Well it took a long time but the Crosman Kimar CK92 .177 caliber pellet pistols finally arrived from the Kimar factory and they are now on sale. The reason it took so long is because each and every one of them was inspected prior to the entire shipment being released. Guess that's a good thing at the end of the day and worth waiting for!

Originally we thought they where going to be brand spanking new but when they arrived the years sitting around in the Kimar factory has aged them just a bit but not like the age of a used gun for sure.

Because of this we have decided to sell them as Refurbished units and as a refurbished unit we have dropped the price just a bit on them and they are now $99 for the black and $119 for the Chrome. We also got less then we expected, I guess some did not pass the tests so we won't have these forever and they may go up near the end.

Just to summaries what the CK92 is:

• A Crosman and Kimar joint production
• Originally made from 2000-2001
• .177 cal. Pellets
• 8 Round magazine
• CO2 Powered
• 394 fps
• 8.4 Inches long
• Single and double action
• Fully adjustable rear sight
• All metal design
• 2.6 Pounds (Heavy!)
• Made in Italy
• Beretta 92FS Replica
• Available in Black and Chrome
• A real collectors item!

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.

Manufacturer: Baikal.

Model:MP-655K.

Materials: Weapons grade metal slide & polymer frame.

Weight: 1.5 pounds.

Barrel: 4.4 inches, metal-rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, double and single action.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber lead pellets & 4.5mm steel BB's.

Ammunition Capacity: 8 rounds rotary pellet magazine & 100 round BB hopper.

FPS: 360.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the MP-655K is in the medium range with the single action being a bit lighter due to less cocking effort required. There is some force required to rotate the rotary magazines when shooting both pellets and BB's. It's important to make sure you use pellets that fit the rotary magazine correctly or they may move around and cause the magazine to bind up requiring additional trigger force.

Accuracy: I found the Baikal MP-655K to be a good shooter, this airgun took me some time to get used to however, so make sure to give it some time and also make sure to try an assortment of pellets as they do effect the trigger pull and the trigger pull ultimately effects accuracy. I did get about a 2 inch 8 shot grouping from an unrested 20 foot out position but I know this gun is capable of much better results. BB's also did fairly well in my test results. My Chronograph testing also confirmed that you can expect to get feet per second rating in-between 300 and 360 fps when using both pellets and BB's.

Build Quality: Excellent, like just about all the Baikal products, these guns are built to very high standards. the designs are sometimes unusual but you can count on the quality to be top notch and in most cases there is little to no difference between the materials used in Baikal's real guns and their air guns.

Realism: The Baikal IZH MP-655K is closely based on the real steel Baikal Viking 9mm semi auto pistol, or (Yarygin pistol) the latest Russian standard military-issue side arm. As far is looking and feeling like a real gun, it sure plays the part. Both the air gun version and 9mm version have steel slides and polymer frames.

Purchased From: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Very high quality materials.

• Tuff looking gun, looks and feels more like a real gun then an airgun

• Unique design, only 100 round BB pistol that I know of.

• Easy to load BB's, just dump them in and shoot.

• Can shoot Pellets and BB's.

• Shoots both in single and double action.

• Fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

• Magazine is easy to load CO2, also has storage for extra BB's.

• Good for lefties too, ambidextrous safety and magazine release.

• Made in Russia!

Cons:

• You wWill have to read manual and get used to this guns operation.

• A bit hard to load the pellet magazine at first.

• Trigger is kind of funny and a bit hard on fingers.

Comments:

The Baikal MP-655K Pellet and BB Air pistol is another excellent product from Baikal, it is an extremely unique air gun in that it shoots both pellets with an 8 shot rotary magazine but can also shoot up to 100 BB's with its integrated 100 round BB hopper and special adapted magnetized rotary BB magazine! The quality of this gun is outstanding and there are tons of great features like the rifled barrel, fully adjustable sights, single and double action trigger, moving slide with slide catch, weapons grade materials and of course the ability to shoot both pellets and BB's. You are going to need to take some extra time to fully understand how to best use this air gun but the extra effort is well worth it in the end!

