Retay CS9 - Smith & Wesson CS9 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun Review

1 Comment

Type: Blank Gun.

Manufacturer:Retay.

Model:CS9.

Materials: Mostly Metal.

Weight: 2 pounds.

Barrel: Semi plugged - front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Action: Semi auto single action only.

Ammunition Type: 9mm P.A.K. blanks.

Ammunition Capacity: 13+1 round magazine.

FPS: N/A.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the CS9 is fairly light with a shorter pull. There is no double action on the Retay CS9 but it does have an exposed hammer making it easy to pull back and fire if you have a round already in the chamber but your gun is de-cocked.

Accuracy: N/A.

Build Quality: The build quality is similar to that of my EKOL blank guns which is what you would expect since they are both Turkish made guns. The Retay CS9 is well built and uses good quality materials with pretty decent fit and finish, this gun is mostly metal and has good heft for its small size weighing in at 2 pounds. My review unit is the Gloss black version but keep in mind we will be selling the CS9 in Matte Black and Satin only. The Retay CS9 performed very well for me and had no problems with chambering, firing and ejecting rounds when I tested it, just like the other Retay blank guns I tested before it

Realism: The Retay CS9, Smith & Wesson CS9 copy is a pretty good Smith & Wesson CS9 replica with the exception of the de-cocker and a few other minor differences. The basic gun shape and main features are similar to that of a Smith & Wesson CS9.

Purchased From: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Good hefty 2 pound weight.

  • Almost all metal build

  • Black finish looks really nice on this gun - Satin would give it a nice tow tone look also.

  • Decent replica of the Smith & Wesson CS9 semi auto pistol.

  • Smallish gun but still holds 13+1 double stack magazine.

  • Performed very well in my tests with no chambering, firing or ejection problems.

  • Easy to field strip with the supplied tool.

  • Fills the void the Zoraki 914 left behind in Canada.

Cons:

  • Barrel back pressure screw needs to be removed in order to use flare adaptor.

  • Could have been just a bit closer to the real CS9.

  • No Manual or cleaning rod included.

Comments:

I wasn't sure about the Retay CS9 at first and kind of preferred my Retay Baron HK and Eagle over the CS9 at first but this smaller Retay has really grown on me. It's almost the perfect size yet it retains a very compact frame while still having a mid sized guns weight and magazine capacity. And as mentioned, it kind of fills the void that the Zoraki 914 left behind when it was reclassified as a prohibited firearm in Canada. I will most likely be picking myself up a Satin version of this one to go with my black Retay CS9, hey you can't lose at this very good price.

Retay Baron HK - Sig Sauer P228 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun Review

15 Comments

Type: Blank Gun.

Manufacturer:Retay.

Model:Baron HK.

Materials: Mostly Metal.

Weight: 2.3 pounds.

Barrel: Semi plugged - front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Action: Semi auto single action only.

Ammunition Type: 9mm P.A.K. blanks.

Ammunition Capacity: 14+1 round magazine.

FPS: N/A.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Retay Baron HK is about light to medium with a fairly short pull. The actual real steel Sig Sauer P228 would have both single and double action but many semi auto guns shoot in single or double action only.

Accuracy: N/A.

Build Quality: The build quality is similar to that of my EKOL blank guns which makes sense since they are both Turkish made guns. The Retay Baron HK is well built and uses good quality materials with pretty decent fit and finish, this gun is almost all metal and has good heft to it weighing in at 2.3 pounds. The matte black finish on this gun is pretty close to what you would find on a blued gun but with less shine to it, keep in mind we will be selling the Baron HK's in Matte Black and Satin. The Retay Baron HK performed very well for me and had no problems with loading, firing and ejecting rounds when I tested it.

Realism: The Retay Baron HK Sig Sauer P228 copy is a really good Sig Sauer P228 replica. The grips could even almost be swapped with a real Sig Sauer P228 grip if the screw holes where just a bit closer to the center of the hand grip. The basic gun shape and main features are almost dead on to the real Sig Sauer P228 including the de-cocker, slide catch and take down leaver. Internally the gun does differ as the Baron HK has a single action only trigger and a fixed barrel.

Purchased From: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Good hefty 2.3 pound weight.

