Umarex Legends MP40 BB Submachine Gun

Shoots great. No problems

Pros
Looks and feels like the original in WWII

Pros
I bought this gun several months ago and it was terrible feeding BB's, I think if they were not double stacked that would not have happined. I tried several brands of BB's and found that Hornady Black Diamond BB's were the best of the bunch, but still not good. Then my son suggested graphite powder. That fixed the problem. Otherwise it is is a great gun in every other respect. No regrets at all

Cons
Use Black Diamond BB's and GRAPHITE powder

Pros
I gave this thing a bad review thinking a BB is a BB. That is NOT the case! Umarex BBs are the ONLY ones this gun will feed. Don't waste your time trying any others. After making that discovery, this thing is FUN! Great authenticity and feel. And fun. Awesome action. Fun. Good accuracy on semi auto. And did I mention it's fun?

Cons
Magazine is a bit difficult to load. On full auto, this thing is a CO2 hog. Takes two CO2 cartridges at a time and they won't get you through 2 full mags on full auto.

I've always wanted to shoot the MP40, but not in semi auto. And since I don't have a class 3, I thought that would never happen. Enter the Umarex Legend. It's very affordable. Very well made, and fun! As BB guns go,most are plastic, lightweight,and not very accurate.The Umarex is none of these! And with the full auto setting, it's a blast to shoot. Accuracy is better than I imagined, single shot is very good. I was hitting dead on most the time, full auto was also good. This is quality work! I can't think of a single bad thing to report about this gun! Accuracy, affordability and fully automatic! What else do you want! Get one!

shoots a little random on full auto, on semi- auto can group around 2 inches at 75 feet. the biggest drawback at this point is that the magazine spring is weak and can't feed the BB's fast enough to keep up with the action. If you hold the magazine level works fine, vertical can't keep up. Entertaining as hell to watch my son shoot it sideways on full auto, feeding the gangster in all juveniles? Accuracy goes down to about a 4 inch circle at 75 feet. Overall great entertainment and shooting at plastic bottles and tin cans but not a precision weapon by any means.

Exactly as the headline states, this airgun is simply jolly good fun to use. Well built, operates properly and I have yet to have any issues. Eats CO2 for breakfast, lunch and dinner on full auto, as one might expect but the Confederation of Cans was forced into retreat none the less. A WORD OF WARNING THOUGH, this does look, though obviously not sound, like a real firearm from a distance and up close. Be sure to keep this in mind while using it, I live in the country so I am less worried but you get the jist.

First full auto air gun (or otherwise) I've fired. Loads of fun. I get about 250 rounds (5 total magazines/2 CO2 cartridges). You do have to make sure to pierce both cartridges without over tightening. As others have noted, it helps to put a couple coins between them as spacers. I have only had one jam. Put in some dry lubricant into the mag and the issue went away. You do need to load with the BB's "stacking" in a zig zag for proper loading. If you pour them in slowly and pay attention, it's not bad, in spite of some complaints you'll read.

Pros
Hefty, real-deal feel Full auto goodness

Cons
Magazine is slow to load, but worth taking the time to do it right (at which point jamming is not an issue)

the magazine is poorly designed there is no lock on the spring for loading the BB's,this makes it very hard to load and the quick loader doesn't work right it jams all the time.Umarex needs to address and fix these problems before i recamend this gun to anybody.

I LOVE THIS GUN, LOVE IT ,LOVE IT JUST A BLAST TO SHOOT, WORKS PERFECTLY.

Pros
WORKS GREAT

Cons
HAVENT FOUND ANY

Umarex will not repair any gun under $500. If the gun is under warranty they will replace it but if the warranty has expired and you have a problem you are out of luck. When I sent my gun to them to replace a trigger spring I was told that their gunsmiths don't repair guns, and they don't sell parts. WTF!!!. They suggested I throw mine away and buy a new one. So much for me buying another Umarex gun.

Pros
Great looking gun Works well All metal construction All around fun

Cons
No gun repair service No parts available Horrible after warranty customer service Cannot even supply manufactures contact information
