Trigger Pull: The Sig Sauer X-Five P226 exhibits a trigger pull that aligns with the characteristics of a genuine automatic pistol. In single-action mode, it is notably light and brief, complemented by the blowback action that re-cocks the hammer after each shot.

Accuracy: Remarkably precise for a BB shooter, I achieved approximately a 1-inch grouping from a freestanding position 20 feet away, utilizing this BB shooter equipped with a red dot. Testing the Cybergun Sig Sauer P226 Open version with my Chrony Chronograph revealed an 8-shot average of 343 FPS, surpassing the listed 300 FPS rating on the box.

Build Quality: Exceptional build quality defines the Cybergun Sig Sauer X-Five P226. Featuring an almost entirely metal construction, the gun carries substantial weight, and its craftsmanship is of high caliber.

Realism: The Cybergun Sig Sauer X-Five P226 closely emulates the appearance, weight, feel, and action of the authentic Sig Sauer X-Five P226. Every aspect of this gun contributes to a genuine feel, making it an ideal choice for those new to the sport as a training tool or for seasoned semi-auto shooters looking to refine their skills in situations where access to a gun range is limited.

Pros:

• All metal construction - extremely good weight and solid feeling gun. As real as you can get in an airgun.
• Heavy blowback action adds to the realism
• Very accurate Sig Sauer replica
• Really good accuracy for a BB gun (red dot helps)
• Awesome training gun
• Both SA & DA with excellent pull, very smooth and light
• Field strips just like the real Sig Sauer X-Five P226
• Mine came in with much higher FPS than claimed
• Carries Sig Sauer licensed trademarks
• For only $10 more you get the sight rail, compensator and rear adjustable sight

Cons:

• Sacrifices some FPS and shots per CO2 because of the heavy blowback but worth it
• A bit hard to load up
• Cannot field strip without taking off the sight rail?

Comments:
This Cybergun BB pistol is styled after many modern blowback airsoft pistols, meaning it functions very similarly to the real steel. It is a hefty gun made almost entirely from metal and has a very snappy blowback action which adds to its shooting realism. Even the magazine looks and feels like a real 9mm magazine with similar weight and dimensions. The Cybergun Sig Sauer X-Five Open version shoots even more accurately than the non-sight rail version because of the addition of a Red Dot scope helping the accuracy! Both the regular version of the Sig Sauer X-Five P226 and this "Open" version are absolutely great air pistols, but for the extra $10 price tag you get some really nice additions to this pistol including an adjustable rear sight.
