Umarex MP 5 (.177 bb repeater)

I bought this thing last night as a birthday gift for my nephew.  I loaded it up just to make sure it words etc, and that's where I messed up at!  Due to the shear fun factor of this thing, I'm keeping this one, and he's getting another one 

I easily give this thing 5/5 stars, and would definitely recommend to a friend.  I paid $96 at my local Walmart.  It shoots 400 FPS, so obviously you're not hunting anything with it, but this thing may very well redefine plinking.  I set up 6 cans at about 20 feet, and with the 40 shot magazine, went to town.  Before I knew it, I was about 8 magazines and 5 Co2 bottles into it. 

It's a replica of the real deal, even down to the weld marks.  Umarex really came through on this airgun!  The muzzle flash reducer and front handle are removable as well.  It's a blowback, and the bolt is funtional.  It is semi auto, andn according to YouTube and google, it is impossible to make it full auto.    Only down fall to it is that it's made of mostly plastic, but a couple coats of flat black took care of the "plastic/shiny" look it originally had.  It is all metal where it counts though.  (inner workings, trigger, etc)  The strap did not come with it......  Once again, I would easily recommend this AG!  Even if it wasn't a replica, (which is totally awesome) I would still recommend due to shear plinking fun factor alone!  It's really accurate up to 20-25 feet as well.  So if any of you are like me, and have a child or family member that's in need of a birthday gift, well, here it is!

Too funny ! In a childhood moment, I just bought a Umarex Steel Storm for myself.
Out of all the automatic guns I Narrowed it down to the MP5 & Storm but the Storms price won out over the MP5's better looks. Both get great reviews. Reading them was fun as well. At least I don't have to worry about my Mom & Dad finding out.
A Droz at 1/3 the price.
Guess I'm still a kid at 55.
