Let’s get the negative out of the way first so we can end positive, because overall, it’s a great replica BB pistol! I would prefer an Allen screw instead of the thumb screw for the C02 just not to always have that thing sticking out the bottom, but at least it has a spring that keeps it folded up. The grips have a little bit of a cheap feel/look but not a deal breaker, I would not let that stop me from owning or enjoying it. I wonder how the original firearm grips felt, I bet they felt cheap too at the time. Its size is about the same as a Ruger LC380 but a little thicker and a 1/2 inch longer, for those that a familiar with them. OK now for the good stuff, I like the action a lot, the blow-back is good. It seems good and solid. The magazine is a full drop out mag that holds both C02 and BBs. From about 10+ yards I shot six mags and could not miss a soda can, and my seven-year-old granddaughter hit it almost 50% of the time when she shot two mags. The trigger was a little hard for her and she didn't like that. One quirk, if you point the barrel down after pulling the trigger though the first stage a BB may roll out of the barrel, but it will still fire a BB every time so if it does not roll out and you re-pull the trigger you will shoot two BB’s. One very nice thing is the BB follower has a catch, so you don't have to hold it while loading BBs into it. I think it is a nice pistol overall and definitely think it was a steal for the $69 dollars I spent on it and even worth up to $100 easily. If I see them on sale for $69 I will get another, It is a fun pistol that my first impression of is “NICE”. I haven’t tried to shoot paper with it yet but think it will be very acceptable and good as good as any BB pistol.
