Cybergun Mini UZI CO2 BB Gun Chronograph and Full Auto Shooting Test

14 Comments

Related Posts:

Today I got my Cybergun Full Auto CO2 powered BB shooting Mini UZI out for a Chrony Chronograph test. As stated by the factory, this BB shooting Mini UZU is supposed to shoot right around 344 fps which is not bad for a true blowback airgun. And what I mean by true blowback - it's when an airgun uses some of the CO2 power to cycle the action of the gun, which cocks the firing mechanism and loads a BB all in the blink of an eye - just like a real semi auto shooter.

The Cybergun Mini UZI shot nicely between 350 and 360 fps - again, another impressive result even on a not too warm day! (10 degrees Celsius - 50 degrees fahrenheit)

I also took the opportunity to film the Cybergun Mini UZI shooting in full auto, at target while I used my high speed Casio camera to slow down what was actually happening. The result is you can really see all that's going on while you fire this dynamic air gun.

Keep in mind that the Cybergun Mini UZI does not come from the factory with the full auto feature. It is an easy mod however, and I have a video here on how to do it.

Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle Blowback CO2 Pellet Pistol Chronograph FPS Test

Yet another Chronograph video! I'm working my way through my air guns and starting with the ones that I have been asked about the most, and that I'm also the most interested in finding out what the true "real word" feet per second ratings are.

<!-- google_ad_client = "ca-pub-9036472715040282"; /* Replica Airguns Content */ google_ad_slot = "1487049688"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; //-->

Todays Chrony Chronograph test was done on my Umarex Magnum Research Desert Eagle Blowback CO2 .177 caliber pellet pistol. The factory rating was stated as being a respectable 425 fps which is pretty good for a blowback pellet shooter. The Umarex Desert Eagle is a crisp and accurate shooter that likes to eat up CO2 cartridges, so the factory claims are believable!

I am happy to say that on a fresh CO2 cartridge, in not too warm spring Vancouver weather, I not only hit the 425 claimed fps, but exceeded it with a few shots.

Added the Webley Alecto Left Handed Grips to the Store

No Comments

This may not be a big deal to most of you but if you happen to own or are thinking about getting a Webley Alecto in either a .177 caliber or .22 caliber pellet version, and you are a left handed shooter... then having the appropriate grips is going to make life just a little easier for you!

If you haven't taken a look at the Webley Alecto, maybe you should because it is a pretty amazing Pellet Pistol for target or pest control.

Marlin Cowboy Lever Action BB Rifle Chronograph Test

I don't know if a lot of people out there are going to be interested in the feet per second performance of what some might call a kids BB gun, but I know I was. And since I already had my Chrony chronograph setup I thought it would be just as easy to put my Crosman Marlin Cowboy Lever Action BB shooter through the paces.

<!-- google_ad_client = "ca-pub-9036472715040282"; /* Replica Airguns Content */ google_ad_slot = "1487049688"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; //-->

The Cowboy has a claimed feet per second rating of  "up to" 350 fps so I wasn't expecting too much. Right off the bat it hit around 300 fps and kept climbing till it hit just under 320 feet per second. I even went back later after shooting it for a bit and hit got to the mid 320's! I think it just needed a bit of breaking in to hit it's full potential.

Anyway, The Crosman Marline Cowboy Lever action rifle is a really fun BB gun to shoot and my son is going to love it when he gets it for his birthday one of these years, when he's ready...

UMAREX S&W M&P 45 SPECIFICATIONS AND PHOTOS

No Comments

Sorry, I only have the one photo I could find of the Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45. This CO2 pistol shoots both BB's and Pellets and looks like it uses some of the design elements from other rotary magazine Umarex guns like the CPSport and CP88. Again I am not sure if the slide is metal or plastic because of the lower weight factor?

Specifications:

  • Uses 12 gram CO2
  • 4.5mm steel BB's and .177 caliber pellets
  • 380 fps
  • Double action
  • 8 rounds
  • 1.37 Pounds
  • Picatinny Rail

The Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P R8 is coming to North America, I know that for sure! From what I can tell by looking at the photos and the weight of the gun, it looks like it's got a lot of plastic components? it does have pretty good fps but states double action and not single action? Guess we'll have to see when it gets here?

Specifications:

  • Uses 12 gram CO2
  • 4.5mm steel BB's
  • 427 fps
  • Double action
  • 8 rounds
  • 1.1 Pounds

Umarex S&W 327 TRR8 SPECIFICATIONS AND PHOTOS

1 Comment

I don't have too much in the way of specification for the Umarex S&W 327 TRR8 but I can say it pretty much looks like an ASG Dan Wesson that has been re-skinned! Something I found a bit funny with this gun si that it is supposed to be a TRR8 replica, and the real S&W 327 TRR8 is an 8 shooter and the Umarex copy is a 6 shooter! Maybe they though nobody would notice?

