Propulsion: Gun powder.
Action: Semi/Full auto single action.
Ammunition Type: 9mm P.A.K. blanks.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull of the Jackal Dual is typical of a single action semi auto gun, no hammer pull is required so it has a light to medium pull.
Accuracy: N/A.
Build Quality: The build quality is similar to that of my Zoraki blank guns. The EKOL Jackal Dual is well built and uses good quality materials, this gun is almost all metal and very heavy with thick materials. The finish quality is typical of other Turkish guns - good but not perfect. Out of all the EKOL finishes, the black (which is more of glossy back) is probably the nicest.
Realism: The Jackal Dual is an almost exact copy of the Beretta 92FS, it would be hard to tell them apart from any distance.
Purchase From: The Replica Airguns Store.
Pros:
Semi and Full auto makes this gun a lot of fun to shoot.
Very good construction, lots of metal parts and good solid weight to the Jackal.
The black gloss finish is one of the nicer EKOL finishes.
If you own a Beretta 92FS or plan to get one, the Jackal would make a great trainer to accompany your real one.

Cons:
9mm P.A.K. Blank ammo is expensive and this gun can go through it fast!
The rear safety is non-functional and a bit confusing.
The plastic but piece at the bottom of the magazine seems a bit cheap and out of place with the rest of this well made gun.
The Jackal is a bit on the high price side compared to the other EKOL blank guns. (You may want to look at the EKOL Firat blank guns as they are the same gun without the full auto feature for about $60 less.)
Comments:
The EKOL Jackal Dual blank gun is a nice addition to our growing number of legal blank guns in Canada. EKOL offers a nice variety of models to choose from with an assortment of finishes. Out of all the EKOL guns, I would consider the Jackal Dual as being the most realistic as it is really a copy of the Beretta 92FS. The quality and finish is pretty good overall with the usual few minimal imperfection found on many Turkish blank guns. This gun test fired without incident. I shoot 10 rounds through it and had no miss fires, failures to load or eject. The full auto feature of this gun makes it very thrilling to shoot, just make sure you have lots of ammo with you and an out of the way place to shoot.
