Before I get into this Field Test Shooting Video for the Bug-A-Salt 3.0, make sure to watch my Table Top Video Review for it where I go into more details and specifications along with some nice close up video of it. In this Field Test Outdoor Shooting Video I test out the Bug-A-Salt 3.0 on some wrapping paper (Wrapping Tissue Paper) from various distances to see what damage the Bug-A-Salt 3.0 does to it. You do really need to get in pretty close to see significant damage, but if you where a small bug you would at bare minimum be stunned and immobilized waiting for that fatal kill shot.
I was hoping to go on a kind of Bug Safari Hunt out in the yard, so I did a dry run without my cameras running and I quickly found out that bugs in the wild are extremely elusive. They much prefer the comfort of your home which is of course the ideal location for using the Bug-A-Salt 3.0, but not great for shooting a video…
I was not able to record velocity or accuracy for that matter using the Bug-A-Salt 3.0 as it is more like a salt shotgun but as fate would have it, one very unlucky fly did land near by while I was recording, and it met its fate for the sake of this video. I also vaporized some butter cups (These are small yellow flowers that grow wild in the grass). All in all I was able to showcase the effectiveness of the Bug-A-Salt 3.0. My advice is to get in nice and close if you want a one shot kill, or you will have to take some follow up mercy shots.
This is part 2 of my 2 part Field Test for the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Rubber Ball Less Lethal Pistol. In this video (Part 2), I test out 2.7 gram rubber/steel balls (metal core) to find out what the velocity and accuracy is along with the overall joules energy rating. Umarex claims around 11 joules using the 1.6 gram standard rubber balls, I do expect less velocity and possibly less energy downrange with the heavier 2.7 gram ammunition. While I test out the velocity with my Chronograph, I also aim at a paper target setup 30 feet away to see just how accurate this ammo type is, and hopefully I get all 4 of the max rounds close to where I am aiming on the target.
Starting with velocity or power, I was hoping to get into the 250+ fps so I could get somewhere near the claimed 11 joules, but the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol shot more in the higher 100’s resulting in a three shot average of 176 fps. I did chronograph all 4 shots and they were somewhat close in velocity to each other: 159, 187, 176, 180 fps. Even then the average Joules was only around 4 which is a pretty far off the claimed 11 joules and even less than the 5 Joules I got using the standard all rubber 2.6 gram rubber balls. I did use a brand new CO2 and it was not exactly cold in my testing environment so I am too sure what caused the lower results from both ammo types?
While I was recording the velocity I was simultaneously recording the same 4 shots on the target and I did mange to get all 4 shots on my 8x11 paper target fairly well centered with a grouping with three of the 4 shots all within about 2.5 inches of each other adn very well center to the bullseye. One shot did hit a bit lower extending the group to around 5 inches. If this was an intruder I would have for sure been able to hit them easily at 30 feet away all within their main torso area. So in terms of accuracy with both ammo types, the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol was competent when using both the standard rubber balls and the rubber/steel balls I used in this review.
As mentioned in video 1 of this 2 part series, I do like the smaller size of the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol over the non-compact version but it does seem to be down significantly on power as compared to its larger brother adn this was the case using both ammo types. I am not sure if it would be a good deterrent based on the power output I got in my Field Tests. I am sure it would not want to be on the receiving end of this Less Lethal Pistol, perhaps it the intended vital was not wearing any thick clothing it would deter them but even a light jacket would probably stop most of the impact. Maybe at close range some head and face shots would get the job done, but in the heat of the moment I would not count on being able to make those type of consistent shots. My advice is if you want to use the the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Rubber Ball Less Lethal Pistol as intended, then go with the non compact version as it does hit the claimed power rating and then some.
This is part 1 of my 2 part Field Test for the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Rubber Ball Less Lethal Pistol. In this video (Part 1), I test out the included 1.6 gram solid rubber balls to find out what the velocity and accuracy is along with the overall joules rating. Umarex claims around 11 joules using the 1.6 gram rubber balls. While I test out the velocity with my Chronograph, I also aim at a paper target setup 30 feet downrange to see just how accuracy it is, and if I can get all 4 of the max rounds close to where I am aiming. In Part 2 I swap out the 1.6 gram rubber balls for 2.7 gram rubber'/steel balls that have a metal internal core.
Starting with velocity or power, I was hoping to get into the 300+ fps so I could get somewhere near the claimed 11 joules, but the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol shot more in the mid 200’s resulting in a three shot average of 255 fps. I did chronograph all 4 shots but the last shot was really low for some reason, so I tossed that one out to give the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol the benefit of the doubt. Even then the average joules was only 5 which is a far cry to the claimed 11 joules. I did use a brand new CO2 and it was not exactly cold in my testing environment so I am too sure what caused the lower result?
As I mentioned, while I was recording the velocity I was simultaneously recording the same shots on the target and I did mange to get all 4 shots on my 8x11 paper target fairly well centered with a grouping of about 6-7 inches apart. If this was an intruder I would have for sure been able to hit them easily at 30 feet away all within their main torso area. So in terms of accuracy the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol was very usable.
I do like the smaller size of the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol over the non-compact version but it does seem to be down significantly on power as compared to its larger brother. I am not sure if it would be a good deterrent based on the power output I got in this Field Test. I am sure it would not be enjoyable being on the receiving end of this Less Lethal Pistol, but if the intended victim is wearing any type of heavy clothing I don’t think they would be that concerned by this Airgun. Maybe at close range some head and face shots would get the job done, but in the heat of the moment I would not count on being able to make those type of consistent shots. My advice is if you want to use the the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Rubber Ball Less Lethal Pistol as intended, then go with the non compact version as it does hit the claimed power rating and then some.
