WE G39C GBB Airsoft Assault Rifle Full Review

7 Comments

Type: Airsoft Assault Rifle.

Manufacturer:WE.

Model: G39C.

Materials: Metal & plastic.

Weight: 6.1 pounds.

Barrel: 9.5 inches, smooth bore.

Propulsion: (GBB) Gas Blowback.

Action: Semi & full auto.

Ammunition Type: Airsoft 6mm Plastic BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 32 rounds.

FPS: Up-to 420.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the WE G39C is about what you would expect from a Single action only Semi Auto rifle, it has a very slight take up and then about a 4 pound trigger pull that is crisp and smooth.

Accuracy: Out of the Box the WE G39C shot great up close and farther out, the hop-up seemed to be already dialed in, and even though I was using only .20 gram BB's which is a bit light for this gun, I still found they tracked well and stayed on target both near and far. My 30 foot semi rested testing produced a nice 2 inch grouping. Shooting the barrel out on the tactical range I did have to aim just a bit higher when back out at 60 or more feet away. Maybe a slight bit more hop-up would do the trick.

Build Quality: The WE G39C is very well made, yes it has lots of polymer but so does the real version and the plastic seems very durable, The fit and finish looked great and there is a lot of metal in and around the G39C where it would be on the real steel gun and where it is really required to be. Like the trigger, flash hider, rails, pins, switches, rear sight, magazine and most internal parts also.

Realism: I bet if you had the real G36C sitting beside the WE G39C you would be hard pressed to tell them apart? WE did a great job making this Airsoft version very believable not just in appearance but also when field stripping it and shooting it with it's heavy bolt and felt blowback recoil.

Available at the:Canada Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Amazing attention to detail, just like the real H&K G36C.

  • All metal internals and metal external mechanical parts.

  • Semi auto & full auto selectable.

  • Awesome blowback kick really hits you in the shoulder.

  • Field strips just like the real steal version.

  • Nice high 400 FPS and good accuracy near and far.

  • Full ambidextrous, even the charging handle can be switched side to side.

  • Can get up to three magazines per propane fill up.

  • Very well priced for how awesome it really is.

Cons:

  • Some people may not like that it is a polymer built gun externally but it is what it is!

  • And that's it!

Comments:

So far I have been impressed with We an Airsoft company, they really know how to make very realistic and high quality products. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the mostly polymer external build on this gun but the sheer quality and solid build took away any ideas that tis Airsoft gun would be anything like a toy. The WE G39C is one of the best performing GBB Airsoft guns I have tried out getting up to 90 shots per gas fill on a magazine which is very impressive. We was also able to keep the price down which means more people can get into one of the G39C's. If you've been thinking about adding one of these to your arsenal I don't see any reason why not to!

RAP4 RAM Walther P99 .43 Caliber Blowback Paintball Pistol Review

18 Comments

Type: Paintball Pistol.

Manufacturer:RAP4.

Model:RAP4 RAM P99

Materials: Metal & Polymer.

Weight: 2 pounds.

Barrel: 4 inches, metal non-rifled.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Semi auto, single & double action with blowback.

Ammunition Type: .43 caliber paintball or rubber bullet.

Ammunition Capacity: 9 round magazine.

FPS: 250-300fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Real Action Paintball RAP4 X50 is rather nice in single action, being a true blowback gun, the cycling of the slide not only chambers a round but also pre-cocks the hammer allowing for a very smooth and light single action trigger pull. There is also a working de-cocker that allows you to release the internal hammer. Double action is noticeably heavier but would only really be used on the first shot if you had already used the de-cocker.

Accuracy: After my previous review of the RAM X50 I was expecting this gun to perform pretty much the same. I did find it to be a bit more accurate within the 20-25 foot range using the rubber balls but when I got out into the field and switched over to the Paintballs I found that they where really hooking and darting all over the place? Mind you, this gun was right out of the box and not broken in yet. I also got a bit lower fps (right around 250) out of the RAP4 RAM Walther P99 compared to my RAM X50 but again my review unit had not been adjusted in any way and I imagine I could turn it up a bit to get more fps out of it if I wante to. The plus side is I was able to get an astounding 8 magazines worth of shots out of one CO2.