  • Matte black finish looks close to blued finish, satin finish also available.

  • Good replica of the Sig Sauer P228 semi auto pistol.

  • Working de-cocker.

  • 14+1 round double stack magazine similar to real steel version.

  • Performed very well in my tests with no chambering, firing or ejection problems.

  • Easy to field strip.

Cons:

  • Barrel back pressure screw needs to be removed in order to use flare adaptor.

  • Grips are a bit shiny and the texture takes some getting used to.

  • No Manual or cleaning rod included.

Comments:

This gun for me was another must have blank shooter as I already own a real steal 9mm version of this gun (My Norinco NP-34), I just really like the look of Sig Sauer semi auto pistols! I will be getting another Retay Barron HK but this time in the satin finish. Because I have the real gun version, I was able to see how really close this gun is to an actual Sig in looks weight and handling. As a training gun, this is ideal as there is much less risk when using blank guns for practicing things like holster draws or even basic gun control drills.

Retay Eagle - Desert Eagle 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun Review

22 Comments

Type: Blank Gun.

Manufacturer:Retay.

Model:Eagle.

Materials: Mostly Metal.

Weight: 3.1 pounds.

Barrel: Semi plugged - front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Action: Semi auto single & double action.

Ammunition Type: 9mm P.A.K. blanks.

Ammunition Capacity: 18+1 round magazine.

FPS: N/A.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Retay is about medium pull, it is a bit heavier in double action mode as would be expected and I found that the release is fairly near the very end of the pull. I'm pretty sure the real Desert Eagle only has single action operation but being able to shoot in both actions is kind of nice.

Accuracy: N/A.

Build Quality: The build quality is similar to that of my EKOL blank guns which makes sense since they are both Turkish made guns. The Retay Eagle is well built and uses good quality materials, this gun is almost all metal and has good heft to it weighing in at 3.1 pounds. The finish quality is typical of other Turkish guns - good but not perfect. The satin finish on this gun has a raw metal look but with a slight gold tint and a semi polished look, keep in mind we will be selling it in Matte Black, non-shiny Chrome and Nickel. The Retay Eagle performed very well for me and had no problems with loading, firing and ejecting rounds when I tested it.

Realism: The Retay Eagle Desert Eagle copy is a pretty decent Desert Eagle replica with a few small exceptions. Overall I would say it is slightly smaller than a real Desert Eagle and has a bit smaller handle which may be good for people with smaller hands and it also has 2 screws near the front of the slide on each side that would not be there on a real Desert Eagle.

Purchased From: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Good hefty 3.1 pound weight.

  • Satin finish looks good but the Nickel is going to look even better :)

  • Good replica of the Desert Eagle semi auto pistol.

  • Trigger is both single and double action.

  • 18 round magazine is very high capacity for a pistol.

  • Performed very well in my tests with no chambering, firing or ejection problems.

  • It's a Desert Eagle for goodness sake - isn't that enough!

Cons:

  • Slightly smaller in size then a real Desert Eagle?

  • The screws on the slide are a bit out of place and would look better color matched.

  • Barrel back pressure screw needs to be removed to use flare adaptor

  • No Manual or cleaning rod included.

Comments:

This gun was a must have blank gun for me, owning a real Desert Eagle is pretty much out of the question because they are not cheap to buy and operate. For a very small fraction of the price of a real Desert Eagle I get to own the next best thing and as a matter of fact, I may just buy one in each color since the price is very affordable! As with many of the blank guns, the Retay Eagle would make an excellent prop gun for TV or Movie scenes. And you can always impress you friends by pulling out the Retay Eagle and proclaiming "That's not a gun - This is a gun!"

Retay CS9 - Baron HK - Eagle 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun Preview

3 Comments

I will be doing full reviews of these three Retay guns; the CS9 (Smith & Wesson CS9 Copy), Baron HK (Sig Sauer P228 Copy), and the Eagle (Desert Eagle Copy). For know I wanted to at least give you a quick preview video of them. My full review videos will focus on each Retay blank gun individually and go into detail with shooting tests and Fields Strips when possible.

