Things I liked:Has the capability to shoot 1.5" groups at 30 feet Things I would have changed:Flex & wiggle on the handgrips. Drops the first bb out of the barrel about half the time. Hammer cocks hard sometimes. What others should know:All three of the Makarovs I purchased recently pull to the right - two to four inches

The Umarex people were no help, they promptly retuned it to me without a word. Be prepared widen the rear sight blade a fabricate an overblade if you want this thing to shoot straight.

Things I liked:Weight and feel of a real firearm. Takedown and operation is similar to the real Makarov. It is a pleaure to shoot and practice with. Metal construction is solid (even the mag!). Things I would have changed:Other than making it a blowback gun, little else. The grip is a little sloppy and is plastic; that's my

Metal construction is solid (even the mag!). Things I would have changed:Other than making it a blowback gun, little else. The grip is a little sloppy and is plastic; that's my only detractor. What others should know:The DA trigger pull is a little spongy and the SA pull is noticeably more crisp. The gun shoots better than the shooter. It's efficient with the CO2 and is an all-around fun repeater. Since it mimicks the real firearm closely in many aspects this will serve a good trainer for me and my family.

Things I liked:I*ve shot BB guns all my life. But this is the first co2 pistol. I love it. Shot 9 holes in my bathroom door the first night. Pretty accurate little bugger also. Very similar to the Russian made Makarov. They done good for the price. And the steel feel, feels good in your hand. Nice finish, but the hand grips need work. Things

Things I would have changed:Made stronger, tighter grips. What others should know:Buy one for yourself, they are great.

Things I liked:Looks great. Packaging is excellent. Things I would have changed: What others should know:Out of the box, would not hold gas. Unshootable.

Things I liked:The build of this pistol is incredilble. I have found it to be very accurate. The price overall is a bargain. Things I would have changed:The grips are a bit loose. Some aluminum tape placed at top and bottom of both sides fixed this problem easily. What others should know:This is by far the best BB pistol

Some aluminum tape placed at top and bottom of both sides fixed this problem easily. What others should know:This is by far the best BB pistol I have purchased so far. I was not expecting it to be accurate. From 25ft I shot consistant nickel size groups which for a smooth bore short barrel BB pistol is fantastic. I honestly can't figure out why it is so low priced.

Things I liked:Very realistic little gun. Very good weight, feels comfortable in the hand. After getting used to the sight I found it very accurate Things I would have changed:The plastic handle that slides open to load the CO2 could be a lot more sturdy. I found it to be adequate but would had been nicer if it had a little more weight

I found it to be adequate but would had been nicer if it had a little more weight so it does not slide during firing. I found the mag a little awkward to load What others should know:Would like to have the option of a second mag. Overall a great little gun well worth the price

Things I liked:Very accurate at 10 to 15 feet. Quite a loud report (sound on full CO2 cylinder) though there is very little recoil if you can hold the gun steady. Weight of a real firearm.
Full metal, replica of original Makarov. It has an option to cock it using the movable slide and fires like an auto. Drop down magazine is also made of metal

Full metal, replica of original Makarov. It has an option to cock it using the movable slide and fires like an auto. Drop down magazine is also made of metal. Things I would have changed:Wood grips instead of plastic ones. Slide should eject a chambered BB and ejection hole should allow a single pellet to be loaded (dual ammo). What others should know:Use a rubber band over the plastic grips as that does get a little loose with time (mine is still quite new) and a shaky grip may result in poor accuracy.
You can empty the 18 bb magazine in seconds through single action rapid fire but if you wait a second or two between each shot under normal conditions you will get max power with CO2.

Things I liked:Like the look and feel, have reviewed this two months ago, and have shot it heavily. It still performs great! I agree with lonewolf051, the grip has serious issues, in fact mine came off the frame easily when I was reloading the CO2!Still, the amount of gun you get for the price is amazing...and it feels so much like the real gun

Things I would have changed:The grips What others should know:What a great value

Things I liked:All metal construction, solid feel. At 25 feet very accurate. Things I would have changed:Chambered for 177 pellets?? What others should know:I am not a pistol shooter, let alone a BB gunner. This is my first BB gun, got alot of pellet rifles. I was amazed at the accuracy and consistency. I can hit

What others should know:I am not a pistol shooter, let alone a BB gunner. This is my first BB gun, got alot of pellet rifles. I was amazed at the accuracy and consistency. I can hit everything I pointed to at 25 plus feet. I bought this pistol on a whim to round out my collection. The ratings were very high for this item, so I took a chance and bought it. I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I have no gripes with this pistol. Excellent value for the money. Treat yourself, buy one