Build Quality: The RAP4 RAM Walther P99 styled Paintball Pistol is built very well, it does have a polymer frame but the gun overall has lots of metal parts and a very good overall 2 pounds weight to it dry. The blowback action is very snappy and all the mechanics and fit and finish all look and function very nicely. The slide spring is nice and firm giving this paintball gun a snappy recoil and the feel closer to a real gun than that of an airgun.

Realism: The RAP4 RAM Walther P99 was primarily made to simulate real word shooting environments for Police and Military users and even includes Walther branding and licensing, it is a very believable looking and functioning copy of the real steel semi auto pistol it replicates. Other than the exception of the CO2 Cylinder hanging a bit far out of the bottom of the handle. The RAM P99 would be hard to tell from the actual Walther P99, especially when looking down the large .43 caliber barrel. The Blowback action and firm recoil help pull off the believability when shooting this ralistic Paintball Pistol.

Purchase it from:The Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • Good weight and solid feeling gun.

  • Full metal slide with nice heavy blowback recoil.

  • All metal heavy 9 round magazines.

  • Very Accurate Walther P99 replica including licensing and trademarks.

  • Everything works pretty much like the real gun so a great training tool.

  • Good accuracy up close and lots of shots per CO2 for such a large round.

  • Nice light single action trigger and working de-cocker.

  • Fairly affordable.

Cons:

  • CO2 cylinder sticks out from the handle and looks a bit odd.

  • Paintball accuracy out at range was unpredictable.

  • Does not field Strip conventionally.

Comments:

This was my second time testing a RAP4 RAM product and again I took the chance to use it as it was intended to be used - in the field going through simulated tactical situations. My targets where barrels this time but they could have been other people with similar paintball guns shooting back at me which would have put even more pressure on me and forced me to really see where my mistakes are being made. That's the whole point of this type of training airgun, make it as real as it can be without your actual life being in danger so that when you are in danger you will not have to think about what you are doing but simply react based on your previous training. I think anyone who is a gun owner wanting to improve their reactive shooting skills should invest in one of these Paintball guns. One day you may thank yourself but let's hope it does not come to that!

Mystery (KSC?) 17 GBB Airsoft Pistol Review

12 Comments

 

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm"

All references, photos and video claiming that any item in this Review/Video looks like a Glock or is a Replica of a Glock in any way shape or form have been removed from this post as requested by Glock"Renzulli Law Firm"

Type: Airsoft GBB pistol.
Manufacturer: KSC?
Model: NAME REMOVED 17.
Materials: Plastic & metal.
Weight: 1.6 pounds.
Barrel: 4 inch, non-rifled.
Propulsion: GBB - Propane.
Action: Semi auto - single action only.
Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 23 round drop out all metal magazine.
FPS: Up to 330.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on this Mystery NAME REMOVED 17 GBB Airsoft pistol is very nice with some take-up at the beginning but once you hit the resistance part it is smooth and the release is very light. The NAME REMOVED trigger safety actually works on this model which is a nice touch!

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm" 

Accuracy: I found the (KSC) NAME REMOVED 17 to have very good accuracy, getting about a 2 inch 8 shot grouping from 20 feet out in a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back). I also put 5 rounds through my Chrony Chronograph and this Airsoft Gas Blowback pistol averaged right around 326 fps using .20 gram 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm" 

Build Quality: The (KSC) NAME REMOVED 17 Airsoft pistol uses a combination of plastic and metal and has a decent overall weight and feel to it thanks to the full size drop out metal magazine. The frame like a real NAME REMOVED is plastic but the slide and outer barrel are also plastic which on real steel NAME REMOVED would not be the case. Even so the overall weight is good and the fit and finish is very good. Even though this is a pre-owned Airsoft gun it is in as-new condition and seems to be holding up very well.

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm" 

Realism: The (KSC) Airsoft NAME REMOVED 17 is very realistic in appearance and operation with all parts working exactly as they would on a real NAME REMOVED 17. Even the trigger safety works and field stripping this Airsoft gun is the same as a real NAME REMOVED. NAME REMOVED trademarks are present throughout, the only real giveaway is the plastic slide and outer barrel but you would need to examine this gun close up to see this for yourself.
Purchased privately, check out some other Airsoft guns in the Replica Airguns Store.