My basic first impressions of this new blank gun offering from Retay is that they are a welcome addition to our current blank gun offerings here in Canada and what I like most is that all three guns are very different in look and design then the EKOL guns we have had for some time now. As far as quality goes, I would say they are on par with the EKOL guns and being that they are made in Turkey this shouldn't be too unexpected.

Keep checking back as I will be reviewing all three Retay 9mm P.A.K. blank guns over the next little while.

Added Retay Eagle 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun to the Store

10 Comments

Last but not least and certainly not the smallest! I just added the Retay Desert to the Replica Airguns Store. And I am sure most of you can figure out what this 9mm P.A.K. blank shooter is a replica of... the infamous Desert Eagle! I wanted to make this one just a bit more special by also offering it in a shiny Nickel finish. It also comes in Matte Black and Chrome but keep in mind that Turkish Chrome is not a shiny Chrome, it's more like a soft metal look.The Retay Desert is being pre-sold at a special pre-sale savings of $44 off on this one, shipping right around October 20th.

The Retay Eagle is a very nice copy of the IMI Desert Eagle full size semi auto pistol. It is a mostly all metal 9mm P.A.K. blank shooter that is front firing and comes in a hard shell case with a flare adaptor. This blanks shooter can be shot in both single and double action and is a real handful!

Crosman - Kimar CK92 CO2 Beretta 92FS Pellet Pistol Review

6 Comments

Type: Pellet air pistol.

Manufacturer:Crosman & Kimar.

Model:CK92.

Materials: Mostly metal.

Weight: 2.6 pounds.

Barrel: 4.25 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, single and double action.

Ammunition Type: .177 cal. pellets.

Ammunition Capacity: 8 round rotary magazine.

FPS: 394.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman - Kimar CK92 is absolutely excellent! Single action is very light and smooth and double action is almost exactly the same. The CK92 has one of the lightest and smoothest double action trigers out of all my airguns and that's saying a lot!

Accuracy: I shot the Crosman - Kimar CK92 air pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position, and it performed well getting about a two inch grouping right close to the center, just to the right. Most of the rounds stayed in a one inch group while two rounds strayed away a bit. I had a very awkward grip due to my camera mount so I know this guns should get closer to a one inch grouping with some getting used to it and using a standard grip. The rear sight is adjustable for windage and elevation so hitting the bullseye would not take much work. My Chronograph testing started out a bit rough due to the 10 year absence of shooting this gun but once I blew out some of the cobwebs it settled in at around the 350 fps mark and I was also able to get 10 magazines worth of shots before I noticed a drop in performance.

Build Quality: The Crosman- Kimar CK92 is built like a tank, it is probably one of my heaviest pellet pistols weighing in at 2.6 pounds! The build quality and craftsmanship is very nice with most of the gun being made out of metal and only a couple parts made from plastic like the grips and part of the rear sight. You can really feel the quality of this gun when you pick it up and squeeze the trigger a few times.

Realism: The CK92 pellet air pistol is a very nice copy of the real steel Beretta 92FS and considering it was made some 10 years ago when most replica air guns still looked mostly like air guns. You really have to give Crosman and Kimar credit for making this gun so close to the actual Beretta 92FS. Everything is exactly where it would normally be on the real Beretta and most of the mechanical part are functional, even if they serve a different purpose as it is an airgun after all.

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • The price is right, especially for this condition of collectors item!

  • All metal very heavy and well made gun.

  • Pellet shooting with a rifled barrel.

  • Fully adjustable rear sight with windage and elevation.

  • Decent accuracy and power and CO2 usage.

  • CO2 screw and tab are hidden in the handle.

  • Excellent trigger pull in both single and double action.

  • Very good Beretta 92FS replica.

  • Comes in a plastic case.

  • Rare collectors opportunity.

  • Made in Italy

Cons:

  • Have to use narrow headed CO2, can be a bit tricky to load until you get used to it

  • This is a 10 year old gun and hard to tell how reliable it will be because of its age?

  • When they are gone, they are gone! No more in this kind of shape.

