Page 9 - Legends M712 Full-Auto Reviews

Weirdest darn thing I have ever had the chance to shoot.Feels very much like a real fire arm once you figure out how to hold it.Has become one of my favorites.

Better sights -shoots very high no matter how you sight it in.

Had trouble with the air valve sticking and blowing out all the Co2.Lubricated the valve and has been OK for several cylinders now.

The upgrade on this pistol is well worth the additional cost. The feel and look are good and the grips look so much like wood that people don't know they are not wood.

Loading the magazine would be easer if the follower could be held back with a notch to slip it into.

The full auto is fun but not very practical and if you don't pay attention you can run the co2 cyl. dry in a hurry.

Quality and feel of the M712 is outstanding. The autofire mode is a ton of fun, the clip loading is NOT. Five minutes loading and two minutes shooting.

The loading process of one BB at a time is painful and will limit my use and enjoyment of this fine gun. Needs to be improved to get full value from the M712.

This gun is very realistic. The clip is particularly nice and fits/slides in very well. The blowback action is nothing short of spectacular! When it is in full-auto mode it is almost like shooting the real thing.Very scary says the girlfriend.

Nothing

A bit heavy/daunting for a slender girl. Surely not to be used by a novice or anyone under 14. This gun is dangerous and can do a lot of damage in a short amount of time. Used properly by a responsible and capable adult and it will provide tons of fun. Get lots of C02 and ammo.

Very solid frame

Sight is very flimsy plastic and the slightest touch would have changed windage making accurate sighting impossible. I returned this gun for this reason.

select fire ,metal construction, solid feel, wood type grips.

loose barrel needed to be tightened, only 18 rds and full auto. Rear sight is to shallow and narrow for front sight. Should ship with extra mag as an option

You have to get one before politicians find out how much fun it is and ban them

The realism and feel of it,The full auto mode,all metal,blowback, The plastic grips look like wood,it is the best I have seen, there is even a slot in the grip like the firearm version for the shoulder stock.I wonder if one could be availible someday. The Mauser firearm stock sells for at least three times the cost of the co2 version.I liked this gun so much" I bought two of them.

The Allen Key,it could get lost,it is something else to lug around, The loading of the clip leaves a lot to be desired unless one has very small hands the loading is frustrating and even harder if you have a disibilty.But I found a simple solution and listed it in, What else should air gunners sholud know.

I made a two clip loading stand and I also adapted a
telescoping magnet that will pick up bb's and all you have to do
is to bring the magnet to the loading port and just push the bb down,I can't believe how great it works and how simple it was to
use.My main desire is to get a higher magazine clip capacity
so one can enjoy the gun even more.I think 88 gram
adapter like the Drozd has would really be great.
Try and get extra clips,but right now they are on backorder
I say one thing the cost is high but they are built like tanks.
no chintzy plastic here.

I like the fact that it is full auto and semi-auto. Full auto rocks and you will empty a mag before you know it. I didn't think that I would like the broom handle look,but now that I have it, I like the look and the feel of it.

This gun is so cool that I would not change a thing.

This gun is a lot of fun to shoot, so stock up on CO 2 and BBS.

Nicely made, good, rugged feel in your hand. Very cool looking. Also, this gun is habit-forming! It's an absolute blast to shoot on full-auto, and if you bring it out around other people, you'll be the instant center of attention.

Make it use a little less CO2. On full-auto, I only get 2-3 mags out of it because of the blowback action. But it's STILL really cool.

My first gun blew an internal seal after only a dozen uses, but Pyramyd Air replaced it, with no problems and very quickly. The new gun has given me no problems so far. Accuracy is acceptable and power is pretty good. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to rock and roll.

i can't compare it to the real firearm as i have never fired one but i LIKE IT. its a lot of fun to shoot. full auto shooting is great fun and with this gun the cost of shooting is low compared to the powder burner.

it would use less co2 if it would stop firing after the last BB. a shoulder stock would be a great option. a larger capacity magazine would make full auto shooting even more enjoyable. 30 rounds would be my suggestion.

buying extra mags is always good to do. i recommend buying this gun to my friends. the video review that paul did on this gun is excellent, check it out.

Very realistic reproducion

better accuracy

This is the most uncomfortable gun to hold due to it's broom handle.

I like the fact this is an all metal pistol, that it has blow back, can be fired in full automatic mode, although I prefer shooting it in 6 shot bursts when set on full auto. Being all metal, this firearm has good weight and balance and a very light trigger pull. Looks to be an accurate copy of the original firearm.