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm"

Pros:

  • Very realistic and accurate licensing.
  • Got a tight two inch group but was a bit low, hop up should get it back up.
  • Decent FPS for a short barreled GBB Airsoft gun.
  • Even thought the frame and slide are polymer, it has good weight to it.
  • Everything works like the original, field strips and most mechanical parts are metal.
  • High capacity 23 round full size drop out metal magazine.
  • Adjustable rear sight for windage but is a bit lose on mine.
  • Good usage of the gas - two full magazines.

Photo of Mystery KSC Removed by Request from Glock "Renzulli Law Firm"

Cons:

  • Hard to get here in Canada.
  • Mostly plastic main build - slide and outer barrel are plastic.
  • Rear sight was a bit lose.

Comments:
I am hoping that someone will know for sure who make this Airsoft NAME REMOVED 17 but either way it has been great playing around with it and doing my research to see if I could find out on my own. It's hard to tell you to go out and get one because I'm not sure what to go out and get at this point or even if this version can still be purchased and if so where from? All these questions... I can tell you that it's great to finally have an actual NAME REMOVED replica in my collection, I have a few NAME REMOVED-like guns but until I got my hand on this Mystery NAME REMOVED 17 GBB Airsoft pistol I really only had close proximities. So if you have the opportunity to snatch up something like this I say go for it!

Crosman 357 .177 Caliber CO2 Pellet Revolver Full Review

9 Comments

Type: Pellet Revolver.

Manufacturer:Crosman.

Model:357.

Materials: Metal and plastic.

Weight: 1.75 pounds.

Barrel: 6 inch, rifled.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Revolver - single and double action.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber pellets.

Ammunition Capacity: 10 shot rotary magazine.

FPS: Up to 435.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman 357 is decent in both single and double action. Single action is much shorter and lighter but not overly light with just a very short break to it. In double action it does get heavier and much longer as is expected. People with small hands may have to adjust their grip so they will have enough extension for the entire trigger pull, this is partially because of the larger grips that sit far back on the revolver frame.

Accuracy: I found the Crosman 357 pellet revolver to have excellent accuracy, getting about a 1 inch grouping from 30 feet out in a semi rested position (sand bag up front, standing in the back). I also put 6 rounds through my Chrony Chronograph and the Crosman 357 averaged 402 fps using RWS 6.9 grain lead pellets.

Build Quality: The Crosman 357 CO2 Pellet Revolver uses a combination of metal and plastic and has a good overall weight and feel to it. There could be more metal (like in the outer barrel) but Crosman used metal parts where they really needed to be like in the main frame, trigger, hammer, CO2 area and inner barrel. This air pistol has been around for a long time and so you can count on all the bugs being worked out. You will not find a great amount of detail in the Crosman 357 and some of the joints seem a bit unrefined but overall it is a nice looking airgun and feels well made.

Realism: The Crosman 357 is a replica of the Colt Python 357 Magnum and overall looks similar in shape. I would have liked to have seen a full swing our cylinder but this would have meant a complete redesign and the Crosman 357 main design goes back to the early 80's. Yes there are some newer revolver styled airguns like the Dan Wesson that have full swing out cylinders (BB only) but I still would have liked to have seen this, maybe on a future updated revision?

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Inexpensive Pellet revolver, not really any other pellet revolvers out there to compare to.

  • Good usage of metal parts. (Metal  trigger, hammer, frame, barrel, CO2 tab screw).

  • Single and double action trigger.

  • Excellent accuracy and good power with a reasonable amount of shots per CO2.

  • Can mount optics on the dove tail railed barrel.

  • High capacity 10 round removable magazine.

  • Fully adjustable rear sight.

Cons:

  • Outer barrel is plastic.

  • Grips and trigger pull length may be a bit long for smaller handed people when shooting in double action.

  • Some of the finish detail could be better (seems).

  • A slight recess on the inner barrel would have added to the realism.

Comments:

Reviewing this fun Crosman Pellet revolver was a bit of a walk in the past for me. back when I was in my early teens I had one and it went with me on just about all of my back woods adventures. I'd have to say I learned how to shoot with this pistol and it felt right at home back in my hands after all these years... Back in the day I didn't do any scientific testing with my Crosman revolver but I can tell you it shot hard and true then, just like it does now! I'm not sure why I held out so long getting another one, the price is right and if you are looking for a nice multi-shot pellet pistol with excellent accuracy and good power for well under $100, the Crosman 357 might just be for you.

