Dual Full Auto BB Machine Gun Destruction

8 Comments

Sometimes you just got to make a video because you can and because it's just plain old fun! And that's why I made this video of me shooting some cans with dual full auto BB machine guns. One is my full auto converted and trusted Cybergun Mini UZI and the other is my newly acquired ZMZ Tyrex PPA-K-01 Russian Machine Pistol.

So sit back and enjoy, I know I did :)

Custom Polished Two-tone ASG STI Duty One 1911

5 Comments

One of my viewers sent some photos of his custom sanded and polished two-tone ASG STI Duty One 1911. Ken did an awesome job and it makes me want to do the same to mine :)

He started out by sanding off the paint with 500 grit sandpaper and working his way finer right up to 2000 grit and then finishing off with some Meguiar’s NXT Generation metal polish. The results are amazing -  see for yourself!

ISSC MK22 FN SCAR 22LR Rimfire Rifle Review

18 Comments

Type: .22 caliber rifle.

Manufacturer:ISSC.

Model:MK22.

Materials: Metal & Polymer.

Weight: 6.5 pounds.

Barrel: 16 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: Gun Powder.

Action: Semi auto, single action.

Ammunition Type: .22LR caliber rimfire.

Ammunition Capacity: 22 round magazine.

FPS: 1,138 - 1255.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the ISSC MK22 is fairly short with a bit of noticeable break point in it but overall is pretty light. I get the feeling that this may be a striker based action because of the slight tension before the release.

Accuracy: I put about 300 rounds through the ISSC MK22 and took some time getting used to how it felt and also sighting in the sights on my 4 power scope. Once I felt comfortable I setup a new target and placed a full magazine (22 shots) all with in a 2 inch group from 20 yards out (60 feet). I was in a seated position using and elbow based rest. I was very happy with these results.

Build Quality: To me the ISSC MK22 SCAR clone feels like the real deal, it's not till you load it up and fire off a few rounds that you can even tell you are shooting the .22 caliber rimefire version. The MK22 has a lot of metal parts and the fit and finish is very good. You do have to use quality .22 caliber ammo in this guns for the best results because it can be a bit picky and also make sure to also take a bit of extra time when loading your magazines to ensure the ammo is set well to the back of the magazine. I'm not saying you can't use the cheap box ammo but you will have to be prepared to clear a few rounds from time to time.

Realism: It doesn't get any more real than this, the ISSC MK22 is basically an FN SCAR in a smaller cheaper .22LR caliber. But if you want to spend $3000 on the real thing and several hundred dollars per day at the range in ammo then get the full NATO round firing version. Unfortunately my pocket book does not allow for this and I don't think we can even get the larger caliber versions here in Canada. I also go to an indoor range that allows .22 caliber rifles to be used alongside the pistols which makes getting out and using the ISSC MK22 that much easier.

Purchased From: ???

Pros:

  • One fifth the price of the NATO round firing version to purchase and operate.

  • Mostly metal construction with good usage of polymer in the right places to keep it light.

  • Lots of rails to mount just about any type of accessory you can think of.

  • Nice high capacity 22 round magazine to keep the shoots going.

  • Versatile flip up multi position sights for pistol or rifle based target acquiring.

  • Fully adjustable stock with three length positions and check hight position, can also be folded in.

  • Most bad ass looking .22 caliber rimefire rifle around.

  • Made in Germany

Cons:

  • Not the Cheapest .22LR on the market in this category but well worth the added price tag.

  • Can be a bit picky about which bullet's you use in it and how you load the magazine.

  • The rear stock cheek rest is a bit high when using the pistol sights or a low rise scope, you may need a riser under your scope.