I've had several inquiries about adding the Baikal MP-655K to the store and I am proud to let you know we now have another very fine Baikal product available for sale.

This finely crafted Baikal MP-655Kair pistol is capabel fo firing both Pellet and BB using either an 8 shot pellet magazine or switching it over to a BB magazine that loads BB's from a 100 round internal hopper. The MP-655K has a rifled barrel and is know to be very accurate even when shooting BB's from it. It is a replica of the Baikal Viking and just like teh real steel it incorporates  metal slide and polymer frame. The Drop out magazine neatly holds and conceals the CO2.

• .177 caliber pellets & 4.5mm BB
• CO2 Powered
• 8 round pellet magazine & 100 shot BB hopper
• 360 fps
• 1.5 pounds
• 4.4 inch steel rifled barrel
• Single and double action

Type: Pellet Air Pistol.

Manufacturer: Crosman.

Model: 1377 American Classic.

Materials: Metal & plastic.

Weight: 2 pounds.

Barrel: 10.25 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: Multi-pump pneumatic.

Action: Bolt-action single shot, single action only.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber pellet.

Ammunition Capacity: 1 round.

FPS: 495.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Crosman 1377 American Classic is non-adjustable but is short and light with virtually no creep at all, it's just right there! It makes for very accurate shot placement.

Accuracy: I found the Crosman 1377 to be an amazing target pistol, getting about a 1/2 inch grouping from 30 feet out in a semi-rested position. And I performed my accuracy test twice with the same result each time. I also put the America Classic through the Chrony Chronograph test using increasingly more pumps each time and got it up into the 460+ fps range with 15 pumps using 6.9 grain RWS lead pellets. Keep in mind this is the Canadianized version that has been release valve limited to under 500 fps, so over-pumping should not hurt this gun too much, but either way do so at your own risk as Crosman says it's a 10 pump gun...

Build Quality: The Crosman 1377 American Classic is not a fancy looking gun but it gets the job done with a mostly metal design and build. Remember this gun has been around for 40 years and has pretty much stayed the same so Crosman must be doing something right with it.

Realism: The Crosman 1377 pellet pistol is not a replica, it is a target airgun, so it looks like a target air pistol and for that we'll give it high marks ;)

Available at: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Very inexpensive target pistol at $59.

• Amazing accuracy!

• Ability to regulate power with the amount of pumps.

• Mostly metal construction.

• Rifled barrel.

• Adjustable sights for windage and elevation.

• Light and short single action trigger.

• Would be good for small pest control because of its decent FPS and excellent accuracy for precise shot placement ability.

• Lots of mods and upgrades available for this gun!

• It has been around for 40 years!

Cons:

• Trigger is a bit thin (but can be upgraded)

• Sights are fully adjustable but a bit hard to adjust.

Comments:

The Crosman 1377 America Classic .177 caliber pellet pistol is a must have target air pistol, even though I own the much more full featured (and pricey!) Webley Alecto .22 caliber multi-pump pneumatic target air pistol, the Crosman 1377 is still great to own and shoot. I think one day I will pass my 1377 down to my son when he is ready to learn the art of accurate pistol target shooting. The fact that you can head out for the day with the 1377 America Classic in one hand and a tin of .177 caliber pellets in the other and shoot till you can't shoot any more, with no CO2 required makes it very inviting - and pretty much everything you point it at will get nocked down or nailed dead on.

OK, this is getting stupid now, sure the Valtro Airgun 92 is selling at the already low price of $119 - That's $30 off the regular price but I want to take it up a notch and really sell a bunch of these well made Italian Beretta 92FS styled air pistols. So for a limited time you can get yourself this 14 shot, double CO2 .177 caliber pellet shooting single and double action pistol for $50 off the regular price!

