Barra 009 Reviews

Full auto is just Awesome... Co2 last a lot longer than I expected it to... Just like a real 9mm in looks, weight and shooting with the blowback action...

Make it so you can put optics on it... And the mag release could use a little adjustment... It's picky about how you push it in to release the mag..

If you're looking for realistic looks, action and feel in a full auto.. This is one I would highly Recommend

Absolutely love this gun. However the cap to the CO2 is very difficult to put in. I think I got one that wasn't threaded just right and after the first CO2 cartridge the cap has stripped out.

This is my second one! My fifth Barra in total. I got the 1911, the 7" aged finish Schofield and the 5" nickle Schofield. They're great, but this full auto 009... aka.. G18... is so much fun in a completely different way! I've seen the bad reviews about the magazine feed lips, multiple BBs spitting out in Semi, but I haven't experienced any of that. I'm lucky enough to own a bunch of BB guns so it's not like this is my only one that I'm just neglecting and beating into the dirt. I buy a second/backup of the ones I really like, and I've only done that with a handful, this being one of them. So that's really saying something about this 009. I usual trick one out with a laser, dot, light, etc and leave the other stock. It's got great kick. Accuracy is excellent on my first one. This one is no slouch, just not grouping as tightly as the first. That's smooth bore BB slingers for ya. As long as I can get a respectable group at 10 yards I'm happy. If not, I request an exchange, and you should too. I take good care of my pistols and have a couple of magazines for each, so when I feel like plinking I have options. They can't handle being beat up like a toy and left around to get knocked about. They're strong, but not strong enough to resist bigtime wear and tear. Keep them clean and oiled with pure silicone oil, put them away securely when not in use and you should have these things for a while. Don't mess around field stripping these if you don't know what your doing either. Things can, and will, go wrong. This goes for all brands, not just Barra. Having a big collection to cycle through makes it so each one isn’t getting overly used. Definitely register it with Barra. Taking care of them like this will give you a better chance of Barra possibly fixing or replacing something for you if youre not creating issues out of neglect. I haven't engaged with them but I have with other brands and they've been pretty good to me. It's winter where I live so I'm not getting much shooting in. A decent day will pop up every now and then, but once CO2 weather comes back around, which is fairly soon, these 009's will be ripping apart some Splatter targets! Along with the Schofield's and 1911's (of which I have MANY! They're my favorite pistol and Barra's model is excellent!,), and the HK's, CZ's, Beretta's, Glock's, Sigs, Walther's, Dan Wesson's, S&W's, SA XDM's, etc.... They're all dying to get out there and let loose and they all want smoke...and they're gonna get it. I highly recommend this pistol. Take care of it and you shoud be fine. I love it...obviously 😆 cheers!

this is a Nice Gun, the reason for 4 stars and not 5 is explained below. I ordered the 009 and the 1911 so I could have fun in the yard without freaking the neighbors. my first impression is this is a Real looking, very comprehensive copy of the real thing, for that I give 5 stars, weight is nice and seems close to real thing, operation is realistic, over all very nice! the reason to deduct a star was when I tried to shoot the first round of bb's from the cartridge in single shot mode, the gun had a major issue by the 5th shot and the spring that kicks the slider got stuck and then came out the front of the gun! had not even gone through the full cartridge before it did this. luckily it does come apart like the real thing and I was able to see that the Plastic piece that holds the spring in place and butts up against the front of the frame had got stuck and the spring stayed compressed, I was able to wiggle it out and make it slide again, but it was tight and kept sticking. so I ended up adding a few drops of 3 in 1 oil on the cylinder and plastic sliding piece and worked it in and now it seems to be working again, but have not tried the full auto mode yet because of this. I am not sure how come this acted like this, or if anyone else had this issue, but I have devalued the Gun in my collection due to this flaw. adding pics so you can see the parts ( this is a minor thing, but should be known and addressed.) another issue for me, is the way the rail is made on the bottom, I got a laser to put on it, but to make the standard laser fit I had to grind the laser down to fit, they need to add a few slots for the laser screw like on the 1911 which I was able to equip with a laser without modification to the laser.

The clip is a pain in the butt to get out and the screw on cap for the cartridge is next to impossible to put back on. I hate tgis gun and its bot worth the price i am paying for it.

I bought this co2 a few weeks ago when it arrived the gas was leaking and barra air guns doesn’t want to see the issue and according to their advertisement it says 1 year warranty. I’d wouldn’t recommend anyone to buy from here if it “not with the policy”

Tactical looks , beautiful color on the slide, got this about 2 months ago and works smoothly and powerful it’s also very reliable.

