• EKOL VOLGA 9MM P.A.K. BLANK GUN REVIEW

• EKOL JACKAL DUAL 9MM P.A.K. BLANK GUN REVIEW

• EKOL DICLE 9MM P.A.K. BLANK GUN REVIEW

Type: Blank Gun.

Manufacturer:EKOL - VOLTRAN.

Model: Jackal Dual - Dicle - Volga

Materials: Mostly Metal.

Weight: 2.5 - 2.5 - 1 pounds.

Barrel: Semi plugged - front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Action: Semi/full auto single action - Semi auto single/double action - semi auto single action.

Ammunition Type: 9mm P.A.K. blanks.

Ammunition Capacity: 15 - 15 - 6 round magazines.

FPS: N/A.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull for the Jackal Dual and Dicle is fairly light to medium in weight and with the Volga it's a bit harder with more of a medium to heavy trigger pull. I have noticed it getting lighter over time as I work the gun in.

Accuracy: N/A.

Build Quality: The build quality is similar to that of my Zoraki guns, I have not shot the guns so I can not say yet how they will chamber and fire rounds, but my first impressions after spending some time looking them over and handling them is that they are well built and use good materials. There finish quality is typical of other Turkish guns - good but not perfect.

Realism: The EKOL Jackal Dual is the most realist of the three guns, and I say that because it closely resembles the Beretta 92 FS. And it does look very much like the Beretta 92 FS in many ways. The Dicle and the Volga however do not closely resemble any other guns that I can think of. The closest gun to the Dicle I would have to say is the Beretta PX4, but the Dicle is more like a PX4 and a Sig Sauer combined into one gun. The Volga is similar in design but not spot on to other small .25 Automatic sub compact pistols.

Purchase From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• In Canada these guns are some of the few blank guns available for purchase that are not prohibited.

• Very good construction, lots of metal parts and good weight to these blank guns.

• EKOL has a nice assortment of styles and colors to choose from.

• In the case of the Jackal, this gun would make a good Beretta 92 FS blank shooting replica.

• Great training guns, as they operate exactly like real guns without the deadly force.

Cons:

• Jackal Dual's rear safety is non-functioning, this is a bit confusing.

• 9mm P.A.K. Blank ammo is expensive.

• Volga's trigger pull is a bit heavy but it seems to be getting better over time.

• Hard to get an empty magazine out of the Volga when the slide is back.

Comments:

These EKOL VOLTRAN blank guns are 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. The quality and finish is better than I expected from EKOL, almost matching the Zoraki products and that's a pretty high pedestal to achieve. If you are thinking about getting a blank shooter, definitely take a look at the EKOL VOLTRAN line of blank guns.

One of my viewers mentioned that the EKOL Volga looks a lot like the Tanfoglio GT27.

Umarex introduced a few new Airguns at the SHOT show this week, two of them (the PPQ and S&W M&P 45) look to be BB/Pellet shooters that house a rotary magazine within the slide (similar to the Umarex Walther CPSport). From the closeup picture of the Umarex Walther PPQ, it looks like it is going to retail for around $70! I wonder if it has as much metal as teh other Umarex products similar in design?

I'm not sure if the Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 BB/Pellet shooter uses a rotary magazine like the PPQ but I would bet money it does.

And lastly Umarex has introduced a new BB Air Gun Revolver, the Smith & Wesson R8 BB Revolver. Judging by the photo, I'd have to say it looks a bit like they used similar ideas you'd find in the Dan Wesson CO2 Air pistol.

Source info/photos came from this link.

Crosman introduced the Crosman C51, their latest Blowback CO2 BB pistol in 4.5mm - .177 caliber. It looks a lot like a Glock or perhaps the Umarex SA177, nevertheless it looks like a nice gun!

I don't have too much on it just yet for specifications other than it takes up to 20 - 4.5mm steel BB's, uses a standard 12 gram CO2 cartridge, and of course is a blowback operated gun with a metal slide and polymer frame.

I'll let you know more when I know more...