Specifications based on Photos and similar Dan Wesson:

  • Uses 12 gram CO2
  • 4.5mm steel BB's
  • 400-450 fps
  • Single & double action
  • 6 rounds
  • 2.25 - 2.5 Pounds
  • All metal
  • Picatinny Rail top and bottom
  • Red Dot Scope accessory
  • Fore grip accessory

Here is the last one for the day, I added the Umarex Walther CP88 Pellet Pistol to the Replica Airguns Store.

The Walther CP88 CO2 Air Pistol replica is ideally suited for “Action Shooting Target Games”. The outstanding workmanship and the simplified modular system help make this an outstanding choice for both experienced and novice shooters. A replica in looks and weight, the CP88 is an economical choice for owners of similar firearms. An air pistol with quality craftsmanship like this Walther is perfect for muscle retention and sharp shooting.

Comes in a foam-lined plastic gun case and includes two 8-shot rotary magazines.

Added the Umarex Beretta PX4 Storm to the Store

3 Comments

A few more Store product updates... I just added the Umarex Beretta PX4 Storm to go along with the PX4 Storm Recon we have in our Replica Airguns Store.

The Beretta Px4 Storm Recon air pistol is not only a BB gun, but a pellet gun as well. It will shoot either projectile from its revolutionary dual-ended magazine. This 16-shot repeater will have you shooting as fast as you can pull the trigger. There's an 8-shot rotary clip on one end of the stick mag, and another one at the other end. Since it shoots BBs or pellets, you'll have more flexibility with ammo choice.

A 12-gram CO2 is easily loaded into the grip and gives you plenty of shots before you need a refill. There's even an accessory rail under the barrel. Like the handgun, it has real blowback action, it really kicks, giving you a feeling of power that most airguns only hope to achieve! Once you start shooting, you won't want to stop, so get lots of RWS pellets, BBs and Walther CO2.

  • .177 Pellet & 4.5mm BB
  • CO2 Powered
  • 16 round magazine (8 on each end)
  • 380 fps
  • 1.6 pounds
  • 4.5 inch steel rifled barrel
  • Single and double action
  • Blowback
  • Metal slide - polymer frame
  • Tactical Rail Mount

No Comments

More great product for you, I just add the Walther CPSport Pellet Pistol to the Replica Airguns Store.

LOOK FOR the Unique Lines and Distinctive Shape of the P99 replica as a TRADEMARK of Walther.

With Walther’s Fast-Action CO2 System, the CPSport is quickly ready to fire. The CO2 capsule is housed in a magazine that drops out of the grip with a realistic push of the magazine release lever that's located in the same place as it is on the Walther P99. Load its included rotary magazine with eight .177 caliber RWS lead pellets and enjoy shot after accurate shot. Modeled after Walther's P99 sidearm, the CPSport Air Pistol is an affordable pellet gun that will give you years of shooting enjoyment. Increase the fun with the CPSport by adding these optional accessories: Laser Sight, additional rotary magazines, additional Drop Out CO2 magazines.

  • .177 Pellets
  • CO2 Powered
  • 8 round rotary magazine
  • Up to 400 fps
  • 1.3 pounds
  • 3.3 inch steel rifled barrel
  • Double action only

Added the Umarex HPP Blowback BB gun to the Store

1 Comment

I just added the excellently priced and well made Umarex HPP Blowback BB Pistol to the Replica Airguns Store.

The Umarex High Power Pistol (HPP) BB Repeater pistol has a 15-shot drop-out magazine for quick reloading. The 410 fps velocity is quite high for the class of pistol. The crisp blowback action simulates a real firearm. The heavyweight construction of the pistol and integrated accessory rail give it the look and feel of realism. A housed CO2 cartridge in the pistol grip provides the power for the this Sig Sauer looking heavy duty gun.

  • 4.5mm BB
  • CO2 Powered
  • 15 round magazine
  • 410 fps
  • 1.8 pounds
  • 3.6 inch steel non-rifled barrel
  • Double action

EKOL ES 55 CO2 BB Pistol Chrony Chronograph Test

2 Comments

Another airgun I have been really curious about the actual fps, is the EKOL ES 55. It's one of my only BB pistols that can shoot clean though a soup can. Some of the other BB shooter almost make it but just not quite, even with ratings as high as 480 fps!

The EKOL ES 55 is an overall really nice BB gun with a heavy duty all metal build and it even sports a rifled barrel, another feature not often found in BB shooters.

<!-- google_ad_client = "ca-pub-9036472715040282"; /* Replica Airguns Content */ google_ad_slot = "1487049688"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; //-->

Now that I have my Chrony chronograph, I am able to actually test these guns and find out their true feet per second ratings and from what I'm seeing, most of the guns come in under their rated fps. My EKOL ES 55 actually did pretty well, the manual claims 120 M/S which translates to 396 fps but interestingly, they actually claimed 360 fps?

So I really needed to get to the bottom of it! I took 15 shots (a full magazine) with the EKOL ES 55 with a few seconds gap between each shot and the gun stayed pretty consistently right around the 420 fps mark. Not bad at all and actually above the claimed feet per second rating!

So if your looking for a good quality BB pistol with 400+ fps, look no further then the EKOL ES 55!
