Size, weight with nice blow back action.

Metal mag. ?

Looks great in my collection. Also this gun is a blast to shot. Love it.

Size and Sights

The location of the safety. The awful plastic packaging. The hex key for the pistol.

I purchased this pistol for my wife who has small hands. She needed a BB pistol that she could carry on her walks with our dogs in our rural neighborhood. We have had a problem with loss dogs attacking our leashed dogs. One dog has attacked her twice knocking her down. I purchased another model of BB pistol here from my use and have had good results with fending off these loose mutts. That pistol is too large for my wife's hands. The only thing I disliked about this pistol was the awful plastic packaging that takes an act of Congress to open. The hex key can be lost if it is not stored. The location of the safety is a problem. Needs to be elsewhere on the pistol.

Look, heft, and feel of a real Walther firearm. Delivery was fast.

I like the accurate size and weight (I also own an actual PPK/S firearm in .380 cal). My new airgun functions perfectly, and I'm very happy with it. At first I wasn't sure about a rattling in the gun when I took it out of the packaging, but it turns out it was only the CO2 piercing key stored in the grip. Great place to keep it, actually, so it doesn't get lost.

Metal mags (instead of plastic) would have been nice, but not a big deal. Also, a hold-open catch for the magazine follower would help, but again, not a big deal. A thumbnail holding it down while filling the mag works just fine.

I had a chance (unfortunately) to test Pyramid's customer service with this order. They passed with flying colors. My original order included 2 additional mags for a different airgun I already owned. When the order arrived, only 1 of the ordered mags was included. Elise(?), from customer service, took my call, immediately sent out 2 mags to correct my delivery, and they arrived at my house 3 days later. Count me as a satisfied customer. Oh! When racking the slide when the gun is empty, drop the mag in order for the slide to return fully to battery. This was not covered at all in the instructions, and it hung me up temporarily until I figured it out.

This is an awesome replica! Size, weight and feel are so close to the real .380

It would be so much better if the safety was in the same location as the firearm: on the left side of the slide. The existing safety works, but is in the wrong place and the wrong side

I love how it feels and the blowback feels really nice compared to other guns

Change the magazine, after about 10 reloads my magazine split through the middle but I was able to repair it with a push pin and job weld. MAKE IT CO2 FRIENDLY, I have had this gun for about a week and it gets about 2 to 3 magazines till it starts to not cycle. And make it double action, it will help that problem

It wastes co2 quickly, 2-3 magazines till it starts to fail a cycle and buy extra magazine or try to reinforce it before shooting so it would stay intact

Good self defence pistol

Color size

Buy the ppks

Very close to the real PPK/S excellent for close range quick response practice. Remarkable for the price. Fast professional delivery!

BB magazine could be a little more substantial.

I got the same handgun that shoots real bullets. It is much cheaper to practice with the BB gun rather than the real one. They are almost identical in weight so it makes it easier. It is helping me shoot better with the real one as I get used to the sights and pulling the trigger.

None

Exceptional value for the money

Excelente pistola la recomiendo

Good little gun to play with

Make the magazine out of metal

Order an extra mag maybe, mine split down the middle over the years from spring tension and use. Tried fixing it but it wouldnt hold. Other than that its a really cool little gun and good quality just like all of Umarex products.

great gun it very like the real

I like the feel of the gun and looks. All metal except for the grips. Makes me feel like James Bond.

I would rather see a full metal magazine instead of the plastic stick one it comes with. Not very easy to load BB's If you don't load correctly they can come out the other side of the mag when dropping in. Would be nice if you could purchase one in silver or chrome finish and be able to change out different grips. Don't like the packaging that it came in. Plastic blister pack. I would rather have seen nice box.

Make sure you get this gun with 2 extra magazine clips for faster reloads

I like the weight and action.

Needs to have sights illuminated.

I intend to illuminated the sight with three dots.

Looks and feels like the real thing. Makes me feel like 007.

- Accuracy is GARBAGE. I normally shoot 4" targets at about 10 yards, which I can hit about 65% of the time with my Umerex and Glock, but this one I'll be lucky if I can hit it 10% of the time. At 5 yards I have no problem, but anything more than that it's all over the place. Might just be the short barrel though. - Slide is not smooth, I had to oil it up a lot before the blow back wasn't dragging.

Looks cool if you like to collect, very realistic if you have a real one and you want to practice concealed carry draws, but it's a lousy plinker.

2 of these pistols in a row, new: blowback cracked the casing of the entire metal slide-back! Damage big and beyond repair. Strengthen the alloy a bit!

Look, feel, weight, trigger, mechanism, "hidden" CO2, CO2 efficiency.

Add the little red line on the back sight like a real PPK /S has. Make the safety function instead of the faux safety on one side and the actual safety on the other.

We have a chronograph and tried several BB's including Crosman, Daisy Silver and Hornady. The best velocity is with the Crosman BB's but it is less than the specified velocity. Nonetheless, the pistol is fun to shoot. We used a whole 500 round container of BB's and had perfect functioning. Buy extra magazines! If you shoot very fast the velocity drops and sometimes the blow-back gets sluggish. Accuracy at 10-yards is reasonable for the sights, barrel length and design. We are getting 2.5" groups with careful single action shooting.

Almost exactly like the PPK/S real version. Excellent trainer to help new shooters get used to shooting a semi-automatic handgun.

Add Double Action like the real thing. Magazines are a bit difficult to load one BB at a time.

Slide cycles a bit shorter than the real thing.

appearance and feel

Reliability very poor, bought two 8/3/2018...first gun, the seal went out and would discharge all the Co2 out the barrel. 2nd gun actually fell apart while firing--the slide mechanism came off the gun...would pay more to have something that is reliable --Basically you have a $62.00 piece of junk--glade I kept both receipts returning them today

Don't waste your money unless, your ready to write a negative paragraph on why you should not buy this BB Pistol...if you do buy one, keep your receipt, I promise you will need it--200 rounds and she's done !!!!!!

Great gun! Very much like my PPKs 22cal. I can get 1.75" groups at 18' with match grade BB's and I'm not a great shot. Also, I like the design of the clip, but not the fact that the clip is plastic.

The plastic clip was a real disappointment. Given the construction of the clip, I wish they had included an extra. I wish it had better velocity.

It gets good milage out of each CO2 cartridge. I did not really count, but I think I got over 75 shots per C02 cartridge. It is more demanding to shoot well than a lot of BB guns, but if you really work at it, the gun is capable of surprisingly good groups at 15 to 20'.