• TWO NEW AIRGUNS - UMAREX PPK/S AND UMAREX BERETTA ELITE II

• WORLDS SMALLEST FULL AUTO BB GUN

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer:Umarex.

Model:Walther PPK/S (Black).

Materials: Mostly metal with some plastic parts.

Weight: 1.2 pounds.

Barrel: 3.5 inches, metal non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, blowback, single action.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 15 round magazine.

FPS: 295.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on this gun is very light as a result of the true blowback action cocking the hammer with each shot.

Accuracy: For a short barreled non-riiffled BB pistol it tested fairly well with most of the BB's grouping within a 2 inch area at 20 feet out. There where some stragglers however.

Build Quality: This gun is almost entirely metal with the exception of the pistol grips, safety lever, magazine and outer barrel shroud. It has excellent detail and the fit and finish are pretty good.

Realism: The Umarex PPK/S is a replica of the actual Walther PPK/S, well know in the popular 007 James Bond movies. It has the Walther licensing on it in all the right places and overall looks a lot like the real Walther PPK/S with the exception of the lower handle and magazine release area. The handle on the BB version is a bit too long and the oversized CO2 piercing screw really takes away from the potential realism of this gun. That said, it's rather easy to cut the piercing crew shorter and add a notch in it so you can alternatively use a screwdriver to tighten it and gain back a bit more realism.

Purchased From:The Replica Airgun Store.

Pros:

• Good reproduction of the original Walther PPK/S.

• Would make an excellent training gun as it has a similar size, weight, and feel to the actual Walther PPK/S.

• Blowback action and very light trigger pull makes it really fun to shoot.

• Decent accuracy for a short barreled BB pistol.

• Inexpensive but good overall quality (made in Japan)

Cons:

• Heavy usage of CO2.

• Fairly low 295 FPS.

• Plastic magazine and out of place safety lever.

• The CO2 piercing screw is really ugly and a realism killer for this gun.

Comments:

The Umarex Walther PPK/S BB pistol in my opinion is a must have collector piece. Even if you're not a big airgun fan, this is a great way to own virtually the same gun James Bond used in his early 007 movies. The Umarex PPK is a well made fun shooter at an affordable price with surprisingly not too bad accuracy.

• EKOL DICLE 9MM P.A.K. BLANK GUN REVIEW

As I mentioned with my two new BB guns, my mailbox yesterday was teaming with goodies! I also received three new EKOL (Voltran) Blank Guns. The EKOL Jackal Dual, Dicle and the Volga. The Jackal is basically a Beretta 92 FS Replica while the EKOL Dicle and EKOL Volga do not look super close to any one particular pistol. They are all 9mm P.A.K. front shooters, I decided to purchase mine in a variety of different finishes: Gloss black, Satin, and Fume.

I have not had a chance to shoot these guns but initially I am very pleased with the overall quality and finish, like my Zoraki Blank Guns, they are also made in Turkey.

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

The Beretta look alike Jackal Dual is both semi and full auto selectable, and is really a very solid gun with a beautiful glossy back finish. Probably the nicest finish out of the three.

The EKOL Dicle (not sure who named this gun) kind of looks like a gun that a Sig Suaer and Beretta PX4 gave birth to! It really looks in many ways like a bit of both of them. Again I was impressed with how solid this gun was. I really like the two-tone satin look of this blank shooter.

My EKOL Volga looks a bit like a Titan E27 .25 Automatic in some ways and again has a two-tone look but not as drastic as the Satin finish on my EKOL Dicle. This blank gun is even smaller than my Zoraki M906 yet still chambers six 9mm P.A.K. blank rounds in the magazine.

Of course I will follow this post up with some reviews of these fine 9mm P.A.K. blank guns...

S&W M&P - 480

Trigger Pull: On all these guns the trigger pull is about medium with a bit of a break near the end. Only the Makarov has Single Action capability which gives it a much nicer and lighter trigger pull when desired.

Accuracy:

Colt Defender - At 20 feet in standing unrested position I got about a 2 inch group from 10 rounds.

H&K USP - At 20 feet in standing unrested position I got about a 2 inch group from 10 rounds.