Comments:

As you know, I don't do a lot of actual "real gun" reviews, the ones that use gun powder and shoot lead bullets. I do have a very soft spot for the .22 caliber rifles for a few reasons. Firstly, they are usually more inexpensive to buy and also to shoot as the ammo is only a fraction of the cost of the larger caliber ammo. .22 rimefire guns can also be shot in more areas and at most gun ranges so you are more likely to get better use out of it in the long run. The ISSC MK22 FN SCAR clone is definitely the most impressive .22 caliber tactical styled rifle you can get, at least in Canada and even though it is at the top of the price rang in it's category it is well worth it because it is really a very high quality gun at a reasonable price.

ISSC MK22 SCAR 22LR Rimfire On Its Way

20 Comments

As many of you may know, I don't just own a bunch of airguns and blank guns. They are one of my biggest passions but I also have my Restricted Firearms License here in Canada and I own several "Real" hand guns and rifles that I enjoy very much.

I have four .22 caliber rimfire guns and I have another one on its way - the ISSC MK22 SCAR .22LR, you may ask why I need another .22 rimfire? Well similarly to airguns, .22 caliber rimfire guns are relatively cheap to buy and operate compared to their big brother larger caliber versions. So I guess that draws me to them, they are just so fun to shoot and in a guilt-free kind of way. With large caliber guns I tend to head to the range with a preset amount of ammo that I am willing to part with and when it's all gone then it's time to switch over to the .22 calibers and go nuts! And not only that, our .22 caliber rimfire rifles do not have the magazine round restriction like our 5 round restriction on large caliber rifles.

For example, the ISSC MK22 SCAR .22LR that is on it's way costs a fraction of the price of the full on military version at around $650 Canadian, that might sound like a lot but the NATO round firing version goes for about $3000 and as far as I know is not even available in Canada to the average joe like me? And you will be counting ammo with one of these NATO round firing bad boys, at least I know I would be :)

I will be doing a full review of the ISSC MK22 SCAR 22LR so make sure to check it out if this type of gun interests you also.

Here are some of the specifications for you till I get a chance to review this awesome .22 tactical rifle!

  • Caliber: .22LR
  • Overall Length Collapsed: 34.65 in./880 mm
  • Overall Length Full: 36 in./916 mm
  • Overall Width: 2.81 in./71,5mm
  • Barrel Length: 16 in./420 mm
  • Rifling Length: 15 in./406mm
  • Number of Grooves 6
  • Sight Length Max: 15.7 in./400mm

Baikal Drozd Classic IZH MP-661K BB Machine Gun Review

4 Comments

Type: BB Machine gun.

Manufacturer:Baikal.

Model:IZH MP-661K.

Materials: Metal & Polymer.

Weight: 3.5 pounds.

Barrel: 8 inches, metal-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 or (Bulk air with adaptor).

Action: Electronic trigger with 1-3-6 round burst & 300-340-600 Rounds Per Minute.

Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 30 rounds.

FPS: 360-500.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the IZH Drozd is nice and light due to the fact that the trigger is not mechanical but is instead an electronic on-off switch that operates a solenoid. The solenoid pulsates in turn hitting the CO2 valve release. This is how the single fire and burst fire rates are achieved.

Accuracy: When I was sighting the Baikal Drozd in I got several 5 shot groups well within 1 inch 30 feet out from the target. But when I did my actual video accuracy test, the Drozd did not perform as well, getting more like a 2 inch group, still very reasonable for a gun that can shoot 600 rounds per minute out of the box and 1200 rounds per minute when modified. With metal streaming out the barrel like that you are pretty much going to hit what ever you point it at, the odds are in your favor!

Build Quality: This is a typical Russian made gun, all business and less importance put on looks but even so it is visually appealing, at least to me! Everything works exactly as it should and even though the main shell is plastic it is really a weapons grade polymer so there is no cause for concern here. There are a fair amount of metal components like the factory barrel, most of the magazine and many internal parts.

Realism: Again, the Baikal Drozd IZH MP-661K is not a replica, but it does look like a sub machine gun in many ways, I'm really just not sure exactly what it looks like but when you are shooting this gun you really don't think much about this point because you are too busy grinning!

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

  • Very well made BB machine gun.

  • Excellent power.

  • Good accuracy in all shooting modes.

