Page 6 - Legends M712 Full-Auto Reviews

The gun is very much realistic and fun to shoot. The automatic mode is awesome! A must have for every WWII era pistols collector.

This gun is amazing: Umarex does it again. You would almost need to place it alongside a genuine Mauser to see the differences. It performs exceptionally well on a fairly small amount of gas.

Nothing.

Have plenty of CO2 and BB's on hand. You won't regret it.

I'm a replica nut, so I dug this gun from its introduction. In this respect it fits the bill perfectly. A beauty to behold, handle and fire.I also like its size and heft. It is formidable in both respects. By no means a "lightweight".

Nothing, love it as it is.

Be mindful there is a bit of a leaning curve associated with holding, aiming, and firing. Since this is a early 20th century weapon replica, you have to rely on the "Old School" format of aiming, holding etc. to effectively master the use of this pistol. This is all the more the case when in full auto mode. It's like what I learnt in basic- good firm grip but don't choke the gun and be ready for a 'pull up' and 'shifting off' to right or left depending on your being either right or left handed. Finally, keep in mind this is called the "Broom Handle" for a good reason. The 'roundness' of the grip can require a little getting used to.

This thing is great. It looks and feels real and seems reasonably well built. Shooting it full auto is really a hoot. It's not very accurate, but hey, who cares? It's a full auto BB gun reproduction of a broomhandle mauser schnellfeuer. Want great accuracy? Get a target gun. Some have complained about the cost of the mags, but the gas release mechanism is built into the mag. I can see why they cost more. Also, if the mechanism malfunctions after warranty expiration, the pistol doesn't become a paperweight; just get another mag.

The barrel attachment is a bit wobbly.

This gun is really different from any other. its built well except for the barrel coming loose a little. I like the feel,and the looks

On this gun I would change the outer barrel so it would not come loose.

This gun makes a great item for anyone's collection, but keep an eye on that set screw that tightens the outer barrel.

Very authentic and realistic representation of the actual pistol. Full auto is the only way to go. Will use a lot of Co2 cartridges. But you will have fun using them up.

Needs adapter for external Co2 tank and a magazine that holds like at least 100 rounds.

The gun is heavy but this is a good representation of the actual pistol. I'm still watching and waiting for the barrel set screw to come loose that other reviews have mentioned. When it does it will get a drop of red loctite.

What a kick to shoot. If you ever wanted a bolo mauser, this is a great susbstitute.

The barrel housing is secured by a small set screw that tends to shake loose under firing. The barrel housing starts to move and that destroys accuracy. The set screw situation should be addressed by Umarex.

The set screw situation notwithstanding, this gun is huge amounts of fun. The full auto is extremely fast. Stock up on CO2 as you will dump a cartridge about every two mags of BB's.

The construction/materials/fit are top quality for this price point. Looks great and certainly lots of fun to shoot

It would be nice if it would detect the magazine "empty" and quit firing before trigger release....especially on full auto.

excellent replica of the original weapon. full auto is pretty cool

reduce the mag cost. its a third the cost of the gun

Heft, all metal, realism, fun factor ++

Windage control

Stock up on CO2

Well built, nice quality Fun to shoot. Accuracy is just ok but after all it is a smooth barrel gun. Heavy gun hard to find a way to hold it,but I'am sure the original was to. Beauty full gun, I'am going to hang it and my P08 blowback on the wall. I get 50-60 shots per c02, not bad for a blowback. Great Gun!!

Some one needs to make a shoulder stock that would fit, it would make it easier to shoot, looks like the mounting slot is all ready there. Loading the gun can be a pain in the arse. Speed loader???

This gun is fun to shoot, but if you plan on shooting full auto, plan on most of your time loading the magazine. Stock up on C02 and BBs you'll need both

This gun is a blast to shoot. I use it indoors and it is pretty loud. Love the blow back on this pistol. Feels heavy and I love the clips.

The barrel is lose and held together with a tiny screw. Not sure who made that call. I am going to try a small black hose clamp on it to see if it helps.

This gun shots high even with the sights adjusted to the max. if you are looking for accuracy this gun is not it. If you are looking for a full auto bb gun that is fun to shoot and turns heads then you need to get this.