S&W M&P - At 20 feet in standing unrested position I got about a 1.5 inch group from 10 rounds.

Makarov - At 20 feet in standing unrested position I got about a 1 inch group from 10 rounds.

Build Quality:

Colt Defender - Mostly metal with plastic grips, the gun had good finishing and a hefty weight to it.

H&K USP - Mostly good quality plastic with a full metal, full size magazine that gave the gun a solid feel

S&W M&P - Almost entirely plastic, it felt more like a toy then a gun because of it's light weight and shinny finish.

Makarov - Mostly metal with plastic grips and safety. This gun has good weight, feel and finishings.

Realism:

Colt Defender - Even though this BB gun is mostly metal, there are not a lot of moving parts, most parts where moulded into the gun and un-operational with the exception of the trigger and magazine release button.

H&K USP - I found it easy to forget about all the plastic in this air gun because of the excellent detail, everything is exactly right where it's supposed to be!

S&W M&P - On paper this gun is the right size and shape and pretty much looks like the real S&W M&P. You just don't want to get too close or pick it up or the illusion is lost.

Makarov -  An overal good replica with a moving slide that's even filed strip-able. The paint is a bit shinny but it makes for a nice looking gun overall.

Purchased thes guns at: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Colt Defender - Mostly metal, high FPS.
• H&K USP - Very realistic, full metal full size drop out magazine.
• S&W M&P - Surprisingly good accuracy, high FPS, drop out metal magazine.
• Makarov - Mostly metal, moving slide, double and single action, drop out metal slide.

Cons:

• Colt Defender - Most moving part are non-functional, no drop out magazine.
• H&K USP - More metal and a moving slide would have been a nice touch.
• S&W M&P - Lots of cheap plastic, no real weigh to it, parts mostly moulded into the air pistol.
• Makarov - No blowback, no slide catch, paint is a bit shinny.

Comments:

I had very low expectations for most of these guns based on their low price point. But in the end, I was impressed with at least a couple things about them each of them! I can honestly recommend all of them but just make sure you buy them for the right reasons... If you want a high FPS and accurate target BB pistol then take a look at the Umarex S&W M&P. If you want an all metal gun with lots of moving parts then the Umarex Makarov is probably for you. If you're looking for a very close replica that's got a full size drop out magazine then you probably want the Umarex H&K M&P. If you want something that is super solid and almost indestructible then get then the Umarex Colt Defender juts might fit that bill.

My low cost Replica BB guns arrived today! The Colt Defender, H&K USP and S&W M&P came in standard clear plastic packaging while the Makarov was the only air gun packaged in a box which is always a nice touch!

Now I haven't shot any of these guns yet, but I did get the chance to open all the packaging and give them a quick once over. My opinions of some of these guns may change after shooting them, depending on how they do, but as it stands I will give my first impressions of the guns. I'm not going to get into all the details as I will be doing individual reviews on each BB gun down the road. So here's a few pros and cons for each replica BB gun based on their first impressions:

Umarex Colt Defender 4.5mm CO2 BB Pistol:

The Umarex Colt Defender is basically a nice looking and fairly heavy all metal BB replica that feels good in the hand and has the Colt markings. It has a medium trigger pull with fairly good finishing.

The down side, it has no removable magazine, and most of the guns external mechanical parts like the hammer, slide release and safety, are molded into the metal and are non-operational.

Umarex Makarov 4.5mm CO2 BB Pistol:

Next we have the Umarex Makarov, this one is probably my immediate favorite out of the bunch for reasons like: It came in a box and has a movable and removable slide. For the most part it is all metal including the drop out magazine. The trigger pull again is about medium and even the safety is in the right place and is actually functional.

Some of my dislikes for this gun are the non-functioning slide release, so even though in this picture it looks like the slide is locked back, it's actually not (I'll show you how I did this in the future video!!). There is also no blowback action with this gun but to be fair, non of the other guns in this comparison have blowback either!

Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P CO2 BB Pistol:

I'm sorry to say the Umarex S&W M&P so far is my least favorite of the bunch, but first let's be positive... It's the right size and shape, has all its bits and pieces and markings in the right places so it would make an excellent low cost prop gun for sure! It is also the only gun with fiber optic sights and it does have a drop out metal magazine.

Now for the bad. When you pick this gun up it just feels cheap and plasticy, more like a toy then a gun! the trigger is OK but it's just so hard to get over the weight and feel of this BB gun. I hope it is a dream to shoot, that might be it's saving grace for me.

Umarex H&K USP CO2 BB Pistol:

OK, so let's leave of on a good note. The Umarex H&K USP was a close second to the Makarov in terms of first impressions with these low cost replica air guns. Even though a lot of the gun is plastic, it has a good weight and feel to it, this is partially due to the full size drop out metal magazine. The Umarex H&K USP also has everything in all the right places including the H&K markings and it too takes advantage of using the safety lever as originally intended, not just molded into the frame for show. Non of the guns had overly heavy trigger pulls and the H&K USP was no exception.

On the down side, it would have been nice to have a metal working slide to finish it off, and even though the hammer moves when the trigger is pulled, it's really only for show as it does not stay back and allow for both single and double action operation. Instead you can only shoot in this gun in double action.

So that about wraps up this initial overview of my first impressions of the Umarex Colt Defender, H&K USP, S&W M&P, and Makarov Replica BB guns. Next I will be shooting a YouTube table top comparison review of these low cost replica BB guns, so make sure to check back!

I am a bit of a stickler for blowback air guns, and if they don't have blowback, then they have to offer other points of realism that will win me over. Like with the Baikal Makarov and how it's pretty much a real Makarov but converted to shoot BB's.

So in some ways I'm a bit of an airgun snob and I have tended to stay away from the lower cost replica air guns for reasons like: Too much plastics, no blowback, too many non-working parts... Well I'm throwing it all in the wind for this next batch of airguns I am going to review and compare. They all sell for well under $100 and some even below $50. What they all have in common is that they are decent looking replicas of the original guns they represent and they all happen to be made by Umarex.

The guns are availabe in the Replica Airguns Store:

Umarex Colt Defender CO2 BB Pistol

Umarex H&K USP CO2 BB Pistol

Umarex S&W M&P CO2 BB Pistol

Umarex Makarov CO2 BB Pistol

When they get here I plan to do a full side-by-side comparison review of these Umarex replica CO2 BB guns and compare them based on accuracy, build quality, realism and shoot-ability. So make sure to check back and see how these air pistols compare?

"Before you attempt to do this modification you need to be aware that it may void your warrantee and/or you may fail and either break something or incorrectly reassemble your Mini UZI rendering it "Broked"! This is your problem so please do not attempt this modification (even though it is fairly easy to do) unless you're 100% confident you can do it and are aware of the possible consequences. Make sure to also take into account any gun laws in your area prohibiting full-auto capable firearms!"

(Special thanks to Herman for showing me the ropes on this modification)

This modification will make your semi-auto "only" Cybergun/KWC Mini UZI BB Gun into a full auto capable 4.5mm BB machine gun. From the factory the full auto switch position (Far Left "A") is disabled but the full auto selector position is visible. The actual full-auto functionality is still present in the Mini UZI but has been decommissioned by the simple means of blocking the selector switch from being moved to the far left full-auto or "A" position.

This full auto modification will show you how to disassemble the Cybergun - KWC Mini UZI BB Gun and remove the small plastic selector switch blockage so you will be able to manually switch between semi auto and full auto modes. This modification takes about 15 minutes to complete.

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

You will need the following tools: A pair of pliers and either a pair of small wire cutters or a file.