Type:Airsoft AEG Rifle. Manufacturer: Specna Arms. Model: SA-FX11 FLEX. Materials: Nylon Reinforced Polymer, Zinc Alloy, and Steel Construction. Weight: 5.4 pounds (2.45 kg). Total Length: 27.5-31 inches (70-79cm). Barrel Length: 11.5 inches (29cm). Barrel: Inner 6.03mm tight bore barrel non rifled. Propulsion: AEG. Action: Semi and full auto single action only (SA ETU™ Optical Electronic System: Optimizes trigger response and improves lifespan). Hop-up: Rotary adjustable hop-up via ejection port. Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 380 round full size drop out AR style plastic magazine. FPS: 380.
Trigger Pull: The trigger on the Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle is as you would expect from an AEG Airsfot rifles as it is essentially an on/off trigger that completes a circuit that signals the MOSFET controller, in this case it is the X-ASR from the Polish GATE brand. Which is claimed to improve the response to the trigger and the life of the electronics and battery. The left side controls offer safety, semi auto and full auto positions for easy access to all shooting options.
Accuracy: I have not shot the Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle so far or tested it out in the Sea Can indoor shooting range. So I have no real idea in terms of accuracy or if it is close to the claimed 380 fps be see no reason why it should not easily achieve that velocity and also get good accuracy results based on other Specna Arms Field Test Shooting Reviews I have already made. I will be making a full dedicated Field Test Shooting Video for it as soon as I am able to, so stay posted for that one…
Build Quality: The Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle is on the lower price point but don’t let that make you think it is also lower in quality. There have been some compromises made so you will see a bit more plastic in this build, but even then it is high quality Nylon Fiber enforced plastic. Aluminum and Zink alloy are used for the barrel, flame damper, enlarged reloading handle, dummy breech block and manipulators and charging handle. All screws, pins, the cartridge ejection window and the dummy slide are made of steel. It also comes with a Factory-installed MOSFET X-ASR from the Polish GATE brand and SA ETU™ Optical Electronic System that optimizes trigger response and improves lifespan of this product.
Realism: The Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle is based on the AR M15 platform which makes it very ergonomic and easy to use but a bit more classic and not as modern as some of the newer AR15/16’s. You have full realistic controls just like you would find on a real steel version of the same rifle (charging handle, dust cover, safety selector, magazine release, adjustable sights front and back, removable carry handle. You can also customize the Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle with real steel accessories like the rear stock, pistol grips, you could even put a quad rail on it if you want to. Being that it has a plastic receiver it does come in a little bit lighter but not by a lot.
Pros:
Classic AR M15 look to it if you prefer that style, not overly modern.
Quality components throughout even in the lower priced point (FLEX).
ESA™ quick spring change system makes spring changes quick and easy.
Comes with two springs for potential indoor and outdoor usage.
Plastic parts are Nylon Fiber reenforced making them very durable.
Fully adjustable peep sight with two aperture positions.
No orange tip.
6 position rear stock for various shoulder pull lengths.
Metal V2 Gearboxes with metal gears and mostly all metal parts inside.
Easy access to motor for any possible trouble shooting you may need to do.
SA ETU™ Optical Electronic System: Optimizes Trigger Response And Improves The Lifespan.
Factory-installed MOSFET X-ASR from the Polish GATE brand.
Cons:
Plastic receiver.
Not many mounting locations for adding accessories unless you take the carry handle off, then you could add a red dot or optical sighting system.
You will need a more compact and specific battery size/type with this style of AR AEG as the battery goes in the small diameter buffer tube.
The Specna Arms SA-FX11 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle in my opinion coming in at just over $200 at the time of the making of this video and has an extremely good value based on price versus what you get in quality and features for this AEG Airsoft Rifle. Other than having a bit more plastic build, quality is excellent throughout. the electrons and gearbox also are not entry level by any means, and this all comes from the well proven Specna Arms brand. If you are OK with a little bit more dated look (which I kind of like being a bit more classic myself), then this is a great AEG Airsoft Rifle for the money. Later on if you want to add some more modern components to bring it back to a more recent decade, than you could easily do so.
In this part two video of our three part video series covering all the different ammo and barrel types that can be used with the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun, I test out the .50 caliber Paintball (Rubber Ball) barrel and ammo option to see what velocity and accrual I can get from the Alias Gem CO2 Airgun. If you have too already watch my Table Top Video and or my BB and Airsoft Field Test Shooting Video, then make sure to do so when you get a chance. Right off the bat I want to say that the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is not at all an Airgun you are going to want to buy in terms of raw performance as you will see in this video and my other Field Test Videos for it in this series. It is however a very unique Airgun you can shoot up close with and have some fun shooting whatever ammo you decide to go with on that given day.
Starting with velocity, I should have put a brand new CO2 in the Airgun as I end up finding out only getting three good shots out of my remain CO2, because of the super short barrel and rather inefficient use of the CO2, you only get around 12-15 full use shots out of the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun and that is with the larger 12 gram CO2! For that reason I only based my average velocity through my Chronograph on the first three shots I took, which were all pretty close in velocity. Here are the results: 200, 207, 203 with an average of 203 fps using fairly light weight .50 Caliber Rubber Balls. Again the super short barrel does not do this Airgun any favors in the power department.
Moving onto the accuracy portion of this test, well you really don’t need to watch this part as I was not able to hit my 8x11 target setup 30 feet away. Part of the problem is that there are no sights on the .50 Caliber Paintball Barrel and the other factor is that the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun kind of throws rounds all over the place no matter what ammo or barrel type you choose, so trying to figure out exactly where to aim is kind of hard and so I may have simply not been aiming in the best location on the target to get best results. In hind sight I probably should have just shot this Airgun a lot closer than I do when making my standard Field Test Shooting Videos, but this is my standard shooting location and so I stuck with it.
