Walther Black Kit PPK S CO2 Air gun

Model: Walther PPK/S (Black)
Materials: Mostly metal with some plastic parts
Weight: 1.2 pounds
Barrel: 3.5 inches, metal non-rifled

Action: Semi-auto, blowback, single-action
Ammunition Type: 4.5mm BBs

Trigger Mechanics: The trigger on this firearm is exceptionally light, thanks to its authentic blowback action which cocks the hammer after each shot.

Shooting Accuracy: As a BB pistol with a short, non-rifled barrel, it performs quite well, grouping most BBs within a 2-inch radius at a distance of 20 feet, though there are occasional outliers.

Manufacturing Quality: The gun is largely made of metal, excluding components like the pistol grips, safety lever, magazine, and outer barrel shroud. It boasts impressive detailing, and the overall fit and finish are commendable.

Authenticity: This model is a replica of the Walther PPK/S, famously featured in the 007 James Bond movies. It bears official Walther trademarks and closely resembles the real PPK/S, except for the extended handle and magazine release. The BB version's handle is slightly elongated, and the oversized CO2-piercing screw detracts from its authenticity. However, modifying the screw can enhance its realism.

Pros:

• Accurate replication of the Walther PPK/S.
• Suitable as a training tool due to its resemblance in size, weight, and feel to the actual Walther PPK/S.
• Enjoyable shooting experience due to the blowback action and light trigger pull.
• Respectable accuracy for a short-barreled BB pistol.
• Affordable yet well-crafted, manufactured in Japan.

Cons:

• Consumes CO2 at a high rate.
• Relatively low velocity at 295 FPS.
• The magazine is plastic, and the safety lever seems misplaced.
• The CO2-piercing screw is aesthetically unappealing and affects the gun's appearance.

Comments:

I regard the Umarex Walther PPK/S BB pistol as an essential collector's item. It's an excellent choice for those who may not be avid airgun enthusiasts but are fans of the iconic firearm used by James Bond in the early 007 films. The Umarex PPK is a well-made, fun-to-shoot model at a budget-friendly price, offering decent accuracy.
