The looks finish and weight are very nice. It is fun to shoot.

Now that I got use to how the right comes off to load a CO2 cartridge I wouldn't change a thing.

This is a great gun. It looks very authentic just like the real P08. It feels good in your hand and is very easy to load and shoot. It took about 100 rounds through it to get it to do a 2 inch group at 10 yards. Save your money and get this one and not the blow model. The blow back model gives you half as many shots because you use co2 to make it blow back.

Try to shorten the trigger pull.

The really great part about buying this gun is Pyramid Air. I have bought several guns from them and have always had great sales people on the phone. You got questions they have the correct answers.

The authentic look, feel, weight, and appeal to any American who has ever admired the German Luger. I've wanted one my whole life and could never afford one. This is great. It even shoots adequately. My father served in Germany in World War II and brought back a German pistol.

For the price...nothing.

Spitfire over France. Bounced by 2 Me 109’s. Shot off tail, cannon round to engine. Bailed out in flames. Chute delayed. Came down in firefight with U.S. Army. Hid in brush row as German troops ran to battle. My only way was into enemy territory. Unarmed, stumbled on fallen German. Had Luger so took it. Walked forever. Came to rail line. Dimmed-out freight moving slowly in darkness. Checked pistol, jumped on. 2 engineers moving cars loaded with war stuff. Pushed Luger into their ribs. They jumped. Down tracks, kicked throttle and jumped. Train sped up. Heard voices, hid. French Resistance fighters. Blew up bridge over deep ravine. Entire train piled in, blew up. Spoke in bad French and they pulled weapons but saw British flight suit. 2 weeks later over the Pyrenees to Spain. 3 more weeks and back in jolly old England. Ready to go again and I’ll be carrying my Umarex Legends Luger. It’s a fine weapon, sir…the stuff daydreams are made of. Flt. Sgt. Fowler

needs a bigger air pipe so 12 shots is supreme power. I never targeted accuracy just fire into a box on other side of shipping trunk coffee table, chair holding a box is a big target beside desk and computer

I was impressed with the attention to detail on this pistol. It is true to the appearance of the real weapon. Thanks for your attention. Tony

Trigger pull is a bit heavy/hard

The weight and feel of the gun is fantastic. Though I really liked the idea of the blow back model, the waste of gas to operate the slide is just not worth it. Looking at the pistol it looks almost exactly like a non-working replica I own. The piercing screw is cleverly hidden at the base of the grip and is concealed by the base of the magazine. The magazine release works smoothly as does the safety..The magazine is easy to load because the BB follower locks open allowing you to drop BBs in one at a time. The magazine snaps into place with a satisfying "click" reminiscent of the sound of a magazine being inserted in a real pistol. The gun feels solid and well made. Seams are almost invisible. With my first CO2 cylinder in 45 degree weather, I got in excess of 180 shots! Accuracy is very respectable considering the pistol has fixed sights.

The trigger pull is exceptionally hard. It seems that the trigger is is working an internal mechanism to chamber a BB in addition to firing the pistol. As was stated in one of the video reviews, you can chamber the BB with a partial pull of the trigger then continue to pull the trigger to fire the pistol. It makes firing the pistol a little better but not by much. From a rest you find yourself using two fingers (one from each hand) to help steady the pistol. For the sake of realism the entire pistol is black. The problem with this is that the black front sight is almost invisible unless you are shooting at something against a light background. I think I'll add a touch of white paint to make it more visible.

I highly recommend the purchase of this pistol. So far it is my favorite CO2 pistol.

Full metal, great replica, warning markings are non obtrusive. Feels great in hand. Metal magazine and concealed c02 screw.

Nothing, it would be nice if the double action trigger was a bit lighter but it is what it is.

I bought this one became of all the reliability issues I have read about with the blowback version and I really wanted a p08. This shoots really well, accurate and I get a lot of shots per c02, at least 7 clips which are easy to load. Trigger is heavy but I rather a heavy trigger than a blowback model with reliability issues.

