loads of fun. I think the squirrels are safe, but the cans have to watch out.

the mag spring lock is tough to grab with fat fingers, as usual. maybe could have been a little bigger.

Get a spare mag, but be sure it is the M712 mag, not the C96 like I did. Search under the gun itself, not Accessories.

It's a great paperweight, a bit expensive though.

If I could change anything it would be buying this thing.

Read the manual twice, oiled the CO2 cylinder tip as instructed, loaded the magazine and all went well for 18 shots. After that the BBs just roll out of the barrel and it will not fire.

Man!, have the BBs and Co2 at the ready ! lots of fun, with pretty good accuracy. I find that three short burst work best for me in full auto. Otherwise, you'll blow through the 18 BBs in less than two seconds. I'll probably purchase a spare magazine to increase shooting time. Only issue I had with the pistol is the barrel shroud worked loose. Its kept in place by an small Allen head set screw on the bottom of the barrel. I re-tightened it and it worked loose again. I cleaned the surface and put some lock tite on the surfaces, squared up and re-tightened the set screw. I've had no other issues with this pistol. its all metal, except for the broom handle, which is plastic, but no issue there.

I think a quality check is in order for the loose barrel housing. I was able to fix mine on my own, but have read about this issue before. Everything else is top quality.

Have plenty BBs ready and Co2 cartridges handy. With the authentic blow back action its a real pleasure to shoot. And, you'll be the cool Guy at the next back yard ally shoot

Awesome to look at and fire...beast in full auto mode

many bb's fill breach when cocking

be careful with this gun as the trigger is very light

This is one of the most fun guns to shoot. I love the look and feel as well. The full metal body is very substantial while the paintjob looks almost authentic.

I can't say I would change it, but the reload is painfully slow.

You need about 1 CO2 per 2 clips of BB's. You can get halfway through the third, but there is not enough pressure to do much.

The look. Very much like the firearm. Gotta love this replica because I will never the firearm. Fun to shoot is an understatement. NOTHING IS MORE FUN THEN FULL AUTO.

Nothing at all.

Well worth the money. I have purchased several guns from PyramidAir and have been delighted with all the products and especially with prices and the outstanding customer service. The one return I had was handled with efficiency and allecrity. I look forward to doing a lot more business with PyramidAir.

The feel, all metal except for the handle it's plastic but looks great. The auto fire is out of this world. All 18 bb's go out the barrel in about 3 seconds, super fast. The blow-back action is great but uses a lot of CO2.

Nothing.

It goes through one cartridge (12 gram ) in two clips in full auto. Maybe three if you stop firing on the last bb in the clip. The bb's are a pain to load for 3 seconds of shooting but heck this pistol is sooooo cooool in full auto. If you do not like loading bb's and going through a lot of cartridges than do not buy this gun.

Replica's of fine old hard to fid or impossible to find pieces. Excellent piece of reproduction and it is fully operational, amazing!

Maybe make available an additional cassette for co-2 and BB's. that makes it a bit easier to use and actually more fun than reloading which can be a tedious task with BBs

Worth the money and a lot of fun to use and own. Right smart replica of an old WW II piece.

Awesome. First fully automatic I've ever shot.

Fix the opening where BBs are inserted. I have the original magazine plus an extra magazine and both were so tight that the BBs had to be pressed into the opening. I used a 3/16th drill bit, twisted about two times, just enough to enlarge the hole slightly. Worked beautifully. BBs are held in place by the upper pressure of the spring, they won't fall out.

Once modified, Marksman BB speed loader is a must. It will eat up BBs and CO2.

the looks of the pistol are impressive. haven't shot it very much yet.

needs a larger capacity clip. don't like 10mm wrench for co2

just because it'll fire full auto, I wouldn't do it very often. cheap metal was used.

This is the first full/auto I've fired since I got out of the military. What a hoot. It empties a full magazine like right -now.Fun, fun, fun. I'm a 75yr. old stroke surviver. This was made for me.

Not a thing.

If you are looking for a fun shoot, buy one.

The looks, weight and realism

Gun is basically made of cast and pot metal and if you get a good one, consider yourself lucky.

This WW I I M712 replica is no better than the first full auto gun, it still has the tiny set screw holding the barrel which comes lose and is very easy to strip if tightened, very poor design. The clip is frustrating to load, the thumb plunger locks covering the BB fill hole and has to be held back filling one BB at a time and then will not recess down to hold the BB's without forcing it with a finger nail or pointed object, all this effort for a 5 second blast. My gun was sent back for a refund because the single/full auto switch broke after shooting only one clip of BB's. This gun being shot in full auto actually beats itself to death and will not hold up. I had two of the original M712 full auto guns that were also sent back for defects. My opinion is it makes a good wall hanger or paper weight

I like the aged look of this replica

For added realism , I would have liked a wooden handle.

Nothing.... This airgun is perfect....3 stars for accuracy but I 'm not a very good shooter.

Very realistic good weight nice blowback action .A fantastic re-creation of a very unique firearm.Very fun to shoot! and I find it to be very accurate in semi automatic mode.In full auto it fires so fast short controlled bursts are recommended! although blasting through a full mag is ridiculously fun.

If I were to change anything it would be a higher capacity clip.And maybe slightly more subdued safety lettering? A broom handle shoulder stock with storage would be a nice option for ammo co2 an extra mag but the mags are expensive one extra mag would suffice.

At about 1000 rounds fired one day without any warning and this pistol has been properly maintained the magazine just fell right out!.I could feel the magazine wasn't locking in.After calling umarex the tech told me he knew exactly what was wrong he said it was the mag release button not allowing the lock to fully engage.Since I was past my warranty period I had to fix it myself and it was very easy.Using 3M medical tape the thinnest possible 3M transpore I strategically placed the tape on the clip and after inserting it and seeing where the tape had chaffed I used a razor to trim being very careful not to block any mechanisms.Since I've done this not one jam full auto no problems and the tape isn't wearing out at all it just closed up the tolerances making the mag not fall out the only problem is the mag has to be pulled out with the release button held.If this problem occurs and you try to hold the magazine up manually it will jam and double feed.Simple tape repair perfect alignment.

Very hefty and realistic-feeling. Good blowback action. Fun to shoot.

Magazine is a pain to load for just 18 shots. This beast needs a snail drum-type mag or something similar. Also, the blowback action, while realistic and interesting, wastes a ton of CO2. Just two mags per cartridge in full-auto mode is about the best you'll get. Semi-auto works fine, too, but... why? This gun us all about "Schnellfeuer."

Minor annoyances aside, this thing is a blast to shoot. It throws BBs all ovr the place on full-auto, but why waltz when you can rock and roll? I'd recommend it without reservation.