Let's begin! Below are the two pre-modification positions available from the factory:

"S - SAFE"

"R - SEMI AUTO"

Below is a closeup of the top bolt cover that we will be removing to access the internal bolt for removal:

In the next photo we have removed the bolt cover by pressing the "angled button" towards the rear sight:

And now the bolt is removed:

I removed the grips but this is not necessary:

Now you will need to remove the lower receiver pin located at the back end of the receiver closest to the grip safety. Use a pair of pliers to pinch the metal pin while pushing it through. Once the pin is started you can use the pliers on the other side to pull the pin all the way out. You may need to us a fair amount of force to do this as the fit of the pin is tight:

Once the pin is removed the lower receiver can be detached:

You can see in the picture below the small plastic nub that we will need to remove in order to restore full-auto capability:

I used a pair of small wire cutters to clip this plastic nub off, but you could use a file too. Just make sure that the plastic is flush and does not have any burs or protrusions.

Below is a photo of the Plastic Nub removed from another angle:

After that, all you need to do is reassemble you Mini UZI in revers order to finnish the Full Auto modification.

In the below Photos you can see we have restored the ability to move the fire selector switch over to the "Far Left" or "A" position, reenabling the Cybergun - KWC Mini UZI BB Gun to shoot in full auto when desired.

"A - FULL AUTO"

Now enjoy your Cybergun - KWC Mini UZI BB Gun in full-auto as it was originally designed!

Realism: This is a very close replica of the actual real steel with many of the same markings in all the right places, It's hard to find any real differences other than the fact that it shoots 4.5mm BB's and has a bit more plastic.

Pros:

• Extremely realistic airgun replica of the Mini UZI.

• Metal construction where it counts.

• Would make an excellent training gun as it functions just like a real Mini UZI.

• Blowback action is incredibly firm (more than a rimfire 22 cal.) adding to the realism of shooting this weapon.

• Can be easily field striped.

• Can be easily modified to fire in either Semi Auto or Full Auto by removing one small plastic blockage.

• Adjustable sights.

• Very useful metal folding stock.

Cons:

• It goes through CO2 very fast.

• When the magazine is empty, the slide bolt does not stay open and the gun will continue to fire waisting CO2.

• Some of the outer materials are plastic, would have been nice if they too where metal construction.

Comments:

This is a really nice blowback BB gun. Although it is advertised on many websites as being all metal, it does have some plastic outer parts, but the parts that get the most wear and tear are made out of metal. That aside, the Cybergun Mini UZI is pretty much an exact copy of the real Mini UZI with many of the same markings as the original. One feature that makes it feel even more genuine is the very heavy blow back recoil, it is alarming at first and I would even say it has more recoil than a rimfire 22 cal. gun does. It only comes in a semi auto version but all Cybergun did to inhibit full auto mode was to simply add a plastic nub that stops the fire selector switch from being selected to full auto. Once this plastic nub is removed, full auto mode is resorted. This well made BB gun is a bit pricy but you get a lot of gun for your money!

Type: Blank Gun.

Manufacturer: Zoraki - Atak Arms.

Model:Zoraki M906.

Materials: Metal & Polymere.

Weight: .9 pounds.

Barrel: Semi plugged - front firing.

Propulsion: Gun powder.

Build Quality: The overall build quality of this gun is awesome. The design and materials all seem to be of good quality. After I received my Zoraki Mod.925 and saw how well ATAK Arms made it's polymer components, I was actually expecting the M906 to be as good if not better. I was not disappointed! ATAK Arms put excellent thought into using metal and polymer materials to their full advantage, making the frame and handle out of polymer and where it really counts, metals are used; Slide, Barrel, and most other mechanical parts. The slide feels as well made as you would find in an actual firearm. The overall quality is that of an actual Firearm!

Realism: This gun is not supposed to be a replica of any gun in production but it does look like a shrunken down Sig Sauer in some ways and hey I love the Sigs. The Zoraki M906 looks and feels like a real gun, always make sure to take precautions when using this realistic looking blank shooter!

Disclaimer:
"This article is only intended as a guide and may not be 100% accurate, please check your areas gun laws and regulations for more information on this subject."

I want to talk about two very important Air Gun safety topics (Any gun for that matter). Those two topics are: Handling and Storing your guns.