  • Uses the 12 gram CO2 - a bit cheaper! (Can also convert to bulk air)

  • Stock version can shoot up to 600 rounds per minute.

  • Multiple stock lengths.

  • Rifled barrel.

  • Adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

  • Removable magazine hold BB's and CO2.

  • Many mods for this gun.

  • Great for pest control, especially the ones that don't stay still.

  • Made in Russia.

Cons:

  • 12 Gram CO2 - you need to change it often!

  • Top Accessory rail is a bit short and low.

  • Rear stock can get lose sometimes (just add some tape to tighten it up a bit).

Comments:

The Baikal IZH MP-661K is one of the most fun BB machine guns out there and well worth the extra cost to get such a quality product that not only is great out of the box but can also be modified in so many ways to improve it's performance and looks dramatically. Sure the Baikal IZH MP-661K now has a big brother, the Drozd Blackbird, but the Blackbird may be just a bit of overkill for some, I kind of like the Drozd Classics more compact size and if you can't nail what your shooting at with 30 rounds then your doing something very wrong! The Drozd is really the epitome of extreme BB gun weaponry!

Webley Alecto HP-01 .22 cal. Air Pistol Shooting Test

23 Comments

The Webley Alecto (AKA: Zoraki HP-01) may not fit in exactly as a "Replica" Airgun, although it does resemble a bloated Dessert Eagle! But it is an Airgun worthy of spending some time reviewing an this is now my third Vimeo Video review for the Webley Alecto. My first Video Review was a Table Top Review where I covered most of the Webley's basic operation. My second Vimeo Video was a Chronograph Test to see what my Webley Alecto could do performance wise for FPS.

I really wanted to do a video of this gun just shooting because that's what it does best, put lead down range very accurately! So I setup three cameras to capture it all from just about every angle I could think of and I set up 30 feet away from my target and shot 5 rounds in a rested position using a Red Dot Scope. The results where not surprising - pretty close to a 1/2 inch grouping!

If you're looking for a compact, hard hitting, accurate target or small pest control Air gun then look no further, the Webley Alecto has the goods!

Rubber Grips and Rail added to the Tanfoglio Witness 1911

4 Comments

I can't help but share some of the photos my happy viewers and customers send me and it seem like the hot item right now is the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 CO2 BB Pistol yet again.

These latest photos are brought to you by Mil3 who added rubber grips and an accessory rail to his Tanfoglio Witness 1911. He said the rubber grips only needed some slight carving out on the back side to make them fit.

Tanfoglio Witness 1911 with Wood Grips

13 Comments

 

I've had a few questions about replacing the gips on the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 BB pistol and if it is possible to use standard 1911 wood grips? The answer is yes if you don't mind spending about 15-20 minutes removing just a bit of the wood material in a few spots on the 1911 Wood Grips

Here are the instruction thanks to one of my Customers and viewers Michel:

First of all the holes are in the right place thank god for that! A dremel is the ideal tool youll need, and the whole mod.

  1. Mark out the material you want to remove.
  2. Remove the material on bottom part of each grip with a dremel using a cicular sandpaper bit.
  3. Repeat on other grip .On the top of the grip on the mag release side you might have to remove material to clear pin.

After on the other side of the mag release button make sure there is enough clearance for when you depress the button.

Here are a few pictures of the mod. Have fun:

Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 BB Gun Chronograph - Shooting & Slow-mo

5 Comments

Another filed test video in the series. This one is of the Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 4.5mm BB pistol, I show you both my regular unmodified all black PPK/S and shoot it through my Chrony Chronograph with an averaged reading of 282 FPS, not bad considering the manufacturers claim is 295.

I also shoot 8 rounds with my stock Umarex PPK/S at a target to see what kind of accuracy I get, and just for fun I shoot a 15 round magazine into the same target with my modified fully-auto sliver slided PPK/S.

To finish things up, I slowdown the action just a bit using my high speed Casio camera to capture the blowback action of both my stock and modified Umarex Walther PPK's.