After I make my videos, I sometimes see things I did not notice when I was making them, and in this case I can see that the .50 caliber Paintball Rubber Rounds I was using did not always go as deep in the barrel as you need to front load them and kind of tap them and let gravity help ease them in. I should have perhaps used a pencil or something like it to push the Rubber Balls all the way in for more consistent performance in terms of velocity and accuracy. Well now we all know! You are not going to be using this Paintball Airgun for any kind of Paintball war games and so in my opinion I would go with the included 6mm Airsoft BB’s for shooting in areas where a 4.5mm metal BB may not be good idea. The 6mm Plastic Airsoft BB’s seemed to have the highest velocity averaging 383 fps with .25 gram Airsoft BB’s and I was able to get some of them on the paper target at 30 feet away.
This Field Test Shooting Video for the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is part one of three videos where I will be testing out the included 4.5mm Steel BB Barrel and 6mm Airsoft Barrel options that come with it in the box. I also have the .50 Caliber Paintball and rocket Barrels that I will be testing in Field test Videos two and three consecutive to this video. Normally I first test velocity and then I test accuracy, but in this three part video series I test velocity and accuracy at the same time being that the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is a single shot pistol. I get the same end testing results as I would normally get, but I do only shoot 5 rounds at the target, spoiler alert the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is not all that accurate, so I am not sure if adding another 5 more shots would have shown us a different result.
In terms of velocity, keep in mind the barrel is super short on the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun at just over 3 inches when using the 4.5mm Steel BB, the 6mm Airsoft, and the .50 caliber Paintball Barrels. That said with 4.5mm Steel BB’s I did average 263 fps and with 6mm .25 gram Plastic Airsoft BB’s, I averaged 383 fps which was actually pretty good. The temperature was mid warm so pretty close to room temperature when I performed my test.
Accuracy was not nearly as good as I was hoping for, I was not expecting stellar results and I would say I got even less than stellar results only getting 3 of the 4.5mm Steel BB’s on the paper target and only 2 of the 6mm Airsoft BB’s on the target. I did struggle with exactly where I needed to aim the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun as BB’s were so inconsistent. Perhaps if I was able to figure out the ideal aim point, I would have had more BB’s land on the target. Even the sights are hard to use with such a small Airgun having a super short barrel. If you are hoping the .50 caliber Paintball rounds and Rockets (Bolts) do better, don’t count on it…
All in all Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is a super cool and unique Airgun that has a lot of options when it comes to ammo choice. I would not recommend using it at anywhere close to 30 feet away as I did in this test, this is how my Airgun range is setup. It would be a lot better at 20 feet or even 10 feet since it is not a lot of fun if when you shoot at something, you don’t really ever hit it ;) Stay posted for my upcoming Field Test Shooting Videos for the .50 Caliber Paintballs and the Rockets (Bolts). I have also made a Table Top video you can check out if you are interested in more of the details and specifications along with some nice close up video of the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun.
In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the real world shooting performance of the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle by shooting 5 rounds through my Chronograph and averaging them out. I then shot the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle in both semi auto and full auto to find out what kind of groupings I can achieve shooting at a paper target setup 30 feet away. I’ve already made my Table Top Video where I go into the details and specifications along with some closer in video, so if that is more what you are looking for, then checkout my Table Top Video Review here.
Being an AEG Airsoft rifle the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle is somewhat expected to get consistent velocity readings as there is no effect on an AEG when it comes to the gun cooling down from either Gas or CO2 and the velocity dropping. I chose .25 gram Airsfot BB’s since I was out of .20 gram Airsoft BB’s on this day, so I would expect a little bit higher velocities if using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s, so keep that in mind with this test. As expected I got very close readings when I shot 5 rounds through the Chronograph to get an average for them. Here is each shot listed in order and then my 5 shot average velocity: 361, 360, 365, 364, 361 averaging 362 fps. All within 4 fps of each other, kind of as expected but still very good. You can swap out the spring with the included M90 spring for somewhat lower velocities if you like.
Since the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle can shoot in both semi and full auto, I tested it first using the built in pop-up sights shooting 10 rounds in semi auto, again using the .25 gram Airsoft BB’s and it shot a nice accurate 2 inch grouping at my target setup 30 feet away. I do use a rested shooting position sitting on a stool in the back and my hands rested on a sandbag up front which still includes a bit of human factor but not a lot. I did not adjust the sights at all and shot the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle right out of the box. It did shoot about 5-6 inches low on my target setup 30 feet away, but was good left to right. I could easily adjust my aim point using the adjustments on the pop-up sights or through a red dot or optical scope on it. My Full Auto test was also very accurate with the grouping not really opening up at all, even with an additional 50 or so full auto shots! This may be one of my most accurate full auto Airsoft Rifles?
The Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle is a good value AEG Airsoft Rifle made for both beginners and seasoned Airsoft enthusiasts. It performs really good with quality internals where they are needed, and it is nice and compact with three color choices, black, black and tan and the one I used here in pink and black. If you are just starting out you can’t really go wrong with the Specna Arms SA-FX02 FLEX AEG Airsoft Rifle when considering price verses performance. As a more advanced Airsoft player you may just want something to use when you know it may get a beat up or exposed to harsh environments, so why not pickup something you don’t have to be as concerned about? Either way a great choice based on price and performance alone.
Before I get into this Field Test Video Review for the Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 FS Spring Clear Airsoft Pistol, make sure to watch my Table Top Video for it if you want information like Specifications and Details along with some more closer up video of it. The Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 FS Spring Clear Airsoft Pistol for some people will be a pretty entry level BB Pistol many might overlook but if you are simply looking for a Beretta 92 based Airsoft Pistol that is relatively inexpensive to buy and cheap to shoot. And if you don’t need quick semi auto shooting or anything ultra realistic, then the this Spring Airsoft Pistol could be an option for you.
