Power Source: CO2

Trigger Pull: The trigger offers a notably light pull and smooth release.

Accuracy: Impressively accurate, despite the substantial blowback recoil.

Build Quality: The construction quality is outstanding, featuring substantial metal components, satisfying heft, and meticulous craftsmanship. The majority of the gun is metal, aside from parts of the outer receiver and the grips.

Realism: The appearance and feel are remarkably similar to a real firearm. The main distinctions are its use of 4.5mm BBs and a slightly higher proportion of plastic compared to similar full-metal guns.

Pros:

  • A highly realistic replica of the Mini UZI in an airgun format.
  • Key areas of the gun are made of metal for authenticity and durability.
  • Ideal for training purposes, replicating the functionality of a real Mini UZI.
  • The blowback action is exceptionally strong, even more so than a rimfire .22 caliber gun, adding to the realistic shooting experience.
  • Simple to field-strip for maintenance and cleaning.
  • Features a potent full-auto firing capability.
  • Comes with adjustable sighting for improved accuracy.
  • Equipped with a highly functional metal folding stock.

Cons:

  • Rapid consumption of CO2.
  • The slide bolt doesn’t remain open when the magazine is depleted, leading to unnecessary CO2 usage.
  • Some external parts are plastic; a full metal construction would have enhanced realism.

Comments:

This blowback BB gun stands out for its quality. Although advertised as all-metal on various websites, it incorporates some plastic components, mainly in less wear-prone areas. The KWC Mini UZI closely mimics the real Mini UZI, down to many authentic markings. A standout feature is its intense blowback recoil, which initially can be surprising and is arguably more potent than that of a rimfire .22 caliber firearm.

Truly awesome for the price, great accuracy, intense full auto!

When I purchased the profile online said semi auto blowback. Well...mine is also full auto which is awesome! I did not have to mod mine. It is way louder than I expected it to be and I've been shooting airguns all my life. It really has some recoiling effect, way more than most bb guns with blowbak. I also have the umarex mp40 and this one is almost as awesome as that one. It shoots pretty accurately less than 2 inch groups, great trigger also. Nice weight, peep sights, adjustable front sight (elevation). You get about 2 mags per co2 with this it seems. The folding stock is also functional and for me its just the right length. Full auto is insane. I didn't expect it to be as awesome as it is in that regard, and I have shot full auto bb guns before. This one is seriously just something else. One small quarrel I have with it is that the entire handle, grips and trigger guard are plastic. If you drop this there is a realistic possibility of severely cracking the handle or breaking the trigger guard. I'm generally one to take good care of my airguns, so I probably won't drop it. Much of the rest is metal though which is a plus. But honestly I'm almost willing to overlook this because of how awesome it is to shoot. My only other small complaint is that the slide won't lock on the last shot so if you are in full auto it will keep shooting even with no bb's which is kind of annoying since you don't know when it's out. But overall it's a great gun at this price. If you aren't sure just go for it. Just be careful with it, and you'll find it awesome to shoot. Most full auto guns that do have better construction than this tend to cost up to a hundred bucks or more than this model. I've heard a rumor that you can buy aftermarket parts for this that are steel or aluminum to replace the external plastic parts. This is most certainly something I am going to look into asap. Anyway, great gun overall - five stars for accuracy and how fun it is to shoot and for being a realistic replica.
