I make short films. Is this going to look like a gun in an adult man's hands? Previous Airsoft guns I have bought have been very small.

not really its all plastic unless u can add paint that looks like brushed steel

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: I found with this gun the weight is very light and therefor if you use this piece in a film the talent must carry right to make it feel more real. Also avoid shots that look down and into the barrel, I'm sure you can figure out a few reasons.

My son has pretty much put this thing thru the ringer...he plays airsoft with his friends, used it for halloween, rolls it ina ball and never puts it away in the bag...but I just put it away for him last week and it is still in great shape....

Any AirSoft bbs I've seen (kid across the way has one, and I constantly find the bbs in my yard) appear to be of larger diameter than metal bbs. Besides, I wonder if the soft texture of Airsoft bbs might foul a bb gun.

Agree with others. We bought 7 different cheap pistols most made of metal. This is the only one still working. Its Plastic , durable,& fun for airsoft wars with kids ( all under 15 yrs old) it doesn't hurt as bad as higher fps. Also my son says the grip on this gun is Serrated/notched which makes it more stable for pulling slide fast and not losing your grip from sweaty hands. Great choice of gun for price! Good luck.

Heh. I've thought about buying and carrying a pistol but haven't yet. Can't say it'll carry the one you mention, but it should be plenty big for a compact pistol.

They sent me an email cause I reviewed it, so here I am... Everyone else who answered before me pretty much summed it up. It's just for show, as is the case with all airsoft pistols, though most semi-automatic replicas have a hammer that can be cocked and released by pulling the trigger. Keep in mind, however, that it would probably be impractical on this particular gun because of the all-metal construction and the relative size of the gun (if the hammer moved, it might not look as realistic as it does because of the added space needed for the extra parts and such).

It's significantly small,most useful on a SMG-type firearm.On an AR-style rifle it looks extremely small.

I honestly don't know. Most airsoft guns have a bright orange tip so it identifies them as airsoft guns and not real guns.

This is definitely NOT an airsoft pistol. It is an authentic replica of a colt automatic pistol that fires BB's which can cause injury or even death.

Yes, as long as you have some way of making the orange on the end not show up. Also i have a tip for you if you want to make a movie. Tape 1 single cap with the primer inward on the front of your airsoft or bb gun. When the gun is cocked and ready to fire, when the bb comes out and will ignite the cap, making a realistic look (not sound that youll have to edit in) This gun would be great for a movie as long as you're careful where you film. (ps, post your movie on youtube with the name "Vietnam" because this is a vietnam era gun. Also I want to see the finished product as a fellow movie maker.)

It's a small size, but not small enough to fit in your hand. look this one up, Umarex 2254804 XBG Multi-Shot CO2 Power .177-Caliber Air Pistol, Black Matte Finish. Good reviews and it sure is the smallest I have ever seen! Hope this helps.

The kids here are ages 8 to 15 , the youngest said if it hits you in the arm from close up it hurts , if it hits you in neck from close you'll want to quit game. All other shots you notice but not enough to stop playing. (The 8 year old is very small child.) All kids agree that it is one of the best airsoft pistols we own. Good luck. :-)

It's so cheap because this attachment is mainly intended for airsoft use. For the price, hell I'd just buy one and test it out. If it works then you just got yourself quite the steal, if not, then no harm no foul.Personally, this is a very solid sight. It's all metal and has survived several drops on my AR replica. I believe it will hold up.

You have the mag wound up too tight. Dont use WD40 because that will make more issues than it will solve. Silicone lubricants are the best for airsoft guns, but your issue is that there is too much tension on the mag. Always clear the mag out with the tab on top when you are done playing so you dont wear out the springs inside, and only use as much tension as you need to when turning the feeding gear. I have fully dismantled this gun and put it back together, and it isnt so complicated that you need a tech to do it for you. Also low quality BBs will make issues for you. I reccommend .12 for indoors and .20 for outdoors, find a name brand BB manufacturer it will save you money in the long run. You have the mag wound up too tight.

I would say they are ment for adults. For kids try smith and Wesson mini magnums they are youth sized and adjustable

The spring and plunger in this have to be small enough to fit in the handle of the pistol, so it is not as powerful as spring pistols modeled on semi automatic pistols. I don't have a way to measure it, but I'd guess around 100 FPS. I would only use this against people also carrying similarly low-powered airsoft guns.

I would recommend that you get a pistol first then upgrade to something like this i would know because i am a aisoft player and the best first airsoft gun is a pistol