In this video I test out the velocity, accuracy and I basic operation, so let’s get started with the velocity or fps portion of the testing. I loaded up the Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 FS Spring Clear Airsoft Pistol with a full 12 rounds of .12 gram Airsoft BB’s in the drop out magazine. I shot 5 rounds through my Chronograph hitting the following fps: 285, 288, 289, 292, 289, which averaged 289 fps. Umarex claims a velocity of up to 260 fps which I shot a bit over, but if you do plan on using more standard heavier .20 gram Airsoft BB’s, that numbers going to drop a bit perhaps in the mid or lower 200’s.
I then placed a brand new paper target on my backstop 30 feet down range and proceeded to shoot a full 12 round magazine into it using a semi rested shooting position, hands rested on a sand bag up front and sitting on a stool in the back. This generally gives me good stability while performing these field tests but there is always some human factor to take into consideration. I did not get a super impressive grouping, the Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 FS Spring Clear Airsoft Pistol likes to fling Airsoft BB’s around a bit resulting in around a 7 inch grouping. You can see the BB’s curl as they fly through the air. Using heavier Airsoft BB’s should help tighten up the grouping somewhat, but for all intents and purposes I did get all the shots onto my paper target which would represent a person’s mid section well. So if you were using this simple Airsoft Pistol for some fun war games with your friends, you would be able to hit a person easily from closer in ranges.
The Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 FS Spring Clear Airsoft Pistol is really made for having some fun close range war games with your friends or even shooting pop cans I would say within 20 feet or so. It works pretty good overall with consistent velocity and predictable accuracy even if it is not super accurate. The fact that it is a clear gun makes it a lot less intimidating and for those with parents sitting on the fence about allowing their kids to get an Airsoft Gun, this one may nudge them into the more willing category. So it may come down to the simple fact that you can get this gun or no gun, if your parents are the limiting factor?
In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the shooting performance of the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle by shooting 5 rounds through my Chronograph and averaging them out. I then shot the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle in both semi auto and full auto to find out what kind of groupings I can get shooting at a paper target setup 30 feet away. I have already made a Table Top Video where I go into the details and specifications along with some nice close up video, so if that interests, you then checkout the Video Review here.
I do have to say I had to rerecord my Review Video a couple of times as the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle did not like my first choice of Airsoft BB brand, as it was not consistently loading BB’s which made testing near impossible. I kind of gave up on it and thought it may be defective, but then I switched up Airsoft BB Brand and this seemed to fix the problem entirely. This goes to show that finding the correct Airsoft BB’s for your particular Airsoft Rifle or Airgun can be very important in operation and performance. I did end up using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s for all of my Testing in this video review which means my Chronograph rating will be a bit lower than if I had used the standard .20 gram Airsoft BB’s I generally use. That said I did get an average velcoity using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s of 365 fps, here are the readings for each shot… 367, 367, 364, 364, 363 fps. You can see the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is very consistent in terms of velocity with only a 4 fps difference between all 5 shots.
Since the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle can shoot in both semi and full auto, I tested it first using the built in optical scope shooting 10 rounds in semi auto again using the .25 gram Airsoft BB’s and it shot a very accurate 1 inch grouping at my target setup 30 feet away. I do use a rested shooting position sitting on a stool in the back and my hands rested on a sandbag up front. I did not adjust the scope and just shot the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle right out of the box, it did shoot about 3 inches low on my target setup 30 feet away, but was bang on left to right. I could easily adjust my aim point with the optical scope settings. By pulling the trigger in all the way, I am able to shoot in full auto which is nice not having to use a selector switch. My Full Auto test was also very accurate with the grouping opening up a bit to around 2.5 to 3 inches but I did shoot at least another 40-50 shots so that is expected.
I don’t really know what to think of the look of a Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle, to me thy look like something out of a sci-fi movie and personally it is not the most attractive Rifle to me. Functionally it works well being a Bullpup design which allows for a shorter rifle with a longer barrel. I for sure can not complain with how the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle performed as the velocity is exactly where I would want it to be and accuracy was as good as any Airsoft Rifle I have test. The Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle is a bit picky with Airsoft BB choice, so make sure to test out your Airsoft BB’s before committing to buying a bunch. If you do like the look and style of a Steyr AUG based Rifle then I would for sure recommend buying yourself the Novritsch SSR77 A1 AEG Airsoft Rifle as it is ready to go out of the box with no upgrading required.
In this Field Test Shooting video for the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle, I test it out to see what to expect in terms of velocity in fps by shooting several rounds through my Chronograph and averaging them out. I also shot the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle both in semi and full auto on a paper target setup 30 feet away to see if I can get a decent grouping in both semi and full auto. If you want information like details and specifications, then checkout my Table Top Review for the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rife located at this link.
Starting with power and velocity, I loaded up the magazine with as much gas as I could get into it, along with enough .20 gram Airsoft BB’s to average out at least 5 shots. I ended up using 6 shots in total for an average of 393 fps. Each individual shot was as follows… 427, 383, 368, 410, 406, 363 FPS. The temperature in the Indoor Airgun Sea Can Shooting Range was around 20 degree Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit, so not overly warm or cool, In cooler or warmer temperatures the velocity will go up and down a little bit.
Moving on to accuracy, I first performed my test with the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle in semi auto to see what kind of 10 shot grouping I could get. I did not make any sight adjustments and just shot it right out of the box. My standard test is from 30 feet out shooting using a seated position in the back with my hands on a sand bag up front, this allows for a fairly stable shooting position. I did up the weight of my Airsoft BB’s to .25 grams which can help a little bit with accuracy, but I would suggest going even heavier with this Airsoft Rifle, perhaps try out .30 gram Airsoft BB’s. That said I was able to get a 3 inch 10 shot grouping that shot several inches below the bullseye I was aiming at, and just slightly to the left but not by much. I then switched over to full auto and probably should have aimed higher since this Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifle really kicks and moves around. Unfortunately most of my full auto shots went low and did not record on the paper so it is hard to say what the spread of the group was in Full Auto but I know it did open up a lot.