I bought this gun a month ago. The Barra 009 worked as it was advertised for the first CO2 cartridge but when I went to remove the screw on part that holds the CO2 in the dam thing stripped out on me on the first turn trying to remove it. Needless to say I have yet been able to remove it. So I contacted Barra and told them my problem and they sent me a new clip but they sent me out the wrong clip. So now I'm in the same boat that I was in to begin with. I've emailed them and got that same old automated message if my son didn't like this gun so much, I'm sorry but I would have been took this thing back. That screw part shouldn't have stripped out that easy and why make it like that to begin with. You guys should have made it where the screw parts built on to the part itself where you don't even have to use an Allen wrench just add the CO2 close the flap and twisted it down. For one they seal better and for two you don't have to keep an Allen wrench on you at all times while you're using the gun. I gave a 2 star review if you guys ever come thru for me with the right clip or even send me a BB barrel top then you all wouldn't have to send me the airsoft clip I can just convert the gun to shooting BBS instead of airsoft but you all do either one of these I'll change my review to a five star and I'll recommend it. .

So dope.

Don't know why the bb version has a hop up...

Has a hop up unit that causes the inaccuracies

this gun is AMAZING only bad part is that my outer barrel id broken so i have to buy a new one but other than that i def recommend

Pretty much everything besides accuracy. Weapons grade polymer, unreal trigger (like 3 lbs) rate of fire on fun switch is extremely fast for a gas gun. Grip angle and ergo are great! Glock sights! Nice trigger guard undercut and disassembles the same as a glock. You can literally field strip pistol I to its main components for cleaning. Over all Barra did a very nice job

Probably would have tried to make pistol a little more accurate with a tighter tolerance barrel. Other wise no complaints

If you are looking for a Glock 18 esc pistol than this is the one with out buying like an actual licensed Glock 18 Airsoft. Frame is just like the real glock 17 lone wolf frame! Overall a great deal for the money! I truly enjoy it and I shoot real guns all the time including Glocks! Really cool for the Airgun collection if you collect. And who knows....maybe in the future you may never be able to buy something cool like this. Excellent trainer.

The gun performs really great although the slide gets a little damaged after using full auto a couple of times but the gun works great and has no issues so far.

The Barra 009 has the same features as the glock 18c but it is less expensive so there for u can sat a Lil more money

I have bought this pistol a while back it was working fine until the barrel got loose and the slide which slides back very bad but it’s a very cool gun. And when I put a bb in it I won’t slide back.

Not much at all except is comes in a nice box

Magazine is very hard to load bb's and a slow process and not worth the effort for the amount of times you have to reload it after only 20 plus shots and threading the co2 plug back in is a nightmare

Accuracy is horrible, bb's fly in all directions even in single shot mode because of the sloppy barrel. Mine kept jamming until the slide would no longer move. I sent it back for a full refund. Thought about an exchange for a Glock gen 4, but even that gun is also very similar the the Barra

Yes, it's basically a 17 gen 4, and shares several parts with the Umarex version, but it's _full-auto_ and remarkably accurate. It also seems to be very efficient with CO2 usage - and at least in my experience, doesn't have a wheezing endgame - the blowback works really well right up to the last BB. I'm getting a very decent 3-4 mags from one cylinder. The full auto is riotous shaking serpent that never ceases to surprise, and it's about the fastest repeater I have. So far, no jams, no problems. Just be aware the design of the action means one should fire the full clip before removing the magazine, because each blowback sequence loads a BB into the breech. No extra backstraps for adjusting the grip, but my regular sized hands are quite comfortable. Once sighted in with correction (mine shoots about 2-3" low at 5 meters) the fixed sights work well. Trigger is consistent and reliable. A keeper.

I have the 009 full auto pistol and it is amazing. Best performance I've ever seen in an air pistol.

Amazing, accurate copy of a Glock 18. Pretty much the only way to get a G18. The rate of fire is very close to the real thing. It's a bit gas hungry, but with the slide moving as hard and fast as this, I expected that. It's reasonably accurate and shreds cans like a hungry piranha. We need an extended magazine for it. I'd gladly pay double for an extra extended magazine, 33rds or more. PLEASE make one!

it's fully auto...

make it all metal.

polymer frame...

I needed a Barra to complete my collection of one airgun from each of the 5 airgun companies in Arkansas. The 009 BB automatic pistol is a perfect addition to my collection. Looks and handles and feels like a firearm with the addition of being fully automatic. This is a blast to shoot. Semiautomatic or fully automatic. Great job Barra!!!
