Things I liked:

Very well made. No failures yet. This gun is very well designed and is great to get familiar with the real thing.

Things I would have changed:

It is louder than I thought it would be

What others should know:

This is not an accurate pistol. The smooth bore bb's are nowhere close to a pellet in the accuracy department but it is fun to shoot.

Things I liked:

Not very much to like here. Too much plastic, terrible trigger, and safety. Poor quality in the fit and finish of the magazine makes it inoperable from a normally rested position. It did however have a crisp blowback action.

Things I would have changed:

My order to a different gun if I knew just how cheaply it would function.

What others should know:

This is nothing more than a glorified toy with good marketing. I was very disappointed in the overall gun.

    Ok i like the fact that its small But still feels like a real pistol.And another thing the blowback works exelent on this one.

    Things I would have changed:

    On its look and feel i wouldn't change a thing. But i would like to see it shoot both bb's and pelets.And a little more power would be nice.

    What others should know:

    Hey it really does fit in your pocket.And the co2 last pretty long.

    Things I liked:

    Size is nice, pretty small for an air gun. Blow back is cool.feels real, size and weight are just right. Power is just right for indoor and outdoor target shooting, knocks down tip targets and easily penetrates cardboard and soft targets. Don't forget your safety glasses when shooting the tip or metal targets. You will enjoy this little gun, it's lots of fun to shoot.

    Things I would have changed:

    The packaging, ditch the clam shell it's a night mare to open.

    What others should know:

    This little gun looks exactly like the real thing, be cautious where you display or carry it. Times are different than they used to be. Enjoy this little gun and shoot safely and don't forget those safety glasses.

    Things I liked:

    Well built. Small but quite comfortable to hold and to shoot. Very realistic looking and having almost the same weight as the real weapon. Built-in hex key for CO2. Good CO2 usage (100+ shots). The blowback is a bit mild but crisp. Smooth trigger. Even though the frame is plastic, it's very solid, good quality and looks and feels great. Metal slide adds to the realism as well. Magazine is metal, so it should last. All in all - it would be a great pistol, if it wasn't for the accuracy issue I had.

    Things I would have changed:

    My biggest problem with this gun was with accuracy. I ordered PPS and it was shooting 2.5 inches down and to the left from 15 feet. The grouping was great (10 shots within 1.5 inch consistently). I returned it and got another one. The second gun had similar problem. I'd love to have PPS but didn't want to go through another 2 weeks cycle, so ended up buying another gun at the end. With fixed sights the accuracy should be good and consistent out of the box. In my experience it was not. The manufacturer should have better QA to address this issue. Its not very practical to order several guns just to be able to select one that shoots as it should. If the rear sight was adjustable, I would have kept the pistol and definitely rated it with 5 stars.

    What others should know:

    For you Canadian buyers: PA is a great online store to buy from. With their prices and level of support, you can hardly find any better online source for air guns. The only thing to keep in mind is that they ship with UPS, so each order will have custom and brokerage fees, plus tax. This adds up some significant amount to the price. At checkout, you will see all expenses listed before you commit, so no surprises, which is great. I also had an issue with UPS Canada sending me extra bill for all these extra charges after delivery. I had to call them back and contact PA to have it sorted out.

    Things I liked:

    This is by far one of my top three favorite guns, and that's surprising because it cams in a completely undeserved plastic clamshell. The blowback is crisp and strong and the gun is a tad loud which I actually enjoy. The trigger is perfect. It measures out co2 quite efficiently and I rarely notice a drop in performance until the cartridge is nearly spent. It sits nicely in the hand for a compact and out performs many more popular guns. It'll run circles around its cousin the CP99 compact! Definitely buy this over that all day!

    Things I would have changed:

    Maybe offer a tricked out version with a nickel slide? Aside from that I got nothing.

    What others should know:

    The gun truly is compact and therefore has a really small picatinny rail. I dropped $50 on a truglo micro laser that not only fits perfectly but helps make this my most accurate and consistent BB pistol. You won't regret this purchase!

    Things I liked:

    I like the small size of the pistol. It is good looking and reasonably accurate up to about 20 feet. I can carry it in my cargo pants pocket with no problem at all. Very compact and just fun to have.

    Things I would have changed:

    I purchased two of these pistols at separate times, from Pyramid. The first one failed in numerous ways after about shooting 300 rounds. One of the small "hooks" that holds the sliding portion of pistol in place broke. The blowback then stopped functioning correctly. Pyramid is wonderful to deal with and offered to send me a replacement after I returned the broken on. I decided to keep the broken one and take it apart to see if I could fix it somehow (which ended up being impossible). I ordered a second one and received that a few days ago. So far so good. I am not a giant fan of CO2 pistols since I usually end up firing only a few rounds and end up wasting the rest of the charge by pulling out the CO2 at the end of the day. The overall rating stars function of this review window do not seem to work. I want to give this gun 3 stars for "overall", "value" and "accuracy".

    Things I liked:

    Everything - I use this as an "at-home" practice option for my small "summer carry" firearm... Save trips to the range, and is very realistic practice....

    Things I would have changed:

    I do wish it reproduced the slightly newer version of the PPS, which uses the more standard mag release button configuration...

    What others should know:

    Buy a pair of extra magazines, so you can load them and the included mag for a good practice session... This lets you just go into the garage, shoot close to 60 "rounds" downrange at the target, with no need to stop to reload BB's into the magazines - I find that a 3 magazine session is about right - you can shoot more than that on one CO2 cartridge, but it does fade after 3 magazines.....

