cute little backup for those special close encounters. kicks like a mule too. as one of the few guys around to actually use one i can say it's a great little gun for the money. could get expensive (in airsoft terms) to operate as it only runs on 12g co2 powerlets, but for the rare times you use it, who cares. and where does one get a full metal gbb with extreme recoil for $149 can anyways?

those things are super super super cheap in the states but not a lot of people use them. So I think there's got to be a downside to them we don't know about...

The way it looks is probably what hurts it the most.

That's a truly bizarre gun - I'm almost certain it's a converted Umarex Walther PPK/S...

That being said, I doubt too many people have one, so aside from the few pointers you've gotten here, there's probably not much to hear about them.

I read the mags were cheap plastic and that they were hard or impossible to purchase (without purchasing a new gun ).

I guess if you plan on getting on might as well get 2...or just get a decent airsoft gas pistol...

Do yourself a favor, stop looking for the cheapest possible gun. Stop now.

Or, be extremely disappointed when everyone on the field completely owns your ass.

Handguns are secondary pieces. Good ones are expensive for a reason. And unless you are one of those extremely rare folks who are that good at this game, forget it.

Are you planning on attending games or just screwing around at home? Because if you plan on just plinking you might as well get a CT crossman pistol

Please enlighten us, then. I'm more than interested in the alternate meaning. Since none of us know you personally, think about what we have to judge you on:

- you're 19
- you want a very cheap, full metal replica handgun
- you list your interests in your profile as "Hangin out at a bar or a club n hangin wit me homies" - there's some quality wannabe thug gangsta talk.
- your email address in your profile is "piru-block-bloods@hotmail.com" - gee, that doesn't sound like a gang tag to me. Why not check out these links to find out a bit more about the "Piru Block Bloods"?
http://www.streetgangs.com/bloods/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloods

Inquiring minds like mine want to know what the real meaning of all this is, if it's not to glorify thug life.
