    If you want realism mate, go for a blowback pistol.
    Some of my favourite guns in. You collection, Umarex Beretta 92fs - Colt Custom 1911 - Walther Lever Action - TM Hi-Capa Custom Build Project - Colt SAA .45 & many more..

    ...or if you fancy something worth having, try a classic such as the FWB 65.

    Collecting Webleys can be a slippery slope, so many variations and once you buy one you need more!

    I love my pistols.

    I don't get out in the field much these days as the legs ain't what they were. Instead I shoot targets in the garage. Tried the rifles but that's like shooting fish in a barrel. Pistols are much more challenging over the short ranges!

    Don't have anything fancy, just a Gamo Compact and a Weihrauch HW40 but have hours of fun with them. I have a couple of CO2 replicas too but they don't get the use as they aren't that accurate compared with the other two.

    Get yourself a pistol!

    Agreed. You'll start with one in say, .22. Then wonder what the .177 version is like. But you'll end up buying a different .177 model coz there's none for sale, then you'll wonder what that's like in .22...Don't ask me how I know!

    Get yourself a Tempest and Alecto to start, with Webleys
    Consider an Cometa Indian and of course Weihrauch
    But don't disregard Co2 repeaters, some with blowback etc. they're loads of fun!