I really enjoy shooting and testing out Gas Blowback Airsoft Rifles since most are generally AEG and don’t have all the recoil and blowback action. GBB Airsoft Rifles not only look and feel much more real, that blowback action simulates the trigger feel and shooting experience so much more. Compared to an AEG velocity is less consistent not only between shots but as you shoot the gas cools down the Airgun resulting in slower and slower velocity which is even more noticeable in full auto when using a GBB Airsoft Rifle. I would personally use the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle mostly in semi auto as it shot very reliably in semi auto, full auto is a bit chaotic and your accuracy really suffers in full auto. The Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle is about as realistic as you can get to experiencing a real steel AR type Rifle but it is fairly expensive at the end of the day and in terms of perforce you will get more out of even a middle of the road AEG Airsoft Rifle. So if realism is more important than performance and lower cost, I would go with something like the Umarex HK 416 A4 GBB Airsoft Rifle.
Another Field Test Shooting Video to showcase a full blowback CO2 Airsoft Pistol, in this Shooting Review I find out if the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol can perform up to par in terms of power and accuracy. I test the velocity using my Chronograph shooting five shots through it and average them out. I then test the accuracy by shooting ten rounds at a paper target and see how close we get to the center out of the box, and how tight I can get that grouping to shoot for me. If you want information like details, specifications and closer up video for the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol then make sure to watch my Table Top Video for it located here.
In the velocity portion of my Field Test Shooting Video I put a brand new 12 gram CO2 cartridge in the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol and fire off five rounds using .20 gram Airsfot BB’s. The temperature was right around room temperature for this test, so about 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. My five shot average was 351 fps with each shot reading: 364, 362, 352, 341, 336 fps. Right about what I was expecting for this CO2 Airsoft Pistol. Keep in mind it does come with a barrel extension which when installed will add some additional power/velocity but I don’t think having a long thin metal inner barrel sticking out of an Airsoft gun is really very practical.
Moving on to the accuracy portion of my Filed Test for the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, again it performed well for me. My ten shot grouping from 30 feet away with the exception of one flyer got me a 2 inch grouping which was pretty close to the center bullseye. Just a bit to the left if anything. The flyer was probably my fault as there is always going to be some human factor when performing an accuracy shooting test like this. I do try to get as stable as possible by sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. But a respectable grouping for sure even with the flyer.
One thing I can say about the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is that it is a joy to shoot, it has a lot of felt blowback recoil and the trigger is really nice being a 1911 rather short and light single action trigger. I do like 1911 pistols, this one is on the more modern side of things so if you are a purest it may not be your choice when it comes to a 1911 but in my opinion it is a really flashy looking 1911. If you want to tone it down just a bit, you could take off the compensator off which will perhaps drop a little bit of front end weight and reduce the length of it. Performance wise it is right up there with any Airsoft Pistol I have tested so keep it in mind if you’re in the market for something like this.
In this Field Test Shooting Video Review I test out the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol to find out what to expect in terms of velocity in fps, and accuracy shooting at a paper target setup 30 feet away. I have already made my Table Top review for this KJWorks Full Blowback Airsoft Pistol, so if you are interested in finding out the details specifications along with some nice 4k close up video, then make sure to watch my KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review located here.
As always, I install a brand new 12 gram CO2 cartridge and place five rounds through my chronograph using .20 gram Airstot BB’ s and average them out to see what the actual velocity is. I was able to achieve a five shot average of 349 fps. Consistency between each shot was very good, here are the actual velocities for all five shots: 348, 344, 346, 356, 351 fps. The temperate in the Replica Airguns Sea Can Shooting Range was right around 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep in mind the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol does come with a barrel extension that when installed will increase the velocity to some degree but I did not test with it as most people will not use it anyway.
Moving on to the accuracy portion of the Field Test Shooting Video, I carefully placed 10 shots on a fresh paper target setup 30 feet away. My shooting position was fairly stable with me sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. this is not perfect, but it does give us a good idea of what we can expect in general. Seven of the ten shots all placed around 1.5 inches apart near the top of the target and slightly to the left with two shots shooting a little bit lower extending the grouping to about 2.5 inches. I did have one flyer come out of the tighter grouping even lower and to the left that did extend the grouping to about 4 inches in total. The KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol does not have adjustable sights but you could dial in the hop-up to perhaps lower or higher the shot placement depending on your shooting distance.
In terms of my shooting experience for the KJWorks M9A1 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, it shot as expected with no issues and the blowback action is super snappy with a lot of simulated recoil feel to it. The single action trigger is not super light but light enough for sure to get well placed shots or faster paced action shots. Some Airguns just make you smile a little bit when you shoot them, and this one of those Airsoft guns. It does come in different color schemes, but I do like the tan version I was testing out in this video. If you are looking for a fairly classic Beretta M9A1 that is not too moderned out, then this version would be a good choice.
In this Indoor Field Test Shooting Review, I put the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol through its paces and find out what we can expect in terms of power and accuracy by first averaging 5 shots through my Chronograph to see what the real world velocity is in fps. I then shoot 10 rounds into a paper target setup 30 feet down range to see if I can get a decent grouping somewhere near the bullseye out of the box. If you are looking for specification and details along with some closer up video of the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol then make sure watch my Table Top Review located here.
First up I performed the power test using .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. I put a brand new 12 gram CO2 in the pistol and averaged the first 5 shots which gave me a 318 fps average. The actual shoots were as follows: 331, 322, 315, 312, 308. I didn’t take notice of the temperature but in generally I keep my Sea Can at around room temperature so not overly warm or cold. There is a barrel extension that comes with this Airsoft Pistol which will give you a bit higher velocity when installed, but I did not test the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol with the barrel extension on it as mine was broken.