Enjoy my YouTube Video of my Umarex Walther PPK/S CO2 BB pistols getting Chronographed, shooting at a target and slowed down a bit with my High Speed Camera.

Buy this gun in Canada   -   Buy this gun in the US

Henry Lever Action Rimfire .22 Caliber Rifle Overview

4 Comments

First off, you may have noticed this Henry Lever Action Rimfire .22 Caliber Rifle is not an airgun or a blank gun! So why am I reviewing it? This isn't going to be a review as much as it's going to be an overview.

I just really wanted to share this awesome little .22 caliber rimfire shooter with you because if you're like me then you may also appreciate the Henry Lever Action Rimfire .22 Caliber Rifle like I do. One reason I like airguns is because they are generally lower cost to purchase and lower cost to shoot then your average powder burner. My Henry .22 only set me back $269 and I have probably paid more for some of my airguns so this was not to bad on the pocket book. Another bonus is I can shoot this gun all day long because .22 caliber rimfire ammo is about 1/10th or less the cost of regular powder based ammo. I can buy a box of 500+ shells for under $20!

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

When purchasing a rimfire .22 caliber gun, you have to also consider what ammunition you are going to be using as not all rimfire .22 caliber guns will shoot all types of .22 caliber ammo. You can get .22 rimfire ammunition in "Long Rifle", "Long", "Short" and even "Buckshot". Keep in mind that not all .22 caliber guns will operate properly with all kinds of .22 caliber rimfire ammo. For instance, autoloaders generally require the "Long Rifle" ammunition to cycle properly. What I love about the Henry Lever Action Rimfire .22 is that it can shoot pretty much any .22 caliber rimfire ammunition you through at it except for the magnum loads which is a totally different gun altogether.

Another bonus to using the .22 caliber short ammo is that it is about as loud as a standard airgun, at least when using a rifle. So if you don't want to draw attention to yourself then pickup some shorts and plink away! Depending on what manufacturer of shorts you purchase they tend to shoot in the 700-1000 FPS using around a 20-30 grain bullet, so they are still perfectly good for small pest control. Just make sure to keep in mind what is beyond your target as a 20-30 grain bullet will penetrate objects and travel farther then a much lighter .22 caliber pellet even traveling at the same speed.

As this is just an overview I want ot cover some of the main points about the Henry Lever Action Rimfire .22 Caliber Rifle...

  • Shoots .22 caliber rimfire ammunition in Long Rifle, Long and Short.

  • Uses a Lever Action with a tube fed magazine.

  • Magazine holds: 15-LR, 17-L, 21-S.

  • Weighs 5.25 pounds.

  • Has an 18 1/4 inch barrel and is 36 1/2 inches long.

  • Has an adjustable rear sight and hooded front sight with a grooved receiver for easy scope mounting.

  • It's mostly all metal and wood.

  • Is totally fun to shoot and looks awesome!

So that's a wrap, if you want more info on this very cool .22 then check out the Henry Website.

Cybergun GSG 92 CO2 BB Chronograph Shooting & Slow-mo

No Comments

As promised, here is my Vimeo video Chronograph test along with some more shots on target for an idea on the accuracy for the Cybergun GSG 92 Beretta 92FS copy.

My Chronograph results where very good with an average 8 shot FPS result of 314, right in line with the manufacturers specifications! I also took some extra time to do some more target testing and shot the GSG 92 BB shooter at a target from 20 feet out in a free standing position and I didn't get the best grouping from it today but hey, it's got full auto too so how important is accuracy?

Lastly a pulled out my Casio high-speed camera and took some video of the blowback action of the Cybergun GSG 92FS Beretta replica at 210 frames per second.

Enjoy my Vimeo Video of the Cybergun GSG 92 CO2 BB gun getting Chronographed, shooting at a target and slowed down a bit.

