Review for model:

The Heckler & Koch VP9 4.5 mm - black airgun is a well and solidly made replica. It is very good for recreational shooting as well as training to get used to handling firearms. As previously mentioned, the drawback is accuracy, but as a first airgun, for example, it is good. I recommend it.

Very nicely made airgun, which is a licensed replica. Perfect for recreational shooting. It’s not the most accurate, but it can provide real pleasure in handling a weapon. Despite the short slide stroke, the blow-back adds realism by imitating recoil in a firearm.

I am very satisfied, especially since this model is my first with a real BLOW-BACK system. Sport shooting has always been relaxing for me, but thanks to this model I finally feel confident that the manufacturer really paid attention to the details. Thank you very much and I highly recommend it.

As for accuracy. I sanded the front sight and the rear sight, sprayed them with lacquer and it’s great. The air rifle is reliable. I’ve had it for 2 years. It’s fired a lot of steel... over 10,000 shots and no wear at all. Only the holster worn it slightly.

The VP9 is not excessively accurate (pulls left and down), but the craftsmanship and the great fun of shooting make up for this small inconvenience ;) The blowback kicks as it should, and after shooting the last pellet, the slide locks back, plus the integrated magazine for CO2 and pellets pops out very satisfyingly. The pistol is decently powerful - from 8 meters it leaves noticeable dents in a steel cone pellet trap.

I recommend!

Great appearance, the magazine with integrated CO2 cartridge grip gives a sense of realism. The downside is the fake safety indicator - it's a pity the manufacturer ignored this detail. Blowback is OK, the strongest of all my plinking pistols :-) The safety in the trigger is not very convenient - I assume it just didn't fit my finger and won't bother anyone else.

A replica just like the real thing. I recommend it.

Very nice pistol, the only downside is accuracy. From what I see, everyone has this issue, so it is a flaw. With mine, right after purchase, the BBs jammed in the magazine... WD-40 solved the problem. Nice, there's even some recoil when shooting. It makes an impression, but after a few magazines, the accuracy starts to bother my son.

This is one of my best purchases. Precise workmanship. The combined magazine adds realism to weapon handling. Handy button to remove the magazine. The only downside is the lack of a dedicated case for this pistol in the set.

Fantastic appearance. Precise workmanship. Practical magazine (pellet and CO2 cartridge in one). You can fire four magazines out of one CO2 cartridge. As for accuracy, it’s nothing special, but I definitely recommend it as a weekend ‘can shooter’.

Awesome BB pistol. Good fps with a great blowback action. Shoots quite straight and makes good groupings on 14x14cm target from 6m. Good Umarex quality. Would buy it again - if I had to. :)

Perfect craftsmanship. The weight is almost like the original. Great heavy metal magazine. Very realistic handling. You can even shoot from the reset. Three magazines with strong blowback. Later, it starts to lose power, and the slide may not stay in the rear position after the last shot. I recommend it mainly for dynamic shooting.