Comments:

This was a very different review for me to do, a part of me wanted to just put my two CK92's away in a safe place and just keep them as collectors guns but I was also very curious to see if the CK92 performed as well as it looked and felt. Curiosity got the best of me as you can see and I am glad I ended up testing at least my Chrome CK92 because it was a real joy to shoot and it didn't let me down in any way. I am not going to recommend the CK92 airgun for anyone who plans to shot it regularly because I really believe that 10 year old valves and seals have a lot more potential to fail then a new airgun and getting replacement part will not be easy for this very fine air pistol. That said, you may get lucky because it's a very well made air gun. Personally I am going to put both my Chrome and Black Crosman - Kimar CK92's in a nice safe place and treasure them like you would anything rare and valuable. I think these guns are selling at a steel of a price right now and when they are all gone I just know people will be offering me several times the price I paid for my personal Chrome and Black Crosman - Kimar CK92's, and I will tell you my answer right now... Sorry, these guns are not for sale.

Blank Gun Teaser - Retay CS9 - Baron HK - Eagle 9mm P.A.K.

19 Comments

I just got three new 9mm P.A.K. Blank guns to look over. These ones are from Retay, another Turkish company. Retay makes a Smith and Wesson CS9 copy, a Sig Suaer P228 copy, and a Dessert Eagle copy. And I have to say they look pretty darn good on first impression. Now I know I'm going to be getting emailed like crazy about whether we are going to be carrying these guns and you're just going to have to wait to find out. So stay tuned for more information to follow...

Here's some photos to keep you drooling for now!

Zoraki M906 Back in the Store - Very Limited Supplies!

3 Comments

This is going to be a rather short lived post because I think this will be the last of these very popular Zoraki M906 blank guns. I was only able get a small batch of them and based on all the request I have had since we ran out, I'm pretty sure they will be gone fairly quickly. So if you're one of the people who has been emailing me asking for one, this is probably your last chance to get one.

Guns for use in TV - Movie - Stage - Internet - Photo

No Comments

I get a fair bit of interest and questions from people in the TV, Movie, Stage, Internet and Photo business looking for guns they can use in their productions, so I thought I would put together an informative video to show them some options available to them at least here in Canada.

The problem is a lot of times a "Gun Handler" is required, as in many cases real firearms are used and very strict guidelines need to be in place for obvious safety reasons. This is most likely the best option in the case of a Matrix styled movie and an extensive amount of guns are required in the production. What if you only need a few guns and you want to keep your budget and complications to a minimum? Well there are other options and that's where I come in.

Watch this short Promotional Video for more information if you are looking for a simplified and easy solution for your realistic gun use in Movie, Stage, Internet and Photo productions.

Crosman Kimar CK92 .177 Caliber Pellet Pistols Now Available

4 Comments

Well it took a long time but the Crosman Kimar CK92 .177 caliber pellet pistols finally arrived from the Kimar factory and they are now on sale. The reason it took so long is because each and every one of them was inspected prior to the entire shipment being released. Guess that's a good thing at the end of the day and worth waiting for!

Originally we thought they where going to be brand spanking new but when they arrived the years sitting around in the Kimar factory has aged them just a bit but not like the age of a used gun for sure.

Because of this we have decided to sell them as Refurbished units and as a refurbished unit we have dropped the price just a bit on them and they are now $99 for the black and $119 for the Chrome. We also got less then we expected, I guess some did not pass the tests so we won't have these forever and they may go up near the end.

Just to summaries what the CK92 is:

  • A Crosman and Kimar joint production
  • Originally made from 2000-2001
  • .177 cal. Pellets
  • 8 Round magazine
  • CO2 Powered
  • 394 fps
  • 8.4 Inches long
  • Single and double action
  • Fully adjustable rear sight
  • All metal design
  • 2.6 Pounds (Heavy!)
  • Made in Italy
  • Beretta 92FS Replica
  • Available in Black and Chrome
  • A real collectors item!

Baikal (IZH) MP-655K CO2 Pellet and BB Gun Review

4 Comments

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: Baikal.

Model:MP-655K.

Materials: Weapons grade metal slide & polymer frame.

Weight: 1.5 pounds.

Barrel: 4.4 inches, metal-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, double and single action.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber lead pellets & 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 8 rounds rotary pellet magazine & 100 round BB hopper.

FPS: 360.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the MP-655K is in the medium range with the single action being a bit lighter due to less cocking effort required. There is some force required to rotate the rotary magazines when shooting both pellets and BB's. It's important to make sure you use pellets that fit the rotary magazine correctly or they may move around and cause the magazine to bind up requiring additional trigger force.