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.
Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.
Model: Smith & Wesson M&P 45.
Materials: Plastic (polymer) and metal construction.
Weight: 1.35 pounds.
Barrel: 3.3 inches, metal rifled.
Propulsion: CO2 x 1.
Action: Semi auto, single and double action.
Ammunition Type: .177 caliber Pellets and 4.5mm BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 8 shot rotary magazine.
FPS: 360.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 is better then with the Umarex PPQ and not only because you also get a single action trigger with the S&W M&P 45 but the double action trigger is also smother with less force required. Shooting this gun pre-cocked in single action mode is great for when you want to zone in on a target but you can always shoot double action when it's time to just blast!
Accuracy: I shot this air pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position, and it performed well getting a decent 2 inch grouping with both the pellets and the BB's very close to the center of the target. I found it performed equally as well in both single and double action. As I shot this gun I seemed to get more focussed and I ended up getting tighter groupings with it. The sights can be adjusted for windage if your aim is off to one side or the other. My Chrony Chronograph testing using 6.9 grain lead pellets and standard weight BB's averaged about the same in the 330-340 fps.

Build Quality: This is an almost all external polymer air gun with a good deal of metal components on the inside giving the S&W M&P 45 a decent overall weight and heft. I actually felt the stated weight seemed a bit low, it would be interesting to put this one on a scale and find out for sure? Some of the external metal parts worth noting are the safety switch, slide release, and trigger. The fit and finish is very good on the PPQ and the plastic is the good stuff just like the similarly made Umarex PPQ.
Realism: The Umarex S&W M&P 45 is a licensed replica of the actual Smith & Wesson M&P 45 semi auto pistol. It is a very close looking copy with the exception of the missing extractor pin and right side slide release. There is a lot of attention to detail that helps make this gun very believable like the large diameter barrel opening and Smith and Wesson markings throughout the airgun!
Provided by: UmarexUSA.

Pros:

• Very reasonable price for a well made full featured airgun.
• Excellent reproduction of the real S&W M&P 45 semi auto pistol.
• Shoots both pellets and BB's.
• Rifled barrel.
• Easy to use yellow dot sights adjustable for windage.
• Slide catch and safety are realistic and functional.
• Single and double action trigger.
• Well designed CO2 access both hides the CO2 and makes it easy to install.
• Good combination of power, accuracy and CO2 efficiency - I got 10 good magazines
• Even though there is a lot of plastic on the outside, there is a lot of metal on the inside giving this airgun some good weight and heft.

Cons:

• The plastic exterior may put off some customers looking for metal guns.
• Missing extractor pin takes a bit away form the realism.
• Could have just a bit more power - would be worth getting less shots per CO2.

Comments:
The Umarex Smith & Wesson M&P 45 Pellet and BB CO2 air pistol really impressed me. I was already fairly impressed with the Umarex PPQ and how far a little bit of money went with that very similarly designed Umarex model. But I have to say for me the S&W M&P 45 has the clear advantage mainly because of the addition of the single action trigger. The Umarex S&W M&P 45 really has a lot going for it: Great entry level price point, it shoots both Pellets or BB's, it has a rifled barrel, an adjustable rear sight, good accuracy with decent power and CO2 efficient and great looks. As with the Umarex PPQ, these qualities make it very easy to overlook the mostly plastic exterior!

Type: CO2 BB Shotgun.
Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.
Model: Walther SG9000.
Materials: Plastic (polymer) and some metal construction.
Weight: 2.35 pounds.
Barrel: 11.5 inches, metal non-rifled.
Propulsion: CO2 x 1 (88 gram).
Action: Semi auto, double action only.
Ammunition Type: 4.5mm BB's
Ammunition Capacity: 40 shot internal spring fed magazine.
FPS: 480 (single shot) - 250 (three shot burst).
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Walther SG 9000 is in the mid range and is a bit long but once you get used to it you can fire off shots very quickly with little resistance. There really aren't any sticky spots in the trigger pull to speak of.