In Canada we are required by law to take a gun operation and safety course in order to get our PAL (Possessions and Acquisitions) license. A PAL license is required to purchase firearms and ammunition but is not necessary for most BB and Pellet guns that shoot under 500 fps. Personally, I think a firearms course is a great idea for anyone to take, even if you don't plan on getting a gun but you maybe have some interest or concerns about guns.

The biggest problem with guns is the ignorance surrounding them. I'm not saying people who don't like guns are stupid, but rather that in many cases they simply don't understand guns and it scares them. What's even worse than this is when a firearms owner has no idea on how to properly handle and store their firearms. When you put both of these scenarios together you get a bad combination that in turn makes it more difficult for pro-gun and anti-gun advocates to see eye to eye.

I definitely don't want to start a debate on this issue but rather provide safety information for those choosing to own and operate guns.

General Gun Handling Tips:

• Make sure you understand your areas gun handling laws.
• Safety check your gun - Make sure your gun is unloaded (visual inspection) at all times unless you are ready to shoot it. (If you use the gun for home or personal defense and need it to be loaded at all times, make sure to keep it securely holstered or stored in a safe manor so that it does not fall into the wrong hands)
• Get familiar with your gun while it is unloaded, read the owners manual, learn the workings and features of your gun until you are comfortable with it.
• If your gun has a safety make sure you know how to operate it but do not become dependent on the safety alone.
• Always wear eye protection and if your gun is loud, use appropriate ear protection.
• Treat your gun likes it's loaded and off of safe mode at all times. The most dangerous gun is one that is believed to be unloaded. Many people treat unloaded guns with less respect than they do a loaded gun and pay a severe price for it when they find out the gun was actually loaded.
• Only place your finger on the trigger of the gun when you are ready to shoot at your target. The best safety feature on any gun is your trigger finger. When you are not shooting, place your finger across the trigger guard, this acts as a physical barrier helping to protect the trigger from an accidental or unintentional misfire.
• If you are holding the gun but it is not in use, point it slightly forward but mostly toward the ground. When on a gun range, keep your gun pointed down-range in the direction of the target at all times.
• Always know what is behind and beyond your target and never shoot over the crest of a hill. Some ammunition can travel several miles and still be dangerous. Even a pellet or BB if shot upwards at a slight angle can travel a few hundred yard and impact a person with enough energy to inflict harm.
• Don't use your scope as a pair of binoculars to see what is out there. Use binoculars, that's what they are for. Would you like to be at the receiving end of a set of cross-hairs?
• When you are finished using your gun remove the ammunition, safety check and secure it.

Gun Storage Tips:

• Make sure you understand your areas gun storage laws.
• In Canada most  air guns that shoot under 500 fps are not required to abide by the same storage laws as licensed firearms but practicing safe gun storage for any gun is always a good idea.
• Safety check your gun - Make sure your gun is unloaded (visual inspection) before placing in storage.
• Make sure to have at least one level of lock prevention, this could be a gun safe or a gun trigger lock or cable lock. I recommend using a trigger lock on your gun and placing it in a gun safe. Keep your gun safe or case keys in a secure area out of sight.
• Keep your ammunition and firearms in different locations. This is not necessary in Canada but a good general idea.
• Keep your firearms out of sight and keep the temptation out of the picture.
• If you have a dedicated home defense gun that you want easy access to, keep it in a gun safe beside your bed with an easily accessible touchpad combination lock. You can have a loaded magazine in the safe with your gun, just not in the gun. (This scenario is Canada Gun Law Friendly!)
• Gun storage laws when transporting your firearm are often different than when storing a gun in your home, make sure you understand these laws in your area. For example: In Canada we have to have an "ATT" transportation permit (Authorization to Transport) that allows a gun holder to transport their firearm from their home and to the range and/or to a gun smith. Any detours from point A to point B must be within reason. (No dropping by the bar on the way home from the gun range) Furthermore, licensed pistols must be unloaded and trigger locked in a hard shell case that also has a lock on it. Ammunition is not allowed in the case with the gun in transport and your gun needs to be in the trunk of your car or in an out of sight area if you have a truck.