Accuracy: I found the Baikal MP-655K to be a good shooter, this airgun took me some time to get used to however, so make sure to give it some time and also make sure to try an assortment of pellets as they do effect the trigger pull and the trigger pull ultimately effects accuracy. I did get about a 2 inch 8 shot grouping from an unrested 20 foot out position but I know this gun is capable of much better results. BB's also did fairly well in my test results. My Chronograph testing also confirmed that you can expect to get feet per second rating in-between 300 and 360 fps when using both pellets and BB's.

Build Quality: Excellent, like just about all the Baikal products, these guns are built to very high standards. the designs are sometimes unusual but you can count on the quality to be top notch and in most cases there is little to no difference between the materials used in Baikal's real guns and their air guns.

Realism: The Baikal IZH MP-655K is closely based on the real steel Baikal Viking 9mm semi auto pistol, or (Yarygin pistol) the latest Russian standard military-issue side arm. As far is looking and feeling like a real gun, it sure plays the part. Both the air gun version and 9mm version have steel slides and polymer frames.

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Very high quality materials.

  • Tuff looking gun, looks and feels more like a real gun then an airgun

  • Unique design, only 100 round BB pistol that I know of.

  • Easy to load BB's, just dump them in and shoot.

  • Can shoot Pellets and BB's.

  • Shoots both in single and double action.

  • Fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

  • Magazine is easy to load CO2, also has storage for extra BB's.

  • Good for lefties too, ambidextrous safety and magazine release.

  • Made in Russia!

Cons:

  • You wWill have to read manual and get used to this guns operation.

  • A bit hard to load the pellet magazine at first.

  • Trigger is kind of funny and a bit hard on fingers.

Comments:

The Baikal MP-655K Pellet and BB Air pistol is another excellent product from Baikal, it is an extremely unique air gun in that it shoots both pellets with an 8 shot rotary magazine but can also shoot up to 100 BB's with its integrated 100 round BB hopper and special adapted magnetized rotary BB magazine! The quality of this gun is outstanding and there are tons of great features like the rifled barrel, fully adjustable sights, single and double action trigger, moving slide with slide catch, weapons grade materials and of course the ability to shoot both pellets and BB's. You are going to need to take some extra time to fully understand how to best use this air gun but the extra effort is well worth it in the end!

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman 1377 American Classic is non-adjustable but is short and light with virtually no creep at all, it's just right there! It makes for very accurate shot placement.

Accuracy: I found the Crosman 1377 to be an amazing target pistol, getting about a 1/2 inch grouping from 30 feet out in a semi-rested position. And I performed my accuracy test twice with the same result each time. I also put the America Classic through the Chrony Chronograph test using increasingly more pumps each time and got it up into the 460+ fps range with 15 pumps using 6.9 grain RWS lead pellets. Keep in mind this is the Canadianized version that has been release valve limited to under 500 fps, so over-pumping should not hurt this gun too much, but either way do so at your own risk as Crosman says it's a 10 pump gun...

Build Quality: The Crosman 1377 American Classic is not a fancy looking gun but it gets the job done with a mostly metal design and build. Remember this gun has been around for 40 years and has pretty much stayed the same so Crosman must be doing something right with it.

Realism: The Crosman 1377 pellet pistol is not a replica, it is a target airgun, so it looks like a target air pistol and for that we'll give it high marks ;)

Available at: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Very inexpensive target pistol at $59.

  • Amazing accuracy!

  • Ability to regulate power with the amount of pumps.

  • Mostly metal construction.

  • Rifled barrel.

  • Adjustable sights for windage and elevation.

  • Light and short single action trigger.

  • Would be good for small pest control because of its decent FPS and excellent accuracy for precise shot placement ability.

  • Lots of mods and upgrades available for this gun!

  • It has been around for 40 years!

Cons:

  • Trigger is a bit thin (but can be upgraded)

  • Sights are fully adjustable but a bit hard to adjust.