Webley Tempest Pellet Pistol Table Top & Shooting Review

8 Comments

Type: Apring piston air pistol.

Manufacturer: Webley.

Model: Tempest.

Materials: Mostly metal with minimal plastic parts.

Weight: 2.1 pounds.

Barrel: 6.9 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: Spring-piston-operated.

Action: Single shot.

Ammunition Type: .177 & .22 caliber pellets.

Ammunition Capacity: 1 pellet.

FPS: 400-499.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Webley Tempest is very good, being that it is single action, there is next to no take-up and the pull itself is very light, yet not so light that you would accidentally shoot the gun. This helps a lot with accuracy. And to top it off, you can even adjust the trigger pull weight to your liking from 3-5 pounds!

Accuracy: Being that the Webley Tempest is a spring piston design, there is a noticeable amount of felt recoil when the spring snaps backwards, and I say backwards because it compress towards the front of the gun. With many spring piston rifles the spring snaps forwards almost giving a reverse recoil effect. The Webley Tempest recoil hits you in a familiar direction which made the airgun feel a bit more natural and I believe helped me to get a nice 1.5 inch 5 shot grouping from 30 feet out in a semi rested position. I also got a 400 fps average rating form my .22 caliber 11.9 grain RWS pellets which took me right up to the Canadian limit of 5.7 Joules to stay just within the limits of the uncontrolled firearm status for an airgun. FEW!

Build Quality: Build quality is very good, most of the gun is all metal with a few plastic parts, basically the nose cap and hand grips, everything else is metal on the Tempest. The Webley Tempest has a nice compact size for a spring piston design and has a nice weight to it making it feel very solid but not overly heavy. I do have to say the cocking effort is very heavy and you will have to try a few different techniques until you find a way that works for you.

Realism: This is not a replica airgun so to speak of but the basic pistol grips and trigger are designed to replicate a revolver more than anything. The Tempest is very unique and its basic design roots go back to the 1920's.

Purchased From: the Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Very accurate for a spring piston air pistol.

  • One crank - one shot.

  • Mostly metal and very solid!

  • Fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

  • Small and compact yet very effective power.

  • Trigger pull adjustable from 3-5 pounds.

Cons:

  • If you're left handed the grips will not be as comfortable for you.

  • Sight adjustment will take some time to get right.

  • Spring recoil takes some getting used to so practice - practice - practice.

  • Cocking effort especially on the .22 caliber model is very heavy.

Comments:

Some people may qualify the fact that this "new version" is now made in Turkey but with that said I have been selling the Turkish made Webley Alecto for some time now and it has been one of my most trouble free airguns in the web-store. The Tempest looks to me to be just as well made and a nice perk with the Turkish made Tempest is its jump in velocity with the .22 actually hitting 400 fps and the .177 getting right around 500 fps, not bad at all for a fairly short barreled pistol. I also really like the small size this airgun has, it's no larger or heavier than say a Beretta 92 yet somehow it has to cram all the mechanics for the spring piston design into it and still get good performance. The only real reason I would not recommend this gun to some people is if you are of slight build or perhaps have some hand or wrist problems because it does take some effort to cock this gun, if this is a factor for you, you may want to go with the .177 caliber version as it does have a lighter cocking effort.

KJWorks KP-02 - KP-07 - Elite 1A Blowback Airsoft Pistol Review

2 Comments

Type: 6mm Plastic BB Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:KJWorks.

Model:KP-02, KP-07, Elite A1

Materials: Metal slides & frames.

Weight: 2/2.1/2 pounds.

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Blowback, Single action only on KP-07 - Single/Double action on KP-02 & Elite 1A

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 20/22/20 rounds.

FPS: 366+ fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on all of these KJWorks Airsoft guns is very nice in both single and double action, The KP-07's true single action only 1911 trigger is a beauty, with no take up at all and a very light and smooth release. The Beretta Elite 1A is the next best with a surprisingly light weight double action trigger. All of these guns will be shooting primarily in single action as the blowback precooks the hammer with each shot.