I see no reason to change anything on this pistol or if you could in this price range. Considering my experience with it, it's overall quality and performance, I consider it to be a good value. A fun pistol to shoot in doors (garage or basement) and will help keep your shooting skills sharp until its time to return to the range or field with the high power pistols.

Pay attention to the reviews. Mine arrived with a slightly loose outer barrel too but it only took a few seconds to give a quarter turn to the barrel screw to tighten it with an Allen wrench. This resulted in good accuracy right from the start. I first shot in semi action mode until the first CO2 canister was exhausted and then loaded a new CO2 and again got 72 good shots in full automatic shooting six shot bursts. Accuracy remain reasonably good. In both semi auto and auto modes, one CO2 canister handled four full magazines loaded with 18 BB's each time.

Looks very realistic. Very solidly built, and a real blast to shoot. On full auto it really rips the bbs out. Seems to be pretty accurate, even on auto. So far I have had no malfunctions with mine. It is a heavy gun, probably weighs about as much as the real thing, I'm guessing. A real C96 Mauser pistol is cost prohibitive, but I think this one is a good substitute for all those who want one, and don't want to shell out thousands of dollars.

Adding a high capacity magazine would be nice, since it empties the 18rd clip in about 1 second. The outer barrel is held in by a set screw, and mine was a little wobbly. Fortunately I had the right sized hex wrench to tighten the set screw, now barrel is solid. I think gluing the outer barrel on would have been a better choice. The inner barrel, however, was solid from the start.

Overall a very nice gun. I would have given it all 5's if it weren't for their choice of barrel attachment. You will be loading this gun a lot, but it is worth it. After seeing this one up close, I really want the Luger next!

I like the looks and weight. The full auto is great fun. I have a bit of the legends collection going on and it is so far the star of the show as far as the wow factor.

A shoulder stock would be good.

Mine also has the loose scew for the barrel. I'm afraid of tightening to much.It does snug up the barrel but works loose again and I feel as though each time the screw may be going deeper and maybe cause some damage. The action does not stay open on last shot.

It has the heft and feel of a real broom handle and the action is the same. Accurate and reliable with a light trigger pull. It doesn't get any cooler or more fun than to shoot this replica pistol.

`The barrel cover was loose so I had to shim it and loc-tite the small set screw. It would be nice to have the bolt hold open after the last shot.

`Don't oil the plunger on the front of the bolt- it will cause it to stay in full auto until co2 runs out. Stock up on co2 because it's hard to stop shooting this pistol.

This is an improved version of the same model gun that had been released to the marketplace only a few months ago. This one doesn't have the ''plastic'' feeling, never mind that the price of this better issue is about twice that of the earlier one. Maybe buyers protested about the flimsy impression projected by the earlier version. If so, Umarex must be complimented for having listened...

With this new release version, nothing.

realistic

mak!e a detachable stock available as the real one had

beautifully made

Ever since I was a kid, I wanted a BB machine pistol that had a self contained power source and was built well enough to last. I never imagined it would happen and that it would also come as one of the best replicas I have ever seen. Side by side it is hard to tell which is the real machine pistol. The power suffices for what it is. There are more powerful pistols out there, but not any with such detail and precision to the real pistol. I did not expect all these features for the price of this fine product.

There should be a thicker lanyard ring on the base of the grip, and a holster/shoulder stock should be made available for purchase.

This pistol is perfect for shooting in the garage or in the basemnet at paper/cardboard targets or plinking cans

Great looking , very true to the original pistol. Good weight and solid feeling in your hand. It fires well in both single and full auto mode. Full auto shoots very fast and is a little difficult to control, but that's not really a problem it kinda makes it more fun to shoot. Accuracy is good for a smooth bore gun I can hit cans at 30 ft. no problem.

I don't thimk I would change anything on this gun. I can't find anything wrong with it.

This gun uses a lot of Co2 so be sure to stock up when you buy the gun. Try one you won't be sorry.
kw

excellent workmanship how it fits my hand and the weight would never know it was a replica gun. semi auto is great but full auto is mind blowing i cant put it down .it works flawless in all modes able to adjust the rear sight works very well.

not a thing but a stock would be nice

get one haven,t had this much fun in a long time .all so will need lots of amo. and co2 ,extra mag, or so.