Moving on to the accuracy portion of the testing I setup a fresh paper target 30 feet away and put 10 rounds into it while sitting on a stool in the back with my hands resting on a sand bag up front. This gives me pretty good stability but is not perfect and there is always going to be some human factor that can effect accuracy a little bit. That said I did manage to get around a 2.5 inch 10 shot grouping with the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol that was pretty well centered hitting the target just a tad low and to the left but pretty close to center target.
All in all the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol did a good job once I took the broken off threads out of the barrel. The trigger is really nice on it, maybe even a bit light but you will get use to it over time. The blowback is snappy and the gun holds well in the hand, a real pleasure to shoot! I did notice the slide spring feels a bit weak when you release it as it does not snap into place with a lot of authority, but this does not effect the blowback action at all and the gun shot without any problems or hiccups. If you are looking for a quality Glock styled Airsoft Pistol then the KJWorks KP-13 TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol would make a great option for sure.
In this Field Test Shooting Review, I test the Umarex Smith & Wesson 629 Competitor CO2 Airsoft Revolver in the Replica Airguns Indoor Sea Can Shooting Range to find out what the real world velocity is in fps. I also shoot some .20 gram and .40 gram Airsoft BB’s at a paper target setup 30 feet down range to see what kind of accuracy I can achieve with a 6 round grouping. If you are also interested in more information like specifications and details along with some more close up video of the Umarex Smith & Wesson 629 Competitor CO2 Airsoft Revolver, then make sure to watch my Table Top Video for this rather chunky Shell Loading Airsoft Revolver.
Starting with my Chronograph Velocity Test, I loaded up a brand new 12 gram CO2 Cartridge and loaded 6 .20 gram Airsoft BB’s into the cylinder. My average 6 shot velocity of 514 fps was even a bit higher than what Umarex claims which is 500 fps. The fastest Airsoft BB was clocked at 531 fps with the slowest BB hitting a respectable 490 fps. That’s moving pretty fast for sure, probably a bit quick for close quarters indoor Airsoft games? Temperature was right around room temperature.
I was going to only test out the .20 gram Airsoft BB’s for my accuracy part of the Field Test, but the high velocity was not working all that well with the lighter .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. I only got around an 8 inch grouping as the lighter .20 gram Airsoft BB’s really wanted to curl though the air. I felt the Umarex Smith & Wesson 629 Competitor CO2 Airsoft Revolver could do a lot better using a heaver Airsoft BB’s so I redid my Accuracy Test, but this time using .40 gram Airsoft BB’s, and this for sure gave me much better results. 3 of the 6 Airsoft rounds made a single hole just above the bulls-eye fairly well centered with 2 shots increasing the grouping slightly to around 2 inches and 1 shot that came out a bit which I will classify as a flyer but if you include it, the grouping was more or less around 5 inches, still a lot better than the .20 gram Airsoft BB’s.
All in all the Umarex Smith & Wesson 629 Competitor CO2 Airsoft Revolver is one of the nicest shell loading Airsoft Revolvers I have reviewed, and I do hope that one day it is available in a Steel BB version. I do recommend for sure using heavier Airsoft BB for better accuracy, and again if you are a smaller person or young adult, this Revolver may be a bit chunky at around 3 pounds. The single action trigger is very usable for precise shot placement, but I would say it is not overly light. Of course you can shoot double action if you want to unload the 6 rounds quickly when action shooting. I do like that Umarex has gone with larger shells and a beefier cylinder which is a lot closer to what your would expect from a 44 magnum in terms of shell casing size. If you want the ultimate Shell Loading Airsoft Revolver than this one is for sure on the top of the list!
In this Field Test Shooting Video for the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle, I checkout the velocity and power here in the Replica Airguns Indoor Airgun Shooting Range, to find out if the real world velocity is in the ballpark of the claimed 450+ fps velocity by KJWorks. I also shoot 10 rounds into a paper target from a distance of 30 feet to see how accurate of a grouping I can get. If you are interested in details, specifications and more close up video along with the Pro’s and Con’s for the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle, then checkout my Table Top Video Review for it here.
Starting first with my velocity test, I loaded up the magazine with propane gas along with a full magazine of .20 gram Airsoft BB’s. The temperature was around 20 degrees Celsius or 68 degrees Fahrenheit, so not super warm or cold, in warmer conditions I would expect slightly higher fps from the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle. KJWorks claims 450+ fps and my testing came pretty close to this with my five Chronograph readings hitting: 468, 451, 435, 436, 426 fps. Averaging 443 fps.
Next I made sure I still had 10 Airsoft rounds in the magazine and placed a fresh paper target 30 feet down range and shot all 10 rounds into the target using a semi rested shooting position, with my hands on a sand bag up front and sitting on a stool in the back. This allows me fairly stable shooting with less human factor. I did have to aim a few inches low on the center of the target as the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle does shoot a bit high at 30 feet. 7 out of the 10 rounds hit all within about 2 inches of each other and then three rounds came out of the group increasing the 10 shot grouping from 2 inches to around 5 inches. I am wondering if perhaps I had some miss-formed Airsoft BB’s in the bunch as the shots that came out, really did come out a lot compared to the tighter 2 inch 7 shot main grouping.
Overall the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle performed well, the velocity was right on the mark and was fairly consistent dropping off a bit as the Rifle cooled down from the gas. Accuracy was very good side to side but up and down I did notice more variation. The trigger is a double action only trigger so it is a bit longer and heavier than a real steel Ruger MK1 that is known for its beautiful short and light Single Action Trigger. Still the KJWorks MK1 Carbine Green Gas Airsoft Rifle performed well and I think with some good quality Airsoft BB’s, perhaps even a bit heavier than I used in this test, one could improve the accuracy at range and really be able to use this for some longer range outdoor Airsoft games. As it is a fairly light and short Rifle it would make for a super easy to pack around sniper rifle option.
In this months Replica Airguns Mystery Unboxing Preview Video, I take a look at 4 new items that showed up at my door. Two Airsoft Rifles, one being AEG and the other one a GBB. I also received two accessories for the GEM Alias super tiny multi ammo CO2 Pistol, A .50 caliber Paintball Barrel for it and and a 12 gram CO2 Adapter.