It's a blast! Really for with my boys. Very heavy. Feels like the real deal. You won't be disappointed.

Usual stuff with any full auto C02 gun...goes through the C02. So long as you go in with proper expectations you won't be disappointed. Shoots really low as well even with the sites all the way down

After a few hundred rounds through out gun the magazine would not stay in. There was an issue with the mechanism that holds. No sweat though. Contacted Pyramid, they replied within 24 hours and I exchanged it for another. Very good service!

Realism, function, reliability, accuracy, and C02 consumption(semi-auto), are all above average with my experience with the gun I purchased. Fit and finish is average (see 'things I would change').

Blowback bolt, or whatever it's called, does not stay open at the end of the last shot. This is a very helpful feature to have so that the shooter can easily identify when the weapon is empty. The barrel is not one solid piece, but is connected with a small screw that easily comes loose. It's a bit of a headache and I wish that a solid piece would have been incorporated instead. Gun is grooved to accept a shoulder stock at the back of the grip. A shoulder stock would put this gun over the top! But, none are available, at least not in this country.

My gun shoots in full auto although I have it set for semi-auto when the C02 begins to run out. Not a big deal, but it did jolt me because I wasn't expecting it to do that. I'll have to try to remember that this gun functions this way to keep from losing my concentration. Overall, If you want to own a small piece, though a replica, of firearms history, add this gun to your collection. It is a hoot to shoot!

the looks an weight look like a real C-96

THE SCREW UNER THE BARRELKEEPS COMMING LOOSE AN THE BARREL FLOPS UP AN OWNWAY TO MANY TIMES. I WISH YOU WOUL COME OUT WITH THE DETACHABLE STOCK TO GO INTO THE BUT GROOVE, MAKE IT LOOK BITCHEN DEVELOPE A TUBE MAKING THE LOADING OF THE BB'S EASIER SPEN MORE TIME LOAING THAN SHOOTING.

SEE IF YOU CAN REDUCE THE MAGAZINE PRICE SO YOU CAN SELL MORE AND MAKE IT AFFORABLE TO THE POOR GUY. I WOUL BUY AT LEAST 10 MAGS IF THE PRICE WAS MORE WHERE I COULD AFFORD THEM. $40 IS A BIT STEEP FOR A BB GUN

Solid, heavy, and impressive looking replica. Auto is as much fun as you think, and all in all a must for the replica fans.

1. Stronger pistol grip ring - the cheap key-ring wire is very out of place on this otherwise outstanding product. 2. Add a 4-6 shot burst option. 3. Change the color to black.

Buy one. And like the video says, buy a LOT of ammo and gas!

I have wanted on of these for a long time and now I have one.

The gun shoots too high so the ladder rear sight is not much use but it makes the gun look real. Maybe an attachable shoulder stock would be nice.

What's not to like! This pistol is just WAY TO MUCH FUN! The quality of materials gives it a hefty and realistic feel. The fit,finish and workmanship are also top notch. If you are worried that you will be disappointed, DON'T BE!!!

The one thing that could use a touch of work would be to make it a little more efficient with the CO2. It does go through the gas. But, given the nature of CO2 when used in the manner this pistol does, it's likely the only thing to be done is get used to the consumption.

Be sure to get extra magazines, use precision BB's, stock up on CO2 cartridges, and most important; GET AN UMAREX STEEL BB UNIVERSAL LOADER!

FUN! SUPER FUN! When it worked...

Magazine retention button should be made of metal where it contacts magazine. Replacement parts.

I had a really bad experience with this gun. I ended up paying almost as much as the gun in shipping and duty fees and import charges, and it barely worked 5 minutes. I even bought two extra mags, and was really excited to have a blast with this sweet replica. I'm almost tempted to keep it for a shelf or something. So Sad :'(

Very realistic look and feel. Pistol shoots crazy fast on full auto. Even though the plastic grips are attractive, I plan on replacing them with real wood grips.

Perhaps include a spare magazine.

This pistol will bring a smile to your face every time you shoot it. You just cannot beat full auto !!!