Accuracy: I shot all of these fine KJWorks Airsoft guns from 20 feet out in semi rested position and got very similar results. I was able to place 10 rounds in a 2 to 2.5 inch grouping for all guns, with the KP-07 1911 shooting the most well centered. The Beretta Elite 1A shot well centered also but just a hair under center mass while the KP-02 seemed to shoot low but could be adjusted to shoot higher by increasing the hopup. All three KJWorks Airsoft pistols got right around the 330-350 fps mark (5 shot average chrony testing) with the KP-7 1911 and Elite 1A Beretta hitting the higher end and the KP-02 Sig P229 getting right around 330fps. All three KJWorks Blowback Airsoft guns should be able to hit 366+fps in the right shooting conditions.

Build Quality: I was extremely impressed with the build quality of these KJWorks Airsoft guns, the fit and finish is the best I have seen on any of my guns including Airguns also. Even after shooting several magazines worth of BB's, the painted metal friction areas did not seem to show nearly as much wear as some of my other blowback guns. The tolerances between the moving parts like the slide and frame are very tight showing excellent workmanship and machining with these KJWorks Airsoft guns.

Realism: All of these KJWorks 6mm Airsoft pistols are based on real steal versions of the same guns (KP-02 is a Sig Sauer P229 copy, the KP-07 is a Colt 1911 copy and the Elite 1A is a Beretta Copy). They are very good replicas even though the KP-02 and KP-07 do not have any specific licensing on them. The Elite 1A does have licensing which is a plus. The only negative thing I can think of is the fact that the KP-02 has the rather unusual CO2 magazine that sticks out of the bottom of the handle that is not at all like a real P229 magazine. I do believe you can find a GBB magazine that would be much more in line with the real steel version of this magazine.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • All metal guns with good overall realistic weights.

  • Very heavy blowback on all guns, especially the KP-07 1911

  • Excellent fit and finish - best I have seen.

  • Nice mid range fps - great for on the field.

  • Very consistent accuracy for all KJWorks Airsoft guns.

  • Very believable replicas of the real steel versions.

Cons:

  • KP-2 and KP-07 did not have official licensing.

  • All seem to go through CO2/Gas fairly fast.

  • KP-02 had a rather strange looking CO2 magazine.

  • KP-02 slide did not lock back after last shot, may be due to CO2 magazine configuration.

Comments:

I guess you get what you pay for, these KJWorks Airsoft guns do fetch a bit higher price but when you take them out of the box and really look at them closely you can see why, they are pretty much flawless and the fit and tolerances are very good with very little play in the mechanical parts. Shooting these guns is just as wonderful, they all worked very well and got consistent accuracy and fps between shots. There where no ammo loading problems and no unexpected behaviors with any of these Airsoft pistols. If you can afford to pay that little bit more for one of these very high quality KJWorks Blowback Airsoft guns, you will not be let down!

EKOL Jackal Dual & Dicle Front Firing 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun Silent Auction

8 Comments

I haven't had a blank gun Silent Auction for a few months now. Not too many people are willing to give theirs up here in Canada. Today I am featuring two very good condition EKOL blank guns, both front firing and in Satin finish and both full size and full weight 15 round double stack semi auto shooters. The EKOl Dicle is semi auto only while the Jackal Dual has a selector switch for shooting in semi auto or full auto. The EKOL Dicle comes with it's original hard shell case, manual and flare adaptor while the EKOL Jackal Dual does not have a case but does come with a flare adaptor.

Remember the Silent Auctions for blank guns are primarily for my Canadian customers as blank guns are very hard to come by here in Canada. If you are interested in bidding on one or both of these guns, please send me an email with your highest bid to mike@replicaairguns.com. This Silent Auction end date is August 24th at midnight so get your bids in ASAP.

Umarex HK P30 CO2 Pellet & BB Pistol Table Top & Shooting Review

5 Comments

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.

Manufacturer:Umarex.

Model:HK P30.

Materials: Metal & plastic construction.

Weight: 1.7 pounds.

Barrel: 3.88 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, single and double action.

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

Ammunition Capacity: 8 shot pellet rotary magazine & 15 shot inline BB magazine.

FPS: 360/410

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex HK P30 is fairly nice in single action mode while shooting in double action will give your trigger finger a bit of a workout. You can fire off pretty quick in double action but not as fast as with airguns that have a lighter double action.