Both Airsoft Rifles are new to me from a company called Novritsch which is a higher end brand so the pricing is not cheap for either Airsoft Rifle. It was nice to get an AEG and GBB to review, the Novritsch SSR77 AEG Airsoft Rifle is a Replica of the Steyr AUG while the Novritsch SSQ22 GBB Airsoft Rifle is essentially a custom modded Ruger 10/22 copy, at least from what I can tell, it is solid and really well built.
I have already made a Table Top Video for the GEM Alias CO2 Pistol but I have been waiting for the .50 Caliber Paintball Barrel to show up so I can test out all 4 barrel ammo options. I also really wanted the 12 gram CO2 Adapter so I don’t have to use the small 8 gram CO2’s which are harder to find and not as cost effective as the 12 gram CO2. So now I am totally ready to make the GEM Field Test Shooting Review.
It’s been a while since I made a Field Test Shooting Video, probably well before I went to SHOT Show. I have been working on my SHOT Show 2025 Videos but those Interview Videos are all done and now it’s time to get caught up on some Field Test Shooting Video I have been wanting to make. So today I was able to make my Field Test Review Video for the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol and for some this is a pretty entry level BB Pistol many might overlook but if you are simply looking for a 1911 based BB Pistol that is super inexpensive to buy, and cheap to shoot, and you don’t need quick semi auto shooting. Then the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol Field Test Review could be an option for you. Make sure to watch my Table Top Review Video for the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol for Details, Specifications, Pros and Cons and some nice close up video.
In this video I test out both the velocity and accuracy and I guess to some degree the usability so lets get started with the Velocity or fps portion of the testing. I loaded up the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol with a half full hopper of 4.5 mm Steel BB’s, so around 100 BB’s which is way more than I needed and I shot 5 rounds through my Chronograph hitting the following fps: 191, 193, 188, 195, 197 which averaged 193 fps. Umarex claims a velocity of up to 240 fps which I think is a bit high as temperature is not even a factor with a spring piston Airgun, so warmer conditions will not really make much of a difference here.
I then placed a brand new paper target on my backstop 30 feet down range and proceeded to shoot 10 rounds into it using a semi rested shooting position. Hands rested on a sand bag up front and sitting on a stool in the back. This generally gives me pretty good stability while performing these tests, but there is always some human factor to take into consideration. I was not all that impressed with the grouping I got, the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol likes to fling BB’s around a bit. You an see them curl so maybe some miscellaneous spin is being added in the barrel but it is not a consistent spin so the BB’s kind of spray all over the target that ended up giving me around a 8 inch grouping. Usually I can get around a 2 inch grouping with a BB Pistol that is generally what I would consider to be good accuracy.
I wish the Umarex DSX 45 Spring BB Pistol Field had hit closer to the 240 claimed fps and was also a bit more accurate as it would then be more usable at the 30 foot range I tested it at. I would suggest if you buy or own this BB Pistol, that you shoot it at targets closer in at 10-20 feet as the poor velocity and accuracy would be a lot less noticeable at these ranges and for that purpose it would be just fine. If you want a super low cost BB Pistol option that is also a decent looking 1911 Replica, and that you don’t need to go out and buy any CO2 to use it. Then take a look at one in our Replica Airguns Online Store. Heck, it’s only $19 US and $29 CAN right now!
I’m back from SHOT Show 2025 Las Vegas and finished transferring and uploading all the video from all the cameras we shot it all on. We had a great time, we met a lot of great folks at the booths and it’s now time to put it all together and make some videos for everyone so I can share the experience!
I always like to put out a “Teaser Video” with some quick clips of the entire experience including some of the travels, a bit of the resort we stayed at, shots of Vegas and of course lots of the SHOT Show 2025 experience along with the booths we visited. Enjoy this quick preview and stay posted for my upcoming Interview Videos shortly…
Type: Multi-Ammo Pistol. Distributer:Alies Airguns. Model:GEM. Materials: Mostly metal with some plastic build. Weight: Barrel dependent. Total Length: Barrel dependent 3.5 inches (89mm) with BB and Airsoft Barrels. Barrel: Barrel dependent 2 inches (51mm) with BB and Airsoft Barrels Propulsion: 8 or 12 gram CO2 (12 Gram CO2 required adaptor sold separately). Action: Break Barrel / Single shot. Ammunition Type: 4.5mm Steel BB's / 6mm Airsoft BB’s (Can also purchase .117 Pellet, .50 & .43 cal Paintball, 9mm Arrow Barrels) Ammunition Capacity: 1 round. FPS: up to 400 using 4.5mm Steel BB’s.
Trigger Pull: The Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is a true single action only pistol that requires the pulling back of the hammer for each shot. This does give it a very nice trigger action that is short to medium in length with an easy release. The makeup is about medium for a single action trigger with a bit of an unpredictable release as there is no point in time that you feel it breaking on you. This can be good or bad depending on how you like your triggers as it is hard to tel when ti will actually release but the smoothness makes it a good trigger overall in my opinion
Accuracy: I have not shot the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun at all so far as it requires 8 gram CO2 and so I am waiting on the 12 gram adaptor for it before I can even give it a quick try. I will be making a full Field test Review for it swapping between a bunch of barrel options to see how each barrel adn ammo type performs in terms of power adn accuracy so stay posted for that video down the road a bit.
Build Quality: Build quality for the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is very good with an almost all metal build other than the front and back sights, the trigger, the safety adn the barrel release. I kind of wish these parts were also metal as the rest of the Airgun is so pristine! The weight of this pistol feels very dense as it is so small yet has a good weight. The fir and finishes is all very good with the chrome finish on most parts and even the inclusion of what I believe are real gem stones on each side of the grips. The mechanical parts are also smooth and precise.