    Rating 2.02.0 2.0

    Things I liked:

    Very nice compact pistol for practice on deep conceal and quick draw firing at close range. This is very close to the real Walther gun and looks convincing. The blowback is weaker than other pistols, but a nice feature for such a small and relatively quiet gun. Easy to load mags, three dot sight system. Shot count is good, I am geting 6-7 magazines before needing to change CO2.

    Things I would have changed:

    Mine shoots about 5 inches too low and 2 inches to the left at 20 feet, since the sights are non adjustable, this takes away from some of the fun. The blowback action may be too light, it only goes back about 1/4 of the way, watch your hands, the gun is small and you can get pinched or bang your knuckles.

    What others should know:

    Tried a variety of bb's. seems to like the larger more uniform Daisy Zinc Coated bb's. Hornady Black Diamond jammed in mine...

    Things I liked:

    For the money, hard to beat. Love the built-in hex key for co2 loading -- no chance of leaving it behind or losing it. New cartridge installment is precise with little gas loss vs. thumb screw mechanisms. Not sure how this is happening, but I'm getting 100-110 solid shots per cartridge -- an incredible amount for a blow-back. Reviewer that complained about "cheaply made" must've got a lemon. The amount of metal in this pistol gives it a sturdy, heavy feel and the attention to detail is exceptional. Clip is all metal and loads easily. Accuracy is very good at 20 feet (1.5" group w/ the typical 2-3 floaters), acceptable at 30 feet (about 3.5") and OK at 45 feet (about 8"). All in, a great little gun that's just plain fun to shoot.

    Things I would have changed:

    Always nice to have adjustable rear sights (like the S&W M&P 45, which is less expensive). Not a big fan of the in-trigger safety.

    What others should know:

    The blow back isn't alarmingly strong like on many guns -- which may account for the co2 efficiency -- but you definitely feel it. It may say so in the manual, but I use only zinc-plated steel BB's -- I learned a long time ago that extended use of copper BB's can cause problems. Finally, after learning the hard way w/ 2 other blow back autos, I never put the maximum amount of BB's in the mag (usually just 15) and this gun has been jam-free for 8 months. Just sayin'.

    Things I liked:

    Metal slide locks back after last shot. It's very efficient with CO2. White dots on sights. CO2 key is part of the back strap(very smart). Trigger is nice and it's easy to shoot. Only 4 star on accuracy, it's a compact bb pistol... it is more accurate than I expected though. Magazine seems very solid & well made. I'm impressed with this little pistol! Easy & fun to shoot. Buy extra magazines with it, don't wait.

    Things I would have changed:

    Adjustable sights maybe?

    What others should know:

    This thing looks just like the real pistol. I held them side by side & the white warning writing is the only way to tell them apart past about ten feet. It's a great little gun

    Things I liked:

    Quite a fine representation of the 'real deal'. Accurate in detail and I especially like the Co2 loading feature and the metal magazine, no problem with it being a stick type. I cannot comment on the accuracy because I have not shot it yet.

    Things I would have changed:

    The safety on this piece leaves a lot to be desired. The model this represents incorporates a trigger leaf 'drop' safety. This has a button on the trigger - push to the left and it's in live mode. If you're a right handed shooter this will work, however, if you're a south paw you'll be frustrated by your trigger finger engaging the safety.

    What others should know:

    If you're a lefty think twice before purchasing.

    This gun was a gift from a friend. I am highly impressed with Walther(Umarex) products they always amaze me! This gun is hard hittng for its fps at 15 feet! I've had pistol training and most engagements with a pistol is 10 to 15 feet! This gun is an true trainer, the accuracy is great for a BB gun! Why others expect firearm accuracy from BB guns surprises me!

    Things I would have changed:

    NOTHING!

    I'm a serious air gun collector and shooter, I have 33 air guns in my collection and 4 fire arms! This gun is in my top five favorite daily shooters! A must buy for the replica air gunner!

    Things I liked:

    The Size! I like this sub compact. Very close to the real thing. It has good weight and slender feel to it. Very good on Co2 (Around 100 solid shots). Not real heavy blow back but snappy! Accuracy is about as I imagined with this short of a barrel (roughly 2 inch groups at 10 yards).

    Things I would have changed:

    I am really getting spoiled with all-in-one magazines (Ammo and co2) but I realize there are design limitations for the price point and not everyone wants to use up multiple co2s when shooting.

    What others should know:

    This is one of my louder pistols... no doubt due to the short barrel.

    Things I liked:

    This Walther PPS replica is a nice addition to my collection. Weight feels good and balance is also good. My first shot with a fresh CO2 cartridge surprised me of the loudness. Thought my neighbors would complain. In general, this is a nice gun.

    Things I would have changed:

    Things I liked:

    -Size is near identical to the actual PPS. -Build quality seems like it will hold up. -Have shot a few hundred rounds and not had any issues.

    Things I would have changed:

    Compatibility with pellets.

    What others should know:

    This was my first CO2 semi automatic pistol. I purchased it because I was looking for an additional training aid for a Walther PPS, so the important factors to me may be different than someone just looking for a bb pistol. Unfortunately I can't compare to any other brands, but this seems like a well thought out pistol.

    Things I liked:

    Very well constructed and solid. Easy trigger pull. Has a nice blowback feature. The safety is very unique and practical, really like the idea of it being on the trigger. Magazine release works very easy too. Has a nice ballance and the 3 dot sights are great. With a steady hand and a good aim can get 2 inch groupings at around 20 feet. Like the idea that the magazine is made of metal. Great value for the money.

    Things I would have changed:

    Make the front and back portions of the grip have a rubberized texture. This would make the shooter feel as they would have more control over the handeling of the pistol.

    What others should know:

    Buy extra magazines when they become available. It is a fun little gun to shoot.