Accuracy: I shot this CO2 BB Shotgun at a target from the hip 20 feet away using my NcSTAR laser sight I installed on it in a free standing position, and it performed excellent getting a 1.5 inch grouping fairly centered on target. I also performed my accuracy test from 30 feet out in a semi-rested position using my 6x32 NcSTAR Scope and again I got a 1.5 inch grouping proving that a BB gun can show decent accuracy even from further out when setup properly. With my Chrony Chronograph testing I scored much higher then the factory claimed feet per second of 480fps in single shot mode and 250fps in three shot burst mode. I ended up getting an average 8 shot fps in single shot mode of 504fps and 309fps in three shot burst mode!
Build Quality: This is an almost all external polymer air gun with some metal components on the inside giving the Walther SG9000 a bit of a light to medium overall weight but once you add the large 88 gram CO2 cartridge and some accessories this gun can quickly gain a pound or two. All four accessory rails are metal along with the trigger. The fit and finish is very good on the SG9000 and the plastic quality seems very durable.

Realism: The Umarex Walther SG9000 is licensed by Walther but other then a similarity in the pistol grip it doesn't closely look like any specific Walther product or any specific Tactical shotgun for that matter. It does have a very tactical look and with a few accessories added you will have yourself a very persuasive looking shotgun on your hands.
Supplied by UmarexUSA - Can be purchased from: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Inexpensive versatile BB shotgun.
• Nothing else really like it out there.
• Multiple shooting modes - singe and three shot burst.
• Uses 88 Gram CO2 so less stopping to change CO2.
• Very good FPS readings - above factory claims.
• Very accurate for a BB gun from close up and further out.
• Lots of rail locations for all kinds of accessories and different customizable looks.
• High capacity 40 round internal magazine.
• Totally fun!

Cons:

• The plastic exterior may put off some people looking for a heavier more metal gun.
• 88 Gram CO2 can be a bit pricy, not as cost effective as 12 gram CO2.
• Trigger pull is kind of long.
• You will need to purchase some sort of a sighting system for it as all you have is a rail on top.

Comments:
The Umarex Walther SG9000 is a really fun and very inexpensive CO2 BB shotgun. With its multiple shooting modes you have the option of power and accuracy in single shot mode or to simply blow stuff away in three shot burst mode. The Walther SG9000 is also very customizable allowing you to really make this Tactical BB shotgun your own by decking it out with just about any combination of add ons and accessories you like! I found this gun the most fun to shoot in three shot burst mode using my laser sight and literally knocking down everything I pointed at!

Before I get into my full reviews of the Umarex Walther SG 9000 BB Shotgun and Umarex S&W M&P 45 Air Pistol, I thought I would do a quick Preview so you could get a quick look at both of these fine Umarex products.

A few highlights worth mentioning about each air gun:

• The Walther SG9000 shoots in both single shot and a 3 shot burst that fires all 3 rounds at exactly the same time, in the same manner that an actual shotgun would simultaneously fire all the buck shot.
• The Walther SG9000 is capable of 480 fps and uses an 88gram CO2 cartridge so you can refill the 40 rounds spring fed magazine a multitude of times before needing to replace your CO2.
• The Walther SG9000 does not come with any actual sights so you will need to add either a Red Dot Scope or Laser on to one of the many provided Picatinny rails located on the shotgun.

• The S&W M&P 45 can shoot in both double action and also single action by pulling the rear portion of the slide back to cock the internal hammer allowing for a very light single action trigger.
• The Smith & Wesson M&P 45 has a very nice solid weight to it, I was actually surprised at how hefty it was considering it has a mainly all plastic outer shell, my best guess would be close to 2 pounds. I think it's time to invest in a scale!
• The S&W M&P 45 also has a recessed barrel giving the muzzle the large caliber look of a real 45 auto adding to the realism of this replica gun.

OK, right off the bat the title for this post is a bit dramatic but if it gets me a few extra hits why not!

So I went south across the boarder to pickup a few air guns supplied to me for review by UmarexUSA. Umarex is not comfortable sending airguns to me directly in Canada so I have Umarex send it to a place close to the boarder in Blaine that ships and receives items.