Accuracy: I shot the Umarex HK P30 at a target from 20 feet away in a semi rested position using both pellets and BB's to see how both ammunitions worked. I was also interested to see if pellets would perform better than the BB's? Using 6.9 grain RWS pellets I was able to get just over a one inch grouping close to the center of the target and also averaging 363 fps with my 5 shot chronograph testing. BB's did get  higher chronograph results as expected with an averaged 415 fps but grouped a bit larger at just under two inches.

Build Quality: This is an extremely well made metal and polymer air pistol with great fit and finish and a nice dense 1.7 pound weight to it. It's another "made in Germany" Umarex that uses the 8 shot rotary pellet magazines but with teh added ability to shoot BB's loaded in the full size drop out magazine? There is plastic on this air pistol but it's in the same places you would find it on the real steel HK P30. The balance, ergonomics and feel this gun offers is as good as it gets.

Realism: The Umarex HK P30 is a licensed replica of the real HK P30 semi auto pistol. It looks almost exactly like the real steel version with the exception of the break in the slide where the rotary magazine is accessible and the smaller .177 caliber muzzle opening.

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Rifled barrel for Pellets but can also shoot BB's.

  • Full H&K Licensing.

  • German made!

  • Comes in a nice hard-shell case.

  • Full size drop out magazine that holds BB's and CO2.

  • Adjustable rear sight for windage.

  • Double and Single Action trigger.

  • Rail for adding accessories.

  • Very nice holding gun, good ball acne and weight.

  • Good accuracy and power.

Cons:

  • More expensive then many entry level guns but much higher quality.

  • Barrel is not recessed at all.

  • Did not get a lot of shots form a CO2.

  • Trigger is a bit tuff in double action mode.

Comments:

I have had a lot of people ask me to review this air pistol and to be honest I thought it would be just like the other Umarex German made rotary magazine pellet shooters, and that's not a bad thing! But it is different then the rest as it is the only one that also has the ability to shoot BB's by loading up the inline drop out magazine with 15 BB's and fitting the BB adapter where the rotary magazine would normally go. I also really like the look and feel of this gun. It is the perfect size and weight, not too big or small and not to heavy or light. I would really lie to get my hands on the real steel HK P30 to see if it has similar characteristics? If you want the best of both worlds, an accurate CO2 pellet pistol and an action shooting high capacity BB shooter, you can have it all with the HK P30.

KWC Desert Eagle .50 & Sigma SW40F Blowback Airsoft Pistol Review

10 Comments

Type: Airsoft Pistols.

Manufacturer:KWC.

Model:Desert Eagle .50 & Sigma SW40F.

Materials: Metal slide & polymer frame.

Weight: 2.5/1.8 pounds.

Barrel: Metalnon-rifled smooth bore.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 21/22 rounds.

FPS: 400/390.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull for both KWC blowback single action pistols is very good, the Desert Eagle is a bit better with less play and a lighter pull while the Sigma SW40F still feels very good but has a little bit more take up and a slight bit more pull required.

Accuracy: I shot both guns from 20 feet out in semi rested position and got similar results. I was able to place 10 rounds in a 2.5 to 3 inch group and both guns shot well centered. I have full confidence that I could easily hit a man sized target from 50 feet away. Both KWC Airsoft pistols got right around 400 fps (5 shot average chrony testing) with the Desert Eagle only 10 fps higher than the Sigma SW40F and this was using .20 gram plastic Airsoft BB's.

Build Quality: The build quality for both guns is pretty much the same, both have a metal slide and barrel with a polymer frame and plastic grips, the Sigma SW40F had a plastic magazine release and trigger while the Desert Eagle used metal in these parts. The KWC Sigma SW40F seemed to wear a bit better as the painted finish seemed more durable. I found the metal on metal areas on the Desert Eagle where losing the paint and also in some of the high spots. Over all the guns worked very well and had good fit and finish.

Realism: The KWC Desert Eagle .50 and Sigma SW40F are very accurate replicas of their real steel counterparts, with the Desert Eagle also having the full licensing on it for added authenticity. The workings of both Airsoft guns are pretty much just like a real gun with full size drop out magazines and very heavy full blowback operation. The slides on each gun give a nice metallic sound when operating.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • Lots of metal and good overall weight.

  • Very heavy blowback on both guns

  • Good fit and finish.

  • Excellent fps.

  • Good accuracy with both guns.

