A great pistol both due to its almost faithful (almost because the trigger action is a bit different, the blowback is much weaker, and the magazine is different) reproduction of the original and its workmanship. Tested with 0.25g BBs: 10-15 m - high accuracy, allowing you to practice both the aiming process and grouping of hits without the need for hop-up adjustment 20m - requires slight hop-up adjustment and after that, there are no problems with grouping and accuracy. Magazine handling is average - an extra tool is needed, screwing it in is inconvenient, and there is no easy access for loading BBs, but it’s manageable ;) Despite the description of not having any adapters for red dots, my version came with 4 in the set, plus a tool and screws. After testing with 300 BBs: - no jams, although there were a few "blank" shots without the BB leaving the barrel - 4-5 magazines per capsule - the shot is as loud as a popping balloon – not bothersome outdoors, quite loud indoors, but not so loud that you’d need hearing protection ;) - noticeable blow-back, although much weaker than in the original WARNING: if bought for "home" training, e.g., before a license, you can’t use it with the Mantis X3 system – it doesn’t fit on the rail. In this case, it's better to choose model 2.6508 (although this one has a different trigger action and the slide isn’t removable except by punching out pins), because Mantis fits the rail on that one without any problem.