Todays trip I was bringing back a couple air guns - the Umarex SG9000 BB Shotgun and the Umarex S&W M&P 45. Both of which shoot under 500 fps and have an energy value of less then 5.7 Joules which classifies them as Un-Controlled Firearms in Canada. And what does this mean? The short of it is that in Canada we are not allowed "Replica guns" and so there are some Police and Border Guards that believe any airgun that looks like a real gun is a "replica gun" and so it is illegal to own or import into Canada.

It is kind of complicated but we have provision in our Canadian Firearms Act that addresses this issue but as I found out today, not all Border Guards are aware of this. Now I do not want to bad-mouth our Canadian Border Guards, for the most part they are very fair and they are just doing their job to the best of their ability.

Here is a link to the entire Memorandum that addresses this issue if you want to read it all (reference: CBSA Memorandum D19-13-2  pages 8-16)

Here are the parts that are important to my story!

Replica Firearm: 

• A device that resembles a real firearm but cannot fire a projectile, or its projectile cannot cause serious bodily harm.  Replica firearms are prohibited devices (most AEG's and GBB pistols).  Prohibited devices are not the same things as prohibited firearms.

Firearm: 

• A barrelled device firing a projectile able to cause serious bodily harm. For CBSA's purpose, all firearms are separated into either controlled firearms, or un-controlled firearms.

Controlled:  

• A firearm with muzzle velocity above 500 FPS AND muzzle energy above 5.7 Joules.  Serial number, registration, Firearm Possession and Acquisition License (PAL) are required to import / purchase and possess any controlled firearms

Un-Controlled: 

• A firearm with muzzle velocity below 500 FPS OR muzzle energy below 5.7 Joules.  There is no serial number, registration, license or permit required to import / purchase / own such un-controlled firearms

Exception:

• The following goods generally do not meet the definition of prohibited weapon, and thus do not fall under tariff item 9898.00.00. Their misuse may nonetheless be punishable under other laws:
• (a) an air gun or BB/pellet gun that resembles a real make and model of a firearm may not be a replica firearm if it is an “uncontrolled” firearm (see “Uncontrolled” firearms).

Sorry to make you read that but it is imperative to the rest of my story so that you understand that a Metal BB or Pellet gun that shoots under 500 fps with an energy level below 5.7 Joules is in fact an Un-Controlled Firearm or a barrelled device firing a projectile able to cause serious bodily harm and can in fact resemble a real make or model of firearm.

Unfortunately I did not print off Memorandom D19-13-2 (Note to self... Print it off before heading across the boarder to pickup Air guns!). Now last time I had no problems at all bringing my Umarex PPQ across the border, I guess my Border Guard that time was on the up and up?

Well this time I got sent right into the main building for "Question and Answer Time".

They took a look at the air guns and came back and said, "I can't let you keep these airguns because they are Replica guns."

So I said, "They are not Replicas, they are Un-Contorlled Firearms making them in fact not a Replica but an actual Firearm.

So they said, "Our documentation says that any airgun that looks like a Firearm, is a Replica and we do not classify airguns as Firearms".

So I said, "So all the places in Canada selling Replica Airguns are doing so illegally and if so, how are they getting all these guns past you guys?"

We went back and forth on this for about a half an hour and I was not disrespectful to the Border Guard and he also took the time to hear me out. After he realized that I was more then just your average uninformed tourist returning from vacation with an airgun keepsake, he went into the back and returned to tell me he had good news. "You can keep your air guns" he said! He had spoken with another Border Guard who knew more about the Airgun - Replica laws and was set straight on the confusing matter.

Yes it was a bit stressful at the time but I still have all my faith in our Border Guards, they where not in any way rude to me, but keep in mind I was not disrespectful to them either. It kind of makes you wonder how many fully legal airguns get confiscated at the border and more then likely destroyed?

So anyways - the good news is I have two more Umarex products that I will be reviewing very soon. So make sure to checkout the Umarex SG9000 BB Shotgun and the Umarex S&W M&P 45 when I do their upcoming reviews.