  • Very believable replicas of the real steel versions.

Cons:

  • Paint wear in high spots noticeable on the Desert Eagle.

  • Non adjustable sights.

  • Both go through CO2 fast.

  • No trademarks on the Sigma SW40F.

Comments:

It's wonderful to get these KWC blowback Airsoft guns here in Canada finally and have the ability to review them for everyone. They remind me a lot of the Cybergun 4.5mm Steel BB blowback pistols very much and this is probably because there are Airsoft version of these guns also distributed by KWC. Whether you want one of these very nice Airsoft pistols for plinking and target practice or to use in battle on the Airsoft field, either gun would make a great choice. I am really loving the fact that I now have more guns I can review and Airsoft or 4.5mm Steel BB it really doesn't matter to me, I'm having way to much fun to care ;)

ROHM Le Petit RG-56 and Little Joe 6mm - 22 Caliber Blank Revolver Review

10 Comments

Type: Blank revolvers.

Manufacturer:RÖHM.

Model:Le Petit RG 56 & Little Joe.

Materials: Mostly metal with plastic grips.

Weight: 472/134 grams.

Barrel: Front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Action: Revolver, single & double action/Single action only

Ammunition Type: .22 caliber crimped blanks (6mm Flobert).

Ammunition Capacity: 7/5 rounds.

FPS: NA.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull for both ROHM Le Petit and Little Joe blank revolvers in single action is nice and light. The action for both blank revolvers is very solid so cocking both guns requires a firm grip, the ROHM Le Petit also allows for double action shots and while it takes some force, the mechanics are very smooth and you can really feel the German quality in the hammer and trigger.

Accuracy: NA.

Build Quality: Even though both revolvers are made as blank/signal guns and do utilize scaled down metals (not high pressure gun steel), they are made very well and many of the internal mechanical parts, pins and screws are solid steel. The fit and finish is excellent and both guns worked flawlessly for me in my testing.

Realism: Both ROHM blank Revolvers are derivatives of similar real guns (Freedom Arms and RG 22) but again have been made from the ground up to be blank guns and can not be converted in any way shape or form to fire live ammo. The quality and feel is very believable, they also both fire out the front of the barrels and can shoot 15mm flares with the required flare adaptors attached.

Available in the: Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • Sold metal construction.

  • Excellent fit and finish.

  • Made in Germany.

  • Shoot lesser expensive .22 caliber crimped blanks.

  • Can also shoot 15mm flares with appropriate flare adaptor attached.

  • Come in gift box with cleaning rod and manuals (Le Petit RG-56 also comes with flare adaptor)

Cons:

  • Real wood grips would have been a nice touch but could be added later.

  • Little Joe does not come with a flare adaptor.

Comments:

We now have some blank guns that seem to be somewhat available in Canada... At least for now! And even though some of the other blank guns I was selling may have been more to the liking of the folks that where looking for a semi auto styled blank gun, the good news is both of these guns are very high quality and revolvers in general are very dependable. I also like the fact that both of the ROHM Blank Revolvers are fairly compact and so if you want to take them with you out on a hike or in the back country, they will not take up much room or add too much weight, but are still ready if required to scare off something bigger or more dangerous than you!

Umarex Beretta 90two CO2 BB Pistol Full Review

18 Comments

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.

Model: Beretta 90two.

Materials: Metal and plastic construction.

Weight: 1.2 pounds.

Barrel: 5 inches, non-rifled.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Single & double actions.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 21 rounds.

FPS: 375+ fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Beretta 90two is respectable in both single and double action, I found the 90two to be good shooting in both actions but preferred the feel of single action for more precise shooting. In double action you fire off a lot of shots quickly but the trigger is fairly long so you need to use a full pull or you may miss a shot here or there.

Accuracy: The results I got shooting my 8 round group from 20 feet out where excellent, coming in at just under a 1 inch group which is about as good as you can expect from a BB pistol of any quality. I also got well over the factory claimed 375 fps at an average of closer to 400 feet per second.

Build Quality: The Umarex Beretta 90two does use both plastic and metal in its build with an all metal slide and feels solid in the hands but I feel it would of felt even better if it had a another half pound to it or so. I had no problems with it in terms of function and the fit and finish where very good but there is always that feeling you get when you hold something with some weight to it in your hands. I do have to credit Umarex for working in a moveable slide and full size drop out magazine.

