Overall people, a GREAT replica that is a bit more than just a wall hanger but based on the inconsistent and inaccurate shooting, it's not more by much. When plinking, save this one for your friend who swears he is a crack shot, place down a bet and you use a cheap Daisy BB pistol. This is one way to get more entertainment out of a fairly useless pistol and to make some of your money back.
Pros
All metal firearm is hefty and feels real. The blowback action and operation is astoundingly accurate and functional. The trigger is sweet and crisp. It's built like a brick outhouse. The P08 breaks down almost like the original via the takedown lever. Watching that toggle pop up and down is a hecka sight to see. Slide locks back on empty magazine. It fires with decent force.
Cons
This is, seriously, the most inaccurate co2 pistol I own. It is not user error. I can slowly and methodically empty a magazine at a splatter target about 40' away and this thing misses every time. The BB's fly everywhere but mostly low and to the right. There is no danged way to hit that target. Lest you think it's me, I have picked up a cheap, all plastic Daisy CO2 pistol immediately after shooting this and I hit 2" groupings at the same target, same distance. The sights are true to the original which is to say that they are AWFUL. I cannot tell you why this one is so inaccurate but even at bench rest, sand bag shooting, you still can't hit a barn door with this.
Pros
This is a very realistic replica! The blowback action really adds to the fun shooting this pistol. The crescent moon shaped trigger is very smooth. The safety switch is positive and just like the original luger.
Cons
The grips are the only thing I would change either to a heavier plastic or another material.
At only 300 fps this is just a target pistol but it's lot's of fun! Pretty accurate too.
Pros
This is a very realistic replica of the German Luger. The blowback function really adds to the fun of target shooting. I assume the CO2 cartridge will not last long though. Still, I think it's worth it in this case.
Cons
As with all of these replicas, the grips look good but have a very plasticy feel. A rubber grip would be more authentic and feel better.
Buy it - shoot it - have a ball!
Pros
Way too much fun!
Blowback action makes for a 'real' experience and really doesn't affect your aim. This pistol is VERY accurate and it fires as fast. as you can pull the trigger. It's too tempting to empty the full magazine all at once. Love it
Cons
Make loading the magazine easier.....or at least put in a stop for the spring so you don't need to hold it all of the time while trying to load it.
If you own a powder burner of this pistol. Highly recommend getting this for cheaper practice.
Pros
Bought this model for my Dad's birthday. He has an original German officers model. He was "shocked" at the attention to detail, weight.. all of it. It's absolutely the best.
Cons
Non
If you're a collector you need this pistol.
Pros
Nice weight and feel. Shoots well and on target from 10m.
Cons
Wooden grips and a tab that would hold back the spring for loading bbs.
Pros
It has an authentic feel and looks amazing
Cons
It will not feed a single round and when I try to un jam it it expelled the entire co2 cartridge it absolutely does not function I am so disappointed
Pros
The blowback and slide mechanism IS very cool and fun to shoot. Weight and detail are really nice. Accuracy is pretty darn good for what it is (a blowback replica).
Cons
1cart only shoots 2clips (42rds). It does exactly 2 clips though so I guess that’s convenient. I know that’s the price you pay for the cool blowback but it’s a little disappointing. I wish it had 2 clips included.
Great fun
Pros
Most authentic air pistol that I have and I have many air pistols. I think the volocity is greater than the 300 fps that it is
rated at. Mine hits very hard.
Cons
Only complaint is that co2 leaks out overnight. So load it and shoot it.
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.Can this gun be dry fired. No BBs. I need a German WW2 gun for the stage and of course can not shoot somebody with a projectile. The sound seems good enough to fairly realistically fire the gun. Will the blowback mechanism prevent me from firing dry?
asked Eberhard from USACan this version also be field stripped like the WWII edition
asked AdamYes
Earl from USANeed a Fix for unwanted "Full Auto" after 1 month of use.
asked Mike D,Will after market wooden grips fit?
asked Michael DeMitaDoes the toggle stay open on the last BB? THanks
asked Robert from USAYes
Earl from USADoes the non blowback version have the same look and feel as the blow back gun? Except for the blow back feature is there any difference between them?
asked a from USAFeels real good for the bucks
Earl from USAHello. Could you ship it to Montreal Canada? And how much + - will be shipping? Regards Yuri
asked Yuri from CanadaCan the toggle action be stabilized to get more FPS out of the barrel?
asked Col KlinkDon't think so just buy the non blowback Cheaper n has more FPS
Earl from USAI'm wondering if I can shoot lead pellets with this? I just ordered this, along with 1500 of the H&N copper plated lead pellets. I read somewhere this has a magnetic tip in the bolt?
asked Michael from USAFor some reason I can't get the CO2 cartridge to properly seal in the clip. Can't find any specs on adjustments. When I tighten the nut on the bottom I can hear the cartridge being punctured but the gas escapes completely.
asked SteveUse a little pelloil to seal the leaking and put some tape on top of the co2 cartrige before you tight it. Good luck
AbelYou may need a new o-ring. You sure also try a drop of rem oil on the tip if the cop capsule. You can cut a patch of rubber and place it in the hole with. Be sure to cut a s n all hole for piercing tip.

Pros
Looks Only
Cons
Everything! I received this item & was very impressed with the looks & feel. I got the mag out, loaded it. Put in a brand new CO2 cartage. Went to seat the mag. NO-GO! Wouldn't Seat, I tried everything I could think of, without causing damage. Unloaded the Mag - still wouldn't seat. Finally took out the CO2 cartage, it discharged the cartage. Put everything back together, attempted to Seat the Mag --- NO GO, Again. Just returned the item.