I received my Crosman American Classic .177 Multi-pump Bolt Action Pellet Pistol a few days ago and had a bit of time to shoot yesterday. I was extremely impressed with this very inexpensive classic single shot bolt action target pistol. Even using the stock open sights, I shot a group about 1 inch in diameter from a 30 foot out free standing unrested position!

I still prefere my Webley Alecto but then again it is about 5 times more expensive and so it should be a better gun :)

I will be following this up with a full review some time down the road...

Here are some specifications for the Crosman 13177 American Classic:

• .177 pellet
• 495 FPS
• Length: 13.63"
• Weight: 2 pounds
• Underlever pump action
• Single shot - Bolt
• Rifled barrel

Type: Pellet air rifle.
Manufacturer: Baikal.
Model: IZH MP-61.
Materials: Metal & plastic.
Weight: 4.3 pounds.
Barrel: 18.5 inches, metal-rifled.
Propulsion: Spring piston.
Action: Repeater.
Ammunition Type: .177 caliber pellets.
Ammunition Capacity: 5 rounds.
FPS: 490.
Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the IZH MP-61 is a nice light 1.4 pounds and the release stage is also adjustable, you actually need to be careful of accidental shots as the trigger is light enough to go off before you are ready to shoot.
Accuracy: Very good, I was not so sure when first using the IZH-61 with my initial scope and pellet setup but my second open sight test with different pellets yielded a very tight 1 inch group from 30 feet out in a standing unrested position.

Build Quality: This is a no-nonsense gun made Russian style, it is built to be cost effective so there are parts that could be made with metal that are plastic but there isn't anything on this gun that feels cheap or poorly built. Baikal also doesn't cheap out on the plastic as not all plastic is the same. I actually dropped the IZH MP-61 right on the front hooded sight without any adverse effects, cheap plastic would have cracked and broken.
Realism: Since the Baikal IZH-61 is not a replica gun, I can not really compare it to any existing one rifle out there, but it does look very tactical in design, much more so then your standard spring piston air rifle.
Purchased this rifle from: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Inexpensive spring piston rifle.
• Very unique looking air rifle.
• Side pull lever design.
• 5 round magazine/clip.
• Right on the money with FPS.
• Adjustable Stock.
• Adjustable Trigger.
• 11mm dovetail rail mount for scopes.
• Very light weigh and easy to cock.
• Made in Russia

Cons:

• Plastic stock seems to mark up easy - kind of part of the utilitarian look.
• Mechanics takes a bit of getting use to.
• Scope rail mount is a bit short.

Comments:
The Baikal IZH MP-61 is a really nice low cost yet full featured air riffle! You really get a lot of rifle for your money: You get an efficient side lever design with a 5 shot magazines for quick repeat shots, a very light weight and adjustable trigger, an adjustable stock, a rail mount for a scope and one of the more tactical looking air rifles available on the market. The Baikal MP-61 also takes the FPS right up to the limit without going over so no license or PAL is required to own this one in Canada. This air rifle is designed for target shooting but could also be used for small pest control if your marksmanship is good enough to hit the vital kill zones of your prey.

My YouTube Video Review for this Russian made Air rifle:

Buy this rifle in Canada   -   Buy this rifle in the US

Type: Pellet & BB air pistol.

Manufacturer:Anics.

Model:Skif A-3000.

Materials: Plastic (polymer) and metal construction.

Weight: 1.6 pounds.

Barrel: 5 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, single & double action.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber Pellets & 4.5mm Steel BB's

Ammunition Capacity: 28 shot magazine.

FPS: 400-500.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Anics Skif A-3000 in single action is fairly good and short, not light but far from heavy. When shooting in double action mode, it does get significantly heavier do to the 28 round rotary magazine friction. Overall it is fairly smooth in double action mode but once in a while you can hit a bit of a sticky spot in the rotation. With that said I was expecting it to be worse and found it usable for me.