Nice and heavy, feels like the reel thing

Trigger pull is hard, very challenging.

Very accurate & has at least 150 shots per cylinder. Fun to shoot. Well worth the money.

Very well built, feels close to the real thing. Accurate for what I need, chasing squirrels of the bird feeder! Hits them every time!

The look & feel

Trigger pull feels like 10# I do not like like it . A deal breaker for me.

The overall quality and attention to detail is amazing at this price level. This pistol is 100% reliable, easy to use and has one of the best triggers I have ever used on a BB gun.

the only thing I would change would be to make the grip panels brown

Be prepared to be amazed at how many shots you get per cylinder. When I sit down with this pistol I get around 100 shots before I notice any drop off in power. Buy a few extra magazines.

The form and function

more power, or upgrade to .22 cal.

I wanted everyone to watch his demo video of this pistol. And at the end, he shows you how to "Weather" it. the finished product is amazing! This man is a real artist!

Realistic, Both looks and weight Very accurate and powerful for a BB pistol. I get 5 plus clips from a charge. That's over 100 shots.

The trigger , its bad. Double action that stacks and is inclined to hang up at the end. A steady pull seems to help.Aside from the trigger, its a very cool pistol.So cool the trigger did not take away from the overall rating.

Buy this pistol, I don't think you will regret it.

The heft and feel. I have always been fascinated by the Parabellum P08. This pistol is very authentic in size and weight. It's operation is smooth. With fixed sights; once sighted in it is very accurate. Expect at least 50 full power shots from the 12 g CO 2 cartridge. Shooting or on display an excellent choice.

This model is not blow back. It needs no changes.

The trigger action takes some getting used to. Once that is mastered; your target groups become very close.

I thought I would like this for the looks and mostly metal construction. The plastic screws that hold the grip handles on strip out easily and they should have built this for an extra dime and used metal screws. It's fairly accurate for a bb gun though and easy to load.

More metal.

Buy a Crosman 2240 for the same money and have a lot more fun.

Authentic feel and weight. Mag capacity(20), accuracy, power.

Directions in manual for loading air cartridge is confusing and incorrect.

Well worth the price. A fun gun.

Wow I new this gun was going to be a good buy from right out of the box the gun shot well I got between 80 to 90 shots pre co2 and I like the weight and the another good gun from pyramid air

not a thing

just try it you'll like it

I love this pistol!!! The feel is so real,it's like the real thing. Lots of shots per co2

Nothing at all.

Gun looks and works great. Feels good to shoot, and is accurate for a BB gun feeds perfectly. Lots of fun!

Hard to improve perfection.

You can't really go wrong with this gun. The price is fair, and I haven't found another CO2 BB gun I like better, and I own 15 air pistols. Buy it with confidence you will love it.

Heft, felt like the real thing. Good power....watch out Mickey mouse! Got lots of shots from a single CO2, over 100 before I started to feel the power drop off. It has fixed sights, but I got used to how it shot pretty quickly and then it was all over for those poor soda cans. Killed lots of 'em. Not particularly sensitive to bb's either, shoots about anything. Very cheap to shoot as a result. Fun to shoot and feels good in the hand. Good price too.

HEAVY trigger. Like _real_ heavy. What were these guys thinking? So heavy that it affects accuracy to some degree. Bummer! Slight improvement when you preset the trigger, but still heavy pull required. Would be nice not to have to use a screw driver to replace CO2's too, but I can live with it.

I originally bought the blow back model and liked nothing about it...except to look at and oohh and aaahhh about the so called a originality. Aside from that it _really_sucked up CO2 quickly, slow as hell too, I could see the BB's after about 25 shots from a fresh CO2, not very accurate, and not much range. Very sensitive to BB quality and still jammed. I like the Luger look and feel though so gave the blowback model away and bought this and am glad that I did. This non blow back model is a much better gun to shoot...by FAR. Be sure to get an extra clip.