Comments:

The Crosman 1377 America Classic .177 caliber pellet pistol is a must have target air pistol, even though I own the much more full featured (and pricey!) Webley Alecto .22 caliber multi-pump pneumatic target air pistol, the Crosman 1377 is still great to own and shoot. I think one day I will pass my 1377 down to my son when he is ready to learn the art of accurate pistol target shooting. The fact that you can head out for the day with the 1377 America Classic in one hand and a tin of .177 caliber pellets in the other and shoot till you can't shoot any more, with no CO2 required makes it very inviting - and pretty much everything you point it at will get nocked down or nailed dead on.

4 Comments

OK, this is getting stupid now, sure the Valtro Airgun 92 is selling at the already low price of $119 - That's $30 off the regular price but I want to take it up a notch and really sell a bunch of these well made Italian Beretta 92FS styled air pistols. So for a limited time you can get yourself this 14 shot, double CO2 .177 caliber pellet shooting single and double action pistol for $50 off the regular price! Don't kick yourself later for not doing it!

Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 CO2 Airgun Review

11 Comments

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.
Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.
Model: Smith & Wesson M&P 45.
Materials: Plastic (polymer) and metal construction.
Weight: 1.35 pounds.
Barrel: 3.3 inches, metal rifled.
Propulsion: CO2 x 1.
Action: Semi auto, single and double action.
Ammunition Type: .177 caliber Pellets and 4.5mm BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 8 shot rotary magazine.
FPS: 360.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 is better then with the Umarex PPQ and not only because you also get a single action trigger with the S&W M&P 45 but the double action trigger is also smother with less force required. Shooting this gun pre-cocked in single action mode is great for when you want to zone in on a target but you can always shoot double action when it's time to just blast!
Accuracy: I shot this air pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position, and it performed well getting a decent 2 inch grouping with both the pellets and the BB's very close to the center of the target. I found it performed equally as well in both single and double action. As I shot this gun I seemed to get more focussed and I ended up getting tighter groupings with it. The sights can be adjusted for windage if your aim is off to one side or the other. My Chrony Chronograph testing using 6.9 grain lead pellets and standard weight BB's averaged about the same in the 330-340 fps.

Build Quality: This is an almost all external polymer air gun with a good deal of metal components on the inside giving the S&W M&P 45 a decent overall weight and heft. I actually felt the stated weight seemed a bit low, it would be interesting to put this one on a scale and find out for sure? Some of the external metal parts worth noting are the safety switch, slide release, and trigger. The fit and finish is very good on the PPQ and the plastic is the good stuff just like the similarly made Umarex PPQ.
Realism: The Umarex S&W M&P 45 is a licensed replica of the actual Smith & Wesson M&P 45 semi auto pistol. It is a very close looking copy with the exception of the missing extractor pin and right side slide release. There is a lot of attention to detail that helps make this gun very believable like the large diameter barrel opening and Smith and Wesson markings throughout the airgun!

Pros:

  • Very reasonable price for a well made full featured airgun.
  • Excellent reproduction of the real S&W M&P 45 semi auto pistol.
  • Shoots both pellets and BB's.
  • Rifled barrel.
  • Easy to use yellow dot sights adjustable for windage.
  • Slide catch and safety are realistic and functional.
  • Single and double action trigger.
  • Well designed CO2 access both hides the CO2 and makes it easy to install.
  • Good combination of power, accuracy and CO2 efficiency - I got 10 good magazines
  • Even though there is a lot of plastic on the outside, there is a lot of metal on the inside giving this airgun some good weight and heft.

Cons:

  • The plastic exterior may put off some customers looking for metal guns.
  • Missing extractor pin takes a bit away form the realism.
  • Could have just a bit more power - would be worth getting less shots per CO2.

Comments:
The Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 Pellet and BB CO2 air pistol really impressed me. I was already fairly impressed with the Umarex PPQ and how far a little bit of money went with that very similarly designed Umarex model. But I have to say for me the S&W M&P 45 has the clear advantage mainly because of the addition of the single action trigger. The Umarex S&W M&P 45 really has a lot going for it: Great entry level price point, it shoots both Pellets or BB's, it has a rifled barrel, an adjustable rear sight, good accuracy with decent power and CO2 efficient and great looks. As with the Umarex PPQ, these qualities make it very easy to overlook the mostly plastic exterior!