Realism: As far as I know the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is not a replica of any production real steel gun that I am aware of. It looks to me like some sort of futuristic compact laser pistol? In terms of gun shape and what we are use to in terms of what a gun is it checks most of the boxes but it is it’s own design for sure.
Pros:
Super compact design, probably the smallest Airgun available.
Multiple quick change barrel and ammo options.
Mostly all metal build, very high quality materials.
Nice smooth and light SAO trigger.
Able to also use 12 gram CO2 with optional adapter.
Comes in different colors (red or black).
Decent velocity up to 400 fps depending on ammo type.
Eye-catching chrome and gemstone detailing make it a collector's piece.
Cons:
Uses 8 grams CO2 standard, harder to get and more expensive.
Only a single shot, not an action shooter.
On the pricy side at over $300 Canadian.
Comments:
I have to say that the Alias GEM Multi Ammo Mini CO2 Airgun is not going to be for everyone as the price point is up there a bit for such a simple single action gun. That said it is super unique and the quality adn design is top notch. It may in fact be the smallest CO2 Airgun on the market adn you can literally put it in your front pocket easily. That combined with all the barrel and ammo options makes it super flexible if you plan on shooting a variety of different ammo types. Like I said in the video you may even be able to get away with buying it as a gift for your wife or girlfriend since it technically can be defined as being jewelry with the imbedded Gem stones in the grips. That may be a bit of a stretch unless she is also an Airgun fan.
Type: Less Lethal Pistol. Manufacturer:Umarex - T4E. Model:P2P HDP 50 Compact. Materials: Metal & Polymer. Weight: 1.3 pounds (585 grams). Barrel: 4 inches (108mm) Smooth bore. Total Length: 7.2 inches (183mm). Power Source: 1x8 gram CO2. Action: Semi auto - Double action only trigger. Ammo Type: .50 Caliber Rubber Ball, Pepper Ball, Powder Ball. Ammo Capacity: 4 Round spring fed internal magazine. FPS: 365 (11 Joules).
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol is double action only but not overly long or heavy. There does not seem to be any ammo friction which is nice, so each round feels about the same with spring tension not playing much of a factor. In order to use the trigger, the Pistol will need to be fully charged by loading an 8 gram CO2 and giving it a smack on the bottom of the pistol grip of the CO2 screw. This will pierce the 8 gram CO2, charging the gun with pressure and activation the trigger mechanism. When the CO2 pressure becomes too low, the pressure indicator will retract and the trigger will not function and a new CO2 will be required for more shooting.
Accuracy: So far I have not tried out the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol in the Replica Airguns Indoor Airgun Shooting Range, I have shot its big brother the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Gen 2 and it did shoot around a 6 inch 6 shot grouping for me with a velocity of around 450 fps that worked out to around a 15 joule energy rating. I do not expect the same from the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol as it is claimed with a lower velocity of 365 and an energy rating of 11 joules. It should get pretty close to this based on it’s bigger brother’s performance.
Build Quality: The build quality of the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol is very good overall. It is mostly made out of plastic which is fine, since it is designed to be a compact and portable pistol which should be on the lighter side. There is metal where it needs to be in most of the mechanical areas including the barrel, trigger, charging system and I am sure other internal parts. The plastic parts feel well made and fit and finish is very good. I wish the trigger guard that swings down to load the ammo clicked back into place better as it seems easy for it to open up and potentially get caught on clothing or objects while using it.
Realism: This version of the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol comes with the orange slide area to show that it is not a lethal firearm. It may also come in an all black version but at this time we only sell the colored slide version. This does make it obvious that the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol is not a “Real Firearm” designed for lethal encounters, which in Canada is a good thing since our self protection laws seem to favor the criminal more than the victim. Making sure you are using a tool designed to deter a criminal rather than harm or kill them, is hopefully going to keep you out of trouble with the legal system. That said the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol does look kinda like a modern or futuristic semi auto pistol and functions much the same but with a lot less force.
Pros:
Not many options for a true less-lethal option here in Canada. This Airgun is purpose built for less lethal use so it has what I believe a decent amount power to hopefully deter an intruder.
It is clearly marked in orange to indicate it is not an actual lethal firearm. When protecting yourself in Canada you have to be cautious with your intentions, and having clear orange markings will help in your case to show that you where not trying to give the impression of using a real firearm.
Decent power of claimed 365 fps with a 11 Joules energy rating.
Can store the 8 gram CO2 in it and activate with a quick hit to the bottom of the CO2 screw.
Holds 4 rounds in the internal magazine which hopefully gets the job done. Should be able to reload at least one more time for a total of 8 shots per 8 gram CO2.
Black post front and orange notch rear sights have enough contrast to make sighting on most targets stand out.
Double action trigger feels smooth and not too heavy, also has a trigger safety on it.
Comes with 10 rubber and 10 powder balls along with three 8 gram CO2 to get you started.
Compact size is nice if you want to cary it with you, (law permitting).
Cons:
Uses 8 gram CO2 which are harder to get and more expensive than 12 gram CO2, will also get less shots per CO2 and quicker cool down.
No Picatinny rail or adjustable sights.
Only holds 4 rounds.
In Canada it does not seem you can get pepper balls easily most likely due to import regulations.
Comments:
I really liked the big full size brother of the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol and it did turn out to not only be fairly accurate but also performed well in the power category, coming in even a bit higher than the claimed 13 joules of energy with a real world rating for me of 15 joules using standard .50 caliber rubber balls. So I am hoping the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol with its 365 fps rating and 11 claimed joules will at least hit the mark. Yes it is a bit less powerful but it is also a lot smaller and more compact if you where interest in conceal caring it. Again law permitting in your area! Stay posted for my Field Test Shooting Video where I will find out if the Umarex P2P HDP 50 Compact CO2 Less Lethal Pistol performs as expected.