Accuracy: I shot this air pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position in single action mode and it performed well getting a very respectable 1.5 inch grouping pretty much right on the target. The sights can be adjusted for windage and elevation if your aim is not centered, I had to adjust mine up almost 4-5 inches from the factory settings. With my Chrony Chronograph testing using 7 grain lead pellets I got right up into the low 400fps (8 shot average of 417 fps) and would expect BB's to shoot a bit faster.

Build Quality: The Skiff A-3000 uses a metal slide and polymer frame, there are also lots of metal parts used in the gun like the barrel, slide catch, safety, hammer and sights. Even though it only has a claimed weight of about 1.6 pounds, it feels heavier in the hand. The mechanics seem solid and well designed.

Realism: The Anics Skif A-3000 looks a bit like a mix between a Glock and a Walther P series semi auto hand gun but it is very unique looking. The Skif A-3000 looks the part of a real gun for sure, but exactly which gun is hard to say!

Purchased from: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Good overall construction with gun like parts and assembly.
• Very solid feeling gun with an ultra modern look.
• Rifled barrel.
• Good accuracy and very good power.
• High capacity 28 round magazine.
• Can shoot both pellets and BB's.
• Double and single action trigger.
• Very unique gun, not a lot around here in North America.
• Fully adjustable rear sight for windage and elevation.

Cons:

• Heavy trigger pull in double action mode, but still usable.
• Red barrel on this one, not necessary in North American market.
• Rear sight had to be adjured way up on my Skif A-3000.

Comments:

The Anics Skif A-3000 is a very cool gun, nothing looks or works exactly the same with its 28 round pellet loading rotary magazine and ultra modern looks. Sure it has a heavy double action trigger and it's always nice to have blowback but on the other hand the tradeoff is more power and a super high capacity magazine. Combine that with a fully adjustable rear sight, rifled barrel, single and double action trigger and the ability to shoot both pellets and BB's and you have a real winner here.

Type: Pellet air pistol.

Manufacturer: UmarexUSA.

Model: Walther CPSport.

Materials: Plastic (polymer) and metal construction.

Weight: 1.3 pounds.

Barrel: 3.3 inches, metal rifled.

Propulsion: CO2 x 1.

Action: Semi auto, double action only.

Ammunition Type: .177 caliber Pellets

Ammunition Capacity: 8 shot rotary magazine.

FPS: 360.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Walther CPSport is in the mid range with most of the effort at the beginning and middle stages, it does have a predictable release point making it easy to put pellets on target. The CPSport definitely has a lighter trigger then the Umarex Walther PPQ I reviewed earlier.

Accuracy: I shot this air pistol at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position, and it performed well getting an decent 2 inch grouping just to the left and a bit high on the target. The sights can be adjusted for windage if your aim is off to one side or the other. With Chrony Chronograph testing using 6.9 grain lead pellets I got pretty close to the factory claim of 360fps with an average 8 shot fps of 356.

Build Quality: This is an almost all external polymer air gun with a good deal of metal components on the inside giving the Walther CPSport a decent overall weight and heft. It's worth mentioning that the Walther CPSport has a full size drop out magazine for holding the CO2 cartridge that gives the air gun some additional weight and functionality. The fit and finish is very good on the CPSport and the plastic quality seems very durable.

Realism: The Umarex Walther CPSport is licensed by Walther and is loosely based around the Walther P99. The frame is very similar to the P99 but the slide is not nearly as accurate. If you want to step up to a closer replica of the Walther P99, then you may want to take a look at the Umarex CP99 Pellet pistol.

Purchased this gun in: The Replica Airguns Store.

Pros:

• Very reasonable price for a well German made full featured airgun.

• Can shoot BB's with the Umarex rotary BB magazine.

• Rifled barrel.

• Easy to use white sights adjustable for windage.

• Slide catch and safety and magazine are fully functional.

• Nice full size drop out CO2 magazine.

• Good combination of power, accuracy and CO2 efficiency (I got about 100 shots from a CO2)!