Hopefully you have gotten at least something out of this gun handling and storage awareness article. My hope is that many of you will take this to heart and if you don't already practice safe gun handling and storage, you will start today!

I couldn't help myself, I have all the Zoraki Blank Guns except for the latest Zoraki M906. This is Atak Arms most compact blank gun and it's even smaller than the Zoraki Mod.914. It does come at a bit of an ammo capacity cost as the M906 can only hold 6 rounds due to its shorter and thinner handle.

The Zoraki M906 appears to have more usage of composite component, so it should be a very light gun. It also has a more traditional design than Zoraki's other automatic blank shooter.

I'm looking forward to receiving my new addition some time late next week...

Here's a quick Vimeo video of the Zoraki Mod. 925 P.A.K. Blank pistol firing off some blank rounds. First I shoot two rounds off in semi-auto mode and then switch the Zoraki 925 over to full-auto and fire off the last 10. The Magazine I used is capable of holding 26 rounds but hey, that would have been about the equivalent in cost to 4 Starbucks Mochas!

• UMAREX MAGNUM RESEARCH DESERT EAGLE BLOWBACK PELLET PISTOL CHRONOGRAPH TEST

Type: Pellet air pistol.

Manufacturer: Umarex.

Model:Magnum Research Desert Eagle.

Materials: Exterior mostly polymer with internal metal parts.

Weight: 2.4 pounds.

Barrel: 5.7 inches, metal-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, blowback, double and single action.

Ammunition Type: .177 cal. Pellets.

Ammunition Capacity: 8 rounds - rotary magazine.

FPS: 425.

Trigger Pull: The trigger uses two stages. The first stage rotates the magazine while the last stage releases the hammer. When in double action mode the trigger also engages the hammer. Overall the trigger pull I would consider to be a medium pull yet smooth making it easy to shoot on target.

Accuracy: Very good, the Umarex Desert Eagle makes a great semi-auto target shooter as far as 30 to 40 feet out.

Build Quality: Even though the external shell of the Desert Eagle is mostly plastic, it is still a very well made gun. Most of the internal parts that matter seem to be made out of metal. The fit and finish is also very good.

Realism: This is a very close replica to the real actual Magnum Research Desert Eagle with licensed trademarks and most everything in all the right places. However, other than the safety lever, many of the mechanical aspects of the gun are either non-functioning or serve an alternative purpose. The slide release actually opens the loading bay by making the barrel slide forward. The disassembly lever is non-functioning and is molded into the plastic along with the magazine release button.

Purchased this form: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Good reproduction of the original Magnum Research Desert Eagle.

• Would make an excellent training gun as it has a similar size, weight, and feel to the actual Desert Eagle handgun. (With obviously much less kick :)

• Blowback action and loud report add to the realism of shooting this pellet pistol.

• Nice high FPS for a blowback pellet gun.

• Good accuracy.

• Adjustable rear sight.

• Picatinny rail on top and bottom for accessories like a scope, red dot, laser sight and/or tactical light.

Cons:

• Heavy usage of CO2.

• Slide does not stay back after 8th shot so you need to count them off or you end up wasting CO2 before you realize no pellets are coming out.

• No way to keep the slide back, no working slide release.

• Lots of usage of plastic, would have been nice to have seen more metal in it.

• Large gun, not suitable for people with small hands.

Comments:

The Umarex Desert Eagle is a very unique pellet blowback air pistol, there are very few airgun pistols that include blowback, shoot pellets and have decent accuracy and FPS . The Umarex Desert Eagle is a very close replica of the original Magnum Research Desert Eagle. It has very good accuracy but you can only expect about 32 good shots (4 magazines) out of a CO2 cartridge. If you're looking for an airgun that may be a bit of a handful and can get over the abundance of plastic and hunger for CO2, than you will be rewarded with a predictable, accurate and enjoyable true semi-auto target pistol.

• UMAREX PX4 STORM PELLET GUN REVIEW

• BERETTA CX4 RIFLE & PX4 STORM TACTICAL PISTOL ADDED TO COLLECTION

I've already done a review of the Non-Tactical Umarex PX4 Storm CO2 Blowback Pellet-BB Airgun so make sure to read up on it and also checkout my YouTube Video Review.