Custom Baikal Drozd Full Auto 1200 Rounds Per Minute

2 Comments

I already have a customized full auto Drozd Blackbird who can pass up another Dorzd when the price is right! I will be making a double Drozd video down the road :)

My new Classic Drozd came with the Full Auto mod chip, the JimC hand made barrel, a 68ci Nitro Duck 4500 PSI carbon fiber tank and bulk air hose.

I also got the Red Dot scope with my new purchase but used one of my rial risers that fit perfectly giving my new Drozd an AR look to it.

Crosman 2240 .22 Caliber CO2 Bolt Action Pistol

2 Comments

In my recent acquisition of guns from my friend, I also procured a customized Crosman 2240 .22 caliber CO2 bolt action air pistol. It came customized with a new RJ Machine bolt, longer barrel and wood grips.

All I need to add is a nice Red Dot or low powered pistol scope and this classic CO2 air pistol will make a really nice target shooter.

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)

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

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.

Webley Alecto PCP .22 cal. Air Gun Chrony Test

2 Comments

Related Posts:

I have been wanting to do a Chrony test for my Webley Alecto as I didn't have a chronograph at the time of my original review. Today was the day I got around to it and I am really happy with the results I got. Mine came with the pressure release valve adjusted fairly conservatively. I imagine this is a generic setting that is set the same for both the .177 caliber and .22 caliber versions based on the lighter .177 caliber having a faster muzzle velocity and hittiing the 495 fps with less pressure required.

In the case of a .22 caliber pellet and it having approximately double the weight, the pressure release valve may be adjusted a bit on the light side, but I was only guessing and I wanted to make sure I didn't have an air pistol shooting over 500fps as this would make it a restricted firearm here in Canada and although I have my restricted firearms license, I didn't want to have this particular pistol governed by the rules and regulations of a restricted firearm.

So lets get to my results. I was using crosman premium 14.3 grain pellets for this test, far from the heaviest .22 caliber pellets you can get. I also tested my Webley Alecto out with one, two , three and even four pumps. Keep in mind pumping the Webley Alecto four times is not recommended by the factory and could cause long term damage to your Alecto. I did it with mine because I will ultimately get asked what an extra pump will give you in terms of extra fps. 

  • One Pump: 270.9 fps

  • Two Pumps: 390.5 fps

  • Three Pumps: 449.8 fps

  • Four Pumps: 487 fps & 496.3 fps

So as you can see, I did not go over 500 fps even with four pumps which is exactly where I wanted this pistol to be around. If you do decide to do the pressure release valve mod on your Webley Alecto, I would recommend you also test yours out on a chronograph just in case your results are different then mine, and keep in mind modifying the Webley Alecto could void your warrantee. The last thing you want to be carrying around is an illegal firearm!

Baikal Makarov MP-654K Flush CO2 Screw

7 Comments

This post is for any of you lucky North American Baikal Makarov owners out there, or for anyone thinking of getting a Baikal Makarov MP-654k.

We had some custom CO2 screws made up that fit the Baikal Makarov's BB-CO2 magazine perfectly and make the Makarov replica look virtually identical to the real steel. It's kind of a shame the Baikal Makarov didn't come this way from the factory but at least now you have the option of improving on an already great product.

Cybergun - KWC Mini UZI BB Gun Full Auto Modification

39 Comments

Related Posts:

"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.

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:

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!

CYBERGUN Mini UZI BB GUN REVIEW

17 Comments

Related Posts:

Type: BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: Cybergun.

Model: Mini UZU.

Materials: Metal and Polymer.

Weight: 4.8 pounds.

Barrel: Metal, non-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x1.

Action: Semi auto (Selectable Full Auto with Mod) blowback, single action only.

Ammunition Type: Steel BBs 4.5mm.

Ammunition Capacity: 25 rounds

FPS: 344

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull is very light with an easy break.

Accuracy: Very good, even with all the heavy blowback recoil!

Build Quality: Excellent, with a good amount of metal construction, good weight and craftsmanship with good fit and finish. Much of the gun is made out of metal with the exception of some of the outer receiver and grips.

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!
