Legends Makarov Reviews

Quality

Nothing

Nice

fast shipping and price.

Nothing.

Fun factor, multiple magazines on each cartridge, blow back operation, weight and feel

Magazine and release are flimsy. I would pay more for a better magazine system, fixed sights were off (high left).

Well worth the price point. Just a blast to shoot and you will need extra BBs.

The attention to detail is very good. Has a nice feel. It's accurate as long as you keep the distance realistic. My son can get close to 90- 100 shots on one co2 cartridge.

Nothing I would change about the pistol.

For the price you can't beat it.

I like how simple the firing mechanism is, the construction quality along with the realism, and it's all metal! nice..

I wish it stopped firing after 18 shots, but counting works that out, you just lose gas on empty shots otherwise..

Buy lots of bbs and co2 cartridges, because it's so fun to shoot you'll have trouble putting it down :D

very well made and the weight is spot on.. action is smooth right out of the box with a tight grouping. Good buy.

Nothing

Small and very easy to use. Excellent accuracy in sing;e and double action. It is just plain fun to shoot

nothing

You will go through a lot of BB's

This is one of my favorites. Small and easy to shoot using both single and double action. It is very accurate ant a pleasure to shoot. There is not a blow back feature but foe me that was OK. However, you can cock it like a blow back pistol. Buy one and enjoy it.

Accurate, powerful , functions great !!

Nothing

Fun plinking at cans or splatterburst targets !

What a great replication piece. Accurate in the overall looks of the real Makarov, and in shot accuracy. Highly recommended.

Nothing. Take my money

You won't be disappointed.

It's a clone of a real firearm.

Make it a blow back.

Poor clone in my opinion. Doesn't blow back and plastic feel.

Construction is mostly metal, so has a solid feel. Accuracy is sufficient to hit pop cans at 25 feet or so if you do your part. Will fire single or double action. However, since the slide does not cycle when fired it is necessary to thumb-cock the hammer for every shot if you want to shoot single action. Or, just pull the trigger for each shot as in normal double action.The trigger pull quality is OK but not real smooth. It actually works pretty well double action for hitting cans. The magazine has a locked position on the magazine follower so you can load the BB's without continually holding the follower down against spring pressure. This is a nice feature. The sights were right on for windage but it does shoot a little high. If you aim at the bottom of a can you will hit the top, at least for me at 25 feet. So the sights are usable. I am getting about 70 shots per CO2 cartridge. Feeding with Umarex BB's is pretty good. Have not had any jams so far in about 300 shots.

The thumb screw which you turn to pierce the CO2 cartridge is made of plastic, one of very few non-metal parts. I am hopeful that this plastic thumbscrew will last. Would feel better if it was metal.

I feel that this pistol is well worth the $60 price. The pistol comes in a box with attractive graphics. It is a good place to store the pistol, as opposed to guns coming in that miserable plastic clamshell which is difficult to open and gives you no place to store the gun. I have not chronographed it yet but it penetrates both sides of an aluminum can at 25 feet or so, so no ricochets. However, always wear eye protection! I describe the sound level as moderate.

Nice heft, solid action, feels good in the hand.

Jams ALL THE TIME! Cannot get through a single magazine without multiple BBs jamming in the barrel. This is a terrible pistol.

This is a very fun little gun.

Nothing

Some heavier bbs get stuck in the mags

Super magnifica pistola...para entretenerse y tiro al blanco.

Realistic feel and weight. Lots of fun and plenty accurate for kicking cans around at 7-10 yds.

The sights are horrible. Narrow and shallow. The gun shoot 3" high at about 10yds. It would be nice to know if there are replacement sights or other easy fix.

Except for the sights, the gun is a bargain and lots of fun.

Very accurate replica. Shoots great with good grouping and right on target.

Slider is a bit sloppy, not that it affects anything, as it carries no functionality ( NBB) other than cocking, if you wish to do so. But it's sloppiness is due to not good enough internal engineering. Slide does not go back too much, so when you field strip it you need a bigger angle to take the slider out and to achieve that you need a bigger hole in a slider. Not relevant anyway for the price point.

This gun is very accurate. Shot from 7 meters and got a great grouping ( within a quarter size) and all in black dot area ( also about quarter size). For example, I also have Makarov from KWC, blowback version, beautiful and super realistic, but it shoots more than 2 inches lower and a little to the side, and it's ridiculous, I have to file the sights now to make it more less comparable. The same thing with my Beretta 92, shoots even worse and costs more than twice as much. So all in all, great little pistol, I got 2 more mags, that are super easy to load, shot about 500 rounds from one of them and all good with no malfunction. I'm using Hornady Black Diamond BB. I noticed that somehow cheaper pistols tend to be more accurate - this Makarov, Walther PPK, Ace in the hole ( only 4 in barrel), Remington 1911 that I got on sale for $69, they all shoot better than even my $300 made in Germany Beretta...Go figure.

Great small and easy to handle pistol. Similar to actual weapon

Not an easy trigger to pull, but once use to it , no problem

Not the easiest. To insert the Co2 cartridge

I like the overall quality and value for the money. Also, the functional slide is a good feature, especially for training. The power level is higher than the PPK I bought (but I really like both guns). At the range, the accuracy was quite good, with a bull's-eye target at eight to ten yards.

Not much, maybe make the stock (grips) look a little more like wood.

Overall, it is a really good value for the money and a lot of fun to shoot.