This post/video is mainly just to show you what the differences are between the Tactical Recon Version and Non-Tactical versions of the PX4 Storm and talk a little about the added accessories included in the Tactical version.

The base gun is literally exactly the same except for the two-tone coloration on the Tactical version. The Tactical version obviously comes with the addition of several accessories which makes it the "Tactical Model".

Firstly, there is the addition of the Suppressor. With an airgun, usually a suppressor is mainly for show as sound level is not often an issue! That said, an airgun can benefit from a suppressor in one big way - a longer barrel meaning more FPS. Unfortunately Umarex did not take advantage of adding barrel length to the PX4 Tactical model and I'm not really sure why? Even with a longer barrel I double that the PX4 Storm would exceed 500 FPS excluding it from the Canadian market. That's just my two cents on the suppressor but on a good note it seems to be all metal and well built.

There is also the addition of a "Tactical Bridge Mount" that allows you to add more accessories than just the under barrel ones available to the Non-Tactical version. The Tactical Bridge Mount actually gives you four location to mount more accessories - (bottom, top and both sides). The Tactical Bridge Mount is not the most ridged of mounts but it does the job and because it is more flexiable it may be less prone to breakage in a fall.

Umarex takes advantage of these rail locations by including a Red-Dot scope on the top and a Tactical Light on the left side. The Red-Dot scope is decent but there is room for improvement as it's fairly entry level. The Walther Tactical Light on the other hand is very nice and comes with a pressure sensitive thumb grip switch.

All in all you will pay about double for the PX4 Storm Recon over the basic PX4 Storm but it does make for an intimidating looking hand gun especially if you're into that tactical look!

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull is short and smooth, typical of a semi auto action.

Accuracy: NA.

Build Quality: The overall build quality of this gun is excellent. The design and materials all seem to be of good quality. I was actually not expecting this gun to be as well built and finished as it was. Inside it has a metal frame based on the MOD 914 Zaraki with an exo-shell made of a polymer type material. It also comes in a very nice hard shell case with cut outs for everything included. (The Zoraki MOD 925 blank gun, 16 round and 26 round extended magazine, cleaning rod, oil bottle, alternate barrel tip, barrel changing tool, and flare adaptor)

Realism: This gun is not supposed to be a replica of any gun in production but it does look a bit like a mini sub machine pistol. The Zoraki 925 looks and feels like a real gun, so make sure to take precautions when using this blank mini machine gun!

Purchased From:CanadaAmmo.com.

Pros:

• In Canada it is one of the few blank guns available for purchase that is not prohibited.

• Excellent construction, all metal internal frame with high quality external polymer shell.

• Well priced for what you get even at the newer higher pricing.

• Magazines interchangeable with the Zoraki MOD 914.

Comments:

The Zoraki MOD 925 is a sweet full auto machine pistol and if you can find one is a great addition to anyone blank gun collection. When compared to other full auto blank firing machine guns or pistols (Voltran Ekol UZI 9mm P.A.K. Blank Gun / Voltran Jackal air pistol) it is well priced but does not sacrifice in quality!

I had an idea the other day, Since I have all these Replica Guns and just about any TV show, Movie or even Internet Video that uses guns is going to need guns that look real, why not put my Replica Guns along with myself up for hire!

The first thing one must do with an idea like this is a bit of research to make sure there aren't any major road blocks like the law, and getting thrown in jail, so I called my local RCMP Chief Firearms Officer and we had a talk. Long story short, if I can buy the guns I'm going to be using without a firearms license, then I don't need a Business Firearms License to use my guns on set.

What most large budget TV and Film productions do is a hire a "Gun Wrangler" who is authorized to transport and supervise real steel guns on set - Very Expensive!!!

So with my much lower overhead and next to no red tape I can now offer a large and growing assortment of Replica guns for use on set in TV and Film. Right now I am only offering this in Canada, in the Vancouver and lower mainland areas.
