to shoot, it's very well made and is reasonably priced.

The one feature,or lack of a feature that I never really like about the Umarex CP99 Compact was the molded ejection port. In other words the ejection port is not cut out of the slide on this gun but instead is molded into the slide to look like an ejection port.

That said I have noticed a few of these Umarex CP99 Compacts sporting a cut out ejection port and so I thought to myself that maybe people have been cutting the ejection port out themselves? Hey I thought about giving it a try several times myself. So I took a walk over to the Umarex US website and low and behold if you click on the 360 view, you will see that it too has a cut out ejection port. The photos on their site do not show this new feature but rather the older molded version. I can not confirm that all new CP99 Compacts will in fact have the cut out ejection port, but it does look like Umarex has moved to this updated version…

So I thought enough is enough! It's time to pull out my tools and cut into my beloved CP99 BB gun. The best way to show you what transpired next is with a series of photos. At the end of about 2 hours of work I have to say I am very happy with the end result!

Worlds Smallest Full Auto BB Gun

This is a video I posted on YouTube a while back that has gotten a lot of views (Now Over 300,000). It's basically me and a friend shooting a couple of guns. The first set of guns (One in each hand - Tomb Raider Style) are two Walther CP99 Compacts made by Umarex. The CP99 Compact is a great little BB gun with a very fast and light trigger pull.

Next up is another Umarex product, a Walther PPK. This one is moded to fire Full Auto, making it one of the smallest Full Auto BB Guns. Too bad it's all over so fast! I'll look at doing some proper reviews of these fine Airguns down the road...
