Page 8 - Legends P08 Blowback Reviews

This gun shoots great and feels great. Compared to my 1911 this gun fits into your hand like a glove. The accuracy is also deadly at 25 feet i get groupings the size of a tennis ball. The mechanics are also very smooth. Its cool to watch the trade mark slide pop up in your field of vision every time you squeeze the trigger and it give a good kick for recoil.

The gun mark stampings are on the bottom of the barrel which seems a bit weird but i'm no expert.

you can only get two magazines out of a co2 cartridge but the blow back effect is definitely worth it.

The pistol is quite authentic-looking. It has good heft, feels good in your hand. The action works like the original firearm. The magazine loads easily. Workmanship is first-rate. This is a fun gun for an outing with friends.

The gun shoots very low at 5 yards. I mean by 3 inches! This even with a fresh powerlet. Accuracy? About 2 inches at five yards.

Don't plink at tin cans with this gun. You will get bounce-back. Now aluminum cans are a different story....just elevate the front sight waaaaaay up there and you will hit your target. If you are an airgun collector-shooter like me, with over ten airguns, you NEED this gun. It's too much fun!

Nice feel and quality craftsmanship

A way to adjust the rear site

Very realistic

ACCURATE,BLOWBACK ACTION

PLASTIC GRIPS

BROKE AFTER 6 CLIPS.

Blowback action, tru-to-life replica design. Almost exact to my real P-08 in appearance & weight.

Nothing

N/a

Looks and feels like the real thing no plastic all steel

It does use a lot of co2 due to the blowback buts its a ball to shoot and pretty acurate. I'll just buy more co2's

Nice size & weight; feels like a real P08. I've only shot two mags thru it, as it's really been windy & raining a lot since I got it, but I look forward to many fun hours as soon as it clears! I have not been able to evaluate accuracy yet, so that remains unknown. My prior experience with the reciprocating PPK BB gun was a real disappointment----couldn't get 10 BBs in the same 4" target at 10 paces, so I hope this gun gives me better results! (PS--I am an avid "Bullseye" match shooter; I usually "win" at much greater ranges with live ammo!)

Wood grips would be a nice upgrade, and I'd be willing to pay a little more for them!

The BBs are a PITA to load, but not sure what else could be done. I am hoping for at least 2" accuracy at 30'! Does anyone know......does it make a significant difference if one uses the more expensive Gamo BBs vs. standard copper?

Very nicely done ,has real pistol look and feel. This one was a gift for my son

Optional wood look grips, a little more fps. Optional longer barrel version

About as good as it gets

This is a fun gun to add to your collection. Like the fact that it stops the toggle when your out of shots like a real gun.

Not much. It does eat CO2 carts pretty fast. and tends to freeze up and drop pressure with rapid fire.

First one I got jammed a BB and trigger got stuck. Pyramyd was real good about exchange, and 2nd has had no trouble.

The look, feel, and operation are authentic. The bolt locks open when the clip is empty just like the real firearm. The blowback action creates a near-realistic recoil. The tear-down is done like the original but does not go as far. Is fairly accurate at 15 - 20 feet.

Nothing. This is an awesome reproduction!

You will only get two clips of BBs down range per 12g CO2 cartridge. You will want an extra clip to reduce breaks in your shooting action. Loading the BBs into the clip is a bit tedious - but nearly every clip-fed BB pistol I have used / owned is the same. Buy a lot of 12g CO2 cartridges and BBs and have fun with this one!

Accuracy of detail compared to original.

Maybe have a model that shoots pellets as an option???

If you are a Luger lover this thing feels & looks like the real one.

Looks and feels like a real Luger. Toggle action is great. Appears to be well designed/made. Seems to be a good value and lots of fun for the price.

Wood (or at least sturdier plastic) grips. Not a major issue, but it's the only fault I have with this C02 pistol.

You'll only get 2 mags thru it with a C02 cartridge, and even then the last few shots are noticeably lower velocity. That's the trade-off for the cool toggle action. Same so-so sights as the real Luger, though the trigger is actually better than the real Luger. I'm so impressed with this C02 pistol that I intend to order this company's full-auto Broomhandle Mauser from Pyramyd in the very near future.

Great looking and operates like a real Luger. The blowback operation in fantastic. I set up a target across my office and shoot from my desk when I need a diversion

Like most others a set of wood grps would have been terrific

I had some sort of jam going into my second CO2 cylinder. The toggle failed to operate properly and then the charge emptied. I am quie good with guns but could not figure this out! I contacted Pyramyd they simply took it back and a new one is on it,s way! Too nice a piece not to own one.

Realistic, feels good in your hand, and a lot of fun to shoot.

Nothing

Uses a lot of Co2 cartrages, buy them in bulk. They are really cheap when you consider the number of shots you get versus the price of just 1 high powered rifle cartridge. Everyone will want to shoot it.

Realism, weight, outstanding accuracy, my favorite.

nothing

Little tricky at first, use an allen wrench at bottom of magazine to install co2 cart.

this pistol is awesome! Feels like the real thing, shoots great. I love it

Nothing

Very nice realistic copy of the actual pistol. Lots of fun to shoot. Pretty accurate, holds 2 inch groupings well at 30 to 40 feet. Great balance and feel in the hand. Trigger pull is very easy. Blowback is nice and crisp. Really like that it is metal constructed and very little plastic if any {grips}. Magazine is easy to load co2 and bb's.

Knurling on the toggle pull could be a little deeper.

You wont regret buying it. Very nice gun to shoot and collect if you are into collecting replicas. I recommend buying the extra magazine.

Very realistic.Blow back makes it feel like the real thing.

Sights are hard to see,had to paint mine.

After 2 cylinders the pistol has begun to auto fire.Did not get to shot it enough to find out how accurate it is.As I live in Canada I suspect the warranty process would be cost prohibitive however it makes a beutiful wall hanger.

authentic look and feel.

nothing.

the gun i have is a little more tempermental than the other guns of this type that i have , but from my experience it will probably preform better when it is broken in.

I first starter with the Legends P08 non-blowback pistol,then I find the blowback so I exchange the gun through Pyramyd Air(great company)I found this gun to be the best in my collection,shoot straight with a nice blowback action.Fit and finish absolute A plus at this low price.

nothing

This is a great replica and if you have the Tanfoglio Witness 1911 two super guns from WW1.I'm going to display them together.Buy this gun before they are out of them or the price go up!!PS I have a banner from a balloon squadron from 1917,I think I will use it as a background?
