    Cheers for input guys.
    Bit the bullet and got one after a quick once over in the shop. My initial thoughts:

    Heavy: love it, always expected air-pistols to be light and plastic feeling!!!
    Blowback: real good kick.
    Magazine: very easy to load, release is very quick and easy.
    CO2: in the back of pistol handle, again, very easy to change out.

    Got some match pellets but not had chance yet to put it to the aim test. The few shots I have had seem to fire low but not adjusted sights or even tried properly yet. Overall, very impressed!

    Been having a bit more time with the Sig Sauer X5. Loving it the more I use it.
    Using RWS R10 Match pellets.
    Feels a great quality pistol, well put together and so easy to use. So glad I did some homework and actually went and viewed/tried before buying.
    Just been doing some back garden plinking more than anything but gonna get some targets and see what it's like for accuracy/aiming, will let you know!

    Following this with interest.

    For me the key thing, assuming it doesn’t continually jam, break, or fall apart, is does it shoot a reasonably decent group and can the sights be adjusted to put that group where it is aimed?