• Even though there is a lot of plastic on the outside, there is a lot of metal on the inside giving this airgun some decent weight and heft.

• An excellent option for the Umarex CP99 customer on a budget.

Cons:

• The plastic exterior may put off some customers looking for metal guns.

• The slide could have more detail work on it to make this gun a bit more believable.

• The small .177 caliber viewable barrel port is a bit of a giveaway in terms of realism but may help a bit with fps.

Comments:

The Umarex Walther CPSport Pellet air pistol is a great combination of quality vs price. Even though this gun uses a lot of plastic in the build it still performed flawlessly and looks the part, I did not have a single misfire out of all the 100 shots I took! All the mechanical parts of this gun work smoothly making for a very enjoyable and accurate gun to shoot, giving the shooter the confidence that this gun will work exactly a it is intended to do.

The Webley Alecto (AKA: Zoraki HP-01) may not fit in exactly as a "Replica" Airgun, although it does resemble a bloated Dessert Eagle! But it is an Airgun worthy of spending some time reviewing an this is now my third Vimeo Video review for the Webley Alecto. My first Video Review was a Table Top Review where I covered most of the Webley's basic operation. My second Vimeo Video was a Chronograph Test to see what my Webley Alecto could do performance wise for FPS.

I really wanted to do a video of this gun just shooting because that's what it does best, put lead down range very accurately! So I setup three cameras to capture it all from just about every angle I could think of and I set up 30 feet away from my target and shot 5 rounds in a rested position using a Red Dot Scope. The results where not surprising - pretty close to a 1/2 inch grouping!

If you're looking for a compact, hard hitting, accurate target or small pest control Air gun then look no further, the Webley Alecto has the goods!

Recently I reviewed the Umarex Walther PPQ, a new airgun just released by Umarex. The PPQ kind of reminds me of the CPSPort in many ways, but the PPQ is a lower cost version of the CPSport. I think if you have a bit extra money to put into an airgun, go with the Umarex Walther CPSport CO2 Pellet Pistol as you get a much lighter and smoother trigger along with better build quality and a full size drop out CO2 magazine which is a very nice touch.

Look forward to my upcoming full review for this nice Walther Replica Air Pistol, but for now enjoy some photos...

We have another very interesting Pre-sale item out of Italy again, but this time from Kimar. A while back in 2000-2001, Kimar and Crosman teamed up to make a really nice Beretta 92FS Styled Replica Airgun called the CK92. It basically used a bunch of Crosman internal parts but the bulk of the gun was manufactured in the Kimar (Armi Chiappa) factory.

This gun was not produced after 2001 and so has only been available as a used gun to airgun collectors, that is until now. Somehow a limited amount of these guns where rediscovered (perhaps a time machine was involved?) and we have gotten our hands on some arriving in mid July. Since these CK92's have been sitting around for a while they have all been re-tested and inspected and are ready for sale.

This is an amazing opportunity for any Airgun collector looking to get a brand new Crosman - Kimar CK92. And we even have a few arriving with the Chrome finish - even more rare!

But don't let me stop you if you're not an avid airgun collector, we are pricing these all metal pellet shooting Beretta 92FS replicas to sell fast at our pre-sale pricing of only $119 and $129 respectively. Keep in mind this price will go up $20 once they arrive in our warehouse, if we have any left that is...

Here are some specifications to keep you drooling till they come in:

• .177 cal. Pellets
• 8 Round magazine
• CO2 Powered
• 394 fps
• 2.6 Pounds
• 8.4 Inches long
• Single and double action
• Fully adjustable rear sight
• All metal design
• Made in Italy
• Beretta 92FS Replica
• Available in Black and Chrome
• A real collectors item!

In my recent acquisition of guns from my friend, I also procured a customized Crosman 2240 .22 caliber CO2 bolt action air pistol. It came customized with a new RJ Machine bolt, longer barrel and wood grips.

All I need to add is a nice Red Dot or low powered pistol scope and this classic CO2 air pistol will make a really nice target shooter.
