Umarex Legends MP40 Ultimate Combo

if the mags were better it would easily be a 5-star purchase-

Pros
As most others have mentioned, it looks great, feels great, and is a lot of fun to shoot!

Cons
Also as others have mentioned, getting the mag to load evenly and getting both CO2 cartridges to pierce at the same time can be a little finicky-

Oil as directed. Full auto...........................................

Pros
Very lifelike. Kills clean pests at close range. Super fun for the money.

Cons
clips need easier loading design. Not bad just use a shim of angle and ???

Keep lots of bbs and air cylinders ready.

Pros
Feels like the real thing. Weight is perfect and functional like the real deal.

Cons
Nothing. I have many airguns and this one is my favorite.

Pros
Good

Buying other brands of CO2 cartridges will sometimes cause penetration failures. After experiences with this, I will always stay with "GAMO" CO2 products. One other item. Using the supplied 8mm Allen wrench does not give you much "Leverage" when tightening the puncture "Screw". I overcame this problem very quickly at age 88 & not the strength of 28! Take a 1/2 square steel tube 6" long, then wrap the 8mm allen with a few rounds of duct tape on the long end, & gently tap the 8mm allen into the square tube, this will give you all the needed leverage when puncturing the Co2 cartridges!

Pros
Love my new MP40 Auto, reproduction is great!

Cons
After ordering 2 spare mags, the follower "NUB" is very hard to stay engaged in order to load bb's. I'm sure engineer's could make the "NUB" a bit more taller for easier operation & easy on the fingernails!

Pros
Very accurate, extremely fun to shoot. The weight and the feel is of a real MP40. I would suggest buying an extra magazine and extra CO2. You get about 100 shots on fully automatic. I have not yet counted in semi-automatic to see how many BB's it will shoot. A 2 capsule magazine is better than one capsule when it comes to fully automatic. It seems to be very consistent and robust. Quality of manufacturing is really good. I've been a air gun owner since the 70s and having something like this is a dream come true! I did order an original MP40 strap for it, and it fits perfect. This is one of the few Smooth Bore Barrel guns I have. It is surprisingly accurate for a Smooth Bore. Groups real tight semi auto mode. It is loud, it's not anything you can shoot in your backyard if you have neighbors as close as I do. Also, it been of World War II era weapon it looks good on wall too! It will impress your friends.

Cons
None.

love it

If you want to put a smile on your face, spend some time with this gun. It's a hoot to shoot and suprisingly accurate. It's a fun day in the backyard.

The Umarex Legends MP40 is a great adult toy if you have the money to spend on a frivolous item. After you have your initial fun, let your wife fire you few magazines to lessen any grief over the purchase. I did buy the combo pack, which was worth the price because of the two extra magazines. I have seen the gun priced cheaper, but not from what I would consider reputable sellers. Stick with AGD, they have been kind to me. I do suggest shopping around (Ebay) for CO2 cartridges. Sorry AGD, but that leaves more money to spend with you folks on other items. I'm not picking on anyone, but there was a review that suggested letting a WWII vet re-live some memories. You might refrain from that if they were a combat vet. Just do a search on WWII veterans reaction to "Saving Private Ryan." I didn't mean to offended anyone, especially someone who invested their time in sharing their thoughts on this gun.

Pros
Fun to shoot. Did I mention fun to shoot? If you come home mad or just need to blow off some steam, keep your targets set up, so you can empty a couple of magazines. I find the gun to be quite, but most of my neighbors have four legs and they never complain. Full Auto. The magazines feed well and air cartridges are easy to load and thus far, have not leaked, even after a week or two of being punctured. With some practice you can walk an aluminum can cheaper and quieter than with a powder burner. A good way to have fun with others, just be sure to let the wife and/or kids win sometimes; justifies the frivolous expense. The gun is fairly accurate even in full auto, but don't try to kill anything other than time, unless you are desperate.

Cons
Loading the magazines: 1. The accessory pack comes with a plastic loader. A plastic loader to load steel BBs in to a steel magazine. It lasted through one and a half magazine re-loads. A total POS, made in China. I would be embarrassed to sell it. 2. Poor engineering on the magazine spring. It would have been so easy to have added a notch to hold down the spring, while you load the magazines. I hope that was Chinese engineering, because anyone else should have known better. If you are good with a Dremel type tool, you might be able to cut your own notch to hold the spring compressor. These are expensive and I haven't gotten that desperate yet. 3. Feeding the BBs in to the magazine would be easier with three arms and hands. However, the easiest way I have found is to cut a small hole in your Umarex Precision Steel BBs and pour them in over the top of or inside a plastic tub to catch the overflows. That is based on several different attempts with different items, such as a funnel, thin cardboard folded into a V, etc. 4. Aligning the BBs in the magazine. For maximum capacity, they need to be staggered, just like real bullets in a double stack magazine. It can be done, but it will test your patience. You will get better after yo re-load enough times. 5. The gun is heavy, so young shooters might struggle to keep it on target without some sort of barrel rest.

Everyone who has seen it is impressed with the weight, feel, and appearance.

Cons
Co2 goes quickly.
