Review for model:

The heaviest and most expensive spring-powered replica. Metal slide and trigger, metal firing safety, metal trigger lock. Felt great in the hand, delivered quite strong and accurate shots for a springer. After firing the last BB, the slide stayed in the rear position, which added realism. Really nice pistol, unfortunately it did not last and broke after a few weeks. The plastic firing pin cover, which is screwed to the metal slide, broke off. What a shame that this element isn't metal or cast as part of the slide. Rating is raised thanks to fast and efficient warranty claim handling.

A very nice and pleasant pistol, I got it for under 200 PLN. I recommend it!!

For this price, the workmanship and weight of the pistol are great. You can practice before shooting with live ammo at the range. The drawback is just like the real counterpart, the rear window of the slide cracked and the "firing pin" came out. Luckily, not into the eyes as in the real version. Repair is not cost-effective at this airgun’s price. Still serves well for dry-fire training.

After getting to know the technical side of this pistol and thoroughly lubricating the slide rails, cylinder, piston rings, and not releasing the slide release because the plastic cylinder nozzle tends to break, I can say that I am very satisfied with this model of pistol ;) I have fired 26,000 BBs from 0.12g to 0.28g from various brands, and the pistol shows no significant signs of wear, but only thanks to thorough lubrication with silicone grease and oil ;) Super spring model PPQ HME ;)

It's hard for me to judge this replica because it broke on the first day; the pin fell out and the slide lock loosened, so I returned it under warranty and got my money back because it couldn't be repaired. What I can say is that the replica is heavy, fits well in the hand, and gives the impression of being solid, but it's not the highest build quality. My next choice was a different model of the Walther PPQ pistol, this time a plastic + metal version.

Good pistol, thanks to the fact that it's a replica, it's heavy and very accurate (for ASG). I practice accuracy with it between visits to the sports shooting range. Also provides fun on trips to the forest :) I recommend using heavier BBs like 0.25g - they are more accurate, and the gun will last longer. Pros: mostly metal construction, spring powered so no need for CO2 cartridges. Accurate, replica of a real firearm. Cons: plastic cylinder, piston, and BB guide (in other pistols these parts were the first to fail)