Realism: The Umarex Beretta 90 two is very realistic and includes Beretta licensing and markings throughout. As mentioned before, the moveable slide and full size drop out magazine along with the recessed barrel makes this air pistol version look very close to the real steel Beretta 90two. The only real giveaways are the exposed CO2 tab on the bottom of the magazine and the somewhat out of place safety switch on the right side of the gun.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • Has metal working slide.

  • Full size drop out magazine that holds BB's and CO2.

  • Full Beretta Licensing and markings.

  • Single and double action trigger.

  • Rail for adding accessories.

  • Above claimed fps with good usage of CO2 and excellent accuracy.

Cons:

  • Gun could be a bit heavier for added realism.

  • Non adjustable sights.

  • CO2 tab is plastic and exposed.

Comments:

Right off the bat I have to say the Umarex Beretta 90two is a step up from the Elite II, not that there is anything wrong with the Elite II, but given the choice I would go with the Beretta 90two as it's simply a more realistic version of the Beretta 92 with its working metal slide and full size drop out magazine that holds both the BB's and CO2 in it. On the performance side of things, the Umarex Beretta 90two also met or exceeded my expectations so the 90 two is not just built for show. If your a beretta fan looking for a realistic Beretta styled air gun and don't want to spend the big bucks for the all metal German made Umarex version, then the Beretta 90two is an excellent option to consider adding to your collection or even as a first time BB gun purchaser!

Umarex Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 CO2 BB Revolver Full Review

22 Comments

Type: BB air revolver.

Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.

Model:Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8.

Materials: Mostly metal with some plastic construction.

Weight: 2.3 pounds.

Barrel: 6 inches, non-rifled.

Propulsion: 12 gram CO2.

Action: Revolver, single & double actions.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 6 rounds.

FPS: 400fps.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 is good in both single and double action, I wouldn't say it isn't supper light in either action but pretty decent overall. I found shooting in single action to be the most precise as the release point is instant. Shooting in double action was also fairly predictable.

Accuracy: The results I got shooting my 6 round group from a 20 foot out position where none other than impressive and I would have to say the 327 TRR8 shot the best group (just over a 1/2 inch) I have ever recorded using 4.5mm steel BB's. I'm not even sure if I have bettered these results using pellets from a rifled barreled pistol? This goes to show you how well an accurate BB gun can perform when shooting from a reasonable distance.

Build Quality: With the Umarex S&W 327 TRR8 Revolver being mostly metal, you would expect it to have a decent build quality and I am happy to say it does. Everything looked and fit well, the CO2 Revolver had good heft to it and I had absolutely no problems shooting this gun. My only real reservation is the plastic CO2 screw tab but so far with my other guns that have the same type of tabs, they are holding up well.

Realism: The Umarex Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 is very realistic in terms of looking and operating as a revolver with it's brass shell casings you load juts like a real revolver, so yes it feels realistic and even looks a lot like a S&W 327 TRR8 to some degree. With that said, Umarex has taken some liberty on this one most likely because it is built off an existing airgun frame and to make it into a true 327 TRR8 replica would have required a complete redesign. I would have to say the Umarex S&W M&P R8 is actually a closer 327 TRR8 Replica than the gun reviewed in this video.

Available in the:Replica Airguns Store

Pros:

  • It's a revolver with actual shells! Gives you the feeling of loading and shooting a real revolver.

  • Almost all metal design.

  • Lots of detail in this gun, very well made, fit and finish is excellent.

  • Excellent power, accuracy and shots per CO2.

  • Adjustable fiber optic sights.

  • Lots of places to mount accessories.

Cons:

  • Plastic CO2 screw tab could cause problems down the road?

  • Only shoots BB's - why not make a pellet version with a rifled barrel?

  • Actually shoots 6 rounds not 8 like the real version of this revolver.

Comments:

What's not to like about this Umarex Smith & Wesson Revolver? It's built very well, it most certainly looks good, it has the best tested accuracy I have seen so far from a BB gun, it shot even higher velocities than claimed, it gets tons of shots from a single CO2, and it loads up just like a real steel revolver but at a fraction of the cost to shoot! If you want to customize yours you have plenty of options with two weaver mounts top and bottom and it comes in at a very reasonable price tag!
