Page 3 - Legends P08 Blowback Reviews

FUN!! The overall look and feel is very realistic. It gets about 50 shots per CO2 cartridge, so not too bad for a blowback design. My M1 carbine only gets about 40. Shooting from the hip at 15 ft. is a blast. At longer ranges accuracy is a bit random, but still good enough to be fun.

Nothing.

Get a spare magazine. One just isn't enough. The mags take a little breaking in to work smoothly but they do break in.

Look, feel, function. This pistol is amazing.

In effluent change anything. It is a gas guzzler, but no doubt the action is the reason. But to change the action would decrease the realism. I've shot the real gun and this is spot on.

You'll be using lots of gas. But you'll love it.

I have a collection of real Lugers, it is an almost exact replica. If you want to have an expensive metal replica, go ahead, if you expect having fun shooting it....NO

Internal design, trigger mechanism and magazine

I purchased two, one leaks out of new box the other quit working after a few cartridges with inoperative trigger, Been 3 weeks Pyramid Air got my new and broken Luger and still have not shipped, item is in stock....March/April 2020

Not a Luger guy, while all of my air pistol and rifle collection each pattern and reflect the exact opposing rimfire of that other side of the collection, this is the only one that exists solely on its own merit because I have no desire to own a rimfire luger but have just the same always in the back of the darkest regions of my mind missed having one in the collection, and so without the extreme expense of paying for a real rimfire Luger that isn't necessarily a fantasy of mine, I can still have my cake here and eat it too.

Nothing. It's virtually near perfect in every which way as it is.

Not that I can think of. My review is for those that are looking for some fun and realism without nitpicking the entire scenario apart. There is nothing particularly wrong with nitpick and I'm NOT knocking it. We've all been there and have had our own personal reasons for it, whether it was right, wrong or indifferent, but nonetheless, it was what it was in life and now not currently mine to judge. I have nothing against detailed examinations. But my purchase for this particular item fits the bill for MY needs and it is in that spirit that I mention it is geared for those having similar attitudes as mine and nothing more. Don't read into it. Sometimes a cake is just a cake and that's it.

Real in all respects: to think it's a BB gun.

Nothing - works well.

Get one!!

I'm not a big fan of german guns and i held off on buying this one for a long time. But finally i did and i must say it is very impressive in weight and finish. I must add that the first one i received and had the 10 for 10 test only worked for three magazines and then started to jam with an extra bb jamming the gun each time. i send it back and Pyramyd Air took care of replacing it quickly. They sent me a new one with another 10 for 10 test done and it has worked beautifully so far. It is very accurate but i have not had time to try different BB's in the gun although i find the black BB's to be the best to use on all of my BB guns.

Nothing i can think of

Nothing i can think of

Appearance, well done, I have the real and original luger and side by side they are identical

Use wood grips, the plastic feelings got 2 stars down

Leaking gas out of the box, small leak so if you shot out the gas cartridge until the end every time should not be a big concern, but still...brand new out of the box should not be leaking.

Videos indicate that "minute of (tin) can" accuracy is to be expected, so not disappointed. Solid action,good balance,

I put off buying this pistol for a long long time but i finally decided to go for it. It is an impressive piece of equipment and its as close to the original that i think you could get. My first one developed a problem with feeding the BB's after two sessions but i sent it back to Pyramyd Air and they got me out another one. They even sent me the return fed ex or ups label. I have shot the new one since and all seems well.

Can't think of any thing.

Just make sure you put a few mags thru it once you receive it in case a similar problem to mine pops up. My first one worked fine until the third session and then two BB's would try and feed at the same time and it would lock it up each time. Pyramyd air is the best and they took care of my issues pronto!

Performs like the real thing. Good weight to it. Very accurate at 25 feet.

The real p o 8 is pretty expensive, and this one for the money you will love.

It is fun. It looks cool, and the blowback is satisfying. The magazine is relatively easy to load compared to other co2 airguns, and it's nice that it holds 21 bb's. The mechanisms appeared to be well lubricated out of the box.

Maybe I'm still just getting used to it, but it seems to be poorly sighted compared to my other co2 airguns. I wish it was adjustable. It also goes through co2 very quickly despite being fairly low velocity; price of the P08 blowback action I guess.

The gun didn't come with much, just the magazine and an Allen wrench. It's not as satisfying as my blowback 1911, but it's still fun and I like having both for the historic novelty.

Looks good, well made and still in box. Will not shoot, I just collect.

nothing

Good bargain.

Made of metal

A gift for brother

Realistic appearance and operation.

A little more power.

Fun to shoot, realistic operation and field strips like a real pistol. Blow back function works great and makes the pistol satisfying to shoot , but the single CO2 cartridge gets used up pretty quickly. I'm averaging two and a half mags per cartridge. The balance of the pistol is perfect ( like the real thing) and it's nice enough to use as a display piece.

The detail of this shooter is excellent. The ease of operation and blowback design are excellent. Accuracy is very good at twenty feet. The gun was powerful enough to knock down all twelve steel targets. Overall an excellent gun and value!

Make the grips walnut checkered and include something to assist with loading the magazine.

Have fun!

Realistic handling. Simply fun to shoot. Your friends will be amazed.

Nothing. A fun plinker.

Remember this is a smoothbore. Don't expect rifled accuracy

Solid and very well built. Exact replica.

Nothing.

Good value. Very accurate.

Looks nice and has a nice weight to it

magazine mechanism

I had to sens mine back 3 time it is broken again and I am done with it

Looks and feels like a real P08, blowback is very realistic. Is pretty accurate and can be field stripped to a point. It's a solid 99% metal pistol. Take care of it and you'll enjoy it for years!

Change color of hand grips to brown (wood if possible). I would place the inner barrel back about 1/4".

As usual extra clips are very handy, almost a must! Take care of it lubricate your CO2 cartridges and get a few cartridges with self contained lubricant.

This is a well made replica of the original Luger pistol. I like the fact that it has the folding, functioning knuckle like the original Luger. It feels good in the hand and is surprisingly accurate.

The only things I would change are having wood grips instead of the plastic ones that are on it, or change the design of the grip mount so reproduction wood grips could be installed. I attempted to install a reproduction set of grips I have but due to the attachment style of the plastic grips it is not possible. I would like to see possibly a little more velocity of the BB from the pistol.

This is a well made and accurate BB pistol. If you like Luger's or the Luger design you can't go wrong with one of these.
